Today was just a plain old Tuesday. Nothing exciting in the cards, so I thought. I didn't really find that much out of sorts. I did not understand why Josie was staying until 2 when she was taking a half day. I know we are amazing and everyone wants to eat lunch with us, but she has been so excited to see her girls, the less she is at "The Wide", the closer she gets to see them. Something I missed was Sam. I saw her heading to the bathroom, wrong, I was so wrong. She had her purse and her phone so I thought she wasn't staying for lunch. I questioned her and she said something about a faulty bladder due to pregnancy. I believed her and she actually followed through and basically went into the bathroom and then walked back out. Now, TMI for some, but I pee quicker then most males, so that was astonishing to me how fast she got out of the stall! I went back to my desk, noticed a few people were missing but carried on with my work. I noticed Michael had tried to call me so I called him back. In the dialing process, Josie came over and asked me to go to lunch. Now, we go everyday between 12:25-12:30. It was 12:15 AND the rest of our crew was not with her. Then, I decided to be inquisitive. Why? I have no idea. For once I started asking questions. Where everyone was at? Why didn't Josie have her PB and J lunch with her? Where was everyone? Why we had to go to the 4th floor for a soda pop? Of course today, I decide to be aware of things around me. After we passed the break room on the 4th floor and I got all confused, we opened the door to a conference room. There, with their smiling faces, were my amazing co-workers. In the corner, stood a "life size" cardboard cut out of Edward, Jacob and Bella. At first, it scared me but then I believe I turned a tomato red and flushed. They threw a "New Moon" lunch-in. We munched on some very delicious pizza and some very tasty cake! There were even New Moon napkins. I still feel completely embarrassed and still turn red at the thought they did this for me. I don't think I deserved it and I don't think I did anything to be given such a wonderful gift. They are just amazing and very sweet. I will tell a lie, we did take photos with it! I think one involved me biting Edward and another one I was basically jumping on him! Then came the fun part. Having the 6 foot cutout in my cubicle. You would not believe the conversations and requests I had. I had 1 person ask if they could come by and pet it randomly throughout the remainder of the day. I had someone ask if they could lick it, someone else ask if they could kiss it, and even one person asked if they could take into an enclave for 2 minutes. I had 10 people at least, take photos of it or take photos of themselves with it! It was definitely a conversation starter. Met quite a few new people on my floor this afternoon. I got to know some people more then I would have ever wanted to. Somethings people really need to keep private. Examples: dreams and fantasies. It was somewhat nice to see people my age drooling over it though. At least I am not alone in Twilight Saga obsession/mania. The rest of the day I felt that I got nothing done. People just kept coming over and commenting. All in good fun. I did get a good ole JerBear laugh! Mike sure enjoyed watching me carry it out of the building. I did place it in the front seat next to me. I got quite a few stares all the way down Ingersoll. I moved it to the back seat when Jacob (my son, not the werewolf), entered the car. He kept laughing in the back seat. When I got home, I had to figure out the perfect way for Michael to find out that I had received this. I struggled between in the closet so when he went to change it would scare the "hiss" out of him or maybe behind the Christmas tree. I did place the trio behind the Christmas tree, maybe a new holiday card? I eventually landed on, in the bed. That is every girls fantasy right? He went upstairs when he got home and all I heard was "SARAH!" First off, he thought I bought it. Then I told him the story and he just laughed. He then told me to get it out of the bed and that it better not surface there again! He did comment that if he woke up in the middle of the night or in the morning and it is anywhere in bed, at the end of the bed, above the bed, or me on the floor with it, he would take it away, along with the rest of my gear! I am getting an odd look while I am typing this. Maybe because I am wearing my Twilight shirt from last year and drinking from my new New Moon mug! This made my week even better! I have a feeling I am going to be extremely hyper Thursday. This is me apologizing in advance!
Thanks again to my amazing co-workers! I didn't deserve this but I appreciate it! I love you all and you make that place worth going into everyday! It wouldn't be the same without you all and I am thankful everyday for you all to be in my lives! I am truly blessed!
3 days!
