Randomness...April Showers style.
1. April. Really???
How come I'm still stuck in January somewhere?
Month 4 of the year... and I'm in denial.
Just like I am about the year.
2009???
What the...?
2. Who plays April Fools jokes these days?
I'm so lame at tricking people... I can't ever get a decent "fool" on.
Yesterday, one of the girls I work with and I were wracking our brains trying to come up with something to trick someone on our team.
Because I'm so lame, I finally googled "Office Pranks" to see if there was something I could come up with based on any of the suggestions.
After reading a few ideas... I sheepishly walked over to her cubicle to tell her that my lameness knew no bounds and that I googled a few ideas.... when I noticed her browser was at the exact same web page I'd just read.
And all at once I didn't feel SO lame.
Just old.
3. I love my job... and I love what I do. I enjoy the busy-ness of it all...and that I laugh many times throughout the day.
(I do NOT love month end, however---although changes abound... but that's an entirely different post.)
It's really is a double edged sword.
What lead to the pensive mood??
A new job opened up in our group.... that I don't really have a chance of getting.
Not that I feel I'm the most perfect person for the job... but you know what I mean.
4. Raising teenagers has provided me tons of insight on my own teen life. What a stinker I was.
And next month?? I will officially have 4 of them living under my own roof.
'Nuff said.
5. How can a 12 year old boy eat as much food as the rest of the entire family in one sitting??? Where EXACTLY does it go? I mean seriously....
The mechanics of it all boggles my mind.
His voice is finally changing... he's been going around talking with a pretend lower voice, just so he 'doesn't sound like a girley man' (::his words::) and so he can fit in with his other homeys....
He has finally gotten his wish.
However, learning to master the decibles at which his voice cracks has only just begun.
6. Achilles continues on his new journey of discovery ... while dragging me around for the ride. I keep telling him to do it my way... but does he listen??? noooohhhhh. Stubborn fool. Doesn't he know that I'm always right???
