I used to work at an engineering firm and one day I saw one of the engineers leave at like 2pm on a Wednesday and he was like, "Bye, see you next week!" He had been busting his ass to finish a project and already hit his 40hrs for the week.
I was a temp at the time but needless to say, I jumped at the chance when they offered me a real job.
My one dog is very special. She likes to sleep with her head under the couch. She was not pleased when we got a new couch that her head wouldn't fit under. She sometimes runs into walls and falls off of sidewalks.
My other dog is entirely disinterested in toys. She does not play with them, ever.
I had a friend in high school who got squeamish at the sight of blood, or at least that's what we all thought. She went on to become a surgeon. Turns out, it's the idea of people being in pain that got to her. Operating on someone who's out cold was absolutely fine even if they're gushing blood all over the place, because they can't feel it.
It's not immediately obvious in the store, though I can't say I've been looking in the past decade or so. I'm from BC and my parents used to buy it while I was growing up.
This is me and my husband. I find the part about going through the pandemic together especially true. “After” the pandemic I never went back to the office and the number of coworkers I had who seemed to be flabbergasted that I wanted to stay at home was through the roof. They seemed genuinely confused that husband and I weren't dying to get away from each other.
I have to admit though, it may have become somewhat of a hostile work environment as my husband has been threatening to tell my boss about all the times I make fish for lunch.
Even if I somehow managed to outrun the stampede and climb the waterfall, I could never ever manage to beat Scar. Thank goodness for older siblings.
I once went on a school trip and practically the whole plane was filled with students. Must have sucked to have been the six other random people.
I snuck meds into cheese for my dog one time, and she is now forever suspicious of any and all cheese whether it's cubed, shredded, sliced, whatever.
Have you tried just looking young? My sister answered the door (of the house she owned) and it was some sales person who asked her if her parents were home. She said no and closed the door.
I'm also going to need some elbow room in case I need to dodge anything.
The Elders of the Internet know who I am??
Marcus Veltri (piano) and Rob Landes (violin) for anyone who's interested.
I'd also like to recommend Frank Tedesco for a similar kind of shtick but is funnier imo.
