Bug problems..

Ughhhh.. seriously people, I am the biggest baby ever about anything related to bugs...

I know there are bugs out there everywhere... but I don't want to see them, feel them, hear them.. none of that.

Well, unfortunately for me right now I am freaking out a little because there is something in my office. I have an empty box in one corner of my office (which yes, I should have already thrown out but haven't gotten around to it)... and I can hear it crawling around in there and it sounds like it's digging to get out.

Ahhhhh... I have tried to ignore it and just continue to work on this massive stack of papers sitting on my desk right now, but I CAN'T. All I can do is keep looking over every 2 seconds to make sure that thing hasn't crawled out of the box yet. (because heaven help me if it does I may really freak out).. and really it has to be a pretty decent size bug for all of the noise it is currently making..

this is the box:

(and please don't judge my office by this one picture.. I swear it's actually very organized and put together..  besides, everyone is allowed to have one messy area.. )

My plan was to ask the guy in the office next to me if he would come look in the box and at least see what it is (yea.. I can't even force myself to go look at it.. pathetic I know). But right before I went to ask him I heard this loud crash and he came falling through the ceiling. No, I am not joking.

Apparently he got a ladder and climbed up there to check something out (no idea what?) and next thing you know he came crashing down. He's fine, but he has a big cut in his arm and now his office is a mess... SO needless to say, I can't bother him to help me with my little bug issue right now.

So now I  have NO plan on how to get it out (or really even how to figure out what it is) and I can't leave.. so it looks like I am stuck here in my office with my new little bug friend. As long as he stays where he is and doesn't actually bother me, we should be able to stay friends.. but if he comes out of the box, one of us is going to have to leave. (not sure yet which one that will be..)

oookay, better get back to work... man, all I can say is THANK GOODNESS IT"S FRIDAY!! The weekend cannot come soon enough!!

Wishful Wednesday

Wow is it really Wednesday already? I woke up this morning and seriously thought it was only Tuesday for about 10min before I realized what day it was.. I told you weeks fly by when I'm super busy at work.. haha. 

Besides for being busy, this week at work has been pretty good so far! Plus the weather today is gorgeous and I just booked my flights to go to visit my family for my sister's prom weekend.. so I'm in a pretty good mood right now :)

Alright well I'm going to go for a quick run while the suns still out and then I'm heading over to my in-laws for dinner. Hope you are all having a good week! (it's halfway over!)

 

This weeks Wishful Wednesday topic:

 'I wish' .... I could afford this ______ handbag without putting a dent in my pocketbook!
   

OK, so I'm not 100% sure exactly which one I would want, but I do know I would want it to be a MARC JACOBS handbag.

and really any of these would do just fine ;o) ...

(Join in the Wishful Wednesday posts at Kelsey's blog and let us know what handbag you want!)

Another day off work! Well, for everyone but ME..

When I woke up this morning I checked my blackberry (aka: my life line) and kept my fingers crossed that I would have an email from work saying we were closed again today (especially since vince got a call from his work last night saying they were closed again)... but unfortunately, no such luck. There were no emails saying anything about the office being closed. I was a little disappointed to say the least..

Since all the roads around our house were still completely covered in snow I decided to wait a little bit before going in to work (one of the best parts of my job is that I don't have set hours I can kind of make my own schedule, as long as the work gets done no one cares what hours you technically work). Vince offered to drive me because he knows how much I hate driving in the snow (and because he wanted to have my car for the day since his isn't 4WD) and we left the house around 9am. When we pulled up to the office parking lot I noticed there were only 2 other cars parked when normally the lot is packed (especially since most people are at the office by 8am), but the lights were on and the doors were unlocked so I figured everyone was just running late like me and so I thanked the hubby for dropping me off and I went inside.  

About 2 minutes after I got into my office and turned on the computer, one of the guys from the warehouse came up and asked what I was doing at work..

 "ummm... it's not snowing anymore and I didn't get an email about work being closed so I assumed we were open?"

Yea.. well after he finished laughing at me for coming in the day after our area gets "the most snow in history" he said, "we need to make sure you get added to our call list, I guess they decided not to send an email and just call everyone today and you must not be on the list yet".  Oh, well yea that would nice. So glad I just made my husband wake up on his day off to drive me to work, when I didn't need to be here... AND now I am here with NO car to leave in.

So, I figured since I was already here I would go ahead and get a little work done and then call Vince to come pick me back up in a couple of hours. Yea.. well that was the plan at least, but that was 5 hours ago and yet I am still here. Why you ask.. because shortly after I decided to stay my boss stopped by the office too and when he saw I was here he was like "oh great, now we can take the phones off the answering service and stay open for the day" (yea "great" wouldn't have been my first choice of a word, but ok..) "you don't mind helping with the phones since all the secretaries are out do you" No, of course not. I would love to stay here and answer the phones while everyone else stays home and enjoys the snow day.

So yea, that is how I ended up working when technically my office is closed for the day. But hey, at least it makes me look like a star employee to my boss, right? (I have to get bonus points for this! haha) And since hardly anyone else is even here, it's not like it's a very busy day.. so I guess I really shouldn't complain. (Except for the fact that I would much rather be curled up on the couch with Vice and Ty watching movies all day)

Well at least it's Thursday, which means tomorrow is FRIDAY! Plus Vince is taking me to PF Changs for dinner tonight to celebrate Valentine's Day a little early (since we will be away), so I have that to look forward to too!

Hope all of you that ARE home right now are enjoying your snow day :o)  and to those of you who are at work like me.. only one more day till the weekend! haha
