i've had this theory for a number of years that air-conditioning makes people think that unreasonable temperatures are good. meaning, people set their air-conditioner to be colder than they'd allow there house to be during the winter. that makes NO sense. i once worked in an office that was so cold i felt like i was sitting in a walk-in fridge. it was sooo unpleasant. i hate waking up and having to decide if go in normal summer clothes or in layers. i don't want to have to wear sox in the summer. or a frickin sweater for crying out loud! i was snooping around our office yesterday and discovered evidence that confirmed that it is in fact colder than the winter time. that's stupid. its summer i shouldn't be cold.
i had a really super fun time yesterday with joanna and sarah. sarah and joanna. its amazing because i feel like i've known them for years, but i haven't. well like, i've known sarah since i was 16, but i didn't KNOW her. so that doesn't count in the same way. girls, i have to tell you... you know how i was saying the only thing i can do is expect random things? ya. happened again. but its ok, i was expecting that. anyways, they were saying i'm very vague sometimes, and i like that. i do it intentionally. i also fear that i sometimes things come out in fragments like the whole rustle thing. inspite my anxiety, i also felt reassured after the meeting, but i guess i didn't express that. although, maybe i didn't feel reassured until i had time to digest everything i'd heard. so i'm sorry if i'm sometimes a walking contradiction. a lot of the time i feel more than one way – something which is obviously confusing.
anyway, last night with j&s (s&j) we had milkshakes. then i had milkshakes with beckie tonight. MMMmmmmm. yummy. i inherted a drink mixer thing from the forbes', and it makes a kickass milkshake. i was craving one all day at work. i actually had one before my dinner.
so what am i thankful for today? accountability.
auf wiedersehen (for my austrian friend).
it's gonna be okay, cause i'm okay with me.

Lesley, I had a "really super fun time" too. Thanks for the great 'shakes and the great company.
hahahaha... walking contradiction... we are so cut from the same cloth. both extremes at once, baby!

edelweiss, edelweiss
every morning you greet me
small and white, clean and bright
you look happy to meet me
Les, if you don't like it being about 100 degrees outside and then going into buildings where the A/C is cranked down to 60, don't come to Louisiana. It's awful down here. I feel the same way as you. I hate having to wear clothes that make me hot and uncomfortable outside just because i know i'm going to a place where they'll have A/C. The worst place down here is at church. Every church seems to do it. Someone gave me a reason for it the other day though. They said they have to keep the A/C low so people won't fall asleep. It's sad to me that they have to use cold air to keep us up instead of rousing messages and rocking worship. I guess it's just a thing of "the South".

i can kind of understand the cold work place thing. in my workplace they keep it comfortable for the nurses because we have to wear a few layers...and if the patients are cold we give then a warm blanket.
maybe you should ask for warm blankets at work?
you know i am bored when i check you blog at work. not saying that your blog is boring...it is the most entertaining!
i totally agree joel. maybe they should find some ways to spice up their service or make it more relevant. uh-oh i feel a rant coming on....
melissa you're funny. i love you :)
