Charmed Lives

Some days drag on so long in the office that I wonder if my company has paid off Father Time to slow the minutes. I even had a long lunch today (L’s manager didn’t come) and it still seems as if time has come to a complete stop. I really feel like this guy, even though, I swear, I haven’t touched the stuff.

To add insult to injury, as I sit here in my cubicle, I think about how my friend, who a year ago sat in this very spot, is probably making muffins in Hawaii as I type this sentence. She acquired this B&B in December and then without any effort on her part, like magic, the New York Times just ran a whole article about great deals in Hawaii, mentioning her very establishment. She emailed me last week to say her phone started ringing off the hook the morning the article ran.

I am so happy for her that things are working out so well. She deserves it. If she’d find time to get to the computer, we could launch her new site and maybe even get me some exposure, so maybe I could escape my life of cubicle imprisonment.

As happy as I am for her, which I am, truly, I can’t help but sit here inside this building on a Friday afternoon and think, “What a bitch!”
