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

Podcast #1

Yay! I've finally figured out how to get the recordings to show up on my blog. So this one is a actually a test recording. But I'm playing around here, so don't expect radio quality...at least not yet 😜 This first one is a recording of a post currently up on my blog titled Hostage Negotiations. May just add the recorded versions for those who'd rather listen than read. Plus, this new app has some pretty nifty features that I cannot wait to try out! Hostage podcast Peace, Mackgurl

Being Strong Is Not for the Weak

Sometimes you may get tired and fed up. I mean come on, life has a way of testing you…and I mean way worse than any pop quiz you might have had. Sometimes the test starts small. Broke a nail after a fresh manicure? Hit your shin on the corner of the bed? (ouch). Then maybe it ramps up to you dropping your brand new cell phone face down on the pavement…while trying to put on the screen protector. Ugh! That sucks, right? Then there are household bills...sure you have some, right? Yeah, they eat away a good chunk of your paycheck but you’re managing. Then a major appliance dies…then some shingles fall off your roof.. Sucks but ok. It seems like one thing after another after another. Sigh... but somehow you’re standing strong and making do, holding on. And then…car issues start happening…flat tires, brakes need replacing and then transmission blows! What?!! But you’ve got to be strong right? You’re an adult and you can and have to deal with these things. You can manage, right? Yeah? So w
