Vlad Yakamura: Nothing like a brisk winter morning to get the blood pumping.
Ilsa Fujimoto: or get frostbite
Vlad Yakamura: You're picky
Vlad Yakamura: Weren't you wondering who Ashley Tisdale was yesterday?
Ilsa Fujimoto: yes
Vlad Yakamura: she's from that High School Musical thing
Ilsa Fujimoto: and what exactly is that?
Ilsa Fujimoto: and why don't people check their voice mail?
Vlad Yakamura: Even I've heard of the High School Musical phenomenon
Vlad Yakamura: and maybe some people aren't slaves to their phones
Ilsa Fujimoto: why have voicemail if you don't check it? Morons
Vlad Yakamura: Checking it and returning calls are two different things
Ilsa Fujimoto: really, I didn't know that
Vlad Yakamura: Now you know
Ilsa Fujimoto: my point is why do people call you back because they see you called and ask what you wanted. Ummm, checking your fucking voice mail
Vlad Yakamura: Ahh, I thought you were complaining that someone wasn't returning your call
Ilsa Fujimoto: well, make sure you get all your info first, next time, trick
Ilsa Fujimoto: I fucking hate people
Ilsa Fujimoto: especially those that don't know the difference between present and past tense
Vlad Yakamura: First of all, give me the pertinent info so I'm up to speed, tramp
Vlad Yakamura: And people aren't exactly thrilling me right now, either
Ilsa Fujimoto: I would have, been you were too quick to be all judgey
Vlad Yakamura: Hello! It's what I do!
Ilsa Fujimoto: true
Vlad Yakamura: I have that Seal "kiss rose grave" song in my head
Ilsa Fujimoto: well at least it's a good one this time
Vlad Yakamura: eh
Vlad Yakamura: I prefer Crazy
Vlad Yakamura: The Alanis version rocks
Ilsa Fujimoto: of which song
Vlad Yakamura: Crazy
Vlad Yakamura: I'm so mad. I had my dinner plans all set in my head and all my ingredients. I was going to leave here and dash home and make a delicious smoky, turket shepherd's pie.
Ilsa Fujimoto: but.....
Vlad Yakamura: Board meeting
Ilsa Fujimoto: bastards
Vlad Yakamura: I'm waiting for the "it's too cold phone call or email"
Ilsa Fujimoto: maybe you could call them to see if they are going to cancel?
Vlad Yakamura: Nah, I'll go. but it's such a bummer
Vlad Yakamura: the skin around my fingernails is so dry and chapped
Ilsa Fujimoto: you need to keep lotion at your desk
Vlad Yakamura: I have some, but now I have the cracks in my skin. Ow
Vlad Yakamura: Oh and I just lost control of my facial muscles and drooled on myself for no reason
Ilsa Fujimoto: hehe
Vlad Yakamura: I'm practicing for my dentist appt tomorrow. Why do I have so many things scheduled on the coldest week ever?
Ilsa Fujimoto: because you're plum loco
Vlad Yakamura: I made these appts and meetings weeks ago, missy
Ilsa Fujimoto: whatever
Vlad Yakamura: Oooh, the 'whatever' comeback. Haven't heard that one in like 5 mintues
Ilsa Fujimoto: or used it
Vlad Yakamura: Whatever. Ooops
Ilsa Fujimoto: it's like crack, can't stop using it
Vlad Yakamura: I don't know. I've never used crack
Vlad Yakamura: I should have called in sick, like a certain irritating co-worker
Ilsa Fujimoto: whatever
Vlad Yakamura: Stayed home and snuggled in bed
Vlad Yakamura: Mmmmmm, snuggly
Ilsa Fujimoto: man, this morning is flying by
Vlad Yakamura: It's not even 10:30
Vlad Yakamura: it's flying by when it's 4:30 by now
Ilsa Fujimoto: I know but I have a shitload to do today, when you say it's not even 10:30, I see it as yikes, it's already 10:30
Vlad Yakamura: Do you have to go out today? Or is it all office work?
Ilsa Fujimoto: It's all office day, but I should really try to track down some 70s clothes over the lunch hour
Vlad Yakamura: Brrrrr. I hope they're fur-lined
Ilsa Fujimoto: righteous
Ilsa Fujimoto: what kind of hand lotion do you use? Jergen's or St. Ive's are really good
Vlad Yakamura: Vaseline
Vlad Yakamura: Advanced Healing
Ilsa Fujimoto: both of these are even thicker and really help. Next time you come over, try them
Vlad Yakamura: ok
Vlad Yakamura: I'm going to Target
Vlad Yakamura: not now
Vlad Yakamura: I mean after work
Vlad Yakamura: I'll be checking out lotions
Ilsa Fujimoto: you will fall in love with them. I have the purse size St. Ive's and the Jergen's I use here. Try sample size of each
Ilsa Fujimoto: try the original formulation of Jergen's and St. Ive's has an intense healing too'
Vlad Yakamura: Ok
Vlad Yakamura: I still want my olive oil lotion
Vlad Yakamura: I want to smell like a greek salad
Ilsa Fujimoto: interesting
Vlad Yakamura: thanks
Vlad Yakamura: I'm using my new Feta cologne
Ilsa Fujimoto: don't forget the humus after shave
Vlad Yakamura: I just rub a cut garlic clove on my whiskers
Ilsa Fujimoto: I need my coffee, I'm almost out but the PD's office is over a week behind in processing payments
Vlad Yakamura: Bastards!
Vlad Yakamura: Let's egg their cars
Ilsa Fujimoto: right?
Ilsa Fujimoto: I would but I can't afford to waste eggs right now
Vlad Yakamura: hee
Vlad Yakamura: Let
Vlad Yakamura: Let's prank call them
Vlad Yakamura: I have made yet another tax appointment for tomorrow night
Ilsa Fujimoto: why another one?
Vlad Yakamura: My first one was scheduled by accident in Pewaukee. The second one was cancelled when I found out they make the mistake on my W2
Ilsa Fujimoto: 3rd time's the charm
Vlad Yakamura: That's awesome. You should embroider that on a pillow
Ilsa Fujimoto: I already did, happy Valentine's Day
Vlad Yakamura: Awww, so thoughtful
Ilsa Fujimoto: well, you are my apple dumpling
Vlad Yakamura: And you are my schnooky-lamb
Ilsa Fujimoto: where's my embroidered pillow
Vlad Yakamura: If you ask for it, you just might get it
Ilsa Fujimoto: really and truly?
Vlad Yakamura: I could make it happen
Ilsa Fujimoto: by the wave of your magic wand?
Vlad Yakamura: I can run to the craft store and buy one
Vlad Yakamura: and I know crazy people who do embroidery
Ilsa Fujimoto: Princess Tofu?
Vlad Yakamura: Yes
Ilsa Fujimoto: my printer is acting goofy
Vlad Yakamura: Really? Is it bothering Mickey and Donald?

Ilsa Fujimoto: your computer is slow
Vlad Yakamura: So are you, what's your point?
Ilsa Fujimoto: see, now I purposely didn't say like its user but I didn't beyotch
Vlad Yakamura: My computer is set by the atomic clock
Ilsa Fujimoto: whatever

Ilsa Fujimoto: I gotta scoot
Vlad Yakamura: Have fun
