Throw Me a Life-Raft...

i'm drowning in a sea of embarassment. my morning at work started off in this manner...

Alberta, HR director (my "big" boss as i call her, because she is the boss of my boss) walks into my office and says hello in a very cheery manner. she then goes on to say that she's waiting for Nicole (another HR employee) to come in because they had something to ask me. gulp. right? i'm thinking...oh crap. what did i do?

so Nicole walks in and they both stand there looking at each other then looking at me awkwardly. that is, until Alberta says, "So, do you want a boyfriend?"

"(insert me sputtering some nonsense until my strangled trying-not-to-sound-desperate-voice says) um...no?"

i mean, what was i supposed to say, "yes." haha. i know...i should have. so then Alberta asks "Oh, so you have a boyfriend?"

and then i feel lame answering, "no."

so then both of them smile at each other and go on to say that they think this guy who came into the bank yesterday, who works at the Tech college in their Training Dept. would be a good fit for me. and they wanted to see what i thought of him. lol.

yesterday when i met him...i can't even remember his name now, i thought he was cute. he also looked like he was in his mid to late twenties. which, i have nothing against, but my mind finds it highly unlikely that someone that age would want to go out with me. turns out i was wrong about his age...he's 22. so i told them that if he happened to be back in the bank, i would talk to him, but i would not be set up with him. and evidently we (Alberta, Nicole, and i) were on the same wave-link. Alberta said that he'll be coming back to meet with them next week...

haha. amusing.
