Gooberman lives!

Today was a fun day at work... my office assistant and my coordinator and I were just goofing off all day. I haven't laughed that hard in a long time, I must admit I laughed so hard I cried. With some of the really "stretching it" word play jokes and the almost insane conversations, I admit was a goober. Goober sounds like some sort of candy... sweet on the outside, nuts on the inside. We ordered Chinese for lunch with my boss and her OA... I had some more sushi, 4th time in the past 3 weeks... the only problem with sushi, it comes cut in either 6 or 8, and that is not always enough to eat. In the world of supersized meals (which I know is a huge contributor to the expanding waistline in this country), why can't sushi be supersized as well? At least it would be better the greasy fast foods. But it was delicious to eat. I am still looking for some sweet tasting sushi similar to what I had when I was on the island. My parents had some and said it was planton not banana as I originally thought. If anyone knows of where to get some, it would be a terrible thing to keep it a secret.

After lunch got to filling out my mileage report. I have slacked off so much with that report... it is for me to get more compensation yet that was not an incentive enough for me to turn one in since August. I tend to put it low on my priority list since I consistently take care of others (my employers, employees and others) before I think of myself. Not always the best way of thinking, but that's me. I finished my November and December reports ($145) thinking I would just do away with the Sept and Oct... but then was reminded my boss that in Sept and Oct, there were a lot of meetings outside my area which could accumulate even more extra gas money. At 48.5 cents a mile and driving to meetings 20 miles away can really add up. It is not that I really need the money, but extra money can never hurt. I didn't finish the report, so that is on top of my list for Tuesday (Monday is another holiday! woo-hoo!)

I went to blockbuster to use up my free rental, got home, watched some tv, took a nap. Glad to be able to coast into the weekend on a high note with no need to wake up early in the morning.
