Boss comes over, drops a hundred dollar bill on my desk and says, "Buy a nice glass of wine the next time you eat at Babbo". Anything cool happening in your neck of the woods? -Eff

Heh, I am hoping for some cool and/or unusual-but-strictly-only-in-a-good-way stuff to happen to me NEXT week!
Any week that started with some weirdo swearing at me on the subway in Monday morning's rush hour obviously wasn't going to get much better... and of course it didn't. Presently looking forward to Hagen-Daaz chocolate swing dancing not having to go to work this weekend :P

I was so surprised this week to see new epsidoes of Divorce Court in the 10:30 AM time slot with Judge Mabelene. It's such a hoot and it really made my day.

Are you sure you're not a farce account?
I KNOW that I'm watching it right NOW. Tyrome is a 30 year old marketing director whp gives a pase 1 and phase 2 oreintation to the women he loves (he's married to 3 wives). Wife 1 discovered his paligamy on the interent chats with the other wives. He has now brought his electronic keyboard in for his courtroom testimony, where he is demonstaring his charm on the judge with sweet music. Well needless to say the wife 1 wants a divorce. Afterall the man is hitting on the judge.

So my boss just walks in my office and says, "it's nice out, leave whenever you want". I'm like...umm, OK. :P He then says, "I'll see ya Monday". A big grin in my face turns to a frown when I realize that I've got at least another hour of work to do on this report I'm working on. I told him and then he say's...."so, take your laptop home with you and relax".

One of my friends got a personal trainer and she asked me if I wanted to work out with her on a regular basis. AND she's picking up the tab. So I get to work out with Pookie 3 times a week! Yay!

Hey you know, getting a personal trainer for free, who costs 100 an hour, 3 times a week is a pretty sweet deal, even if his name is Pookie. I swear, i don't know why he goes by Pookie. but it doesn't matter because he's amazing.

Oh, I hear ya! It's awesome that you get training for free! :D
It was just.. funny. In a very immature sort of way. It made me snort when I read it.
But then.. I also cackled out loud in Charlie/Chocolate Factory when the boat went by the sheep room and Wonka said he didn't want to talk about that one. I laughed till I cried. And I'm sure everyone thought I was a perv. :wink:

Quoted from "Lindy Trollop" One of my best friends from high school, with whom I'd lost touch completely, emailed me out of the blue this morning. Hadn't heard from her in 10 years.

One of my best friends from when I was a kid (5ish) who i actually went to college with for a year emailed me today. She is a nice but strange girl, and we haven't spoken for about a year. Come to find out, the email was pictures of her NEW BABY. And she's married (2nd time) now. So much can happen in a year...
she's 6 months younger than me. and married twice. and has a kid. and lives in a very small town in kansas...go fig.

Somebody's wife had an emergency so he can't make the TDY (temp duty), I'm taking for him on last minute notice. So, once I write my fabulous cool thing unexpectedly, I'll be heading to the plane for an awesome TDY...
...to Sigonella NAS (Naval Air Station), Sicily for two days, Souda Bay, Greece for two days, Istrus, France for two days and... back to KS! Boo-yah!

A month ago, I had to fly to Wisconsin to spend many hours with my grandmother, who had been moved into a nursing home because she was getting confused a lot and was unable to walk or be mobile by herself and wasn't really eating. I was there essentially to babysit her because my aunt had a very hectic week and couldn't spend much time with her then, and probably to say goodbye because we didn't think she'd last much longer. At the time, a new doctor had put her on a new medication, and we started seeing some improvement in her condition while I was there. By the time I left, she was able to walk a little bit with a walker, roll herself around in her wheelchair a little bit, and go longer periods of time without getting so confused.
Tonight I called her to wish her a happy 98th birthday. She was awake and alert and happy to hear from me. She's moved out of the nursing home into a more residential home, is completely self-mobile in her wheelchair, has gained 6 pounds since she left the nursing home, has been playing bridge regularly with the other residents, went out to dinner with a number of visiting relatives tonight and had a fantastic shrimp and scallops dinner (and saved the leftovers to eat tomorrow), talked my uncle into bringing over her typewriter so she could start typing letters to us again, and told me all of this herself as she carried on an extremely intelligent and quite witty conversation with me for almost an hour at 10 o' clock at night (her time)! Go, Grams!

Hands down Excess wins. The coolest thing that ever happened to me with famous people and food doesn't even compare.
I was at my best friend's house in high school sitting in the kitchen when Billy Powell came downstairs to grab some ice cream and take it back to his room. . .

I checked my final grade for my communications class... I got a 103 . I'm quite happy.
I get to leave a half an hour early today. I know it's not much, but I've been swamped with work.
It means I get to arrive in Orlando a half an hour early and actually enjoy dinner rather than scarfing it down and dancing. . .
Orlando as in UCF? Who are you? Do I know you?
sweat happened to me.
Hermmmmm, I think you should know me. . . :D
It's Matt, or as Keith introduces me as "the resident gay lindy hopper". :roll:
That was pretty unexpected, huh?
Love you Keith, I really do.
Just not in that way.
Bears. Beets. Battlestar Galactica.
Now that would be unexpectedly cool. . . :P
I met a girl who has the EXACT same name as me... well I didn't meet her, she found me on the facebook.
Yesterday was my last day at work and my coworkers brought me out to dinner and gave me a gift card!
