PPPSS:

(This post is a continuation of this post)

Does anyone else ever get the desire to go to a Bridal Gown shop and try on dresses again... I think I picked too soon the first time. 

I'd still have gotten my dress...

but it was only the 2nd I tried on....

I want to wear more pretty dresses... 

like this number: 

Oh to just put this on.....

It'd probably accentuate my hips anyway right?

Right

Love,

That time I posted 3 posts in 2 weeks

Sorry Friends... I've been feeling uninspired.  

I've got some recipes to share... but need to take pics of me making them first. 

I could tell you about our Halloween plans.

but we have none

including no costume... 

even though we're going to a party this weekend... a costume party

I could tell you about wedding stuff...

but there's not much to share on that front...at least not right now

I did get a preview of the pictures from my first wedding!  So great! And I got a nice "shout out" on the photog's blog!

We ate our dog for breakfast today 

not litterally

just making sure you're paying attention

(we ate waffles... our dog's nickname is Waffles... )

PS.  When I was googleing this picture there were a crap ton of pics with hot dogs wrapped in waffles.... 

for realz! We wonder why America is fat.

PPS: Blogger is not accepting "google" as a real word...

Happy Friday Folks!

Maybe next week will bring more exciting posts!

Don't worry, we're all hoping for that!

Love,

The Day I Discovered Our Dog Is An Acrobat

So last night I am sitting on the couch by myself.
Husband has gone to bed because he's tired...
I am still up because the TV has a hold on me... I MUST know what happened on Cake Boss this week!

I joke.

But it is what I was watching.

Anywho.  I'm sitting there minding my biz, watching the tube with my legs propped on the ottoman.  Thinking "this is sooo not worth losing 30 minutes of beauty sleep, but I just don't want to go to bed yet."

I have a tiny dog under my legs on the floor (he likes caves) and a very large dog next to my legs doing her normal contortionist act.  You see, she likes to have her rump in the air while her ear is to the ground and she is simultaneously playing with her bone/ball/kong... she's not discriminatory on the toy.

So I'm pretty much ignoring her.

Because it was cute at first, but now, I just REALLY gotta know what Buddy's saying on the tube.

But then something glorious happens.

Sweet Daisy's rump must have gotten a mind of its own because before she could figure out what she was doing to herself her little feet were in the air and on the ground again--- on the OTHER side of her head.

That's right my bloggie friends, Daisy did a somersault.  All by herself.

Then she ran away from the location of the accident and stared at it like it was somehow the carpet's fault she projected her legs over her head. 

Momma couldn't be prouder. (as she cries she's laughing so hard)

Love,

Susie Q. 

Maddening!

OK, so USUALLY I try to not talk about work on the Blog... I mean really, the life of an assistant is not that interesting...

that's a lie

it is like, REALLY amazing stories of incredibly weird situations...

but I've been sworn to secrecy  I signed an NDA (nondisclosure agreement)

Anywho, I don't think this will violate anything so here we go.

So there's this dude in my office... lets call him Peter Robinson... or PR for short.

PR wrote me an email today asking for flights to NYC next week.  I book everyone's travel, I have no problem with it. But this is what he writes:

Though I’d rather not have to, I need to go to NY and back on Tuesday, Oct. 11.  Can you book me flight 1586 up, and flight 486 back?  Thx.

OK, 1) I don't care if you want to or not. 2) you actually really don't have to... you are not required to be there

3) There is no flight 486

Dear PR:

I do not see a flight 486, could you have meant a different number?  What time does the flight take off?  I'll just find it that way. 

So he writes back...

Sorry, can you get me on #2374, please.

Ya'll....

There is NO flight #2374...(not to mention how does flight 2374 turn into flight 486??)

So I walk to PR's office, tell him there is also no flight 2374 and ask him what time he wants to take off from NYC.

He tells me - I book the flights

I send him the itinerary, tell him that's all he'll need since he'll be taking cabs and not staying overnight there is no point in me preparing a separate itinerary, blah blah blah.

He writes back...

Thanks!  I wish there was a flight leaving later that would get me in at 10:30ish…oh well.

so I write:

I’m sorry, you requested flight 1586 --- that’s what I booked.  Do you want me to change it?

He writes:

No, I’m good.  The next flight doesn’t get me in until 11, and that’s too late…

Here's the thing... I don't understand why I need to know you're not happy with the flights that YOU REQUESTED.  Why can't you just say thank you and be done?????

Then he came up to me to explain to me that traffic getting to the airport from his house that early is going to be terrible and he's going to have to wake up and leave the house by 5 blah blah blah....

Dude... YOU ASKED FOR THIS FLIGHT.

I am not a magician.

Maybe it will be delayed 30 minutes and you'll get in exactly when you want to....

I don't know what else to tell you.

Sorry

The end.

I feel better now.

Love Susie Q

Maybe I'm overreacting.... but maybe not.

WOW

I've not posted all week...

My bad!

Well it's partially because there is not much to update the world on.

I worked ALL weekend last weekend.

It was wonderful, Glorious!

Everything went just the way it was supposed to....

aside from turning into a zombie for the first half of this week.

Hence no blogging

Fail.

my apologies

In other news:

While I was "bringing home the bacon", "earning some cheddar", "Making dolla,dolla bills ya'll"... (No?)

Husband was chillin like a villian playing some golf, doing laundry (thanks hubby!), watching football, and indulging in some beers....

Essentially being a man.

I like men.

Husband in particular.

That's all I've got for today folks!

Maybe my brain will un-mush itself by tomorrow....

Love,

Susie Q
