Where are the Cupcakes When You Need'Em?
I have the mid-day hump day blues ya'll! It's not looking good for the rest of the day either.
First, I get to work and realize that I've left my purse at home! After that magnificent revelation, I realized that I only have 25 miles worth of gas left in my car. I have yet, as an adult, to run out of gas and become stranded on the side of the road, however, if that dreaded event presented itself today, it would be more than fitting.
Second, as I sit down to open up my email, I see that the office admin is out sick. So... what does that mean for Candy? It means that I'm doing her duties as well as mine... all day... for the entire office. Don't get me wrong, I don't mind helping her out when she's gone because she's always more than willing to help me with anything that I need, but it just sucks being the office gopher. I always tip my hat to her because she does a bang-up job at everything. She's always pleasant and always amenable to whatever you need. Me, on the other hand, they usually get the stare of death and a dry answer. I think they've learned by now to avoid coming to me if they don't really have to :-)
Third, still agonizing that I don't have my purse, and that I'm damn near out of gas, I realize, I left my lunch sitting in one of the dining room chairs. SMH! I am more than certain that once I get home, my lunch will have been devoured by one or both of my little pooch dogs. They'll eat right on through the cardboard box to get to that frozen meal, which still won't stop them from chowing down.
All I can do is laugh and pray that a yummy box of GiGi's Cupcakes do not magically appear in the break room anytime soon. If they do... I don't know what will happen. I keep saying little prayers for the Lord to give me strength. I have to. I'll lose it if I don't. These impromptu stress moments are the ones that incite the fatty mcfatster in me to reveal herself. I'm trying to curb that and keep fatty at bay. I have to remember that there is a greater cause going on behind the scenes here. I have to remember that I have a purpose for enduring all of these hunger pangs. I also have to remember that I want to be fine as wine come December *wink*
*Side note*: My supervisor just came and brought me some imported chocolate from the Galapagos Islands. GREAT!
