Busy, busy

Have been too busy with work lately to worry too much about boys. The most excitement I've had lately was flirting with a hot waiter at the Chi Cha Lounge in Washington DC last Thursday. Half price ($4) tapas during happy hour - I highly recommend the place. Hopefully I'll have some good stories to tell after this weekend. We're celebrating my friend Carolyn's 35th birthday on Saturday night with the crew - something fun and interesting is bound to happen then!

Oops!

Number one most-embarrassing work moment: yesterday afternoon I was in my office making some phone calls. I was calling someone in SF. I have to dial a "9" and then the number. Pretty standard operating procedure, right? I guess I was dialing a bit fast and I accidentally pushed 9-1-1-415 and the number, instead of 9-1-415, etc. I quickly realized my mistake and hung up, then proceeded to re-dial and I left a message. Well...about 15 minutes later, this really cute Sac PD officer shows up at my office door, soaking wet from the rain, and casually asks if anyone from our office dialed 911! I am sure I turned bright red - and I admitted that I made a dialing mistake and that it could possibly have been me. Oops! I felt like a total idiot, except it really was a very innocent mistake. Besides, the phone system should be set up so you have to dial 9911 if you have an emergency! Not my fault. The funniest thing was that he was not upset at all - in fact, he stepped into my office and commented on what a nice view I had from my window! Then, a co-worker said, "Oh, you should see the view from the other side of the office! Do you want a tour?" And he actually went on a tour of the office with her! Later, when he was leaving, I apologized again, and he said he didn't mind a chance to come in and dry off from the rain. Oh my gosh. Then, everyone was teasing me, saying that I called "911" to get a cute cop to come up to the office! I wonder when I'll hear the end of it. He really was cute though...
