my wrinkled shirt and Bruce
Ok, you seriously have to work to look nice. I'll be damned if I didn't spend fifteen minutes ironing and starching this shirt last night and if I don't sit up straight all damn day then I am a wrinkly mess. This is why your mom bitches at you about your posture your entire life. It isn't health related or more graceful. It is simply to keep your damn shirts from wrinkling. Doesn't some company make wrinkle free shirts yet?
I will be painting my toenails on company time today... Is that wrong? lol You see, when I got up this morning I did not have one pair of black socks left so I either had to wear socks that didn't match my clothes or wear sandals. Seeing as I have some pretty bitchin' heeled sandals, I opted for those. However, I realized that my toenail polish was chipped and looked like crap. So, picture this: ten minutes before your darling Kate is supposed to be leaving for work she is furiously scrubbing toenail polish off of her toes. Not having time to repaint and then wait for them to dry though, she had to stick a bottle of pink polish in her pocket and high tail it out the door.

I just looked over at the huge glass vase that sits on my desk and realized that I haven't ever mentioned Bruce here. For those of you who didn't stop reading at the toenail polish bit, let me introduce you to my lovely little fishy friend, Bruce. I don't actually have any pictures of Bruce. Seeing as how my co-workers think I am nutty for talking to him, I think taking his picture might get me committed, lol. But, he is a Beta. He is a very dark maroon color with tangled fins. He looks old and I have to admit that I often wonder how much longer he will be keeping me company. I know you are just sitting in front of your PC wondering out loud to yourself Where did Bruce come from? so let me tell you... I stole Bruce from the rental department. His previous owner used to bring him over to our building to clean his vase (since our building is the only one still on undrinkable well water) and finally we decided that he should live over here.
I swear when I get here in the mornings he swims around like crazy, like he is saying hi or feed me or something like that... I think if fish are happy then Bruce is one happy fish and it makes me happy having him here on my desk. I'm sure there is some feng shui thing going on there.

All right, readers, it is Tuesday. Do you know where your mind is? :) Have a great day!

"I just got done reading the history lessons on your blog (yes, I've been lurking on your blog). All the respect I had for you...has increased, like, tenfold. I don't think I could have done it. To go through what you have and not only still be able to discuss it with such wit and poise, but also to raise those three gorgeous girls. You are truly an inspiration. You are honestly one of the strongest people I have ever known, either online or IRL. Thank you so much." -Stef
