Return to Work

So I get back to work on Monday after we go to London and there is a nice sign on my door that says, "Welcome Back, We Missed You, Your Office Buddies". I thought, "isn’t that nice". I open my door and there is some paper on the floor and I think, "huh, that is weird." I turn on my light and I say to Tim whom I am on the phone with, "Um, I need to go there is toilet paper all over my office."

I look around and there are pictures of the Queen, Big Ben, The Queen with an umbrella, The Queen sitting for a portrait, A royal guard all taped around my office. There was some confetti that was supposed to fall on my head but their contraption failed. There was a sign that said, "This is what happens when you go on vacation without us! Buahahahahaha!" Lets see, they turned over my chair and shrink wrapped it. They shrink wrapped my bookcase and file cabinet. They shrink wrapped the things on my desk. They popped all the keys off of my keyboard and rearranged them, they taped down the button on my receiver on my phone. They taped over the mouthpiece on my phone. They taped over the optic sensor on my mouse, that caused it to kinda work...frustrating. They shrink wrapped the two office chairs in my office. It was quite a production.

They told me it took them about an hour and a half to get it all done. The cleaning guy helped as well as our neighbor who works at the moving company. It was truly a family affair. It was great. And then on Wednesday I told them I was leaving to go back to school to be a dentist...I felt a little bad leaving that camaraderie, but oh well. Not bad enough though.


****I had pictures posted with this but I don't know how to do that on here yet. So you are just going to have to imagine a lot of toilet paper and a really crazy office.****
