Administrative Assistant Appreciation Lunch

I'm always awkward in these situations. I don't take compliments or thank you's very well and then you add in a spice of outside of work interaction with work colleagues and you've officially placed me in my worst nightmare.

And so begins a day of polite smiles and awkward silences while food is being consumed.

getting ready

This is what my room looks like after I finish getting ready for a party. Clothes thrown pretty much everywhere, bed a complete mess, absolutely no order whatsoever. 

Despite all the fabric chaos I'm looking pretty put together. Ah, the wonders of being a woman...

Dear Internet,

I will miss Conan O'Brien on my tv set.

Love,

A

PS: Can we please get him back on it in 7 months?

Dear Conan O'Brien,

Oh Captain! My Captain!

A

"I must be myself. I cannot break myself any longer for you, or you. If you can love me for what I am, we shall be the happier. If you cannot, I will still seek to deserve that you should. I will not hide my tastes or aversions. I will so trust that what is deep is holy, that I will do strongly before the sun and moon whatever inly rejoices me, and the heart appoints. If you are noble, I will love you; if you are not, I will not hurt you and myself by hypocritical attentions. If you are true, but not in the same truth with me, cleave to your companions; I will seek my own. I do this not selfishly, but humbly and truly. It is alike your interest, and mine, and all men's, however long we have dwelt in lies, to live in truth. Does this sound harsh to-day? You will soon love what is dictated by your nature as well as mine, and, if we follow the truth, it will bring us out safe at last."

-Ralph Waldo Emerson

This sort of trumps it all for me...

Madonna and me

I started reading fourfour because of the endlessly entertaining ANTM recaps. I kept reading fourfour because of posts like the one above. I absolutely adore everything he does. Keep on keeping on, sir.

Thus ends my awkward show of internet love...
