Little Passive Agressive FUN on a Friday!

This BOLD note is taped to the inside and outside of the women's bathroom door in my office.  Mind you, this particular bathroom only allows for 1 person to be in it at a time, so I'm not sure why someone feels the need to post this directive....have there been instances where people have kept the door open while they avail themselves of the facilities?  In my 12+ years here at Monster I have never once happened upon that particular door open, with or without someone in it.  And it's in a remote part of the building near no one's desk, so not sure who's life would be affected by an open bathroom door, 

Anyway, it's a Friday before Labor Day, the rest of the universe (aka, a 10 mile radius of my present location) has already started their long weekend.  But because I foolishly chose a career in sales, and it is the last day of the month, I am here to the bitter end.

As you can see, I am using my time, and my sharpie, wisely.

A TALE OF SURVIVAL

Driving back from VT this summer Tom and I decided that it would be nice to take a scenic route back vs. the usual highways that lack the charm of a country road.  If you are married and value your commitment to your spouse, might I STRONGLY suggest that you never do this. 

It all started out fine enough, we did, in the early part of the trip, comment to each other more than once what a great idea this was…look how pretty the river/trees/villages are, etc.  THEN, we got into an ugly part of NH and THEN, the road my GPS INSISTED we take was closed due to a bridge out…that’s when it turned bad.  Tom and I have always had different driving styles – I am a “natural” while Tom is not.  Anyway, I won’t get into the gory details, we ultimately got home in an efficient 6 hours.

There was a bright spot in our trip however, when the GPS landed us here:

No, this won’t be a dramatic tale of growth and redemption, it some pictures of my dogs.

It's personal.
