Now Playing: Daughters, by John Mayer
I read an entire book tonight. Took me roughly four hours to read 240 pages. Talk about a boring shift! I've been here since 5 and had 14 calls. Now I'm trying to figure out what to do with myself for the next 90 minutes, as I have no more book to read (and nothing new in blogland either). Was cruising through the GOArch site trying to find some material that would help me explain the practice of fasting to Jim, but I'm really not in the mood for research.
In other news...the creepy guy at work got fired (YAY!) only to be replaced by frequent visits by a resident who is rapidly climbing on the creepy scale. His name is Juan Jose Garcia, and he likes to tell me everything that's going on in his life. He even brought me some pictures of his family to look at. The guy sat and talked my ear off (with an unintelligible accent, I can't understand half of what he says) for TWO HOURS last night. Tonight, I shooed him off after half an hour, told him I was going to read my book. :) (Well, at least I was telling the truth.)He's offered me a backrub, and asked for my phone number. I told him I didn't think my FIANCE' would appreciate that very much. He had the gall to say "Well, you aren't married yet..." He was telling me about how much he's going to get back on his tax return this year, and said he was thinking about buying a computer. He asked what kind I thought he should buy. I told him "Dude, get a Dell!" Ok, so that isn't EXACTLY what I said, but you get the drift... Anyway, I was too nice to him. During the two hours he was talking my ear off, I was going onto the Dell site and helping him pick out a computer and accessories. I also got him thinking about taking a couple of classes at the college, to learn how to USE his new computer (and hopefully meet a girl). Now he won't leave me alone! That's what I get for being nice, I guess...
He just stopped in and gave me this little plush dog that wolf whistles when you press his belly! What am I going to do when Jim gets here in a few minutes!!!....
