I ... I think I'm conventionally good looking, though not "network TV attractive". I think it's mostly that this whole thing was hatched around the idea of girl-on-girl frolicking, and extending it beyond the original context is taking a while. That's actually how all of this has worked for me. Sex first, friendship later. My earlier attempts at heterosexual relationship were somewhat the opposite. The friendship came first and easily, the sex .. uh, well, in hindsight that part of it makes more sense now.
Well, I think the sex-first approach is typical of many relationships. It happened with me, although I was deeply intrigued by my gal from the outset and hoping it would turn out... pretty much as it has
So... what next with this one ? Do you get along at least in terms of hanging out and getting to know each other ?
I know, right? I feel genuinely disappointed that somebody in the office has such a lame sense of humor. Maybe one of our suppliers sent it or maybe it was a Christmas gift that somebody got and brought to work because they didn't want it in their home.
I don't know who actually brought the calendar. Old Economy Steve would have been the obvious candidate, but we had the calendar before he started with us. I can't figure out whose sense of humor is so banal they would like this. The technical people have highly quirky senses of humor, which rules out Good Boss Greg, Engineer Ed, Tech Sales Tom, and Ted Technician. It doesn't seem like something Boring Stories Bob would bring either. So that leaves either Production Chief Pete or one of the minions.
I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings, but I just really want to **** up this calendar.
You can't. They'll know you hate them. Somebody told me once they worked with someone for years in a big company. That person got a transfer and then took it upon themselves to tell everyone what they really thought of them,and it wasn't good. Then, in an independent and random quirk of God, the transfer was revoked.
Yay! Now that you've got the parenting thing on lockdown, you're discovering that you can still have a life!
I will be so delighted if young EZ's first words are "wubbah chicken?"
1. Yes, and we have much more to do.
2. What ?
That's also genius. We should coordinate something like that at my place. Sometimes Engineer Ed will break up these things by making some comment that completely distracts Bob and puts him on a whole different rail. "Holy ****, Bob, what happened to your shoes? It looks like a wolverine attacked you." Then Bob will start telling Ed about how shitty the shoes are and he's never buying that brand again and so on and Ed says "uh huh" and leaves and Bob goes back to his cubicle and starts working again.
Do it. I was giving serious advice and it helped us greatly. Just don't be too obvious.
