RACHEL,
I HAVE DECIDED TO TYPE THIS POST IN ALL CAPS. YOU KNOW, BECAUSE EVERYTHING I SAY IS THAT IMPORTANT.
THAT WAS INDEED THE MOST ADORABLE VIDEO I HAVE EVER SEEN. I DO BELIEVE MY HEART MAY HAVE SKIPPED A BEAT. IT DOESN'T DO THAT OFTEN. ONLY FOR EXTREME CUTENESS OR EXTREME NERVOUSNESS.
THIS IS ANOTHER VIDEO: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V3ouzt_4q_I. IT, HOWEVER, IS NOT FOR YOUR VIEWING. IT IS FOR THE VIEWING OF ONE ROBERT MORRISON VANCLEVE II. I TOLD HIM I WOULD SHARE THIS VIDEO WITH HIM, BUT AS I DO NOT HAVE FACEBOOK, I WAS IN A PICKLE. I DECIDED PUTTING IT ON HERE WOULD KILL TWO BIRDS WITH ONE STONE (WHICH I WOULD NEVER DO IN REAL LIFE) -- KEEP MY WORD TO HIM TO SHOW HIM THIS VIDEO, AND ALSO BRING HIM TO OUR BLOG SO THAT HE WILL START READING IT.
HE LEAVES FOR FIJI IN TWO DAYS. CRRRRRRRRRRAZY.
ARE YOU TIRED OF THE CAPS YET?
MY CEREAL GOT TOO SOGGY. I LIKE SOGGY CEREAL, BUT NOT THIS SOGGY. I GOT DISTRACTED FROM MY CEREAL CRUNCHING MUNCHING BECAUSE CLIENTS KEPT COMING TO THE WINDOW AND THE RECEPTIONIST IS NOT HERE. NO ONE IS HERE TODAY EXCEPT FOR LIKE TWO OTHER PEOPLE. BUT WE NORMALLY HAVE INTAKES ON WEDNESDAY MORNINGS, SO PEOPLE ARE COMING IN FOR ADVICE AND I AM TRYING TO GIVE THEM THE RIGHT INFORMATION. I'M ACTUALLY ROCKING IT, I FEEL EXTRA USEFUL. AS, YOU KNOW, I USUALLY FEEL USELESS AT WORK. MAYBE THAT'S WHY MY BOSS DOESN'T TAKE ME OUT TO A RELAXING LUNCH. THAT AND I ACCIDENTALLY BROKE THE RECEPTION WINDOW AS I WAS HELPING SOMEONE. I THINK I FIXED IT... MAYBE.
SARA BAREILLES IS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD. OF ANY SINGER, YOUR MUSIC REMINDS ME THE MOST OF HERS.
SOGGY.
I AM VOLUNTEERING AT CHRISTMAS CONFERENCE. IT'S BEEN FUN. I HELPED OUT YESTERDAY AND I WILL AGAIN ON FRIDAY, AND I GOT ME A WRISTBAND OUT OF IT. YAYUHHHHH. BUT I SAW LOTS OF FRIENDS WHICH WARMED MY NORMALLY STONE-C0LD HEART. SPELL CHECK IS TELLING ME I SPELLED THE "LD" PART OF "COLD" WRONG. HOW ODD.
YOU KNOW WHO ELSE HAS A STONE-COLD (DIDN'T DO IT THAT TIME... INCONSISTENT) HEART? ZOMBIES. ZOMBIES SCARE ME. I KNOW THEY'RE NOT REAL, BUT THEIR SOUL-LESS BLOODTHIRSTY DEMEANOR IN A HOPELESS POST-APOCALYPTIC WORLD FREAKS ME OUT. I DON'T LIKE TO THINK ABOUT IT. KNOW WHAT ELSE SCARES ME? I WILL MAKE A LIST:
- PARKING GARAGES
- FLYING
- PUBLIC SPEAKING
- LONELINESS. I WAS GOING TO SAY DYING ALONE, BUT I DON'T REALLY CARE IF I DIE ALONE BECAUSE RIGHT AFTER IT I WILL BE WITH JESUS. SO I'M MORE AFRAID OF LIVING ALONE. I CANNOT HANDLE MYSELF ALL BY MYSELF!!!!
- SPIDERS/ALL INSECTS
- YOU
I KNOW EXACTLY WHERE MY CHAPSTICK IS. LOL THAT REMINDS ME, AUSTIN MADE A FUNNY LAST NIGHT. RACHAEL WAS TALKING ABOUT HER KINDLE AND HER $25 GIFT CARD TO GO WITH IT, AND AUSTIN SAID HE GOT A GIFT CARD THAT WAS WORTH MORE MONEY OR SOMETHING, AND RACHAEL WAS LIKE "HEYYYYYYY STOP TRYING TO OUTDO ME!" AND AUSTIN GOES "OH I'M SORRY, I THOUGHT WE WERE BRAGGING." I LAUGHED. THEN I LAUGHED AGAIN.
WHAT DID I GET FOR CHRISTMAS YOU ASK? I DON'T REMEMBER. THIS WILL TAKE TIME TO THINK ABOUT. TIME FOR ANOTHER LIST:
- A SWEATER
- AN ITUNES GIFT CARD
- A PANERA GIFT CARD
- COLD HARD CASH
- SOME MOVIES (LOTR AND AUSTRALIA -- HUGH JACKMAN. ENOUGH SAID.)
- EARRINGS
- SOME WEIRD THING TO PUT ON MY BOOTS SO I DON'T SLIP AND DIE ON ICE.
- A COUPLE BAGS AND A WALLET
- A HAND-CARVED PEN!!!! BUCKEYE WOOD. I AM SUCH AN OHIOAN.
- A COAT AND A HAT
- BOOKS (SYSTEMATIC THEOLOGY, THE UNOFFICIAL HARRY POTTER COOKBOOK, AND THE HUNGER GAMES TRILOGY)
THAT IS ALL I CAN THINK OF. IT WAS A RATHER GIRLY CHRISTMAS, WASN'T IT? AHH WELL, TIS WHAT I AM.
I CAN'T WAIT TO HARMONICIZE (HARMONIZE WITH HARMONICAS) WITH YOU.

Becca,
I was going to take a nap during my lunch but since you were so upset and impatient yesterday, I decided to forego my much anticipated lunch time nap so I could blog to you.
How was your Christmas!?! What did you get!?
Surprisingly, not much has happened since I last blogged to you about a week ago. I've been very busy at work. Seriously, ALL last week I constantly had something to do. I'm not used to that kind of work. I still have an entire days worth of stuff to do today.
Tomorrow I'm giving a phone orientation to a foreign guy. I've very concerned about the language barrier because I also have to explain his medical benefits to him.
So far people are loving my Luna points. Especially people at the gym. Mama G got a laminating machine for Christmas and it's been very helpful with my Luna Points.
I can't find my chapstick.
The blister on the bottom of my foot hurts. Which will make my personal training session tonight interesting.
I bought two new work dresses yesterday form Target. They are fantastic. Just thought you'd like to know that I'm doin' it up in style here are UNICON.
I'm regretting not taking a nap now.
Megan and I won the gingerbread house competition last week. Our president is going to take us out for a relaxing lunch as our prize. I hope that includes a massage. Or the Plain White T's singing an acoustic set.
Here are my favorite Christmas gifts I got:
A GPS
workout clothes
A dish set with square plates
A HARMONICA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
An antelope
A blister on the bottom of my foot
Proof that Michael Jackson's still alive
A soul
Semi-Sincerely,
Rachel

What up.
So Chelsea just told me that there is going to be a computer on Jeopardy. As a contestant. A computer contestant playing against two people. How exactly is that fair? No no… how is that going to work? How can the computer buzz in? Is it a robot? Because if it doesn’t buzz in, then that’s not an equal competition for everyone. Buzzing is crucial, Rachel! But this thing is a computer! It can look up the answer to any question! Not. Cool.
Speaking of Jeopardy, MY GYM IS STUPID! Now at first you may not understand the connection between those two things. Allow me to elaborate. There are tons of TVs at the gym. I watch them as I work out so that I am not constantly focused on how much FREAKING LONGER I have to go. The TVs used to have various programs… one would have E News, one would have Real Housewives of Orange County (RH of NJ = guilty pleasure), one would have ESPN, one would have news, one would have Jeopardy, etc. But now? Now there is a rule from corporate saying they cannot change the channels per our requests. THE TVS ARE ALL ON CSPAN OR SOME ECONOMIC CHANNEL OR – wait for it – INFORMERCIALS!!!! I spent an hour watching an infomercial the other day!! I am sooooo offended that I kind of want to buy that product now. It cooks anything in 7 minutes!
Sarah just told me that if I am tired in the morning (from my late Veronica Mars nights) that she can drive my car when we go home. I told her NO WAY YOU GO 85 MILES PER HOUR AND LOLA NEEDS GENTLE CARE!!!
Did you see the lunar eclipse last night? I did not, as 1) my vision was eclipsed by snowy clouds, and 2) my vision was eclipsed by my eyelids.
I came in late today on account of the freezing rain. It was a slightly scary drive, but not too bad. I am rather annoyed that Indianapolis does not have a subway system. Or at least a light rail system. There are SO many commuters, and I would gladly partake of the system in order to save money. Plus, I think trains are fun. Do you happen to like trains, Rachel?
Time for Modcloth. Bye.

