a chemistry treat

whoever said working in the chemistry building wasn’t exciting, clearly hasn’t visited my neck of the woods today.

so far today i have:

* eaten more than my share of “fun size” snickers
* had the opportunity to tell countless laffy taffy jokes that are really lame
* seen 2 witches walking down the hallway
* spent 10 minutes pushing my face against a window, while holding a sign that read, “i want to ride the snorklelift please!! just knock!” to the snorkle-men right on the other side
* been encouraged to dress scandalously in order to ride said snorklelift
* heard the f-bomb in conjunction with the word “boots” multiple times, when being told to dress scandalously, while standing in the company of my two bosses.

and three more things that made the day even better, that have nothing to do with the chemistry building:

* discovering the small whistle that came on my backpack, and then blowing it as nonchalantly as one can when walking in a crowd while blowing a whistle.
* wearing a shirt with “the endangered parrots of the world” shirt today, and getting made fun of because of it. also, telling jill that i had dressed as a parrot enthusiast for halloween made wearing the shirt even more spectacular.
* walking through the empty fountain outside the UC, and “splashing” around in the small pile of leaves that had collected inside it. i may or may not have gotten some looks.

i still have 2 more hours of work ahead of me. my fingers are crossed that there will be even more things to add to my list.
