Bits of Randomness…

Obviously trying to work a full day after spending more days that I can count goofing off is expecting too much.
Especially when it’s Friday.

So, I’m not going to.

Randomness #1
When the Boss Lady left, she left behind a cutting from a plant for the new guy.  She wanted him to have something green in his office.  Knowing that the new guy wouldn’t keep something alive, let alone a cutting that would eventually require planting, I grabbed it and stuck it at my desk.  After I finished cleaning up the rest of her office I took a good look at the cutting.  Hhhmmm…the roots were turning black.  Not a good sign. 
So I dumped the water out, gave it fresh water and stuck a bit of paper towel in the vase.
Since then, it has grown several sets of new roots and it popping out a new leaf!  Pretty soon it will be ready for actual dirt!  It’s due to that little bit of paper towel.  I don’t know why I put it in the vase; it’s something my grandmother taught me to do.  All I know is it works, and soon I will have a new plant!  Now I just have to name it.

Randomness #2
I was talking to someone about my new position and the fact I am moving to another building.  This will be my 5th building and technically my 5th position in under three years with the same company.  The person I was talking to had also moved around a lot (of course he has been with the company considerably longer) and asked me if I like where I am going.  I said yes, and that I really didn’t like my current floor. 
Right after I said that, the crazy lady who sits across from me gasped. 
I wanted to call her on it, but I didn’t.  After all I won’t be sitting across from her for much longer (YEAH!)

Randomness #3
What Kind of Dog are You?
I had no idea I was a Shar-Pei!