BECCA!
I'M GOING TO WRITE THIS IN ALL CAPITAL LETTERS BECAUSE IT'S THAT EXCITING! ON OF OUR VICE PRESIDENTS JUST BOUGHT THE OFFICE A LEGIT POPCORN MACHINE! LIKE THE ONES THAT AT THE MOVIE THEATER! SO NOW WE CAN HAVE POPCORN WHENEVER WE WANT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SINCERELY,
I'M SO SUPER DUPER EXICTED!

Rachel,
I read everything but the song. I want to actually be able to read it instead of glancing over it like I did everything else. You should probably thank me for how respectful I am of your music.
I think your new points system is much better than the old one. And it's just a very Rachel thing to do, so I say go for it. If people think it's weird, then their loss!
I really like the MercyMe version of "Silent Night."
Today is the biggest mailing day of the year. Over 800 million parcels will go out today, which is 40% higher than usual. You're welcome for that little nugget of knowledge.
I did not find my seminary. I found ANOTHER seminary. I fear I will never be able to choose, and I have just one month left to apply. I need to get on that STAT. Oh, another reason why Westminster is cool? There seem to be a lot of Asians there. Unless it's like Miami and heavily photographs the few Asians that there are in order to give the false impression of diversity.
Philadelphia's cool. It's got a lot of history, and I so love history. It's kind of expensive to live there, though. But less than two hours from NYC!!! Know what that means? Music scene.
In about 20 minutes I am taking Danli to the airport shuttle stop downtown. She knows better than to ask me to take her all the way to the airport. Though, I if she paid for gas, I would gladly do it as I LOVE hanging out at airports and would hang out there all the time if I didn't have to pay so much for parking. The Indy airport kind of rocks.
I joined a bible study today. It's on the Pursuit of Holiness.
I wish my coffee cup wasn't empty. I have left it sitting here on my desk so I can gaze longingly at it and re-live the sweet, sweet memories that we have.
Shepherds quake at the sight of you,
Becca

Becca,
My game is also elsewhere this morning. Perhaps your game and my game went on a vacation to Waikiki Beach for the holidays. We have mean games. Anyway, so I have about a bagillion orientations. And by bagillion I mean 4 in the next 2 days. But I've already had 2 of them, so just 2 more tomorrow, back to back, level 2 (meaning I have to explain medical benefits), so not exciting and potentially difficult. Let me get back to not being on my game. After my second orientation, I got back to my desk and realized I accidentally took ALL HIS PAPERS that I was supposed to give him to take home. But alas it was too late as he had already left in a hurry to get back to his current job. So I hurridly threw them into an overnight envelope and dropped them at the UPS store so he'll get them tomorrow. It will cost UNICON (or UNICORN for the most fantasy-minded people) some money, but I hopefully adverted a crisis. I felt really bad about it.
But today and tomorrow are going to be really busy. I have a ton of side projects to do PLUS I'm going to have to process 4 new hires! FOUR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I hate processing new hires. It's so mind numbing.
Alissa is down in Florida right now. I'm jealous. But she has to come back tomorrow. HAH!
I'm glad you found a seminary. And Philadelphia has one of the highest crime rates in the nation so you should fit in well. I like Pittsburgh more myself. But I've never been to Philadelphia so I probably can't really say with certainty which P-city I like more.
Did you know there's an Indiana in Pennsylvania!?!? I found this hilarious.
Is it weird for me to pass out Luna points to people at the gym? It would only be to people I know of course. I must miss passing them out! I'm gonna start bringing them to my small group too. I just don't know how appropriate they'd be outside of college. Plus, I'm afraid people will think I'm SUPER crazy now that I'm in the "real world." I was going to start emphasizing that people get them when I see or find out they did something nice. Like if I see a guy open a door for a lady, I shall bless him with a Luna point.
I think I'm going to update the Luna Points rewards. Here's what I was thinking:
10 Luna Points: A Luna Hug
20 Luna Points: Facebook wall post
30 Luna Points: Handwritten note of encouragement
40 Luna Points: Target dollar isle gift
50 Luna Points: Rachel will write a song for you
60 Luna Points: Coffee on Rachel
70 Luna Points: Hand-made gift from Rachel
80 Luna Points: $15 iTunes gift card
90 Luna Points: Dinner on Rachel
100 Luna Points: $25 gift card to Amazon.com
1,000 Luna Points: Rachel will do your taxes for you.
What are your thoughts on Luna Points? Shall I continue them or let them fade into history as a beautiful memory? Also, what do you think of my new rewards?
I love giving gifts too. I didn't get that many this year. I feel kinda bad about that now. I guess it's too late to go out and get more. A lot of my gifts are quality time. That sounds lame, but I honestly think the people I'm giving it to will like it. I mean, I'll be paying for their dinner so that's SOMETHING.
Becca, it's so funny that you listed your favorite things because I JUST bought you a new Christmas present. I will tell you what it is now.
It's a red (though it changes colors every 13 days) turtle from London with a portrait of the Friends cast carved into it's shell that poops chili and does a WICKED Matt Damon impression with a british accent like Pride and Prejudice. His name is Isaiah of Spain.
I have not been enjoying work today, it's been stressful.
I have my first personal training session tonight at 6:30. It's one of my 2 free ones so it has to be with Matt. I'm slightly terrified that I'm going to die.
Because I'm so prideful and want praise and recognition for my talents, I will not post the lyrics to the song I wrote Saturday since you'll probably never be able to hear it.
Pedestal, by Rachel Fuhrman
Poor lost soul
searching for meaning in your meaningless life.
You're all alone
trying to find the sun in the night
So I can see why you'd latch on
to the first thing that smiles at you
You say I'm amazing
perfection at its best
You think that I'm beautiful
the exception from the rest.
You tell me I've turned an evil man good
But if you think I can live up to that you're a fool.
It's not that I couldn't help you if I could.
But I can't reach you from up on the pedestal.
Poor scared man
afraid you'll find out your life's not what it should be.
I understand
you wanna be better than the reflection you see.
So now I know why you're holding on
to the thing you receive kindness from
You say I'm amazing
perfection at its best
You think that I'm beautiful
the exception from the rest.
You tell me I've turned an evil man good
But if you think I can live up to that you're a fool.
It's not that I couldn't help you if I could.
But I can't reach you from up on the pedestal.
And I wish you'd see the higher I am off the ground
Means there's no where for me to fall but down
so baby bring me down
bring me down
I wanna be next to you
Bring me down
Bring me down
I wanna be next to you
You say I'm amazing
perfection at its best
You think that I'm beautiful
the exception from the rest.
You tell me I've turned an evil man good
But if you think I can live up to that you're a fool.
It's not that I couldn't help you if I could.
But I can't reach you from up on the pedestal.
SHAZAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

