yesterday, a certain someone was eating a buffalo chicken sandwich, somehow got buffalo sauce on his finger, and then rubbed his eye. of course, the sauce got into his eye and started burning. fortunately, there was a bottle of water nearby. it still burned well into the afternoon. and i'm still chuckling about it.
this morning, someone's 2 button was stuck. (ironically, this person had an issue with that same button on the vending machine last week. if you're reading this and you know what that means, please comment! according to wikipedia, according to a Chinese saying, "Good things comes in pairs." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2_(number)) when the IT guy entered 222222222 as an ID number, it brought up a person named "Purple Monster." well, technically, it said, "Monster, Purple." of course, it was a test file for something and not a real person. anyway, we enjoyed that this morning, grateful for the fact that someone in IT had a good sense of humor. i added notes: "ONE-EYED, ONE-HORNED. FLIES. LIKES TO EAT PEOPLE." and someone else made a note that said the mother called and was so upset she breathed fire through the phone. ok, maybe someone was a little excited and went off into a world of fantasy, but we were having fun.
today, i'm going to send a fax to someone from their future selves. this is funny because they've already sent it to themselves. yeah, that will be my extracurricular activity for the day.

The Finer Things Club... and some less fine things
last night, i went to my first meeting of The Finer Things Club. ok, so it's not work-related, but it's definitely Office-related! we had all read The Elegance of the Hedgehog, which i do recommend, even if it's French.
on a more work-related note (yet still, how very Office-related!), one of my co-workers discovered an alarming scene at the vending machine. now, on The Office, Jim is friends with the vending machine guy, Steve, and so he's able to prank Dwight by having his personal office supplies stocked in the vending machine. our vending machine guy is pretty nice, makes small talk without too much awkwardness. the alarming scene was this: his hand down the back of his pants. i can't verify this information because i was not there. could it have just been a quick fix of an untucked shirt? we can't be sure. personally, i would rather give another human being the benefit of the doubt. needless to say, i will be a little more wary of my vending machine purchases from now on.
question of the day: how many wpm (words per minute) can you type?
MLIA of the day: Today, I was sitting in my room and heard a little boy outside sneeze. I said bless you, and five seconds later, I heard a very hesitant...."God??." MLIA
