Funny Chats

I thought it would be fun to share a few g-mail chats that I've had with Jeff while I was at work. To find these clips, I started back when Jeff and I were dating. It was fun reading through them. Sorry it's kind of long.


10/25/07
Jeff: Work was okay today. I feel like I am on shaky ground. I am moving from something I do very well and enjoy doing to something I am poor at doing and don't really enjoy. I feel like everyone is speaking a new language to me that I don't understand.
me: Sounds frustrating.
Jeff: I am trying to make lemonade out of lemons, but I am low on sugar.
me: But at least you're going into it with that attitude. That's gotta help with the overall sugar level.
...
me: It's like you're stuck on an episode of the Office, but you're getting the raw end of the deal and there's very little humor. Office politics can sure be screwed up sometimes.


11/6/07 (Jeff was feeling sick and had stayed home from work. And by the way, this is the day that we started "officially" dating.)
me: So what have you done today? Watched any good movies?
Jeff: I watched tv and veged. Not any movies. I did some laundry and mopped the floor.
me: You mopped the floor?!? Wow, you're a much more active sick person than I am.
Jeff: with a swiffer quick and easy.
me: Oh, good.


1/28/08 (we had gotten in a car accident due to snow back in December)
Jeff: I was getting a lot of comments today about me dating. - Because we ran into my coworker at Boondocks.
me: oh yeah?
Jeff: One lady asked how my hot date was? I hesitated because I was thinking of you as my hot girlfriend instead of a hot date. She thought I was embarrased, but I wasn't.
me: :)
Jeff: She also said she knew because she heard that we had run into someone from work and everyone thought that meant we had been in an accident. Silly. Then my other co-workers reminded them that we had actually been in an accident a few weeks ago.
me: very silly. but hey - only off by a few weeks!
Jeff: Then they were asking me if I had made any big purchases lately. Them teasers. My coworkers knew i purchased a tv.
me: yep. coworkers can be funny like that


2/12/08 (Jeff was sick again. This was also the chat where Jeff came up with the phrase "much of bunches")
me: have you eaten much today? still sticking to brat and getting plenty of fluids, right?
Jeff: still on the brat. Bananas, apple sauce and toast. I will try rice tonight.
So I guess I am on the bat diet.
me: hee hee. :P


2/27/08 (Jeff was still feeling sick)
me: I hope you're having a good day. I'm having an ... interesting day. I've been very scatterbrained, and I kept getting frustrated and sighing outloud. I feel very disorganized. I'm thinking of going home early today.
Jeff: I feel a little scatterbrained after taking the pain pill.
me: hmm - what's my excuse?
Jeff: sympathy scatterbrainedness.


3/10/08 (we got engaged on the 8th, the Saturday before this chat; we're discussing signing Jeff up for Facebook)
me: no, you can't visit my site if you don't have an account. would you like my login info?
Jeff: I'll just set up an account later? Would I be able to view the stuff posted on your site then?
me: yes, after i approve that we're friends (you or i would need to request, and then the other would approve)
Jeff: I would hope you would approve that we're friends he-he-he;)
me: hmm, i might need to think about it ;)
Jeff: I'm glad you didn't say that Saturday ;).


10/7/08 (this was a week after I had surgery on my finger, so I had a splint or cast on my right hand)
me: it's cold at my work - i wish i had gloves
the heat doesn't work :(
Jeff: :( you could only really use one.
me: ha ha hadn't thought of that
thanks! u reminded me that i have a mismatched glove in my drawer
(i lost its mate last winter, but never threw it away) and it's the left one! :):):):):):)
Jeff: That's cool.
or warm.
me: :)
