Random Thoughts

Ugh this weekend totally did my digestive system in. Chicken parm and that huge piece of carrot cake- which I am happy to say I did not throw up- last night, Olive Garden (eggplant parm) today.....ugh. And now it's supposed to snow tomorrow. Double ugh!

And speaking of the OG, they really need to start selling those panini sandwiches all of the time. The chicken parm one is so good! With working, I can't get there for lunch as often. I was able to go the day after the Electric Factory concert, but that was because I had taken off that day.

I went for my blood work yesterday morning. I had to laugh when I walked into the waiting room- it was full of old people. Really? They didn't have all week to go? Oh and then there was some show on in the waiting room called Ocean Mysteries and they were discussing loggerhead turtles and the hosts were standing in a pool full of baby ones. Do you know how hard it is to not squeal in a waiting room full of people? Anyway, this blood work is the first time I am having my cholesterol levels checked. I'm curious to know what they are, but at the same time, I don't want to know them. Also, I didn't exactly fast 12 hours. I was about an hour short.

I need to decide this week whether to go to my FWA's baby shower. I really do not want to. Except like I said before, I know I will inevitably feel guilty about not going. I think if I wasn't so uncomfortable around my coworkers, it wouldn't be so bad. And then I found out the one girl I used to work with will be there. I have to laugh how she is all buddy-buddy with my FWA now. The same person who used to bad mouth her constantly in the office. The same person who told the whole office that my FWA and her boyfriend used the pull out method and then made fun of her. Which I did, too, because anyone who is dumb enough to think the pull out method is reliable shouldn't be having sex. But I did not do it in the office.

Our manager found out this past week that she was not invited to the shower. To say she was pissed is an understatement. And she was planning on giving my FWA a shower, but asked my FWA something about it and I don't know what her response was except it seemed like she declined having one, and the next thing I knew, my manager sent the rest of an email telling us we weren't having one for her. My FWA used to say constantly that she probably wasn't going to be giving one in the office. I never understood why she said that. Everyone got showers. She's just a fucking dumb ass. And I guarantee sometime down the line, she'll bitch that she wasn't giving one.

Ugh, I never seen a place ooze so much damn drama. And I am not looking forward to going back to work tomorrow. Stupid weekends and their flying by.

This Better Be Some Kind Of Joke

Olive Garden, Red Lobster Struggle To Revive Sales 

No. NO. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

If the Olive Garden ever closes, and Red Lobster closes before I ever get the chance to try their cheddar biscuits, I am going to be very, VERY upset.

And don't give me "but Slightly Short of Sane, Olive Garden isn't really Italian food lol". I know that! That does not mean I cannot enjoy it! I don't give a shit if every thing there is supposedly not homemade, but rather frozen and reheated! Their eggplant parm is awesome! Their breadsticks are awesome! The minestrone soup is the best I have ever tasted (so far)! And the white chocolate raspberry cheesecake? Well, I'm pretty sure it's from the frozen Cheesecake Factory products you can buy in stores like BJs and stuff, but....oh mama!

Swastika Day Organizers Happy With Reaction To Pro-Swastika Banner Over New Jersey Beaches

I saw an airplane with one of those banners when I was down Seaside. I had to read it twice to make sure I wasn't seeing things. Pretty much every single thing I see or hear down Seaside does not surprise me, so I just shook my head and brushed it off. I did the same when I heard "Feliz Navidad" blasting. I thought "why in the hell are they playing "Feliz Navidad" in June?". Then I reminded myself of where I was and brushed it off.
