Day 121: T.G.I. ...Can't Hear You

Aha:
Friday afternoon was one of THE LONGEST afternoons at work. I was busy and all, but the hours just dragged. Anxious to get home and be free to do what I want for a couple days, I couldn't help but watch the clock. Sure enough time slowly passed, but pass it did and once 430 came I shot outta there like an absolute rocket!
I am thankful for Fridays, and especially Fridays after 430pm. I love having time to myself and my little family. We didn't have any major plans but I still look forward to the time we get to spend together--free from work and other responsibilities.

Haha:
Perhaps you'll not find this as funny as I did, but I overheard my boss answer his phone and this is how it went.
He: Hello?
(pause)
He: Can't hear you.
(click)
Me: (laughing)
He: What?
Me: Uh...did you really just hang up on them like that?
He: What was I supposed to say?
Me: Most people say, "I'm sorry, but I can't hear you. Can you try calling me back? I'm going to hang up now."
He: Oh, I just have no patience for calls like that.
I had the giggles so bad after that. The way he said, "Can't hear you." was just so blunt that it struck me absolutely funny. lol

Day 82: Happy People vs. Unhappy People

Aha:
There is almost no better sound in the world to me than Clinton's laugh. Whenever he talks with his former missionary companions I get to listen to it for a good hour or so.
Warms the cockles of my little heart.
I am so thankful to be married to such a happy person!

Haha:
Is it a rule that if you work for the Registry (Canadian DMV) or DMV you have to be cranky and irritable?
Seriously, I got to the Registry before Clinton arrived and told the clerk that he'd be here any minute.
She: Well, we close in 10 minutes so...I can't help if he's late.
Me: He should be here in less than 2 minutes.
She proceeds to take care of my transaction and is finishing up as Clinton approaches.
Me: Here he is!
She: Well, I've just finished with you so he'll have to wait in line.
Me: He's right here.
She: He has to wait in line.
Ok lady, next time I'll bring my red lipstick so I can give you the visual kiss your butt requires to get decent service.
