OK - back to fun stuff. Here's today's question - what is you little guilty pleasure now that you're older. Mine is standing at the refrigerator and eating both black & green olives for snack. At one time I was married to someone who didn't like me to even buy olives since he didn't like them. I'm at a point now where I realize olives aren't THAT expensive and I can treat myself whenever I want to (I even buy the big martini green olives - they are AWESOME!)
And speaking of green olives - here's my wierd guilty pleasure - having dad feed me a big green olive off a toothpick at cocktail time in AZ. I do sometimes peep like a bird.
(I'm now embarrassed that I admitted to any of that!)

This bliggity blog was supposed to be fun and silly....but I would like to say thanks to my mom and dad for being frank about their mortality, having estatest set up and having us 4 girls sit down and decide things prior to being forced to make decisions. Henry's family dealt with death like an ostrich - with their heads in the ground. This is the type of thing that could divide a family. Ugh - no fun

The title of this is "Am I A Smart-Alec or Am I Trying To Bring Levity Back To Work?"
Speaking of bringing things to work (do I sound like Groucho Marx?)...
Some "brain surgeon" who works for QBE decided that our office (and I'm going to assume ALL the offices ALL around the US) needed an 8" X 8" square sign at all doors into the office (we have 4) that show a handgun with the circle/slash through it...in otherwords - NO GUNS ALLOWED! Well, duh. SO, I printed on a piece of paper the words "Sho-" and "Ninjas or Samurais" and taped them to the sign so that it said "No Sho-(picture of gun), Ninjas or Samurais." [no Shoguns, Ninjas or Samurais]. I thought is was slightly funny. By the way, I did this on the sly - no one saw me do it. Well, that lasted about 2 hrs before someone took my work down. My friend Karen said the rumor was that the computer nerds who share our floor did it. Karen thought is was hilarious as did several other coworkers. My creative talent is being stunted at work.
So, what is it? Am I a smart-alec (and I'll wear that title with pride) or am I just a closet stand up comedian?
