V-Day Delights...


Valentine's Day is tomorrow. Are you ready? For what, you ask? Well for all of the faces of the hopeful...those waiting at their work place. For whom? For what? Well duh, for the most sought after, looked for, hoped for person of the day - THE FLORAL DELIVERY PERSON!! Every single time the door opens tomorrow, the masses will wait and hope with baited breath...eyes will widen and swing to and fro and then zero in on the door...all waiting to see who will receive the first/next/best/biggest/ delivery. Roses, tulips, orchids, lilies and that's not all. Stuffed animals, boxes of chocolates and balloons of various colors/sizes/shapes will be arriving en masse.
Oh and it's not just the workplace that will have this influx of floral bouquets. High Schools will be even worse, I mean will see even more deliveries. Flowers, baskets, balloons, banners and posters! And the various school organizations gets in on this heavy. Cue the PA... "FOR $3.00 YOU CAN HAVE A ROSE DELIVERED TO YOUR SECRET CRUSH DURING THE DAY. ALL PROCEEDS BENEFIT YOUR STUDENT GOVERNMENT ASSOCIATION"      Now after that announcement, maaaaannnn the students are watching the door in each one of their classes...waiting and speculating on who will be receiving a rose (Ha! Don't believe me. How many of you watch or know of a show about who receives a flower? IJS)
And then it happens (cue the PA again) "MRS. JOHNSON? WILL YOU PLEASE SEND TIFFANY DAVIS TO THE OFFICE?"  This announcement is met with oooohs and whispers and speculation as to why Tiffany is being called to the office. Tiffany herself wonders...panics? Is she in trouble?! Did something hap-and then she remembers what day it is. IT'S VALENTINE'S DAY!!!! Now she can't get out the door and to the office fast enough! When she returns she's not empty handed. Oh no, not even close!
She comes back to class, arms laden with a vase of roses, a teddy bear that's at least 4 feet tall, a dozen heart-shaped balloons, a box of chocolates...and the biggest toothpaste-commercial smile ever!!!image.png
HAHAHAHAHAHA! Ok I will behave...is this better?

This year, I decided to do something a little different for Valentine's Day. I am taking VACATION!! That's right! I will NOT be in the office tomorrow. I will not be waiting with baited breath for a floral delivery or any other sort of delivery. I will be on VACATION. Where am I going? Oh, I'm not going anywhere. I just took the day off to give folks a reason to speculate. I figure it's MY gift to them.
XOXO,

Oscar Chronicles - All By Myself

  Hola, mis amigos. I'm not going to ask if you missed me because - well, I already know you did. But more than that, I'm not going to ask because I'm sad, angry and hungry. Okay, perhaps I'm always interested in some snacks...Anyway, your Oscar is sad. Why? Is because a couple of weeks ago mi persona favorito decided to remodel his room. No really! He took all of the things out of the room - even my bed! At first I was angry thinking that he was kicking me out! He even took down his posters and emptied his closet! But then I started seeing him bringing some stuff back. Several pairs of his zapatos, some shirts and chaquetas. Some things he even put in the basura! Things that were too small or too old - you know how they do, right? So yes,  A MAJOR CLEANING. His room was like SUPER CLEAN.  He and his Papa also bought in new stuff. New zapatos, shirts, pants. The new stuff he put into a new bag. Nice! Good storage. It even has wheels!! So he can move it around a lot easi...

POP QUIZ

You guys ever take one of those online quizzes? " WHAT YOUR FAVORITE COLOR SAYS ABOUT YOU" ... Or the ones about your astrological sign?  "WHAT MAKES A CANCER HAPPY?". .. "IF YOU'RE A PISCES YOU ARE THE ROMANTIC TYPE"   If you did, were the results accurate? I mean did they fit you and your personality? I've taken a few of these sorts of quizzes - just for fun. Astrology? Yeah, I've read my horoscope from time to time. Most of the time the results and the astrological stuff kinda fit and sometimes I'm like - hmm, that is SOOOOO not me. Either way, they usually make me think wow, am I really like that? I took a personality quiz - basically it was to determine if you are left-brained or right-brained. Most agree now that there isn't a clear distinction and that most people have traits/characteristics of both. Here are my results...pretty good but definitely missing a few Like there was nothing mentioned about me being artistic or imagin...

Golden Haze

There I was...minding my own business (no really, I was - this time) thought I'd do some note taking, some observing (okay maybe not completely minding my own business), get some ideas for some posts...and the craziest thing happened. I started noticing a few people walk by my table, look at me - stare at me really, some snickered, some outright laughed. I was thinking sheesh, what's up? No one said anything - just looked at me, looked down at my table, looked at me, laughed or chuckled and walked away...that was until this guy walked over and sat down next to me. Immediately, my internal alert system went into overdrive!!! STRANGER DANGER!!! Then he says the craziest thing to me... Stranger: Hey, yeah so are you here regularly?  (ALARM IS GETTING LOUDER)  Me: Excuse me? Stranger: Nah, I'm just saying if you're here like on the reg, and you're bold enough to advertise the merch I'm straight going to switch my loyalty to you.  Me: DAFUQ!  (INTER...
