& she's back

I know I know...I've disappeared off the face of the blog world...

 but the good news is I'm back

& the better news is I have quotes...

I've been out of school for over a year now, so there are no longer the nerdy quotes from our ieor group...but I've been lucky enough to be at a company where the people are equally nerdy & we have hilarious moments too...

& now it's the start of quotes of the day once again...

(there have been soo many in the past year that i may post old ones as i remember them)

(these are from my current project)

matt h: I was waiting for my fiance to finish her haircut, so i started reading one of those gossip magazines & nick lachey was saying his new gf is like one of the boys, but she just happens to be hot. In reality, we all want to be with the hot tomboy, but we all just end up with the whiny/needy ones.

----

(we were debating what the fruits were in the fruit of the loom logo)

me: & there's this green wrinkly one. I think it's a muscat.

josh & matt h: no there isn't! (yada yada yada)

josh: imagine the google search for green wrinkly thing

me: better yet would be the image search

----

matt h: My fiance always says that my coworkers must think she's such a bitch because i only say the stories about her being mean, stupid, or annoying. But, really, Court (her name is Courtney), who wants to hear about you being sweet to me. The other stories are just so much funnier.

----

(I mentioned that this guy at the client company has an Asian fetish)

matt h: Until you're on a date with him, you have no proof & you can't go on a date with him because it's on the contract...i think...watch. there's be some clause that says you can't date the client unless it's to prove he/she has a fetish.

----

on the office instant messenger... 

matt h: if you are really bored, you can add in the L0/L1 word document stuff into this. how much fun would THAT be??? TONS you would enjoy yourself as much as [insert name of guy previously mentioned] out with an asian woman

----

matt h: We can buy [insert name of guy previously mentioned] an Abercrombie and Fitch shirt so that he will have a little "AF" logo

----

matt h: & that is why you don't get to have beer w/ [insert name of guy previously mentioned] & I

me: & that's why you'll be unsuccessful in your conversations with him

----

(we pass around stuffed koalas to projects & the pictures go on our company newsletter, so one week the other project team had Kelli the girl koala)

at pike's market (where they throw fish)

me: where's her shoe!

anthony: brad went to get it in the car. we thought we lost it. (they explained that they freaked out & then Robert had the idea of checking the pictures they took earlier to see if she had her shoe then & she didn't)

brad (when he came back): i had a serious flash forward of my kid losing his shoe & it's not like he would tell me!

(during dinner)

brad: shoe check!

----

at the mariner's game. todd & i were feeding Kelli beer

brad: how's Kelli doing over there?

me: she's drunk. that's why she's so pink (she's dressed in pink)

josh: isn't that like calling the kettle pink?

----

me: there are typos in it like acuracy...ironically

matt h: really? (spellchecks) ironically - i thought at first you typo'd that to make fun of me

me: nope you're that good on your own

----

josh: (explaining that his sunglasses float if they fall off in the water) they're foam

me: they foam?

josh: yes. they foam. everytime i work out i look like i'm rabied.

----

matt h: that's verb tense agreement

me: no it's parallelism because it's a gerund

matt h: gerund?

me: a verb used as a noun ending in -ing

matt h: what do you say when someone sneezes?

matt h: gerund-heit!
