Frankly Friday - Top Tens

Happy Friday everyone! It took all week to get here, but Friday is here at last. Time to wear your jeans and sneaks to work - if you're so lucky as to have casual Friday at your office. Just think, if you worked from home you could still be wearing your PJ's. Doing a little work, drinking a little coffee, watching some judge shows...Nice thought, huh? Well, no such luck for me. But that's ok because coming into the office usually provides me with some great blog fodder.

Top Ten Signs The Boss is on Vacation:

1. Everyday is casual Friday - Suits, ties, dress slacks and skirts have been replaced with jeans, sneaks and tee's.
2. The main lobby becomes the putting green with a par 4 play thru by the copier.
3. Conference room tables have been replaced with green felt poker tables.
4. Piped-in elevator music has been replaced with the musical stylings of DJ Bump n' Grind.
5. Rubber band wars!
6. Someone rides through the office on a bright red tricycle.
7. There's a spike in Twitter, MySpace and Facebook updates.
8. The water in the water cooler has been replaced with grape Kool-Aid.
9. Hulu is KING!
10. All cubicles have been transformed into Wii game hubs. Tennis anyone?

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...

Who are you? - Tra

I’m admittedly curious about, well, quite a few things. But perhaps I am the most interested in people. Why they do the things they do…their likes, dislikes, dreams and aspirations. Sooooooo I figured, why not ask a few people a few things about themselves. I’m going to try to convince , cajole, coerce , beg , ask a few people to take a few minutes to talk about their favorite subject - THEMSELVES. This is the first in what I hope will be many entries in the series WHO ARE YOU? My first victim , guinea pig, test subject, guest is Tra. I had the pleasure of interviewing him this afternoon. Here’s what he had to say: Mackgurl: Tra,thank you for agreeing to chat with me today. Tra: My pleasure. Mackgurl: Okay so no pressure just a few questions to help us learn about you. Ready? Tra: Ready Mackgurl: Great! First question. - What do you do? And by that I mean, for a living? Tra: I sell Kirby vacuums. Mackgurl: A salesman! Very nice! How...

You Don't Have To be so mean

Someone asked me the other day " hey, don't you ever get tired of being so happy and positive all the time? How can you be so NICE?" I was thrown! Ok maybe not completely since I've heard a little about this before. "You always have a smile on your face...you're so happy...you're so NICE to EVERYBODY...I really like talking to you...thank you for being so kind...-it's rare" Even though I've heard these comments before, it still surprises me a little. Not that people think I'm nice but that so many people experience the opposite - often enough that they are shocked enough to comment. Makes you, ok me, wonder why are so many people not nice? Just plain old mean? How do they get that way? Can't make me believe that people are born that way...hmm course i have a seen pictures of newborn babies with some pretty mean mugs. Looking like they've been here before and experienced all the atrocities of life ALREADY! But really - why? ...
