Last year one of my co-workers would always remark how my life was like a middle schooler's. I found his comment amusing, but just barely realized it is true!
I went to a writing training for work this week. On Tuesday we were asked to write a paragraph describing what we had done after class the day before and read it for the class. Most everyone's went like this:
- commute home for an hour
- make dinner for family
- spend time with kids
- watch TV
- go to sleep
Then it was my turn:
"Last night I went to the batting cages! When it was my friend's turn to bat, the machine stopped working. Somehow the employee fixed it a little too well, and for over half an hour it continued to pitch! My other friends and I would just switch off in this one cage, and were delighted that we all got to bat for only one token! Since we bought 5 tokens to begin with, my other friends who don't have to work today are going back to bat again!"
hmmm....at least I didn't add the truth that after the batting cages I went home and ate cereal and hung out with my friends talking about boys until very late at night!
Nah, that's more like high school or else your mom would have driven you there.
ReplyDeleteThat made me laugh. I love it.
ReplyDeleteYour life is awesome. And that's coming from someone who is spending the summer touring Europe.
ReplyDeleteThis is the exact reason why everyone wants to be you. It is a universal law that if Rachel is going to be at an event, it will by default be a great party.