afraid you'll find out your life's not what it should be.
I understand
you wanna be better than the reflection you see.
So now I know why you're holding on
to the thing you receive kindness from
You say I'm amazing
perfection at its best
You think that I'm beautiful
the exception from the rest.
You tell me I've turned an evil man good
But if you think I can live up to that you're a fool.
It's not that I couldn't help you if I could.
But I can't reach you from up on the pedestal.
And I wish you'd see the higher I am off the ground
Means there's no where for me to fall but down
so baby bring me down
bring me down
I wanna be next to you
Bring me down
Bring me down
I wanna be next to you
You say I'm amazing
perfection at its best
You think that I'm beautiful
the exception from the rest.
You tell me I've turned an evil man good
But if you think I can live up to that you're a fool.
It's not that I couldn't help you if I could.
But I can't reach you from up on the pedestal.
SHAZAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Rachel, I am NOT on my game this morning! I have forgotten, dropped, and spilled innumerable things since I woke up this morning. Someone slept over last night (my lover) (that was a funny lie because I’m funny) and I was trying really hard not to wake her, so I think I used up all of my powers of care and control before I left the apartment. Because then I was a couple of miles away before I realized I forgot my purse and had to go back to get it, and then I was even further away when I realized I didn’t put my phone in my purse, so I am phoneless. And after that all heck broke loose. My stained clothes and slightly wrinkled papers are a testament to this. Speaking of clothes, I like to say it like the “th” is actually in there. I am going to tweet that. Right now. Ok anyway, to be fair, I did have some good things happen this morning. I was able to bestow an act of kindness upon someone, I got a free coffee because of the Starbucks card my boss gave me, and I prayed over my broken computer and God fixed it. So all in all, I’m not really upset about anything.
I found a seminary I really, really like. Well, at least it is the first one that has truly impressed me. It’s in Philadelphia. I like Philadelphia. More importantly, I like cheesesteaks. But I have no clue where I am going next year, so this is really just idle chit chat.
I will have to make you a new computer background for your birthday. Be thinking of what you want on it.
I am going home on Wednesday. I am excited. I LOVE watching people open presents. I also love to receive presents, but not nearly as much as I love to give them. I am the poorest I have ever been, and yet I think I bought more presents this year than ever before. It’s an interesting paradox.
Met a little girl at the pharmacy. She was like one. We talked a bit (I talked, she made noises) and after a brief period of her trying to get me to suck on her pacifier, we became friends. And then when she left she gave me a big hug and a kiss on the cheek. I danced out of that pharmacy.
My gmail has a new theme. Ninjas. It's teal and red with little ninjas jumping around (and one having tea with a lady friend), and you mark important emails not with stars, but with little throwing stars. It pleases me greatly.
I am going to make you a list of my favorites so that you can buy me MORE THINGS:
Color – Red, though it often evolves
Movie – Breakfast at Tiffany’s
Book – Pride and Prejudice
TV show – Friends
Animal – Turtle
Country – Spain
City – NYCCCCCCCCC and London
Place – Disney World DUH
Food – Chili
Holiday – Christmas
Actor – I forget. I need to text Austin because I just had this conversation with him BUT I DON’T HAVE MY PHONE!!! It was a tie between Jason Bateman and…. and….Matt Damon!! And Colin Firth.
Actress – Meryl Streep, no contest
Book of Bible – Isaiah, Hebrews, Micah
Person – Not you
Hopefully that’s enough to at least get you started.
I am going to not work now. Enjoy your day. Or not, your call.
Becca
P.S. Almost all my paragraphs start with I. I am so self-centered.
Post post script, I am going to change the time stamp on this blog. It has bugged me long enough!

I will NOT pay!
Why you ask? Because I WON'T! I'm too sneaky for you to catch me.
I am getting to the point in my life now where I am especially perseptive to the adorableness of children and babies. Wanna know something funny about me though? I feel awkward around babies and children. I never know what to say. Put me with you and I'm a crazy ridiculous person on the verge of mental insanity (while maintain an air of sophisticated humor). Put me in front of a baby and I clam up.
Dollar menus are great on the wallet. Would it help you this season if I sent you $100? I would never do that, but I was just wondering if it would help.
At first when you typed Sinatra I thought you typed Santa. They look remarkably similar. I also like Sinatra. He has a very pleasing voice if you know what I mean. It's not rough around the edges like some rock singers. It just puts you in a happy mood.
I have attached a wonderful picture of R-Carr and the only good one I could find of Mama G on Facebook.
WORK YOUR MAGIC!
Okay, time to take my nap.
Nighty Night

You are going to pay.
Why, you ask? Because I got that same Friends painting for my sister a couple of Christmases ago. I regretted it instantly, but still. I am insulted.
Send me a picture of R-Carr and Mama G, as without facebook, I cannot get my hands on them here at work. I mean it. Do it. Do it, Rachel, do it!!! Your response = FINE I WILL!!
There are babies everywhere. Every single day there seems to be at least one Hispanic family that brings in their adorable Hispanic babies. Plus, our Hispanic receptionist brought her daughter today. We played peekaboo. It was great.
I didn't bring lunch today, so I am now going to Google restaurants around here to find which one seems most appetizing. Preferably with a dollar menu, as Christmas has left my wallet high and extra, extra dry.
I love Sinatra and all Sinatra-like music, ESPECIALLY at Christmas time. I hate to say it, but singing children kind of creep me out. Does that make me heartless?
I've also said that I would never go on a cruise as the ocean kind of terrifies me, especially after seeing Titanic in the 4th grade, but now that I have Jesus and see how awesome cruise ships are, I think I would go.
Earn that money,
Becca

To My Overly Imaginative Friend,
I often forget how to spell my own name. Much like how I often forget how to spell every other word in the English language, and most of the Portugese language.
I find that typing in caps really helps visually display the angry or excited emotions I am feeling at the time.
SEE!
You want to go everywhere. I feel like you need to pull an Around The World In 80 Days. Or at least go on an around the world cruise. They're only about 120 days. Speaking of cruises, did I mention that next year if UNICON exceeds $30 million in revenue, our president is going to pay for all the staff to go on a cruise!?!? You'd better pray you're still my friend then because if you thought the Casino was fun, imagine what being stuck in the middle of the ocean with me on a boat will be like!?!
I've already completed my tasks for the day so I'm thinking the afternoon will be slow unless I get more work to do. Perhaps I will do some filing for Megan, to be nice.
I see sparks fly whenever you smile.
I see forest fires start whenever you laugh.
WHY WON'T MY LIPS STAY MOISTURIZED!!!
I would like to meet Danli. Bring her to me.
Can you create a desktop for me? I want a picture of an adorable bunny surfing in a volcano wearing a trucker hat with birds flying in the sky with the heads of the following people:
1) You
2) Jake Gyllenhaul
3) Dakota Fanning
4) Sarah Palin
5) R-Carr
6) The beautiful Max and Erma's waitor from my past
7) Mama G
8) Barney
White elephant exchanges are fun apparently. I had never participated in one, but did for the first time last night with my small group and it was a blast. I would tell you what I took as my gift but you'd probably hate me for giving it away. I'll tell you anyway, you're not close enough to punch me anyway. For my 20th birthday I got a hand drawn and colored picture of the cast of Friends. It's a beautiful picture, and I like Friends a lot, but I don't need the creepily looking at me in my room. Anyway, the gift was actually a big hit. Two girls fought over it. Not literally, but yeh.
You can try to give away your rubber duckies but they will find their way back to you. YOU CAN NEVER ESCAPE THE DUCKS BECCA! THEY'RE ALWYAS WATCHING YOU!
Quack,
Rakhel

You signed your name wrong in that last post, Rakhel.
I do use short sentences a lot. It mirrors the way I speak. I find that short statements have more of a bang, you know? They stand out.
Like this.
Anyway, I'm glad you enjoyed your meeting. I haven't had Chinese food in a while. Well, I had... what's that good Chinese place? With the lettuce wraps? PF Chang's. I had that over Thanksgiving, but TECHNICALLY I had Singapore noodles, which hail from the small nation of -- you guessed it -- Singapore!! I would really like to go to Singapore. I have heard many a wondrous things about their street food. Apparently, Asian street food rocks. I NEED TO GO TO ASIA!
Danli made a picture of her dog (Widgeon, named after Pigwidgeon), her computer background and was adding snow to make it wintery, but then I told her I would do it for her. So now, her computer background is Widgeon with snow and a Rudolph nose, sitting on a blanket of snow with candy cane towers and stockings and a Calvin and Hobbs snowman comic, surrounded by snowballs, snowflakes, and floating heads/images of her favorite people and things, which include the following: John Marsden (author), Shirley Jackson (author), My Melody (a bunny friend of Hello Kitty), Totoro (that weird Japanese thing), Iorek (some weird armored bear), Severus Snape, a bear-shark hybrid, a polar bear and husky being friends, a baby dolphin, and Finn Hudson. Perhaps I will attach it at the end of this post.
We have our staff Christmas party today. It's from 2-5. I don't want to go for that long! Three hours? Maybe I will go late. I don't know. I would miss the white elephant gift exchange GOD FORBID!!! I'm not upset about missing that. I forgot about it until about midnight last night, and then rifled through all my boxes of random crap... of which I have a few. As I could not bring myself to part with any of my rubber duckies, I ended up grabbing a box of Family Guy Uno that someone gave me in high school and I never used (and never particularly wanted to use). I just wrapped it in newspaper and threw it in my purse. I hope no one is too offended by it. BUT if I miss the exchange?!? No harm, no foul.
Guess what! My boss gave me a bunch of chocolate and a $25 gift card to Starbucks!!!! I am thrilled! I haven't been able to buy myself any Starbucks for a while... yes! I also love how your boss just pours money on you.
These are the "fortunes" I have gotten recently that I still have:
- One who admires you greatly is hidden before your eyes.
- Stay true to yourself.
- Sever the ignorant doubt in your heart with the sword of self-knowledge.

