Why I Feel Like Milton from Office Space
1. When I got back from vacation, my chair was gone. This is not the first time someone's stolen my chair, either.
2. People just walk in and out of my cubicle, taking things from shelves and storing things as they please.
3. I get a lot of the shit work.
4. Instead of hanging up my own decorations, I had to hang a big map of the city of Denver on my wall. And, it's not even a nice map.
5. All my computers are hand-me-downs and everyone else has like two new fast computers.
6. There's no window near me.
7. One person I work with always has a coffee cup in their hand when they walk around (no lie!) and they talk all cheesy. "Hey there, why don't I shoot you an e-mail? We can meet later and talk about the project. M'kay..."

Things Hethy Can Do While I Am In Mexico and Unable to Keep Her Company Via E-mail
1. work... hahaha just kidding, of course
2. figure out the answer to that awful riddle... "1,11,21,blah,blah"... Damn you and your wicked mind games, Sebastion, you evil genius!!!
3. think of things she wants to do when she comes to CO
4. blog (both definitions of the word)
5. daydream about the good old days when leg warmers and mini t-shirts were welcome at the CIS
6. read funny fake news stories at http://www.theonion.com
7. play this fun game i stumbled upon: http://www.staffersgame.com... it's really mindless and you can compete for a high score.
8. manipulate her work study students into buying her food from BC dining halls with their meal points
9. brainstorm clapping songs and songs with high pitched voices and songs with crazy synthesizer action in them... i smell a trilogy compilation in the making...
10. plunge clogged toilets
11. make another profile on match.com because the responses she got were so entertaining.
12. pick her nose, but don't let the boss see because i have a feeling that isn't part of "the whole new hethy", also i don't think that's vegetarian. ew.

Reasons Why I Hate Darque Tan Tanning Salon on Speer in Denver, Colorado
1. there is usually a long line
2. 80 percent of the time i'll take off all my clothes and hit the start button and NOTHING HAPPENS. so i have to redress and go up to the front desk and tell someone. EMBARASSING!
3. one time the door to my room didn't close and i sat up from my tanning session all naked an the door to the main hall was WIDE OPEN! EMBARASSING!
4. people come out of there looking like leather bags
5. all their tanning products are uber-expensive. like fory bucks!
6. everyone who works there is really, really, really tan.
7. i have been going every other day for the past 3 weeks. and i still look pale. what?!
8. i still can't figure out how to get the radios or the fans to work.
9. the word dark is misspelled to make is seem exotic... i guess? darque? whatever.
10. i don't even know how much i am paying for my membership. i went to inquire about prices, and the girl talked for like 30 minutes. next thing i know, i'm handing her my credit card and then walking home with a mild sunburn.

Fun Things That I Didn't Do On Saint Patrick's Day
1. wear green - i forgot and i wore black and white, so boring
2. drink green beer - i was too tired to go out
3. talk with an irish accent - i tried, but it came out sounding cajun
4. bring green rice krispy treats to work - i got up early, bought all the supplies, made the green marshmellow concoction, opened the box of cereal and DAMMIT I BOUGHT HOLIDAY RICE KRISPYS!!! they were red. it was a disaster.
