My Thursday started off with my going for a good hard uphill run and then having a yummy breakfast of some bacon, a fried egg, and a piece of toast. Then I made Mrs. W's Chocolate-y Claire Cake for the cast party, packed, and left for A's house where I studied for the ACT, cleaned her car with her, and planted a huge bed of flowers. Oh, and sent scary pictures of us with blue hair to our boss, with the subject of the email being: "Micom advertising. Lizzie wants your input." Bwahaha. If that didn't surprise him, I don't know what would.
Then we left for the cast party, had a lovely time, came home, slept, woke up, had breakfast, and went into work. The Cards scored 6 or more runs, so we went to Mobil and got coffee. Well, I got hot cocoa with half&half, I got Mike a Revy with French Vanilla creamer, and Abby got Hazelnut Cappuccino with French Vanilla creamer. I had two vases of flowers, one of irises, and another with some cute purple wildflowers.
Mike started my day off with "your crash course in Quickbooks." Which happened to be bank statements for like the last 6 months or something. Then he decided he'd make me happy by telling me to go look at my shipping area. They brought back a 16ft box truck completely filled. And dumped it all in the back. *scary*. It was claustrophobic back there. He found a really old brown phone in one of the many boxes of office phones we got in, and he then he said the title of this post. Haha. :D So later when I found a cute peach colored phone about as old, I put it up on his desk.
The day was just wonderful. Everyone was in an awesome mood and just *happy*. I think it was the best day of work so far. I think I've already said that before. That's why the "so far" is in there.
Right before A. and I left for lunch, I asked my co-worker, Isaac, if he would mind stopping at Dairy Queen to get an ice cream cake for A. He said that he would, and Mike walked in at the end of our conversation and asked what we were talking about. Isaac told him, and he quickly said, "No, I'll take care of it. I was thinking that we'd go out to Applebee's for dinner."
My mouth probably dropped open. I was completely shocked that he had thought about it and was going to do a going-away party for A. Dude.
And we did. Everyone successfully pulled it off, and A. was completely FLOORED. Oh my. She almost started crying when Isaac told her what we were doing.
So yesterday was pretty great. My day was so good. And I don't think that A's last day could've been any better. God is good, and knows exactly what we need, even if Tuesday night I was freaking out and wondering how on earth I was going to make it through the week, nontheless get my license so quickly.
The brothers and I are spending the day working outside. Speaking of which, I need to go get to work. I've finished the flowerbeds in the front, but I need to plant sunflowers and work in the back flowerbeds while Jed is mowing.
Happy weekend to you all. I love you.
