The Void that Bethany Left: Day 8 (afternoon) - The Memorable Lunch Errand with Claudeedah

Claudeedah needed a smog check, so of course I volunteered to tag along. After entering the “Smog Shack” in the wrong direction in a one-way aisle, she had to make a three-point turn. While going in reverse, she rammed into a pole (pictured below) causing significant cervical pain.



After the shock of the accident, I exited the vehicle and was forced to witness the booty crack of “Joe the Smog Shack Guy.” I thought low-rise jeans were so 2006.

The Void that Bethany Left: Day 8

Times are tough. The election is starting to wear me down, and I am losing my mind. November 5th cannot come soon enough. Over the weekend, I pulled myself away from CNN for two (2) hours to go the movies and watch "The Secret Life of Bees." Per Roger Ebert, "Bees is an Enchanting Parable of Hope and Love," however I found myself laughing outloud at the most inappropriate times...like when a character committed suicide, and when the lady sitting approximately seven (7) seats from me was crying so hard she was practically squealing. I clearly wasn't in the right frame of mind to see "Bees". I should've seen High School Musical 3....

The Void That Bethany Left: Day 6

S&M, Heather and Bethany were all out today, so work was a total sausage-fest. If not for this video, my day would have been totally devoid of any joy.

The Void That Bethany Left: Day Two (afternoon)

A race war is brewing. Cladeedah and SDM have had no choice but to ban together in the aftermath of Chris' highly offensive and racist comments. Without Bethany's presence, no one has been able to diffuse the racial tension. Okay, I'm exaggerating a little bit, but not very much. The point is: we need Bethany! It's very hard to not tear up when I walk past her empty office.

The Void That Bethany Left: Day 2

You totally missed it. Your friend Chris told me I wasn't a real minority because I could pass for white and because I didn't talk like a minority. Oh, also, he informed me that I've never been discriminated against. You seriously have to get back here so he can enlighten you with his wisdom as well.

The Void That Bethany Left: Day 1

The office has been strangely quiet today. JB is sullen. We miss our Bethany already...

Welcome Guest Bloggers!


I am going to Puerto Vallarta for some serious recreation starting tomorrow until November 1! Since I will have both my hands occupied with margaritas at all times, I have invited two of Dmitri's most elegant ladies to post on my blog to keep you people happy: SDM and Cladeedah.

I expect you peoples to be on your best behavior. If not, well, I won't do anything because I can't chase away both my readers...That's besides the point.

I know that SDM and Cladeedah will do a great job, but you have to promise you won't love them more than me!! Pinky promise with sugar on top?? awesome.
