(no subject)

Amazing the days when I actually *enjoy* my job. They are rare and few and fare between. But today was a GREAT day. I didn't get yelled at. In fact, I was applauded and graciously thanked by several people, which is unheard of. Never happens.

Find me a "Left Handed Humpback Whale Trainer, with knowledge of Mandarin and Cantonese." And make him Blonde. I need him by four o'clock, they said. I responded by cranking up the Placebo, putting only the hyperactive bouncy songs on, got a big ass glass of water, and headed straight for my rolodex. Pulled up two people who I knew had NOTHING to do with Humpback Whales, but would know how to find a Trainer. And then Vroooom! I call and they gave me names, and within two (TWO!!!!) phonecalls I had my guy on the phone.

And he also knew Japanese and Hungarian, and also trained Dolphins.

And after only a little trouble (again, LITTLE!) they retained him! Yay! And my boss was happy, and the expert was happy, and the attorney was happy, and now we have a Left Handed Humpback Whale Trainer who speaks Mandarin, Cantonese, Japanese and Hungarian and has reasonable fees!

This thing does not happen.

So, having done the impossible, I thumbed my nose at the rest of the work day and spent the time being productive on things like re-arranging my pens, an stocking up on post-it notes. I also did some much needed dusting and dancing around. To Placebo. Loudly.

And the boss just looked at me funny when I was bopping around the office later to James Brown and Scissor Sisters and Nine Inch Nails. I was on a conference call. With the headset on. Dancing in a chair.

Funny what you can get away with when you don't care and you're in a GREAT mood!

I wonder how long I can keep this up!

BOYS! DON'T! CRYYYYYY!!!!

Heeeeee!!!!!

Oooh, look! Laundry! SQUEEEE!!!! HEE HEE HEE HEE!
