Friday night blues

Excited to leave work and start the WEEKEND, I arrived home to an empty apartment tonight. My excitement diminished somewhat as I reconciled myself to the fact that I was on my own for a bit, as the roomates were out and not answering their phones. This is hard for me on fridays, because I want to be social! I decided I should be productive whilst waiting for the roomates to return. So far I have balanced my check book, written some bills, checked my empty e-mail inbox numerous times, hair-dryered my soaking wet mattress (I spilled a whole water bottle on it this morning), and eaten an entire bag of skittles. I'm ready for people time! Come home, roomates, and play with me!

You know you're bored at work when

You start typing with only your left hand, just to make the one task you have to do (that normally would take about 2 minutes) last as long as possible, because you have nothing else to do at work for three more hours........
What do you do when you're bored?

Looking for Interpretations

I was just washing my hands in the bathroom, when another woman came in and went into a stall. A couple of seconds later she said, "Save, save, and save again." I was the only other person in the bathroom. What was she talking about........and who was she talking to......?

A Day in the Life

(of Christina, Attorney-sitter extraodinaire) - do not confuse these real life events with something you may have seen in a sit com......
Part 1
Attorney: I looked for Mr. X's deposition folder where it was supposed to be with the rest of the file, and I just can't find it. Do you have it? Can you find it for me?
Me: No, I don't have it. If it's not with the rest of the file, I don't know where it is, but I'll look for it.
Two minutes later: I have located the folder in question - on the shelf with the rest of the file, and in alphabetical order exactly where it is supposed to be.
Part 2
Attorney: (frantically) I have a deposition in an hour and I can't find the witness folder! Where is it????
Me: I haven't seen it in months. I assumed you had it.
After four of us have been searching everywhere we can think of: The attorney finds the folder sitting right in front of her on her desk.

P.S. It was the same attorney both times.
