Minions R Us

So judging from the pile o'work still on my desk that I get to play with tomorrow for a half day, I haven't really recovered from my vacation yet. But really, do I need to recover from meeting Tori Amos???? Nah...I'm just trying to get back into my life again. Back to being burried in work orders, being pulled into five thousand different directions and working more than I really should be.

After Christmas I'm putting a proposal into the high executive mucky mucks to get me a minion. Any takers? Pay is low, but guaranteed you will have this to look forward to:
1. Having coloured paperclips chucked at you
2. Drowning in a sea of blue paper
3. Laughing at the inepte"dude" - aka he who shall not be named
4. Covering reception more than you really want to
5. Cursing at enabling a certain program that keeps tossing you off(eeeww)each time you update it.
6. More filing than a human can do in four years
7. Cracking the whip
8. Being the office manager's "bitch"
9. Learning how to swear in sign language
9. More cakes than you can eat
11. The 25 lbs you will gain from eating said cakes.

Resume's will be accepted from now until mid January. E-mail to minionsrus@gophergirl.com (the publisher of this post takes no responsibility for those who try to e-mail me at this bogus address) :)

Tori is amazing

To carry on my obsession with Tori Amos, here is my picture of her and I at the meet and greet. I will have to purchase Photoshop to correct the colour as my little expensive camera doesn't seem to like dark lighting and I'm not an expert at adjusting it yet. Oh, well. You can make us both out, so I don't really care too much that the picture is not as perfect as I like (insert my slight obsessive perfectionism here). She was lovely, and gracious and spent at least five minutes with each of us. I couldn't have asked for a better experience.
