oooooooooookay...

So yesterday, I was at work and I get this call from a lady. I ask her what city and state, and she proceeds to tell me her story. She's watching the inauguration parade on TV, and she likes the activities that are going on in it. The problem? She can't really see it, since people keep coming on and talking instead. I ask her what listing, and she tells me she wants the number for the station, so she can call them and tell them to put the parade on, and stop putting the people (announcers) on. At this point, I'm shaking my head...I ask her what station. She tells me never mind, and hangs up.

Oh, the fun of 411....

perfect

You are perfect. in every way. When I feel like I have nothing to look forward to, I look at you and all those thoughts just disappear. I gaze into your eyes, and all my problems dissolve into them. When all is wrong in my world, all I have to do is see you and I know everything will be ok. I wish I could look at the world through your eyes--without a care in the world. No bills to pay, no tomorrow to worry about. When I look at you, I get all choked up--not because I fear for you, but because I have so much hope for you. Because for now, nothing can go wrong with you or for you. You're perfect.

thoughts from 411...

...I hear dumb people.

...some of my customers make me feel like a genius.

...the IQ of people who use cell phones drops after 12:00am.

...now telemarketers call 555-1212.

...yeah, the automation sucks, but that's job security for me.

...people ask me weird things, like how to spell words, state capitals, and the price of postage stamps.

Now please don't be offended if you're a Verizon, VZ Wireless, T-Mobile, AllTel, or Cellular One (now AT&T) customer...I'm one of those customers too...just don't call 411 for really stupid reasons, or you just might get me, and you'll end up here...lol. Or in my friend's book (yes, she's got about a book worth of weird/obnoxious 411 stuff)...go check her blog out...she's here (maybe if you visit, she'll post more).

christmas

It went well, actually. On Christmas Eve, the kids got to open their presents from me and Joey. They all received an outfit, then Dude got a mp3 player, and Bum got a cell phone. We still had some shopping to do...we were doing that until almost 6pm--when all the stores closed...it was nuts! The kids had yet to see Santa, so we went to the mall, but by the time we got there he was gone. Luckily one of the ladies working the Santa photo booth took their letters and said she'd give it to him right away. *wink wink*

We decided to go to Mom's house for dinner, despite the fact that we knew Ass would be there, among other family members we would like to see fall off the face of the earth don't like to associate with. It was funny...we got there early and immediately headed for the dining room. When the unmentionables showed up, they stayed in the living room until we left. In fact, after we loaded our gifts into the car, we went back in the house--that's when they ventured into the dining room to eat...lol. That was the highlight of my day...well, that and seeing the kids' faces in the morning...and when the kids said the gifts we got them were better than what Santa got them...lmao. Would that mean we outdid ourselves?!? LOL.

The downside of the day was that I had to work. I had a late shift (as I always do), so it wasn't so bad....just people mostly looking for movie times, liquor stores (aren't they closed on the holiday?), and relatives they KNOW are in the phonebook (they weren't). At one point I wanted to pull out my hair, tie it around my neck and choke myself with it. Yay.

So how was your Christmas?
