So we know its been awhile since our last post but shit, we've been busy. The past week has brought us much joy and pain, sunshine and rain. We lost someone in Special Ops, well she wasn't really "in" Special Ops, more on the outskirts, closer to the border. RIP Burrito Hands! With her departure came a little pain as the girls were stuck with her workload. However, we all banned together and formed a mega transformer and got the shit done. Eat your heart out Robocon!!!
Jen had a really bad day yesterday when she broke the heel on her brand new Manolo. She was mucho sad and we mourned her loss. This will warrant a trip to the cobbler. The day got more interesting when Jen and I were invited to take shots of Chinese moonshine...yes at the office. It was grossssssssssssssssss. We were hungover by noon. Good times.
Today we capped off the week with lunch boozies and queso. It's beautimus outside, so we are getting ready to head home and enjoy our weekend. Jen is organizing her closet tonight and I am cleaning out my dresser. The rest of the weekend will be spent being awesome, as usual. Peace out!

Table for Douche, Please
The workday started to drag, so Harms and I decided to get out of the office for lunch. After some debating we settled on Chili's at the Galleria. There is something about watching the desperate housewives of Houston and truant children shopping in the middle of the day. The hostess greeted us and brought us to our table. We didn't know it then, but we were about to bear witness to the biggest douche on US soil.
The douche in question was a Ginger with full on red facial hair. His guest seemed to be a nice lady, but we never heard her get a word in edge wise. He dominated the conversation from the get go, starting off with why she was so "lucky" to be with him. She looked thrilled. He then proceeded to tell her what a "hoss" he was at the office. We're quite sure he's just the mail guy. He rounded out the conversation with the reasons behind his recent break-up. None of them were his fault of course. This might be the last time this poor lady utilizes the services of eHarmony. I thought Harms was going to bitch slap him, but luckily our attention was diverted to something else...
Harms exploited my unhealthy obsession with grey-haired men by pointing out the older gentleman sitting to her right. I slowly looked over to find what could only be described as a cross between David Letterman and Harry Potter. We waited for him to show us his wizardry, but we were denied. The check came, and I pulled the ole "I forgot my wallet" routine. Success! But Harms is the shit, and she paid for lunch. I'll get her ass next week.
If we learned anything from this, it would be...if you have red hair, don't be douche in public. And don't forget to tip your waitress.

and so are the days of our lives...
Our posse is in full effect today. All members are present and accounted for. Parkie made a cameo this morning and he looked dapper. Harms and I busted our humps to get our work done early so we could spend the remainder of the day being worshipped without interruption. So far, so good. After lunch we enjoyed a little retail therapy and then headed back to the office where we were greeted with applause and gifts.
We ventured up to the tenth floor where we ran into Chuckie B. He asked us to smell him, and he did not smell like wet dog. We moseyed on down the hall to Bearkat's desk where Harms stole her Nutter Butter. I'm glad Bearkat did not shank her. We chatted about anything and nothing at all. We tried to convince her to chop off her mane, but she was c-c-cold as ice. Rejected!
The coolness on the tenth floor is limited, so we headed back to Special Ops. We made a pit stop at Cary's desk where we found him erecting a rocket ship. The nerd talk was beyond us, so we busted a U-ie. Back at home base, Tyler came over to discuss his low threshold for pain. He donated blood. It's the ol' stripper with a heart of gold act.
The day is almost over and like sands through the hourglass, so are the days of our lives...

Holdin' Down the Fort
Harms and I spent the first part of the morning enjoying kolaches in Tyler's office. He had a stack of ones from his moonlighting gig at Hunk-O-Mania. He offered to buy if we drove. Hells yes! After kolache time, we ventured upstairs, gave Chuckie B. suck-its and visited with Bearkat. Bearkat was in full on professional mode, so we said Peace Out and went back to Special Ops.
I kicked off the All Request Hour with Rick Astley's Never Gonna Give You Up. After spinnin' some tunes, we started a contest to see who could drink the most water without going to the bathroom. That lasted for about 10 minutes before Harms decided to go home.
So, here I am alone holding down the fort in Special Ops. Parkie is schmoozing and boozing somewhere with clients. Harms went home sick, and I am sad. We are like Tonto and The Lone Ranger…although neither one of us really resembles an Indian. Well, maybe I do. Perhaps we are more like Crockett and Tubbs. They had a bitchin’ sense of style and they meant business. We don't carry guns, but we are armed with our awesomeness. Not to mention Harms has a fierce Buffalo Stance. I would not want to run into her in a dark alley.