Becca,
Did you know my name is spelled with a K also? Rakhel. It's the original German. I had people stop pronouncing it that way when they started spitting all over me whenever they said my name.
Sorry I haven't posted in like 6 hours. I had the meeting and then was busy right after it. By the way, BEST STAFF MEETING EVER! Here are the results from the meeting:
1) Free chinese lunch which was enough to leave me leftovers for tomorrow's lunch
2) Made Megan cry with my kind words for her
3) Got $5 from Jane for making Megan cry by saying kind things about her.
4) Won a $25 gift card in a drawing.
I'd say it was a successful 2 hours.
I think Easton and Polaris helped Columbus move up in the shopping society. Thanks Les Wexner! You're the best! Do you have a grandson my age?
I can't WAIT to get off work.
I spent the afternoon research customizable fortune cookies. If I could customize my own fortune cookies, here's what the fortunes would say:
1) I'm glad I'm not gonna be you tomorrow
2) DUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
3) The next person you meet of the opposite sex will be your spouse.
4) I really have no idea what your future holds. You should stop putting your hope in a tiny piece of paper inside a cardboard cookie.
5) China is going to rule the world
6) Miley Cyrus will be the next Lindsay Lohan.
7) Columbus will soon be the number 1 shopping destination in the country.
8) I see pandas in your future
Megan's fortune cookie at lunch said "Your little problems will soon become bigger problems." THAT'S THE SADDEST FORTUNE EVER!!!!!!!!!! Especially with all the trouble and drama she's been going through. When she got out of the meeting she found out her sister had been in a car accident. She wasn't injured though thank goodness. Well, later she got another fortune cookie to redeem herself and make herself feel better. IT SAID THE SAME THING!!!!!!!!!! NO JOKE!!!!!!!!!!!!! I felt bad for her. Poor girl. But she laughed about it. Which is good.
Did you ever realize that you blog in short sentences a lot.
Did you ever realize that I use capital letters A LOT when I blog?
That is all. I hope you had a nice day at home. I am jealous.
PEACE OUT SUCKAS!
Rachel

Hahaaaaaaa Chinese makes you a looooserrrrrrrrr!
That is in no way a racial slur.
I hate goodbyes! They are so hard!!! I feel like I'm leaving Oxford all over again by watching this show! I just finished it and almost cried. Every. Time. But they really did a great job. The music in the last moments is especially perfect. I make myself feel better by reminding myself that they all still live in the same city (why did I type sitting?! I have a problem). (Obviously I ignore that God-forsaken spin-off that took Joey to LA.) (More parentheses.) They are all doing their thing, still friends, Chandler and Monica just moved a little further away. And they have to come into the city every day for work anyway so OF COURSE they all still hang out at Central Perk. Ok. I feel better.
I think a musical of your life would be kind of boring. You need a twist, a kicker, something to really grab the audience. Like, you are an alien, or your workplace is secretly a branch of the CIA, or you have been recruited into the Russian mafia. But you can try and see how it goes. Here, I will help you out:
Now this is a story all about how
My life got twist turned upside down
And I'd like to take a minute, you better listen or die
And tell you how I became an assassin who makes people go bye bye
I'll work on it.
Monica, have a happy Hanukkah
Saw Santa Clause, he said hello to Ross
And please tell Joey Christmas will be snowwwyyyyyyyy
And Rachel and Chandler! folaiwejgoaiejaandlerrr!!!!!
Happy holidays, everybody!

Fastest,
First of all, yes, I am sending out an informational sheet about peaches. People just don't know enough about them. In my opinion they are the most underrated, underappreciated fruit known to man. Second, it is NOT the fruitiest fruit. I still think that's a pineapple or a mango. Peaches just aren't juicy or sweet enough in my opinion.
I think I will try to make my life a musical. Thought?
My theory in inpenetrable. I think I spelled that wrong, but you know what I mean. Maybe staff does but interns don't. Passes to the rec are EXPENSIVE! To a point of ridiculousness. Rachael would never be able to make it as a goon. She's not tough enough, both in looks and demeanor. That might be spelled wrong too. I'd fix it but then this wouldn't be the FASTER RESPONSE POST EVER!
I'm moving to Paris? I can't believe it either. Perhaps I shall see the Louve and experience all the things you missed out on. I'll call you when I venture over the border into Germany though and you can come too.
We will hav a show. I'm just waiting for some TV network to discover our blog and realize what a diservice they are doing to the world by NOT creating a TV show with us in it.
Faster bye,
Rachel

Faster.
I am not sure what you mean by peach pages. Is it a page of information about peaches? Such as, the peach is native to China? Or, California, and not Georgia, grows 65% of America's peaches? Or perhaps that they are susceptible to both leaf curl and brown rot? That's good of you, people really need to learn more about the peach. It is a highly underrated fruit. Perhaps the fruitiest fruit? Hard to say, Rachel, hard to say.
I really enjoy in the finale how Phoebe tries to make things into a musical. "Wheeeen theeee sun comes out BRIGHT AND BEAMING!" But perhaps what I'm most excited about is that when I finish season 10, I can start over with season 1! Score!
Your physical fitness theory is intriguing. I can't deny it, as the evidence points toward your theory alone. Don't Cru staff get passes to the Rec? No? I don't know why I always think that. But that's good for her. Maybe she can beef up to be considered for goondom. But the chances are slim. As she is slim.
I can't believe Rachel is moving to Paris. I feel flabbergasted every time I watch this episode.
I think I should have been on this show. You and me. WHY DON'T WE HAVE A SHOW?!

I am not sure what you mean by peach pages. Is it a page of information about peaches? Such as, the peach is native to China? Or, California, and not Georgia, grows 65% of America's peaches? Or perhaps that they are susceptible to both leaf curl and brown rot? That's good of you, people really need to learn more about the peach. It is a highly underrated fruit. Perhaps the fruitiest fruit? Hard to say, Rachel, hard to say.
I really enjoy in the finale how Phoebe tries to make things into a musical. "Wheeeen theeee sun comes out BRIGHT AND BEAMING!" But perhaps what I'm most excited about is that when I finish season 10, I can start over with season 1! Score!
Your physical fitness theory is intriguing. I can't deny it, as the evidence points toward your theory alone. Don't Cru staff get passes to the Rec? No? I don't know why I always think that. But that's good for her. Maybe she can beef up to be considered for goondom. But the chances are slim. As she is slim.
I can't believe Rachel is moving to Paris. I feel flabbergasted every time I watch this episode.
I think I should have been on this show. You and me. WHY DON'T WE HAVE A SHOW?!

Becca,
Watch as I reply post even FASTER!
I didn't know your face come without glasses. I would like to see that look sometime.
I'd imagine Kevin got in trouble with the mob or some drug dealers and needs some muscle to protect him from their fiendish plots.
I was going to try SO HARD not to have a snack before lunch, but my stomach is growling so loud I think I'll have to.
Friends really did do an excellent job with character development. Especially in the last few seasons. That was one of those shows that didn't start sucking at the end of its run.
I just accidentally printed 60 peach sheets when I only meant to print 30. Oops.
DARN IT HAIR! WHY ARE YO USO IRRESISTIBLE TO TOUCH!
I could really go for an enchilada right now. Too bad we're having Chinese for lunch.
You know what else I could go for? A jet pack.
I'm proud of you for going 4-5 times a week. I only go 4 but I'd really like to start going Fridays after work to bring me up to 5. Look at us getting healthy. :) Carr is going to join a gym for three months too. See, all we needed was to stop living together and move 2.5 hours away from each other to get into shape. Little did we know we were holding each other back from our true physical potential.
Okay I can't remember the other thing I was going to say. And I don't remember what else you said. So I'm going to go finish printing my 60 page error.
See you later alligator,
Rachel

