The Bulletin Board

There is a bulletin board on a chalkboard in my office/room that has this sayings spelled out with black, styrofoam letters. Every since I have started this job, they always fall down and annoy me. Well, I decided to take them off yesterday. While, I was taking them off, 1. I ripped one of them...no big deal because they are coming off anyway. As I was taking the last letter off, 2. the paper behind it ripped badly. Then in ripping off the paper, 3. the border ripped. It was a domino effect and I ended up having to rip the entire thing off and throw it all away. So, then we tried to put up new backing paper and 4. messed it up the first time.

SO, I decided to put up posters today on the backing paper, and as I was doing this, I had to rearrange the poster...guess what it did, ripped the backing paper...now I'm back at the beginning. Thorn in my side. I should have just left up the letters!!!

OHS's

I have decided to start a blog. Oh, what fun, right? Right! I assume this place is going to be one of random postings and events.


On to my first topic. O.H.S.’s. Oh yes, they came out every year around this time, and I happened to see them everywhere. And I really wonder who ever came up with them; I would like to just thank that person for making everyone look ridiculous. Oh yes, they are Oversized Holiday Sweaters. You know what kind I’m talking about. You normally see your Uncle Frank or your grandpa have one on and normally they even include a turtleneck or even worse a dickie! They are normally patterned, and don’t forget that they are always too big! I honestly thought that there had to be someone, just one person that could make them look good. This was put to the test last week, when I saw one of the most attractive guys I know wearing one. And the verdict is: it was absolutely terrible!!! NO ONE looks good in them. So, this holiday season, when you go to your closet and pick that OHS to go to your Christmas party, think long and hard about it. And as you decide to wear it anyway, know you will look ridiculous BUT wear it with pride as I will probably have one on as well…and say hi to your Uncle Frank for me…