South of the Border
In an effort to stay current on our espanol, Jen and I headed south of the border to Taco Bell for some lunch. Like any other outing we plan, this adventure was just as eventful.
Upon opening the doors, we were whisked away by the smell of burritos and well, mexicans. The decor of this particular TB was done in a pallet of fresco colors with your quintessential abstract art adorning the walls. Jen was quite taken with the one that looked like an Indian or a glacier, we weren't too sure.
The other patrons represented many walks of life. There were your lawn guys, a couple of teenagers, creepy business man and black lady. We quietly enjoyed our lunch whilst listening to the soothing sounds of adult contemporary music. Almost paradise, we're knocking on Heaven's door...
We were starving and our food couldn't come quick enough. Alas, we heard our number called, "# 2sebentine". We assumed he meant 217 and Jen headed up to grab our platters. We enjoyed our fine dining as we caught up on the last few days. Jen has been sick...I think she caught that Spanish Fly. We finished up and bid adios to our friends down south.
Our drive back to the office was leisurely. We chatted about how awesome we were. Que imponente! Jen located a parking spot right in the front next to the Asian mafia. They are our friends because Bearkat is Asian. Although we almost ran over Blanche from Golden Girls on our way into the office, our lunch was muy sabroso!

Gangsta's Paradise
So far it’s a slow day in Special Ops (our desk area). We’ve spent the majority of the morning being awesome. Harms rocked the All Request Hour with a little Rupert Holmes’ If You Like Pina Coladas. Well, Rupert, as a matter of fact I do! I countered her request with Bon Jovi’s Living on a Prayer.
Bearkat came down from on high and blessed us with her presence. It appears as though she is taking her diet seriously. She’s strapped with 5 lb ankle weights. You go, girl! We watched her lunge around our work space. We will have to hit up the prison workout routine later. Parkie is out of the office most likely laying his Keith Sweat on the clients. He is a smooth operator. He rounds out our Special Ops trio and we miss him today.
It’s time to make the rounds and let everyone adore us. This will definitely keep us busy until lunchtime.

Everyday is a rap video
Our day starts like most rap videos, my homie, Jen and I roll up in her Nissan Altima with Bone Thugs and Harmony's Crossroads playing in the background. Jen pulls the car into the parking garage placing her gat under the seat...no shoot um ups today. We remove our crip colored do' rags from our heads and prepare ourselves for the day ahead. We have been getting crunk off smoothies all morning.
We head inside our building giving our backup dancers a slight nod letting them know to chill till the next episode. Jen put her grillz up in her Coach bag as I tip a lil smoothie for my lost homies.
We open up the doors to the office with Notorious B.I.G. blaring overhead. We have arrived.
It appears as though are awesomeness proceeds us as people arrive to our desks bringing bottles of Cristal and a new leather gat holster for Jen. We allow them to bow at our feet then shoo them off, we have a business to run. Today we are making a flowchart of all the peeps in our organization, Jen and I of course are at the top.
Its midday and I head up stairs to our ab class. I find Jen and Bearkat already in their prison workout routine. I can see Bearkat's shank in her spandex pants, she may be ready to rumble.
Jen is doing pull-ups on the door jamb, she is so buff. Our instructor and arch nemesis enters the room ready to pump up the volume, Jen shoots her a stink eye. I am on high alert. I need to stay focused in case a brawl ensues. Class ends without incident, hopefully the rest of the day will too.
Jen and I are still tired after patrolling the hood last night.
We are waiting out the rest of the day. I know our backup dancers are hard at work on another fly routine to send us home to. Till then we are laid back with our mind on our money and our money on our minds.