I am going to reply just as quickly, Rachel. TAKE THAT!
I am deceptively strong!! Don't let the lack of visible muscles fool you! Where there is not bone, fat, or organs, THERE IS MUSCLE! Plus, I am trying to go to the gym 4-5 times a week. Hopefully 5, but things always get in the way. I don't like it at all, but I must do it. I don't have any other sort of exercise, besides walking to and from my car. I miss having being in a town where I can walk everywhere. I miss having a campus. A beautiful, beautiful campus.
I would be happy to be Kevin's goon. I like him. I am willing to threaten, intimidate, and if necessary, beat to achieve his purposes. Plus, I miss Riley. A little Gravedigga-Slugga reunion would be welcomed with open arms. What is Kevin's problem? Who has wronged him so?
This is the Friends finale. Chandler is also my favorite, but I so appreciate the nuances of all the characters. Ross' nerdiness, Monica's intensity, Chandler's humor, Phoebe's insanity (slash kinkiness), Joey's stupidity, and Rachel's... well I don't know what Rachel's thing is. Good timing? But I think she gets really funny in the last few seasons. That's what this show owns -- character development. Plus great couples.. Ross and Rachel, Chandler and Monica, Phoebe and Mike. It just does not get better.
Chandler: I haven't cried like that in years.
Monica: You cried yesterday at the 6 o'clock news.
Chandler: That old woman was being SCAMMED by her MECHANIC!
Want to know what I think is kind of weird? That people here do not know me in contacts. They have never seen me wear them because I started wearing glasses over the summer. But in reality, I have been a contact wearer since 8th grade. They would probs think it's weird that I wear contacts. And now people from school think the same! Like, a couple months ago Riley and I discovered that (among our many other twin features) we bought our prom dresses at the same store. And Riley was like, what if we had been there at the same time?! And Eric was like, do you remember a feisty dark girl with glasses? Something like that. GLASSES! They are part of me now.
I'm a little bitter that I am surrounded by bridal boutiques. I do not need that reminder every single day! And the dresses are soooo pretttyyyyy. Bitter.
I don't stroke my hair because I don't want it to grease up. Oh, the other day, Chelsea at work turns to me and goes, "Becca. Guess how long it's been since I washed my hair." And based on my own personal hair-washing experience, I thought maybe three, four days tops. I say so, and she goes, "Nope. THREE WEEKS." I wash shocked and amazed. And a little jealous.
Groovy,
Becca

Beccasaur,
Watch yourself as I rapid fire responses to everything you post in your most recent blog:
-working from home=good, dying=bad
-Riley lives 2.5 hours away, she's not a reliable source for indy road conditions
-You were thinking of quitting coffee cold turkey, that's why you typed turkey
-Friends is hilarious. Chandler is my favorite
-Hitler hated jews because he was kicked out of a jewish art school he wanted to go to. Also, they wouldn't let him light the menorah.
-There's nothing better in the world than Psych
-I'm mostly German so I'm for you going to Germany.
-DONE!
As I said, last night was awkward for me. I will not repeat the story, much to the dismay of our readers. But he said all that in front of other people, and I'm not smart and wittical like you so I didn't know what to say so I just laughed uncomfortably. On the plus side, that's the closest I've ever come to being asked out by a guy lol.
Today we have our end of the year staff meeting. You know what that means!?!?! FREE LUNCH AND AN HOUR OF OVERTIME!!!!!!!!! Today for lunch we will be having chinese food, which I ordered yesterday over the phone. I was quite proud of myself. Slash incredibly nervous because I'm me.
Alissa is coming with me to the gym tomorrow which excites me because now she can see the tree I helped decorate!
I play with my hair too much. I always tell myself I'll stop, but alas the urge to lovingly stroke my velvet soft, satin shiny hair is to much for me to resist.
I think I'm starting to get a little muscle in my arms. This excites me because I want to look more toned in my arms so that people will find me more intimidating. I'm also going to start requiring you to go to the gym at LEAST 3 times a week and work on becoming more muscular. I need my goons to look super intimidating by having visible muscles.
K Joe Timm asked if he could borrow my goons because he told someone he had goons then realized he didn't. I don't think he's man enough to be worthy of borrowing my goons.
I WILL NOT PLAY WITH MY HAIR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm out.

Hello RACHEL.
So I didn't go to work today. After I almost died going to work on Monday and then received that email saying that I could've worked from home if I'd wanted, I decided that I would do so if it ever snowed heavily again. And since I woke up and spied some very questionable roads, I decided to stay. Riley also aided in the decision, telling me that she went to work and it was horrible. So here I am. I brought some work home yesterday just in case.
I have a cup of coffee for the first time in over a week. IT FEELS LIKE IT HAS BEEN FOREVERRRRRRRRRRR!! I decided that since I was having health issues and was trying a couple different medications to figure out what's wrong, I would go off the coffee (I typed turkey at first for some reason?) because I didn't want it to cloud my observations. But since the observation that I am peeing all the time anyway is pretty solid, I decided to let myself have a cup o joe! I'm excited. But not as excited as I should be because this bag of coffee is kind of burnt. Sad.
I am watching Friends while I eat breakfast. Right now Chandler is telling Janice that he's still in love with her so that it will scare her out of buying the house next door to his and Monica's. He told Monica that the only way Janice would not get that house was if the other couple making an offer was the Hitlers. I learned some interesting things about Hitler yesterday. He had the following issues: irritable bowel syndrome, skin lesions, irregular heartbeat, Parkinson's disease, syphilis, and Asperger syndrome. Plus, injections and medications that he had been given to treat these things over a long period of time had meth and other toxic drugs in them. So all those things were mingling around in his body. No wonder he was INSANE!!! Oh, and the main reason he hated Jews? He got a Jewish prostitute and she's the one who gave him syphilis. He called it the Jewish disease. Interesting? Maybe not for you, but for me it was. OH and all three of his lady friends? All tried more than once to commit suicide. Two succeeded. Demonic?!?!?!?! I think so.
You texted me. Hold on.
I am excited to watch Psych during my "lunch break." Our mom... lol not our mom, the mother of my sister and myself, she lent us their Wii, and we got Netflix on it, so I have been watching Psych NONSTOP. It's been wonderful. I'm watching Season 2 right now. I don't remember a lot of these. I think maybe they were on freshmen or sophomore year, and I had stopped watching it when I went to college. So I missed all of them and haven't seen a lot of them in re-runs. It's like a whole new world.
Today I want to go to Germany. I really liked Germany. I used to have this kind of unfounded hatred of Germany because of the Nazis and WWII, and I think I just pictured it as being ugly, but then in high school we had a German exchange student (Lars) and he donated a book about Germany to the library, and I learned that very day that Germany is in fact beautiful and has an incredible culture. And I want to go back to Paris. That's probably what I regret the most... losing so much time in Paris because I LOST THE TRAIN TICKETS TO LONDON. That was really chaotic. I didn't even get to see the Louvre :(
You texted me again. Hold on again.
I really don't have to say hold on if I'm blogging. This blog is getting long anyway. Done.

Lecca Bang,
I ate entirely too much ham today. And I approve of your choice to budget and buy healthier foods. Healthy food is good for your soul. And your eyes. Especially carrots. It's more expensive, but I think it's worth it in the long run. Plus you feel better about yourself. While I do eat healthy, I eat A LOT of healthy food. A LOT. So I'm NEVER starving. I actually enjoy going to the gym now. I think it's because I'm starting to see slight results so it pushes me to keep going. Just keep thinking about Halle Berry's body as inspiration.
My nap was GLORIOUS! Although my hip hurt after it. Apparently while I was slumbering a fuse blew in the building. SEE WHAT HAPPENS WHEN I CLOSE MY EYES!
I get SO MUCH SPAM at work, and it just amazes me how every single one has horrible grammar. You'd think they would be smart enough to know that I'd be more likely to look at the email if it was grammatically correct. Silly spammers.
Wait...I thought you were Asian?
Megan received a package today that was a present for her boyfriend. It was a small stuffed flying monkey that makes noise when it flies. It works like a sling shot. Needless to say, we played with it immediately. The monkey sound effects sound more like a cat being skinned. But other than that it was barrels of fun. 3 1/4 barrels of fun to be exact.
I also need a white elephant gift for Thursday. I was going to wrap up a small box and have that be my gift, but then I found out you actually open the gift and then trade, so that blows that plan right out of the water. Maybe I'll get them a water bottle. I'm going to make a list of possible white elephant gifts for us to take to our respective parties:
1) a shrunken head
2) an actual white elephant
3) a mini dictionary
4) the shoe of an elf
5) a pencil
6) a candle
7) The Prince And Me 4: The Elephant Adventure on DVD
8) fingernail polish
9) fingernails
10)Luna Points. MAYBE THAT'S WHAT I'LL TAKE TO MINE!?!?!?!?!!?!?
Sincerely,
Fachel Ruhrman (it's not as cool when you do it with my name, although I do kinda like Fachel)

Yes, thank you, Rachel, but I already knew. I received a text from Danli at 2:35 in the morn to alert me to that very fact. Zanessa is no more. Frankly, though I shouldn't be, I am glad. I never liked her. Though I did admire her wardrobe, hair, and boyfriend, her rather loose morals turned me off.
I've eaten entirely too much pizza lately. and am slightly disgusted with myself. I am going to go home and budget and see where I can cut back so that I can spend more money on healthy foods. And more time cooking and going to the gym instead of being lazy. But I just don't liiiike the gyymmmmmm and I sooo liiiiiike mooooovieees (and Psych). Life, thou art a fiend.
Did you enjoy your nap? I'm sure you did. I wish I could nap as I am ridiculously tired. But there's nowhere good to nap here, so I just watched last night's episode of Hawaii Five-0 during my break instead. It was a thriller. The attractive cast is a bonus. I <3 Daniel Dae Kim.
I made a list of things that Danli likes to prove to her that she is stereotypically Asian. I ended up proving that I was stereotypically Asian.
My bed is really comfortable. I want to be there right now.
I spent a long time today reading about a small town in Switzerland. I googled the abbey there, the regional cuisine, the skiing, the hotels. I am very thorough when I want to be. And what I want IS EUROPE.
My boss just floats around. Like, if it weren't a laid back office, I would never be able to slack off because every few times I turn around, he. is. there. Right now he is in the kitchen. But seriously 20 seconds ago he was in the reception area and left through the front door. How he got to the kitchen so quickly? I do not know. He's like a vulture. A non-avian, non-flesh-eating (that I know of) vulture. Maybe he can apparate.
Our staff Christmas party is this Friday. I need a white elephant gift. What should I do?
Hark,
Becca

