Well. Today was eventful.
I will draw it out and tell it from the start.
I woke up at 3 in the morning, badly needing the little girl's room. The storm that has been raging here since about Saturday was raging still, rain beating my window along other things... like twigs.
I tried to go back to sleep and woke up at 4:15. There was a rainbow when I went out, already dressed up to check the weather. (See picture.)
I was planning on going by bus, but my dad was nice enough to take me to my workplace by car, so I arrived at 5:30. The porter didn't even ask for my card. Obviously nobody would want to break in in that hellish weather so damn early in the morning.
Btw, they registered the wind at 162 km/hour at its strongest today morning.
So. I was the second one in. There was a lone guy, tech guy of course, doing the 24 hour chat thingy. We talked, as I felt safe enough to approach him. He is a nice tech guy, newbie like me and he is going to the Metal Fest. He is fun. ^^
Then people started to arrive. I was greeted by the hot tech guy (lip ring guy) and a few others. We had a few weird letters. I even had Cliff chatting with me. A nice start for a day, eh?
But the letters started to dwindle, so I went to the kitchen on my first break to eat. Guess who greeted me there.
Yup. Sylar/Smith was there. With some girls, chatting. I said hi guys. I must admit, since he wasn't around last week and the tech guys were so nice I pretty much moved on. So I did not freeze up. He said hi loudly back to me.
The letters were still dwindling, so I had time to run out to the tech guys to ask for advice and so on. We had fun, joked, etc.
And then someone told me they were giving out free candy in front of the building. (Last time they gave out crackers. We seem to get some of this attention. Nice, eh?) So I went down and got some, with melon flavor. Musk melon, to be precise.
It was yummy. Still is. So I wanted to do down again and get more. I asked the girls next to me if they wanted to come down, and finally one of them did. We went down, got some fresh air but she did not want to get TicTac, so we didn't.
Guess who was in the lift with us. Yup. Sylar incarnate. Then he announced to the girl he was with and to us too, I guess, that he was totally hyped up and he started shadow-boxing. Yup, that sound was my dreams crashing to the ground. I turned around, trying not to show the rolling of my eyes.
So. Went back. Still no mail. Waited for a long time, until I had to ask a billing question. The other girl next to me suggested asking someone from billing and stood up, making me follow her. She walked up to the billing line, looking for someone who had time. I saw Sylar from miles away. He was the first who stood up asking what kind... so my nice coworker said, oh, she needs some help about some billing issue.
Yup. She just introduced me and fixed me up with Sylar incarnate. Just like that. And he looked at me. As usual I blushed beet red and told him what was wrong.
He told me he had to see this. I said sure, follow me. And I went. And when I turned back I saw he was strolling to my workstation at a snail's pace. Ooops, I said. Nervous much?
Well. He looked, he explained, he said I was most welcome and went back. What an ass. Nope, not talking about his personality. Whoa.
I was snickering and grinning like an idiot for an hour.
And then I got another billing issue. Nobody in my department knew where to route the letter so...
I took a candy (I keep some rose hip candy - with vitamin C - with me, it is always handy when asking others for help... they help me more if I am nice... and it is always fun to say: I come bearing gifts) and went to... yup, Sylar. He asked the others, because they did not know either and after that he said: ok, just send it over to us and we will handle it.
And then I handed him the candy. He refused to take it but I did not take no, so he accepted it at last. Told him it was yummy and had vitamin C. He... smiled and said that was good.
Well. He is decidedly not my dreamguy. But he is decent. Or he was so far. He might be calling me the crazy bitch from hell tomorrow.
After this, I waited a few more hours without mail and then my shift ended.
Went to buy some yarn first and found some very very pretty ones. Like one I have been ogling for a long time in a shop. Yay!!
Then I bought some crystal beads for more rings... will have to make some piccies...
Then I went to the doc to get a neck ultrasound. Guess what. I have a lump in my neck. Once I will have free time I will go to the doc with all the results. A doc I select.
I wonder if they'll fire me when I take a month off to recuperate from the operation.
Then I came home and decided to blog before I make another ring and crochet something.
