I have some really great co-workers. Aside from having a standing game of Monopoly Deal, they are pretty nice guys and are fun to hang around after work and socialize with during happy hour. What makes them the best is that today I came into work late after flying in from Utah on a red eye. I made into work at 11:30 am. I had eaten McDonald's breakfast on the way home from the airport at 9:00 am. I took a quick nap and shower and headed to work.
I didn't bring any lunch hoping McDonald's and snacks would help me through the day. Well of course, it didn't. I had co-worker offer me a slice of leftover pepperoni pizza (which I ate), canned organic ravioli (which I passed on) and a half of turkey sandwich (which I ate).
It gave me warm fuzzies that my co-workers make sure I'm fed. I do get cranky when I'm hungry and they know to avoid that just like the hubster knows.
This reminds me of when I forgot my lunch money in middle school and my entire lunch table pooled their ice cream money together so I could buy lunch. I was such a sheltered child then. I remember crying because I had no lunch and was hungry. I never did say thank you them. So thanks to Patty, Krystal, Crystal, Lauren, Jen, Jenn, and Kristina! Better late than never. Ah ice cream money, I remember those days - mickey mouse ice cream bars, twin pops, fudgesicles, strawberry shortcake, ice cream sandwiches. Do schools still serve ice cream treats like that after lunch? Probably not with the obesity epidemic. That's too bad for today's kids because I'm sure kids weren't fat back then.
Wow, went off on a tangent there.
