Care For Some Shaved Saran Wrap on Your Vasoline?
It’s been a long past few days. More so than usual. Chris’s aunts, and possible a cousin are coming to visit…..today! For ten days. They are crazy. Off their rockers. I’m a bit worried about it. Eeeee!
We have been cleaning non stop to get the house sparkling, but it always seems the more you clean, the more it gets messed up. Cleaning supplies everywhere.
We bought a new shower curtain, bath rugs, and decorative towels for our bathroom. We bought some rusty red pillows to accent the couch. Today I’m leaving early for work, to get a runner at linens & things. Hopefully. I feel like we still have a ton of work to do.
The highlight of my week was easy to pinpoint, but also one of the saddest times. Yesterday was mischief day. It was one of our favorite managers last day at work. His wife is the one pregnant with twins, a boy and a girl, and he just got a job doing investment. He was very cool, in a dorky sense. So all week I’ve been masterminding a paint friendly goodbye for his truck. Originally it was just New York Mike, Laura the bop, and me. Mike and I met at Rafferty’s at 12, and waited for Laura to get there from Nashville. Except we were thrown for a loop. Eric tried to out smart us by driving his wife’s truck to work since it’s a tradition to get slimed. Well after a bit of sluething, and asking certain people casual questions, we pinpointed the vechile of desire. He thought we wouldn’t do it to his wife’s car. Wrong. Eric kept watching us, even though he was working in the kitchen that day. So Mike went it and ate to distract him, and Laura and I started by putting Vasoline under the driver’s side handles. Then the saran wrap. Mike came out and started helping, and when Jessica and Sheena got off work, they helped finish up the wrapping, and started in with the shaving cream. He caught us, and watched us a few times. The people eating on the deck, and eveyrone driving by, was laughing and having a great time. It was awesome!
We signed him a card too, and in which I said:
Eric,
Hey beautiful! I hope this new job brings you all the joy that this job didn’t. Just remember us, and that you will be missed greatly. I want my gum back!
Lots of personal, and inside jokes. Beautiful is one of them, because everytime that James Blunt song comes on, he’ll start singing I’m beautiful. We always called him Erica, and his favorite line was, your gay. He’s awesome, and deserves it so much.

Bathroom
in this picture it seems the towels don’t match but in the mirror you can see that they match perfectly. I think it was the setting I took the picture on.