B From Da Hood,
Here is a conclusive list of things I have done today:
1) woke up
2) went back to sleep
3) woke up again
4) printed timesheets
5) terminated an employee
6) took a nap at my desk
7) made copies while trying to stretch a pulled muscle in my chest. I looked awkward
8) watched Glee
9) read an article about jobs that pay well and don't require a masters. P.S. I'm going to be a financial analyst now. I'm assuming that just means I'll stare at money the whole day and analyze it then get to take it home with me.
10) played with my hair
11)lunch with g-ma and mama G.
12) drove back to work against my will
My lips have ALSO been chapped constantly. I can never give them the moisture they require thanks to this awful dry weather. It's a good thing snow is so pretty or else I'd hate winter a lot more.
I have to go to the bathroom but I'm going to try and hold out a little bit longer. That reminds me of Nick Jonas' song A Little Bit Longer which reminds me of the Jonas Brothers second album. Ahhhh JoBros. Remember when we were obsessed with them? We need a new boy band to crush on. Might I suggest Big Time Rush? They all are pretty cute and closer to our age.
I really am interested to how Adam Young, aka Owl City, reacted when he first listened to T. Swift's song Enchanted and learned it was about him. I apologize for talking about this album so much but it fascinates me! I want to know who every song was about and how they felt about it! I think I'm going to release a similar album. Here is a list of the people I will write songs about and the title of the song:
-You: "My Best Frenemy (I Will Get You)."
-Rachael: "Just Because Your Name Has An Extra Letter Doesn't Make You Better Than Me"
-Eric Danielson: "Yay, Another Simpson's Reference"

I'm having fun with the whole sneaking ornaments on the christmas tree at the gym. I think I'm gonna bake some cookies or put together a nice fruit basket for all the employees at the gym and have Mama G deliver it and on it will be a note that reads as follows:
"To all the wonderful employees at Aspen Fitness. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays. Sincerely, the same person who's putting the ornaments on the tree."
I love being sneaky.
I'm going to watch Parenthood now.
So long, Farewel, whatever they sing next,

Here is a conclusive list of things I have done today:
1) woke up
2) went back to sleep
3) woke up again
4) printed timesheets
5) terminated an employee
6) took a nap at my desk
7) made copies while trying to stretch a pulled muscle in my chest. I looked awkward
8) watched Glee
9) read an article about jobs that pay well and don't require a masters. P.S. I'm going to be a financial analyst now. I'm assuming that just means I'll stare at money the whole day and analyze it then get to take it home with me.
10) played with my hair
11)lunch with g-ma and mama G.
12) drove back to work against my will
My lips have ALSO been chapped constantly. I can never give them the moisture they require thanks to this awful dry weather. It's a good thing snow is so pretty or else I'd hate winter a lot more.
I have to go to the bathroom but I'm going to try and hold out a little bit longer. That reminds me of Nick Jonas' song A Little Bit Longer which reminds me of the Jonas Brothers second album. Ahhhh JoBros. Remember when we were obsessed with them? We need a new boy band to crush on. Might I suggest Big Time Rush? They all are pretty cute and closer to our age.
I really am interested to how Adam Young, aka Owl City, reacted when he first listened to T. Swift's song Enchanted and learned it was about him. I apologize for talking about this album so much but it fascinates me! I want to know who every song was about and how they felt about it! I think I'm going to release a similar album. Here is a list of the people I will write songs about and the title of the song:
-You: "My Best Frenemy (I Will Get You)."
-Rachael: "Just Because Your Name Has An Extra Letter Doesn't Make You Better Than Me"
-Eric Danielson: "Yay, Another Simpson's Reference"
-T. Swift: "Who Did You Write YOUR Songs About?"
-Austin Hilmer: "Remember When You Stole Luna Points From Me? (I DO!)"
-Hugh Jackman: "Hugh, This Is Becca (Your Soulmate)"
-Abed: "Let's Be Best Friends"
-Bruce Willis: "I Don't Care If You're Old (Let's Get Married)"
-The World: "DON'T GET ME SICK!!!"
-My water bottle: "Don't Ever Leave Me"
-My pillow: "I Can't Sleep Without You In Bed With Me"
-Aliens: "I Know You're Real."

Court Jester Rachel,
That was a nice story.
Here is what I have done so far at work today:
1. Compared socks with Rachel (yes, there is a Rachel here).
2. Chatted with Chelsea and discuss possible business enterprises.
3. Tried to eat yogurt. I did fairly well.
4. Gave up and drank hot cocoa instead.
5. Googled how much money you can get for selling a custom font.
6. Read some articles in the Times.
7. Discussed baby names with Tuesday, who is pregnant. She wants Mina or Luna (that's right!) but her boyfriend wants an original name, like Bolma.
8. Googled unique baby names.
9. Looked up some forms for work.
10. Ran around screaming and ripping out my hair because the internet went out.
11. Made some soup.
12. Sporcled.
13. Received a Hello Kitty sticker.
14. Had veins examined by Danli.
15. Blogged.
And here we are! Wasn't that fun? I bet it was.
My lips are extremely chapped and my hands are extremely dry. No matter how often I put on chapstick and lotion, they just crack right back up. I am offended by this weather. Saying "lotion" reminds me of my northern assimilation. I grew up calling it "cream" in Kentucky. When we moved up here, my sister went to a sleepover and asked for some cream, and they brought her heavy whipping cream from the fridge. That is when we learned that it is indeed not called cream here. Slowly, ever so slowly, I lost my accent and adopted the northern ways of life. I no longer milk my own cow or catch my own chickens, either.
I have decided to call my boss Sir Christopher instead of Chris. I feel like it will add a little flair to everyone's day. This same boss just emailed Danli a list of ghetto phrases that he knows. He is not ghetto at all. On the list were "hey!" and "yeah!" Those are not ghetto phrases. If he would just simply add "playa" after those words, THEN they would be ghetto phrases. As I said that out loud, I realized there was a black client standing behind me. Oops. I should keep my mouth shut. Anyway, this conversation stemmed from a CD Danli received from a client yesterday. She is writing his pardon petition, so in return he decided to give her some merch. He is an aspiring rapper named B the Messenger, and his CD is called The Warning, with tracks such as "GamePlayn" and "Getupoutdagame." But all humor aside, he's pretty cool. I looked him up online -- "8yrs in, God began to pull, tug, & prick the heart of the once thugged out block bleeder. Although saved & baptized at an early age, the lifestyle he lived just didn't line up. God never gave up on him though. He accepted his calling into the ministry in 2003 & began to preach the gospel. Still lyrically gifted he didn't know how he could be used by God. After hearing God say, 'just be the messenger I called you to be & let me do the rest', B THE MESSENGER WAS BORN & THE CALLING WAS CLEAR!
So he's back in the hoods, juvenile centers, prisons, clubs, youth centers or where ever God sends him." I. Am. A. Fan.
Also on the cover of the cd, there is a cloud in the shape of a tiger. Ahhh the power of the cat. Which reminds me of my favorite car commerical: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GYQ-jRHeCW0.
I still remember the phone number from when I first voted for Kelly Clarkson on American Idol. 1-866-436-5705.
Pray for my doctor's appointment today!
kthxbye
Becca

