Working in the office today. Just happens to be a day the boss buys everyone concretes from Oberweis. I went with the Reeses peanut butter cups... Super Fantastic Friday!

Now I'm jealous. A couple of months ago I bought the stuff to make peanut butter cup shakes at home. Never actually made one though. Instead I got home and also had a bag of shelled pistachios and ended up using all of the ice cream making pistachio shakes. And then the entire bag of peanut butter cups just sat there for the next month and a half waiting. So of course I just opened that bag up one night and destroyed them.

How a fat man like me lets an entire bag of peanut butter cups sit in plain view for well over a month I'll never know but I did.

oberweis is pretty damn good

Gotta say it was damn good. Damn good. I havent had ice cream in months. Not because im on a health kick or anything. Just hasnt been readily available.

My wife is making short rib risotto tonight for dinner. Never had it before, but I have heard it could be a whole 'nother rave of its own.

Cards beat down of the Chubbies tonight could make this an AMAZING Friday.

Jealous of the ice cream and short rib risotto (sounds awesome) but I did just get some good news from someone I work with.

I'm in a transition period where I have a new boss and she is learning the comission process working with me and my soon to be old boss for the first quarter and she had to leave a bit early today and there was just the normal 'have a nice weekend' type stuff and she threw 'stress free' in there because they know they are running me ragged covering the two jobs right now. I mentioned that I would definitely be relaxing and that as soon as I got off of work tonight I am heading straight to the bar to watch the Cards and Blues with a friend who works in our accounts receivable department. Well that guy just came up to me looking a little confused and told me that my boss stopped by his desk on her way out and asked if he was going to the bar with me after work. When he said he was, she handed him a ten and told him to buy me a couple of beers. And at the place we are going, a ten spot will get me four bottles and have a dollar left towards a tip.

Thats definitely Super Fantastic Friday!

My Friday was going pretty good until some lady puked in a trash can right in front of me. Hard to shake that mental image.

And time to go drink. Both bosses are gone. I just fired off the last bit of work that I'd promised someone they could get today. Yep, I'm done. I'll be throwing back some Budweiser within 20 minutes.

Have a great weekend all!

Not so much Super Fantastic Friday...

I need to know if the short ribs are in the risotto or served on the risotto.
