Porpoise?

Today, on the phone, Beryl says:
"My nephew had a stuffed porpoise stuffed animal that he just loved."

Porpoise? As opposed to a dolphin? Could you really tell the difference?

Time flies

Beryl said to me today, "You know what they say, time flies when you're having a good time."

What? As opposed to time flies when you're having fun, I suppose. She claims that I have a different version of this adage because I'm younger. I disagree.

Peace

Beryl: (after I made some semi-rude comment) You don't want peace do you?
Me: No, I don't want a piece of you Beryl. Are you trying to intimidate me?
Beryl: No, PEACE, not piece. (walks out of the office)
Beverley: (laughing) Well, that does sound like something she'd say.

something in the air

I am just posting today because I feel like the happiest person around!?!??! I have been giggling all morning. What is going on?!?! I think there is something in the air!!! By the way, how is the new office-mate?!?

Chicken

No, Beryl isn't a chicken, but she sure loves eating it. She has told me on several occasions that if you use wine when cooking chicken that it opens it up and allows it to better absorb herbs and spices.
She made me taste her chicken when we ate lunch in the cafeteria today. I'm not a big meat eater, but I'll eat poultry from time to time, and I must say, it was pretty tasty.

Beryl on laundry

I had to do six load and that isn't even with my fall and winter clothes! I save on my cleaning bills because I'm allergic to wool.

Beryl on gambling

They do have nickel slots but they sure do eat up the nickels.

why?!?

Beryl asked me this morning if I am good for anything because I didn't know where the fedex papers are! she has to say sth along those lines everyday that i walk into the office?
why is she so mean?

Last Day

Today is my last day in this office-last day being 3 feet behind Beryl. Today is a sad sad day. I don't know what I am going to do without my daily dose of Beryl and Eliina. sniff sniff.......

alcohol

Can you imagine Beryl drunk?
