a little slice of random on a quiet wednesday morning...

the office is quiet... more quiet than usual on a first-wednesday-of-the-month... everyone is in meetings and the press isn't running because richard is at the doctor's office... i love these mornings, if for no other reason, because they're quiet... in a minute, i will put on some music louder than i would normally have it and sing as loud as i want to...

the picture is the most random picture i've ever seen... it's my friend erin's physics professor... this is the picture i pulled off his website... evidently, his hair is white now, instead... but that's what he looks like... i'm pretty sure it's the most random thing i've seen this week... but it seems to fit the flow of the randomness on my blog this week...

we had a "welcome to our team" party today at work... we have two new employees (sort of)... they've been around for at least a month, but we celebrated today because it is staff day where we have staff chapel... and everyone is here... to celebrate, they had pies... i really like pie... on my diet plan i'm totally not supposed to have any... and if it had just been banana cream pies or apple pies, i totally would have been able to walk away... but i was super hungry this morning from not having any sort of breakfast... and they had pecan pie... my favorite... i guess i could have resisted, but rather than resist, i opted for a half of a piece... that way i could still have the pie i wanted without feeling as guilty about it as i normally would have...

but it's left me wanting milk... so i may just have to make a starbucks run and get an iced latte... not quite the same as milk, but it will fill a void that water just won't fill... i am going to try and slip out unnoticed and head to starbucks for a good little treat... and then i'll come back and resume the music and singing...

i love the first wednesdays of the month!
