Thanks to this Beauty my feet are completely transformed. Someone who has a foot fetish would pay me to be sucking on my toes. I got mine at Sally's and they're only 10 bucks so if you have dry disguisting feet, get one. You'll be amazed. Not much else is going on. I'm still having camera problems or I would blog about cooler stuff, but this will have to do for now.

K Guys Don't Be Jealous, But.......

Do you believe in the Boogey Man?
Second: I helped Derrick move last weekend and most of you who know me know that I'm huge ( I think it runs in the family :) ) and like way tough so I thought carrying a microwave from point A to point B would be no problem. Well I must have underestimated how much force my hugeness puts things down with.... no screaming, nor swearing, nor crying was heard from me... out loud anyway.
And last, but not least
Third:
A Tribute to Master Beta
Some of you know him and some of you don't,but this is Master Beta and I believe he's on his last fin. Derrick and I bought him last Memorial Day and he's our love fish and if he dies.... *tear* our love dies! He's been a real trooper so far, but lately he just lays on the bottom of his tank or up on the top of his plant. I even bought him freeze dried blood worms because I know he loves worms, but he refuses to eat them. Maybe he needs a girlfriend...
So here's to you Master. I'll miss putting spoons in front of your face and watching your cheeks blow up and putting ice cubes in your water and watching you freak. I'm sorry about the time I was trying to get you out of your home and I dropped you on the floor. My piercing shrieks as I watched you flop around helplessly probably didn't help, but Derrick saved you and
you've seemed fine for the past few months, but now... you're just not the same. It's heart breaking because I just don't know what to do. I've thought about flushing you to put you out of your misery, but no! I won't give up on you! Pull through buddy! Pull through!

Do you know him? Does he call you at home?
me: Good morning! How may I direct your call?
customer: To Peter, please
me: He's on his phone right now, would you like his voicemail?
cusomer: No, I need to talk to him
Let's take a break for some commentary. Seriously, what kind of option do you think that answer leaves me with? Should I disguise my voice and pretend like I'm Peter so you feel like you're talking to him? Would that make you people happy?!!! So I answer like this...
me (still calm and collected): Well you could hold for a minute if you'd like.
customer: *sigh (so huge and exasperated that if a small dog were nearby it would blow away)* I guess.
me after a minute or so: He's still on the phone. Would you like to continue to hold?
customer: Well, do you know how long he'll be?
Hmmm.... Do you even know how long you'll be? Did you think you'd be on hold waiting to speak to Peter for this long? Nope ya didn't! But if you were wondering how you've suddenly put on those extra 20 pounds I'd be more than happy to tell you it's because you're difficult on the phone. You'd rather waste 5 minutes on hold and be irritated while you're munchin on your Doritos and swiggin a Pepsi than take a voicemail and use that extra time run a lap around your cubicle or do some butt clenches. Whew! Didn't see that one comin' did ya?! Life's full of curve balls, isnt it! So how the Helen Keller do you expect me to know how long someone else will be on the phone for? If you are a person who asks this question please stop. And really, I get asked this question enough that I'm thinking of putting mini shock collars on everyones phones and when 5 minutes is up I'll push a button that will shock the crap out of them so that they're forced to hang up. Then I'll have you're answer!
me (not calm at all cuz I've had it with dumb effers that day): I have no idea how long he'll be on the phone for. I don't know who he's talking to or what they're taking about. So you can hold or you can go to his voicemail. Those are your options.
customer: Uh... I'll take his voicemail.
me: Ok! One moment please.
And some of you may think I'm over exaggerating, but I'm dead serious. Nothing irritates me more that the "How long will he be" phone question. I understand that the customer really does need to speak to Peter, but he doesn't need to act like he's the #1 priority. I'm sure this isn't life or death. I work at a car dealership, not a hospital.
