Trash-talkin' bitty, that's me! Could this possibly be more awkward?
Today, I was helping a co-worker move her workspace (they are totally re-doing the bldg, tearing down walls and moving departments around) and the boss-men were having a screwdriver-throwing contest just feet away, trying to make the screwdriver stick in the wall. I told my coworker I'm a pretty good knife-thrower and I can kick trash and I bet I'd kick trash at the screwdriver too. She poked her head out from her cubicle and yelled, "hey, cali wants to issue a challenge, she says can kick all your butts at throwing that screwdriver!" It was quiet for about a second then they kind of laughed a little and went on playing. It's probably not a big deal, and I don't think she meant anything bad by doing it, but I was mortified. I think I froze, and refused to come out from behind the cubicle until they all had left. So. I'm on lunch break right now and have to go back in a minute and I just don't even want to go back to work. I know I care too much, but just last night I was telling Geoff that I'm tired of worrying about what my bosses think of me. Anytime they're around I get so nervous and it's very tiring. Anyway, that should help things, no?

After she said that, you should have yelled out, "yeah and I'll bust a cap on all you foos, too!"
And THEN see what your bosses think.
weird, I'm not even going to be around when that halloween counter is all counted up...
