battle royale

For the first time ever in years, I’ve called in sick to work.

Actually, let me rephrase. I woke up, feeling a touch of the flu and thought “this is bullshit”. I really want perfect attendance because that is the type of maniac that I am.

Anyway, the whole morning, I kept wavering back and forth between going to work and not going to work. After some inner deliberation, I decided to go to work but was running late because this deliberation took up a lot of time.

So I called in saying I was going to be late because I was deliberating about calling in sick. They told me to stay home but I said, “No, I think I can make it”

I was in worse shape than I thought. I literally FORGOT I was driving. I don’t know.

I sat in front of the computer and one of the lawyers came up to give me directions. I sort of just stared at him. My co-worker Kaytee told me to go home and that she would cover for me. That sweetheart.

I talked to the office manager. Go Home they said. And she added “You’ve never called in sick. Go home” and so I did.

I slept the day away pretty much. I had OCD with the computer and checked it a jillion times.

I woke up at 7 or 8 p.m. only to get an invitation to a dinner. I have not eaten all day, so it sounded tasty. Went to the dinner at 9.

Okay, so for most of you who read this, this won’t mean anything. However, I know there is a small population who will know what I am talking about. And this is what I request.

Don’t rat me out. Not yet.

Rat me out on what you say?

I went to this dinner and I was walking into the apartment (in slow motion of course)…I saw him.

The cutest guy ever.

Sitting on a black leather couch.

SIGH

I really don’t know his story. All I know is that he is the brother of the person (we’ll call him Scott for now) who invited me to the dinner. Of course, I was all casual and stuff but, I was practically DYING to ask a fellow female friend what his deal was.

anyway, I kicked his ass in chess and we watched some foreign films.

Which by the way, you TOTALLY have to see “Battle Royale”

It’s a mix between …what was it? The running man and Lord of the Rings…with Japanese students who still have high school crushes. Dude, you gotta see this.

I THINK, it’s a mix between Survivor and The Real World but that’s just me. But kids killing each other because you were not in the same clique or you had a crush on someone. Man.

Okay, I will have to do some more undercover investigating on cute guy.
