Questions

At my day job (two days left and counting) we will sometimes play this game called "Would You Rather?" It starts off innocently enough, "Would you rather shake hands with someone who has just peed all over their hands (keeping in mind that urine is sterile) or with someone who just washed their hands in our sink (keeping in mind our water supply is the nasty lake across the road that adjoins the garbage dump)?" It usually continues on until it ends with everyone making gaggy faces and running away from the question.

This game is fun and is slowly spreading to the rest of my non-work life. It's really distubing to find out what people will or will not do given a particular choice. I am currently disappointed in myself because, given the choice, I chose shit-beer over opening a bottle of wine. This is because I plan to be camping after my last hurrah at the day job (two days left and counting) and I want to drink wine while camping, not shit-beer. Delayed gratification and what-not.

Now I sit and ponder what I would rather do with the rest of my evening...imagined-ping-pong or singing a Bee Gee song, complete with falsetto.

Moral of today's story: I'm out of bread. I'm out of eggs. I need to get groceries or a hen that cooks.

look in charge
