Bestest Friend in the World

Today started out not so great. Actually it kind of started last night. I woke up at some point last night, and was a little disoriented. Couldn't figure out where I was at first. I figured it out and went back to sleep. Then I had a strange creepy dream. It was really creepy. I was at a reunion or something. This person came up to me and their face was covered in sores or something. There were a couple of different but the entire face was covered. The sores formed a clown face. And the eyes were not right either. Thinking about it now still creeps me out.

Needless to say I wasn't in the best of moods when I got up. I felt like I hadn't slept at all. So I went off to work. A couple of my co-workers have been emailing back and forth for the past couple of days. Well, my officemate shared one of the emails with my other officemate and myself today. This other person is in our department, and basically told my officemate that I need to "step it up" at work. Apparently she doesn't think I am doing as much as I could. Which really is a little funny. She apparently thinks I should be able to these 2 'tasks'. It's funny because I'm doing the 1 task I'm doing because she couldn't do both of them.

We've been doing some job analysis at work. A few weeks ago we recorded how much time we spent on the phone every day. In the 10 days that were used for date she had about 50 phone calls, for a total of 200+ minutes. I had I think close to 200 phone calls and I know my total was 500 and some odd minutes. And when she isn't able to do everything she is supposed to be doing, I have to do it. So, needless to say I was really torqued off.

This person also managed to tick off the other officemate in the same email. Actually the three people in my room (that includes me) were all unhappy with that email. I haven't been overly happy at work for...well, about a year now to be perfectly honest. This really didn't not want to make me stay. Was able to keep it to myself...well, I shared with my officemates, but we treated the writer the same as we normally do.

Anyway, I was not in a good mood this afternoon. Sometime after lunch today the receptionist called me and asked if I could come up front. I was like "oh crap". Figured I had done something wrong, and I really wasn't in the mood for it. I got up front and it turned out that I had received flowers! I kind of knew that they were coming, but hadn't expected them today.

A couple of days ago, my friend emailed and asked for my work address. But it was still nice to recieve some beautiful roses and vase. It was my first "Birth and Valentines day" present of the year. I was so much happier walking back to my office with flowers. :) It really made my day. I had a little bounce to my step.

I have the bestest friend in the world.
