the guy with balloons in his cube

It's my birthday and I'm the guy with balloons in my cube. I share a floor with a very festive department and I commented to my coworkers a while back that I hope I get balloons like that one day. What did they do? They got me balloons for all the world to see. They also got me a card, donuts, cake, and even money. I commented to my lunch buddy how much I like being recognized and she responded by saying that as long as we work together she'll always care about me. How nice! I'm a lucky guy. I'm feeling the love at work today. I've never had this experience at work before. It's nice.

alert the rotc because my guy's a trooper

It's no secret we've been getting a lot of snow and low temperatures in Michigan, but it feels even more overwhelming when you're a little dachshund who has a much harder time coping with the cold. Still, he's quite noble about it all and does what he needs to do without wasting anyone's time. He occasionally needs to be carried inside when it gets to be too much for him, but he never complains. At most he will just look up at you with that ready-to-be-carried-in look. My little guy's a trooper. Imagine going out in this stuff in your bare feet and no jacket. Bless.

oh to be loved

Upon returning a few minutes ago from my haircut, I discovered somebody stole my slipper and took it to bed with him. What a lovely way to be told you were missed.

have a warm and dry new year

Happy New Year! And what a snowy one it's been so far. I don't know how much we've already got on the ground, but it's still coming down and there's a winter storm warning. No problem for Nicky dog and I--we were planning on staying home anyway. I hope your 2008 is the best! <3
