On Sillly Conversations ...

So, I went to get coffee in the staff kitchen here, and met up with a couple of coworkers. For the sake of brevity - L and F. L is wearing a lovely red outfit today, so I complimented her on being bright and cheery. We had a conversation about bright and cheery clothing in the office and the effect it has, before F came in. He had been eating watermelon, and L said she had some earlier, but it made her wonder if perhaps she was pregnant for a second time. Melon bloat, gotta love it. F commented that there's always the possibility, to which L replied that she'd passed her deadline. About then, J came in, only to ask with some bemusement, "You have a deadline?" I chimed in with, "Apparently." L said she was too old to have children. "No way," I said, "I don't believe you, L. You can't possibly be old." She replied that she wasn't old, but she was passed her deadline. But she felt the same as she did 20 years ago. J blinked with surprise. "The same?" he said, "Not flirtier?" While L and I laughed, F commented, "It's like wines, only getting better with age." J chuckled and said, "Wines get flirtier with age too? Oh, I am so looking forward to getting older."

*rolls*

You know, I might never have heard it said better.

Okay, yes. That qualifies as amusing. *snicker*

I thought so. Even if my typos in that only prove that my head is full of cotton. Silly homonyms.

*snugs in sympathy* I so understand...

*sniffles pitiously*

Anyway, enough of that. Though I do appreciate the sympathy, really, I don't think I'll wallow in it.

I heard a rumour the lottery corporation is back up and running - certainly, I did buy tickets last night. Maybe I'll win?

*laugh* That would be nice...

I have a craving for an amaretto sour now, incidentally. Just so you know...

I'm telling you, roleplaying alcoholics 'R' us. ;)

Guess we should stock up for the weekend or something.

*snicker* Must have something to do with this thing called work...

Not a fan of work.

I'm beginning to think that I need to get drunk and /then/ trying to write my work report. It's just crazy enough to work...

*looks about the office* You wouldn't be alone.

Darn thing is one of those 4 letter words after all.

That's a good point...
