It’s official! Girl Friday is back for more administrative hijinx!
My two-month anniversary for gainful employment will be this Friday! Purely coincidentally, The Pink Fairy will be here to help me celebrate properly. Her Irish mirth will make this the best St. Patrick’s Day ever! I know Guinness is Good For You and all, but The Pink Fairy is (mostly) here for business. I’ll be her eager chauffer over the weekend as she heads down to an open casting call in L.A. for Project Runway. Don’t make me kick your ass, Heidi. I know you’re like nine feet of German engineering, but I’m not afraid of you. I am, after all, the Superheroine of Small Offices Everywhere! Okay, so I’m not living the high-flying life of a viper pilot temp anymore, but I haven’t yet earned the illusive title of Superheroine of All Things New and Exciting. A girl’s got to have a goal.
Speaking of goals, I have a few for this week:
I vow on a holy stack of Superheroine’s Code of Ethics that I will not be annoyed by my coworkers, and instead transcend to a higher plane of wisdom and patience; apply my make-up in the bathroom, and instead wake-up on time and do it at home like a proper girl should; roll my eyes when the buck has been passed to me, it happens so often I really should just get over it already; spend more than half the day, okay three quarters, browsing the net when I should be shuffling papers from one pile to another.
That’s quite a hefty list of slacking limitations I’ve set for myself.
I am proud to be a paragon of office protocol!
I’m so glad that girl friday is back. Absolutely no one else makes me feel better about losing my mind and my youth to office work. So they still haven’t exactly announced the location for this weekend, haha. I’m so excited to come and see you. I’m bringing my green body glitter for St. Patty’s. After all, if I didn’t bring body glitter, I don’t think you’d recognize me as the same gal you always knew 🙂
Body glitter!!!!!! Ah! That’s my girl!
