suspicious men

today the police were all over our building looking for a suspicious man. what made him suspicious, i do not know. all i know is that the event caused quite a bit of a buzz in my office. i don't know if they found him or not. they never did finish the story for us.

so i went to the breakroom for some water and there was a strawberry shortcake sitting there for everyone to share. i'm sure it was from some luncheon or meeting. so much food around here! anyways, i had wanted a little cake so i went to grab some and i had the weirdest experience. two women, yes a little heavy, started talking about me in the third person. like this:

"Oh, watch her. Watch what size her piece is"
"I bet she ain't gonna take no big piece"

I tried to ignore it but of course they kept at it and i grabbed a little piece and said, well, if you saw what i ate this weekend,you'd understand why i'm not grabbing a bigger piece.

I liked the fact that they weren't apologizing for their size but it felt weird to be picked on for being small.

i need to stop eating sweets all together. an impossibility it feels like. i need to join desserts anonymous.

i'm learning html at work. which is very cool and will help me in the future. i just know it.

meanwhile, my body is hurting everywhere.