Queen Becca (thought I'd give you a taste of what royalty feels like)
If I was writing a book, here is what the current chapter would say:
It's 9:04 and she ran out of work to do 10 minutes ago. A fax just came in. She hoped it was something to do...A TIMESHEET!!!! Her heart races with excitement as now she will need to take it up to the receptionist to have her enter it into the system, an act which should take about 15 seconds in its entirety.
DONE!
Back to nothing to do.
I got offered a free personal training session last night at the gym just for bringing the trash out of the women's locker room. I feel like the action does not quite justify the reward.
Just when she thinks life will go back to the regular mundane of starring at her computer, the accounting woman comes in with work to do. Rachel anxiously accepts this stapling challenge and takes the invoices from her co-worker. She works diligently on the project while talking to friend Riley on facebook chat about what to put into her essay for the FBI. One day Riley will look back on this moment and realize that her wild success in the FBI was all thanks to Rachel and her help with the essay.
After her accounting work is completed, Rachel decides to check the results of her Luna points contest. Looks like only Carrie Zinck wins her 50 Luna Points. However, she enjoyed this contest and has decided to continue to do it every Monday, but she'll have to lower the prize to 25 Luna Points. After all, she can't have Luna Points losing their value. That thought then reminded Rachel about an article she read yesterday about how the US government made a big no no when they accidentally printed 1 billion $100 bills (that's $100 billion) wrong. Now they have to lock them up and destroy them. "Silly government," she thought. "I'd never make that mistake with my Luna Points," which she is positive will become and official currency within the next 10 years.
But the moment of reflection is over as she is pulled back into the cruel reality of having nothing to do. She greatly anticipates lunch, not for the lame-o lunch she packed with nothing delicious in it, but because she brought her laptop and video camera with her to work today to edit videos from the previous weekend. She is excited to re-live the high times that were had. She is glad she thought of this because it reminded her that she needed to plug in her video camera so it could charge. Thank you memory!
Suddenly, Rachel's boredom is interrupted by the sounds of running and ruckus. She jumps out of her chair to see what all the commotion is about. She races to the lobby and beholds the sight of a Norweigen Dance Troop doing their routine of Dancing Queen by ABBA. Rachel is very impressed and claps so vigorously that her hands fall off.
Handless, she strolls back to her desk to resume her boredom. Perhaps she shall watch How I Met Your Mother to kill the time. She'll probably just take a nap though.
Goodnight!
THE END!

Third post in a row, yes, but I realized I didn't explain King Edward and Wallis Simpson!! Yes, well, Edward VIII became king when his father, Charles V, died. As a prince, he had traveled around a lot and... shall we say spent a lot of time with eligible ladies and not-so-eligible women. One of those women was a woman named Wallis Simpson, a previously-divorced American woman who was then married to a British businessman or something. When he became king, he was spending a lot of time with Simpson and breaking protocol and angering everybody. Basically he was courting her even though she was married. Eventually Simpson divorced her husband and Edward decided to marry her, but the Church of England didn't allow him to marry a divorcee, and as king he was the head of the church and expected to follow its rules. The government didn't want it either because they knew that the English people would not accept someone like her as their queen. So Edward abdicated the throne, giving it to his brother, saying (and this is a famous quote so it's not THAT nerdy that I know it), "I have found it impossible to carry the heavy burden of responsibility and to discharge my duties as king as I would wish to do without the help and support of the woman I love."
That is the story of Edward and Wallis. The end.
That is the story of Edward and Wallis. The end.
Rachel,
I'm glad you brought up Edward and Wallis Simpson, as I have already read their Wiki pages as well, along with Prince Albert slash King George VI and his lady love, AS WELL AS all the info I can find on both of their movies coming out. I have the Elizabeth I page open on my compy at home so that I can read it straight away when I get back. You know how I do. I am efficient when I want to be.
I got the fries. They're okay. They kind of taste almost the same as the old Wendy's fries. BUT the chili I got was stupeeeeeeeendous. Frosty's not bad either.
I watched a lot of shows as a child, as I was raised on television (and fast food, for that matter). Here were the bigguns:
- Rugrats
- Doug
- Hey Arnold
- All That
- Clarissa Explains it All
- The Famous Jett Jackson
- Go go POWER RANGERS!
- Lizzie McGuire
- EVEN STEVENS!!
And as a wee tot, anything on Nick Jr LITTLE BEAR AND FRANKLIN!!!!!! And all the Disney Channel original movies... Brink and Johnny Tsunami are tops.
I am going to check my temp tonight and if it's high, then I'll call tomorrow. If that makes you feel better. I don't want my kidneys to be lime green.
Why aren't I famous?
Welp, that's it since I wrote to you two hours ago.
Bye bye bye.

I also really want to try the Wendy's fries, but I remembered my lunch. Maybe I'll forget one day and go. I think that will be a nice treat for me since I normally don't get fried foods.
I usually avoid going to the doctor unless I absolutely need to, so I understand where you're coming from, especially with the money thing. That being said, with your kidney history be aware of how you feel because you don't want it to get too far and turn yellow. Wait, that's when your liver fails. What color do you turn if your kidneys fails? I'm going to guess neon green.
Here is a list of the old cartoons I used to watch as a wee lass growing up:
-Hey Arnold sometimes
-Recess
-Pepper Ann
-Batman (that's right, I was awesome)
-Power Rangers (who didn't?)
There were more I just don't remember.
If you're big on the British monarchy history look up the love story of Willis Simpson and King Edward. It's a very popular story and Madonna is even producing a movie about it. Fill me in on the details as I am not that familiar with the story myself.
Someday my prince will come...
Unless he doesn't.
I haven't posted since I last posted.
I don't know why I think those are so funny.
I'm not in a particularly funny mood right now. Maybe it's because I'm hungry. Except that I'm not particularly hungry either. I have left over barbeque chicken pizza for lunch. YUM!
Okay, I'm going to try and find the new episode of sonny with a chance now.
Goodbye,
RRF (as in the sound a dog makes when it wants to go out)

Rachel,
I will risk being reprimanded (AS IF lol... that's the first time I've said "as if" since I was 13, I think) in order to write you a reply RIGHT NOW. I've actually only been working for about five minutes, as I spent the rest of my morning finding people to follow on Twitter and reading all the posts of LeadFakePastor. Besides the two I tweeted, here are my favorites from him:
- Theological error of less than 140 characters should get a pass. It says that CLEARLY in Romans 9:3. I also get frustrated when people point out flaws & theological errors in my messages and books, too. #HurtsSales
- Thankful for: family, God, Buckle, Coldplay, my abs, my wife's abs, and Perry Noble's easily accessible messages online. #blessed
- HELP needed, twitterverse: Does anyone have a monkey that smokes cigars? Need one DESPERATELY for a visual on Sunday. #creative
- I wish there was a sequel to Genesis. I've always wondered what happened to Joseph and his family after they moved to Egypt. #mystery
- The worst critics are the ones that have the bible on their side because you can't reason with them. #annoying
- Pastor, remember u r an example & people are watching you ALL the time. Kills me when I see pastors look like slobs at the gym. #underarmor
- One reason I'm glad I'm not Jewish is I hate working on Saturday & Sunday is Monday for pastors. Also, I love bacon. #Christian
- Are u an example? I tell our middle school girls how my wife kept her purity even though she was really hot & God rewarded her with me #pure
- Disappointing when a ministry friend turns out to be fake. Had to fire our creative arts guy when I found out his tats r fake :(
TOO MANY TO COUNT!! I am laughing really hard at work, and it is causing me some abdominal pain to try to be quiet and hold it in.
I am going to try the new Wendy fries today. I was too lazy to pack a lunch, so I thought since it's SO COLD and i love chili SO MUCH that I would go to Wendy's and get some. The fries are just a bonus. And maybe a frosty... but i'm already pretty frosty in this office.
I had a most wonderful time at your house this weekend. Honestly. I am 100% positive that is where God wanted me to be. It's a bonus that it made you and Mama G happy to have me there :) I am honored.
I am avoiding calling the doctor. I really don't want to. I've already paid a lot of money for medical stuff. I wonder how long my body can hold out... I wouldn't be surprised if I fade out pretty quickly. I am more feeble than I look.
I drew an extremely realistic portrait of Quail Man. Speaking of classic cartoons, we got Netflix on our Wii (that Mama Lang was kind enough to loan us) and I got Hey Arnold and Rugrats to watch. Memory Lane, I will be traversing you soon.
I keep trying to use my cell phone as my mouse. I should probably move it, but... nah.
It's full steam ahead (train reference just for you) with my obsession with the British monarchy. I watched The Young Victoria last night and looooooooooooooooved it!! Then I read the full Wiki pages on both her and her husband, Albert, whom I would marry if he weren't dead and married to Vicky. I looked up the actor who played him with hopes that I could marry him instead (SO ADORABLE) but then discovered that he is dating Keira Knightley #disappointment
Oh! And I also remembered that one of my ancestors worked for Queen Victoria YESSSSSSS I HAVE A CONNECTION!!!! 17 degrees from Queen V. 18 from Albert.
That's all,
RML

Becca my one and only honey pie,
I wonder what a honey pie would take like? And entire pie filled with rich honey. I'm going to guess disgusting.
I turned the vibrate off on my phone in my touch settings so you can't hear when I'm texting at work. But I mess up more because I'm not sure if I'm actually hitting the screen. I'll get used to it.
I forgot that I was going to start by thanking you for coming this weekend! I had a really good time, but more importantly I think Mama G had a good time. I know it meant SO MUCH to her to have you there to celebrate. SHE LOVES YOU! So thanks for coming out, I appreciate it.
I wore my retainer again last night. MY TEETH REALLY HURT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I think I'm going to have to go on a liquid diet until I can chew again!
I'm tired today because I was up late last night (and by late I mean 11:30) writing a new song. Guess what Becca? IT'S A CHRISTMAS SONG! I'm excited. Now my goal is to write a FAST Christmas song.
I also have my own sweet version of Angels We Have Heard On High. I'm gonna try and video tape it and Jingle Bell Rock and post them on Youtube.
In two weeks, my new church is going to show the movie Elf right after the service. No need to mention HOW INCREDIBLY EXCITED I AM TO WATCH THE GREATEST MOVIE EVER MADE!
Well, I literally don't have anything else to tell you since I just saw you this weekend. I was just really bored so PLEASE write back so I'll have something to do the rest of the day.
With Hope of a Quick Response,
Rachel
I wonder what a honey pie would take like? And entire pie filled with rich honey. I'm going to guess disgusting.
I turned the vibrate off on my phone in my touch settings so you can't hear when I'm texting at work. But I mess up more because I'm not sure if I'm actually hitting the screen. I'll get used to it.

