I took off work on Thursday and these are some observations:
- Starbucks isn't private. Please don't carry on private conversations on your BlueTooth. I saw (and heard) a guy talking into his computer (I Site?) - he was complaining about an employee. He named the employee and told us all that she was a problem from Day 1! He later moved next to us (yes, he discussed said employee 2 table over and we still could hear) and we were able to see his company's name. I'm thinking of calling this employee so I can get half of the money she can get from her company for talking about her in Starbucks.
- I saw a lady enrolling someone in Aflac in Starbucks (Starbucks isn't private!) - she was sitting with lots of papers and her lap top was open. In front of the lap top, she had placed a stuffed Aflac duck. It was dressed for the prom. I know I was impressed.
- At the pedicure place, just be happy they work on your feet. Don't ask for much. There is a serious language barrier. If the one lady who speaks West Texas English is there, you may ask for something special.
- There are rules to eating your way through Sam's. Go up one side and down the other - don't cross. Walk up and down another aisle so it may appear that you're buying something. Always say "Thank you," of course.
- You may not go down the hall where the classrooms are until the bell rings at 3:15. Needless to say, there is very important instruction going on at 3:10.

I've been tagged by Anne to come up with some weirdness about me. I'm not weird. I'm normal. Check back later to see if I can come up with anything.

I blogged about the computer man and duck also. I think our posts must have hit at exactly the same time. I am still laughing thinking about the duck and Mr. Computer man.
SO glad that you had some fun experiences on your day off yesterday. :)
Note to self: If you need something to blog about, take a day off work and things will come to you.
Sounds like you & Tammy had quite the afternoon! Glad you had some time off to yourself...gotta have that now & again.
I hear you on the language barrier at nail places. I ended up getting solar nails months ago, and not really intending to. I find myself just saying "Yeah...ok.....Yeah" over & over...because I have no idea what they are saying. Luckily I love my solar nails...so I guess I wasn't too upset about that.
Sneak all you want. . .I just looked up "fabric" in google and went to lots of sites until I found some that had pictures big enough that they wouldn't be all fuzzy when I cropped them and Wordpress made them hugemongous for my header. . .it was really pretty easy after that. . .I'll have both running but won't be able to do any real switching until after Thursday, so keep checking back to see what I've discovered next. . .like how to linky doodle things to categories. . .
