While I can be pretty smart at times (just ask my roommate Matt that I never talk about who cries and whines that I don’t mention him but here you go you big crybaby how’s this are you happy now beware of what you ask for you just may get it - more on that later), sometimes I miss some details…
Like today, for example. I just found out at 1:30 today, that we aren’t open on Friday! Jackpot!
Luckily, I’m not the only one that was oblivious - my boss didn’t know either…
And it’s not like it should’ve been a big surprise or anything. It’s been clearly listed on our “Recognized Holidays” sheet on the bulletin board in the kitchen. All. Year. Long.
Damn.
So - short week for me! WooHoo! This is like when you wake up at like 4:30 in the morning, look over at the clock, and see that you still have a couple hours more to sleep - but waaaaaaaaay better!
I’m off all of the week of the 26th, so my vacation just got a day longer!
PS - a coworker just walked by doling out rumballs that would bring the kids from the Real World: Austin to their knees… double jackpot!
happily typing away with a rumball buzz in my head, and short week syndrome in my heart,
-KS
I win.

Oh, I am sooo trying to be happy for you, and yet myjealousy and lack of rumballs make me so crusty…

I knew I should have sent my resume back when you said you were hiring.

Matt - yes, you win in the sense that you only work 12 hours a week, and spend the rest of your time going to the Voodoo Lounge, watching ESPN Classic, and sleeping, yet still are able to pay your rent.
Jay - I’d assuage your crustiness by downplaying the day off and rumballs, but I can’t! The day off rules and the rumballs were great! Sorry, my friend…
PLD - Yes. Yes you should’ve.
