Wonderfully Relaxing Vacation The vacation was good. I did nada. I did buy a hammock and a rope swing chair for about $200, and they're the best investments ever. After assembly and moving them under our backyard tree, I realized I should've saved some money and just bought two rope chairs as that is hella comfy for reading and relaxing. After spending most of the weekend hanging there, I look forward the spending the rest of the summer in there too. Other than that, we didn't get out and do much. We did go out on the boat with Dan's buddy Mike and his ex Penny. (We never met Penny as they hooked up while Dan and Mike stopped talking.) She's a somewhat cool girl, though it leaves me with more questions about Mike than answers. Dan described her as a spinner with a horse face. Well, that isn't entirely accurate. She's short with a small but not tiny body, spinner to me denotes super tiny, which looks rather hot on its own. From behind, I felt a little jealous approaching her, but I had to see her face. Dan's description wasn't accurate, she didn't look like a horse, she looked like a man! She had a bulbous nose, and a sort of 30 something balding executive structure going. It was bizzare. To top it all off, she's hella prissy, so the boating trip wasn't as much fun as it could be. The water was too choppy for me to tube, tubing just accentuated my headache from the motor, so we spent most of the time just lying around. It was relaxing, but Dan and I can't see what he sees in her. Of course, she could just be a beard, he's been on the suspect list for awhile now, but you never know with him. Dan and I also had a good time last night, the only time we really went out. We met with a Toledo couple in Ann Arbor at the Arbor brewpub. Overall, it was a good night. I managed to finish my big dark German beer and stink at darts. Dan was good enough to win the game for us as I can't throw worth a damn. Mostly, I stuck to conversation and being genial, which I think I did rather well. Personally, I think we all got along, so I'm hoping to get together with them to play something more than darts. ;) Hey, what can I say? She's a cute little brunette that looks like a math prof, and he looks like Alan Thicke. (Trust me, that's NOT a bad thing. I had a HUGE preteen crush on Mr. Thicke so it works for me. :D) In fact, he was more striking in person than in his pics, and I had a hard time not looking like a fool. Usually, I'm more into the women than the men, but in this case its a nearly equal attraction to both partners, which is awesome on my end. Anyway, should go back to work. The phone keeps ringing. Seems our system messed up during the last invoicing and everyone is getting a $1 late charge on their account. This leads to fun phone calls, as you can anticipate. Its the rich ones that piss me off, but I guess this is how they got rich in the first place, right? Probably not, but they can be real jerks about a fine that doesn't even cover half a gallon of gas these days. Arrrghh oh well. That's why I have this job, right? Daphne |
