This has some reference to exact quotes in the episodes, so it will make more sense if you've seen them recently, and also you'll be able to tell which parts come from my shippery imagination. (but they could have happenned, don't you think?) Also, for those wondering, I am from Mexico, and that might explain some mistakes or my tendency to write looong sentences; I'm used to those in Spanish, my native language. Enjoy and feel free to criticize, give ideas, and also to encourage more chapters! ;)
The Whole Art of Bantering.
(A Proportional Response)
I do know everything, I'm just saying.
Wrote down that I would find out about Sam and I did it, didn't I? although without much detail, but I have a pretty good idea.
And of course, I do make plenty of substantive contributions.
Don't have much time to make sense in here today, (I do have things to work on) but I guess that's an advantage of keeping a diary, just some daily nonsense.
So: It was a typo. And that second time someone was at my boss's office and my not telling him? Of course I didn't care that much, actually, I didn't care at all. But that's it for the day, lets not get sour with thoughts of unpleasant gals.
Oh, and also: he really can "pick 'em." I mean, he picked me, though I didn't give him much of a choice, but if my employment should be any kind of parameter then, well, I'm pretty sure this Charlie guy will turn out to be valuable.
(Five votes down)
It's been kind of crazy, with all the running around trying to get the pesky five votes that got away. Of course, it was a very busy day, but I think this sort of issues are exactly the ones my boss likes to fix, he really enjoys this kind of fight. And well, they actually did get the bill passed, but Hoynes (fine, Vicepresident Hoynes) got most of the credit for it.
In assistant's world, the day was, as a matter of fact, very amusing. It was all about the financial disclosure statements, and we all had fun with that. It also gave me some info on one issue that's been bugging me: Mandy. At first I hated seeing her scorn Josh about getting those presents from Sarah Weissenger, but later on, when I asked him jokingly how he ever thought it was a good idea to date her (mandy, not sarah!) I got a good answer. He said, and I quote:
"I've wondered that many times and I have no clue to how did I ever become such a masochist, but surely I will never again fall into that. She was always yelling at me, we would always be fighting and no, not a good-energetic-endearing-and-flirtatious-discussion like the ones w…."
He had been talking real fast, but stopped at that point and looked away from me. Then he started to squirm and shift awkwardly, suddenly spitting out for no reason whatsoever: "The President mixed his pain killers today!" After this statement he began packing as he said we were done for the day and that he would call me later, and then left.
I'll just say: Ha! That made me smile, a lot. I just feel like going over to Mandy and telling her that no matter how cute she thinks her feisty attitude is, she is rather annoying and really doesn't nail down the whole art of bantering!
Ok, I know I can't do that, but it felt good writing it down. And my phone is ringing, so I'd better wrap this up, to have a conversation about smoking jackets and cigarette holders and all that is NOT a colossal waste of time and energy. Good night.
