The Battle of the Fruit Cup

So I bought 24 tiny cans of fruit. Just the right size to bring to work or eat for breakfast, plus it's fruit and who eats enough fruits and veggies? I bring 2 cans to work on for a snack and one for with lunch. First can I try to open the ring thing pops right off leaving a nice whole in the top of the can where the ring was attached. So thinking DelMonte labelled these easy open cans it must be a fluke so I go to open the second can this one starts to open just enough so I can see the fruit and then off comes the tab. So I put them back in the refrigerator thinking I can bring a can opener tomorrow. Then I get angry and get the one that was open just a peep and pry the lid off with my staple remover (which I'm sure it very sanitary) so at least I can eat it. Of course I take the second can with the one millimeter whole in the top as a personal challenge against me. I try the staple remover that didn't work, I tried a scissors that didn't work, binder clip no at this point I'm pretty sure all my office supplies are covered in lite syrup so I give up and throw it away. The score is now 1 Kelly 1 Fruitcup 22 battles pending...

Sarah S. wrote a poem too : )

Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
I really really want to go home...
I want to go home so badly I could pull my hair out....
It's a three day weekend and we better not be here past 1 o'clock....
I have too much stuff to do to sit here all afternoon....
I really really want to go home....
How about you?

Poem of the Day

i am so bored
i am so bored
i am so bored
i should go home
i am so tired
i am so tired
i am so tired
i could sleep at my desk
i want to sleep
i want to sleep
i want to sleep
and never wake up
during the week
i should go home
i should go home
i should go home
but i wouldn't get paid
i am so broke
i am so broke
i am so broke
i have to stay at work
working is fun
working is fun
working is fun
that's why i'm here
i am delirious
i am delirious
i am delirious
i should get caffiene

Here's my cable knit scarf I started over Christmas vacation, if only I would work on this. I'm not motivated to work on this at all. Actually the only thing I seem to be motivated to do is lay on the couch or sleep. Oh well : ) Maybe motivation will suddenly strike me over the weekend.
