Giving back the ring

I was listening to the radio this morning and one of the DJ's brought up an interesting subject. Apparently one of her girlfriends is debating on whether or not she should give her engagement ring back because her fiance and her have broken up, and the DJ is asking for listener's advice. I know the public's answer to this question, since this question was proposed before on another radio station about six months ago.

The way i see it is this, it really depends on why or how the relationship ended.

Was it something she did or something he did? did he/she do something horribly wrong to make the other person break up the relationship? or was it just because the person changed their mind and want to opt out, and if this is the case, does it matter whether it was the girl or the guy that ended things, and on what terms...very hard to say.

And one last, but important bit of information: the woman's ex cheated on her so she broke up with him. What do you think now? have your opinion changed?

Let me know what you think.

Cube

My cubicle is beginning to look like my room...what a mess! Clutters everywhere and no matter how hard I try to keep the place clean, it somehow gets messy again within a day or two. I am always amazed by some of my coworkers who have absolutely nothing on their desks, and everything is where it should be. How'd they do that?

Having said that, I got to work today and tried to tidy what i can. Its alot better now...i can move my chair and not roll over anything which is nice.

Here is a tip when cleaning your cubicle: What you can't throw out, just relocate ;o)

Now this isn't magic

Another thing that i saw last nite that made me go "whoa" was watching the ice-cream VENDING MACHINE! I didn't even know they made those. anyways, i found it fascinating to watch the freezer door inside the machine pop open, then comes a vaccuum that sucks up the ice-cream that i had selected, and then dropping it in the pick up box below. yeah yeah...so i enjoy the finer things in life...."sue" me ;)

PS. I smuggled an icecream sandwich into the theatre. yeah yeah sue me again...

Went to see a Magic Show yesterday. Pretty neat. I figured out some of the magic tricks, while others got me saying, "Hey, how they do that??" I liked the one where the magician made the pretty lady disappear from the box...and poof...reappears in back of the theatre with the audience. and all the kids went "Whoa...." with their mouths dropped open.

I noticed that magicians always have a box in their act and they always look abit odd. I guess its part of the "illusion" to make you believe. Anyways, I was also able to get all of us that went a plastic firemen's hat. I am officially a "Burnaby Junior Fire Chief !" Woo whoo !

It's Snowing Cats and Dogs...

and so i am home now. Work send everyone home at noon.

Traffic was crazy this morning....took me 45 minutes to get to work. After all that we were all sent home 2 hours later. Skating rinks are everywhere. Messy!

Wet Bums

Happy New Year !!

My family and I went for dim sum this morning. The restaurant was quite busy but we were able to get a table within 20 minutes...not bad. So we all sat down.

Dum dum dum. 30 seconds later my bros both darted up their seats and said, "My butts all wet !!" and they didn't pee in their pants. I looked down at my seat (since i haven't sat down yet) and noticed that my seat was already wet too. So everyone switched chairs, but shortly after that we again discovered that our butts were wet...What is the deal?? the chairs looked dry prior to us parking our tooshies on it. We called over the manager to asked what was going on. As it turns out, the restaurant had just "powerwashed" all the chairs the night before (new year's eve, what a lovely time to wash 'em chairs) and apparently the chairs haven't completely dried from the inside. The foam inside the seat acted like a sponge. The manager insisted that the water was clean, she even went as far as saying that the stains were definitely not pee.

So for the rest of our meal we all sat on white table cloths/napkins. What is even more funny is seeing other people with wet butts. The table right next to us were sitting on wet chairs for at least a half an hour before they felt anything. Let just say i am sure that the damage can be seen from a mile away. :)