BECCA BECCA BECCA!!!!
I forgot that I had more to say so I figured I'd better go ahead and post it before I forget again.
1) SHOOT I ALREADY FORGET THE FIRST THING!
2) Megan said the chaplain at the hospital her grandma's at is really cute. She found him on facebook and it said he's single. She's excited now. She's going to try and figure out how to talk me up. She's so funny with her match-making passions.
3) My butt is bruised from my spinning class.
4) One of the women I work with got bitten by her dog two days ago. She had to get 9 stiches in her hand and have it wrapped up and she can't write with it. Intense dog.
5) Speaking of dogs, I had a dream about a black lab and it was a glorious dream because I had an awesome dog. I really want a black lab now.
6) I will definitely be on twitter more now that you are on. I never had anyone to talk to on it before since Justin Beiber started ignoring my tweets.
7) There was still something else I was going to tell you, but I forget. I'll post it as soon as I remember it.

HoneyBee,
You know what musical honeybee makes me think of? Phantom of the Opera. But that's mainly because I'm ALWAYS thinking about Phantom of the Opera.
I'm going to text you about Mama G's birthday because I just don't feel like writing it out right now.
I've played the diaper game at a baby shower before. I'm upset that you got to experience it because that's what I was going play at YOUR baby shower with the hopes of completely disgusting you.
Megan told me there's a website where you can design your own muppet and have it sent to you. I have to ask what site it was.
I watched an episode of Grey's Anatomy during lunch because I was bored. That was a mistake though because I haven't watch the show AT ALL this season so I was completely lost and oblivious as to the happenings occuring during the show. That was an awkward sentence. AWKWARD EAGLE!
I also listened to a sermon from the pastor at my new church about the purpose of life. Here are the three points he hit:
1) Life's not about you, it's about God
2) Life isn't random but controlled and guided by God
3) The Purpose of life is to know God and have a personal relationship with Him.
I agree on all three points. This pastor is a young guy and reminds me a lot of Jeremy Carr, which makes me like him even more.
Gym Matt, as in 33 year old Gym Matt, implied that I was cute last night when I entered the gym. Allow me to re-create the moment by typing out the dialogue as if it were a TV script:
(guy enters gym right in front of Rachel)
Matt: (in loud announcer voice) Ladies and Gentlemen, Mr. Whatever His Name Was!" (Rachel enters gym) And here's Rachel"
Rachel: "How come I don't get a big introduction?"
Matt: "How do you pronounce your last name Rachel?"
Rachel: "Fuhrman"
Matt: (in loud announcer voice) "Ladies and gentlemen, Rachel Fuhrman!" (looks at guy who entered first and shrugs shoulders) "Sorry man, she's cuter than you. She's cuter AND she takes my class."
Result: I felt very awkward and didn't know what to say. AWKWARD EAGLE!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm wearing my first sweater of the season today. It's purple.
Look up the video of the baby cheetah at the San Diego zoo. CUTEST THING EVER!!!!!!!
What else did you talk about? I don't remember. I'm going to go.
It's been Enchanting,
Rachel
P.S. Remember how you don't like that song "Love Like Woe"? Well it's super popular now and the band is becoming really big. I win.

Honeybear,
Forget you,
Becca
What does honeybear remind me of? It's on the edge of my mind... come on Becca...... it's a musical. What musical? RENT!!! Yessssss.
You know what I think would be fun? If I came out to C-bus for Mama G's birthday. I don't think I can afford it, but that would be a blasty blast. We could party all night long. Channeling Lionel Richie. Speaking of Lionel, I watched an interview with him on CBS Sunday Morning (the world's greatest news show, excepting The Soup), and learned that he is not so big over here anymore, but he is huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuge in Europe and Asia. People were crying all over the place. Nothing like some classic R&B. For those uptight Brits, it must sound like freedom.
I don't think I need to express to you how upset I am that the US lost the world cup bid for 2022. I know it's 12 years away, but now I am going to have to wait even longer than that. AND Spain/Portugal (joint effort by the Iberian Peninsula) lost it to Russia for 2018!! What is UP, world??!? Nothing against Russia though; God knows I love me some Slavic culture. But I can't afford to go to RUSSIA or QATAR. Mannnnn. We would've rocked it. Stupid soccer-ignoring culture.
Twitter is fun. I think I am going to like it. I don't care that it's trendy!!! But you will have to get on more to talk to me now.
We had a baby shower for my boss today. It was a surprise, but he totally knew. He came up to us, knowing we are the innocent and honest VISTAs, and was like, "What's uhhh... what's gonig on in the conference room?" And we were all, "NOTHING!!!!! I mean, umm, I don't...know..." Horrible. The cake I just ate was goooood though. And there was a game where they melted candy bars in diapers and you had to guess what it was, but I was so repulsed that it looked like you know what that I almost gagged. I did well, though, proving that I indeed eat too much candy.
This is a picture we used to decorate for the shower. I myself was disturbed. I will now disturb you.
Forget you,
Becca
Honey-Poo Becca,
Welp, it's 9:00am. I've been at work for half an hour and I am already out of things to do. I'm sure something else will come up, but so far it doesn't look to be too exciting of a day.
In regards to you ONCE AGAIN STEALING A MILESTONE POST FROM ME, hate runs cold through my veins deep into my soul towards you. I WILL HAVE 200!!!!!!!!
So you know how I spend 75% of my life daydreaming ridiculously unrealistic love stories about myself and the guy of the moment? Well I thought to myself yesterday that I should start writing them down and creat books out of the ideas so I can make money off my wasted daydreaming time. I feel like I could be the next Nicholas Sparks.
Shoot, I forget what you posted...Nope, drawing a blank. All I remember is you talking about Danny Wentzel, AGAIN! I think you have an unhealthy obsession with that boy. And I can say that because I am an expert at unhealthy obsessions with boys. Just to clairfy, I'm not implying anything about, you know, feelings or stuff like that. I just think it's funny that whenever you think of something odd and funny, your mind goes to Daniel Wentzel. I think he should go by Daniel. It makes me think of a lions den, which I feel Daniel Wentzel could totally handle.
Megan sounds so professional on the phone. I don't. I stumble over my words like a blind man with only one leg trying to do the electric slide.
My Pandora station seems to like to play the song "I'll Be" by Edwin or something. I like the song by geez Pandora! I think it's trying to tell me something. Perhaps Pandora is in love with me? Fun Fact of the Day: "I'll Be" was our prom song for my senior prom. It was SUPPOSED to be "You and Me" by Lifehoue, which I SOOOOO preferred, but the dumb people at my school counted the votes wrong. Sish. That's a word I just made up. It's used to show exasperation.
I remember something else. You asked what the answer was to my question. This troubles me Becca because it shows me that you clearly are not paying attention to what I wrote. The answer to my question is I was Smugging, a word I invented and defined at the beginning of the blog.
I have decided that my wedding will be like the one on last week's episode of Glee.
Megan and her boyfriend are always trying to set me up with people. Megan it's not so weird because I know her. Her boyfriend trying to set me up with people is a little more strange. At least Megan knows my religous values and only considers guys she knows are religious.
Have you ever noticed that a surprising number of TV shows take place in Ohio? Drew Carey Show; Hot in Cleveland; Greek; Glee, etc. I think Ohio is more awesome that people think or give it credit for. Plus, we are the birthplace of Katie Holmes. Now THAT'S something to be proud of.
Saturady is Mama G's birthday. Prepare yourself.
Adebedebede That's all folks
