Hello all! Our apologies for the looong delay in-between posts. Apparently we have more time in the summer than during the fall to post stuff… weird how that works. Anyway, work has finally slowed down a little for me recently, so I am going to share with you a fun story from this summer.
About mid-August the DC-area was continuously hit with some rather nasty storms. There was one in particular that caused some black-outs and damage. I was concerned for the well-being of my friends and family back home, and my co-worker, Gin, had come into my office complaining of a knot in her shoulder. So, she sat at my desk so I could work on her shoulder (I’ve been told I’m a fairly decent masseuse). I was, obviously, talking to Jenn, so Gin took over for me. I also wanted to call home to see if my parents ok, so I was on my phone with my mom. Here is the conversation that ensued:
me: did you have any issues with the storm yesterday?Jennifer: we had power surges at work and my computer restarted about 10 million times but no problems at home there were some lights out and branches in the roadme: hi - this is gin typing for michele - good to hear you didn't have anything to major. michele is talking to her mom right now.Jennifer: hi gin!and hi to michele's mom!me: hi there! and I have to admit, michele is trying to work out a knot in my shoulderJennifer: wow i am impressed with the multitaskingsend her over here when she's doneme: mary lou says hi! - ah yes, ERC skills!I'm sure michele wishes she was there with youJennifer: i think if i had the choice today, i'd come there - my office is boring and it's still gross and rainy outme: yes - awesome 70s and the weekend looks great, the problem is most of our beaches are closed due to the great white hanging out...and no, not in our elevator!Jennifer: hahaha - you better be careful just in case!we are looking at 80s and t-storms for the next week!!me: indeed! I think you will be sending us those storms and then we'll send you the 70sJennifer: works for meme: michele hit the knot in my shoulder AND i think i am going to vomitcan you draw that?Jennifer: lol ewwwwi totally could!!me: its michele - i'm back1Jennifer: welcome backbye gin!me: shes getting some watermy mom laughed at the situation in my office - gin typing to you while i'm giving her a massage and talking to her on the phoneshe was like, a lot of works getting doneJennifer: i was trying to draw her a picture, but i realized it would take more than 5 sec so i don't really have time now but it is so going to be drawnSo, now, we gift you with the picture that depicts this highly productive work day… and how you may feel when someone hits that knot that’s been developing in your shoulder for weeks on end:
PS. We also promise to try and step up the posting. If there is something you would like us to post/talk/draw about, let us know!
