I know it's behind me, not watching me, it has no eyes. Then, out of nowhere, it's stunted figure appears, stubby arms flailing. Slowly, silently, it takes on the form of a man, then stretches out into a distorted gangly shape evaporating into the darkness. My heart races. I run.

The Office

I don't know if this is legal or not...but I'm adding an odd thought to Aaron's blog! Aaron and I really like to watch the show, "The Office." If you haven't seen it, it's hysterical. I was dubious the first couple of seasons, but now that I actually sat down and watched it, I love it! I laugh so hard every week. Anyways...odd thought...if I had to have a job, I would so want to work for the boss, Michael. He is the biggest idiot in the universe and I think that I would be the happiest person in the world. I'd come home from work every day thinking that I had the greatest job ever. No one works there and they have things like "Movie Monday." It would be my ultimate job. Well...just something to think about!
