Birthdays, Tacos, Bunnies, Mirrors

Just a few observations on today:

1.) Today is Katie's birthday (HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! You can leave her a birthday wish here) and so I was texting her because I'm picking up dinner from The Whole Enchilada to celebrate and I wanted to know if she wanted the tacos asada. And my predictive text does not know the word taco! TACO!!! The perfect food, and it's not in my cell phone's dictionary. I don't know if I've mentioned here how much I love tacos but I'm pretty sure that if I had to choose a meal to be stuck on a desert island with it would tacos.

2.) Do you know how many people are looking for clerical work in Commerce, CA? 324. Or, at least, that is how many resumes I have received today for the job I posted on Craigslist. Today! 324! My favorite resume so far was from a girl who put "Working as a cigarette girl at the Bunny Club in Las Vegas" under Applicable Work Experience.

3.) I have to get a new compact mirror for my purse because it is one that opens up and on one side is the regular friendly mirror and the other side is the magnifying mirror that hates me. Every time I open it all I can see are GIANT PORES and WRINKLY LIPS and GOOD HEAVENS IS THAT A ZIT OR A CANCEROUS LESION BECAUSE IT LOOKS TOO BIG TO BE JUST A ZIT. GREAT, I HAVE CANCER!

Ewwww, you own the love/hate mirror...dump it...it will mess with your head forever...unless you cut out a picture of...say...Renee Zellweger and glue it to the hate-side, then you'll always feel better about yourself...oh, that was mean wasn't it?...hmmmm, well then, put in a picture of Harry Connick Jr...you know, use your imagination, which is wonderful....And I'm curious what makes a cigarette-girl at the Bunny Club want to go legit, ya know?...good for her...are there any 3rd shift clerical duties out there?

If I lived in CA, I would want to be your fill-in at work whenever you were sick or needed a vacation. I never want to do that stuff full-time again, but I could really use a good laugh from time to time! :) I will live vicariously through you if that is ok.

#1 You're right about tacos. I could eat a taco if my hair was on fire.

#3 This is the exact reason I don't carry a mirror. If I'm outside, that's it. It's too late to fix anything.
