<\/a><\/p>\nOk, enough nicey nicey, this is where the FOADing begins.\u00a0 Yesterday I made such an ass of myself at work.\u00a0 Well, not at work technically, just in front of the receptionist.\u00a0\u00a0 I had plans to meet up with my girlfriends for lunch at our usual spot, just I asked if they minded meeting a little later as I could only go on my lunch break.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 So I asked our receptionist if she wanted to join me, seeing as she is British and I thought she might like to meet some of the girls.<\/p>\n
On and on I went about all the different people she’d be meeting.\u00a0\u00a0 How much she’d like them and so on.\u00a0\u00a0 She was thrilled because she doesn’t really know a lot of people outside of her boyfriends friends and family.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 How cool I felt being the one who actually knew people!<\/p>\n
So we get to the meeting spot and THERE IS NOBODY THERE!!\u00a0 Oh god, I felt like such a moron.\u00a0\u00a0 I’m sure the girl must think I have imaginary friends or something!\u00a0\u00a0 I was sure at least a few of them were going to be there, I mean it wasn’t even MY idea to meet up in the first place!<\/p>\n
I mumbled something about the rain and people not wanting to come out with babies, but I knew I’d just been stood up, period.\u00a0\u00a0 It sucked.\u00a0\u00a0 We still had a nice lunch but man, what a way to make an impression.<\/p>\n
When I came home I promptly mailed the bitches and told them how much I hate them all (jokingly of course, kinda).\u00a0\u00a0 Then I realized that one of them had mailed me 1.5 hours after I was already at work and told me that the plans were off.\u00a0 Fat load of good that did me!<\/p>\n
We have plans to meet up on Friday, whether I’ll take the risk and invite any work friends remains to be seen.\u00a0 If I show up twice to no friends they’ll definitely think I’m a wacko lesbian trying to lure them out for lunch dates under false pretenses.<\/p>\n
I so wish I had a lock of their hair so I could make weird voodoo dolls and stick pins in all their boobies.<\/p>\n
haha I just had this hilarious mental image of what would happen if I did that, cuz all of my friends are either knocked up or just had a kid.\u00a0 I just saw them in my mind sitting at the table at the restaurant we all meet at with milk spraying all over the place.<\/p>\n
Shit, maybe I really AM a wacko, but I’m not a lesbian, I swear.<\/p>\n
err… not that there is anything wrong with lesbians, I happen to really dig Shane from The L Word… and now that makes me sound like a lesbian again. Great!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
One (more) thing I love about where I work is the view.\u00a0\u00a0 On the 10th floor in the middle of the city, I can see quite a lot.\u00a0\u00a0 So if I have a minute it’s nice to watch people out and about doing their thing.\u00a0\u00a0 It’s also nice when the sun is going down and …<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":6902,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8,6],"tags":[26,35,57,112],"class_list":["post-796","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-life-in-nl","category-tantrums-rants","tag-foad-thursday","tag-friends","tag-rants","tag-work"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.canadutch.nl\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/796","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.canadutch.nl\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.canadutch.nl\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.canadutch.nl\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.canadutch.nl\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=796"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/www.canadutch.nl\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/796\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4629,"href":"https:\/\/www.canadutch.nl\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/796\/revisions\/4629"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.canadutch.nl\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6902"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.canadutch.nl\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=796"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.canadutch.nl\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=796"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.canadutch.nl\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=796"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
