Good morning! I almost never post in the morning. I really admire all you bloggers who write in the quiet of the mornings before work. I absolutely cannot do that. I just have no impulse control...I end up turning off the computer at the very last nanosecond and then I race around like a crazy person, end up late to work wearing a questionable outfit and even worse hair.
But this morning I woke up bright and early, mainly because I didn't fight sleep. I'm off work today...I am going home to my high school. Yesterday was very busy...much preparation in the works.
You know how when you laugh so hard that your shoulders shake, but you don't make any noise, you have tears poking their way out of the corners of your eyes, and you can't stop laughing no matter what you do? Well, we had that kind of laughter at work. One of the technicians has this country accent (think Loretta Lynn/Reba McEntire, not as much Scarlett O'Hara). Her deep, gutteral, mumble is a constsant source of joy and amusement that is always heightened by PharmGuy's imitation of her. He is one of the other pharmacists; he's very tall and actually looks a lot like Matt Damon. He has this deeeeeep voice and he flirts with all the older black ladies that come in the pharmacy. They all have crushes on him and giggle like fifth graders when he talks to them. Between her mumble and his imitation, I laughed harder than I have in a long time.
Then I checked email and saw that one of my college friends has added me as a friend on Facebook. I just gasped out loud...I haven't seen/spoken to him in about 14 years. I was so in love/awe of him. He's very tall and was just gorgeous (my roommate used to call him the Gillette man), very proudly from Chicago with a thick accent and a brash, in-your-face personality. I was so crazy about him...he was like a rock star to me. Anyway, I've got to figure out my Facebook account. I've never actually logged in because it doesn't recognize my email. Who knows? Facebook support is working on it. I'll keep you posted.
That was truly the best part of work yesterday...saddish because it happened about 30 minutes after we opened. But I did get to leave a few minutes early so that tied for a close second of best work moment.

OMG! I absolutely remember having a crush on this guy who was just amazing! I have no idea where he is. Maybe I should google him!! Keep us posted on Gillette man! :)
this sounds good... we need to hear more :)
Hey honey. Thought I'd stop by and give you this link from what I wrote last month that should help with the question you left today. Trust me. You are not the only one who wonders about it... hence my post:

love the old crush - and having a fun day at work too, a major bonus!
Update: Gillette Man and I have emailed. I am going to ask him if I can post an old pic of us in college. You all have got to see my big ass 80s hair that carried over into the 90s.
