Oh where to begin... today was my first day at my fancy new job. Had to wake up early to go to the mall to buy clothes so I wouldn't have to wear the same thing! Ended up working out and I got some pretty swell deals. I met about a thousand people (even though there are only 3 people working in my office) including the people at the Boer Goat place across the hall...not quite sure what they do over there. Besides having awesome bosses (I would have to consider all 3 of them my bosses), I also have an office. Yes you heard me right, my very own office. Not a cubicle, not a desk in a room full of numerous desks, but a room with one desk and a door that can close me off from the rest of the world. Not that I would want that by any means! My desk even has a computer and a phone. Yes Ashlyn, I am "fancy huh". Here pretty soon I'll have a work email address as well so life just keeps getting better and better. When I came home today I had every intention of takin' care of business-I finished my Sudoku from the paper, ate dinner and then cleaned the kitchen rug with a water hose, laundry detergent and a scrubby brush. I sat down to read some more about the incest Greek gods and goddesses when I got a text from Randal. He wanted me to come over so he could tell me a crazy story. I'm thinking "no I need to read and finish up laundry so I can pack to go home tomorrow..." and then he says "but long story short I quit cross country". I told him this when I got to his house but I don't think he could have told me he was in labor and gotten my attention any faster than he did. The universe is speaking let me tell you what. The same day I start a "real job", Mr. RANdal Nelson Guinn quits cross country. I foresee crazy things happening in the next few days. The story is a long one but here's my one word summary: facebook. If you wondered why I avoid it like the plague for the most part, that is exactly why. Things on facebook get taken out of context and someone gets upset and there is a virtual war-and chances are the people fighting this war are doing it during class. Classic example...
Isn't that hilarious? Not hilarious in the absurd way but hilarious in a "wow that's really how it is" sort of way. You don't have to thrive on drama to sometimes get caught up "in a relationship...with a loser" if you know what I'm sayin’ ;) That being said; for those of you using the f word (facebook) for its intended purposes, kudos. The rest of you... ::sighh:: I don't know how I'll deal with it. Oh yes, actually I do. I'll just continue to ignore my facebook 98% of the time.
My original game plan was to blog about my first day of work and how excited I am to be coming home for Gator Fest and the Tech Football game!!! Obviously I got off track; but, rest assured I am still excited to be going home. I have this intense urge to sign off Ron Burgundy style something along the lines of "From the entire Turning The Paige production crew, I'm Paige Parkhill go....stay classy San Angelo."
Last little note..
When I was looking for the Anchorman clip to post I found this instead, way better!
The more I watch this the funnier it gets. You go Sue Simmons!
So, uh what about RANdal? Hope he's 'okay' - glad you liked your job, I remember my first 'real office' - of course they didn't have computers back then, or email so I didn't get those but I had a phone with a hold button so I had that going for me!
