Why My Company is Cooler Than Your Company

Today all employees of Coptix are getting personalized iPod's and some other schwag. Lovely Lovely. I'm thinking Blackberry's for everyone as the next gift.

Yesterday April & I spent the day at the Kitsch Capital of The Word Helen, Georgia. It was a hilarious time. Bad faux-german food coupled with bad faux-bavarian stylings coupled with every last older person in northeast Georgia roaming around like the living dead; it made for a rather amusing time. Me, I liked the Samurai Sword shop. You know, for its authenticity. Will say, the Hansel & Gretel Candy shop was mm mmm good.

Line of the day: "would you like to try some of my Roebraten?"

Got some big things this weekend: Michigan vs. Minnesota in the class "Battle for the Little Brown Jug." Plus UGA vs. UT 'tween the hedges. I'm planning on a day of glorious college football fun, provided I'm not too exhausted from poker the night before. Me, Hunt. Choltonian, Paton, and hopefully Brent n' Sweet will be reveling in college football goodness most likely at Taco Mac.

Got some other news I'll toss up atcha later when I've got more time.

I am extreeeeemely envious. Too bad the Very Large Insurance Company doesn't do the same thing, although it would probably bankrupt them.....

My Dad and his partner gave all the guys who work for them pods last Christmas. But did I, his own daughter, get one? Noooo. It must be some kind of computer company rule that family don't get cool stuff!

1. Hire me, now.

2. I love Helen, Georgia. I haven't been since I was a kid, and beg my fiance to take me all the time. I haven't talked him into it yet, sadly. Hahakekeke.

Can I work for you? BTW, if you're looking for a good Friday night poker game, I've got a great one.

whoa! thats cool the best thing I ever got from my employer was some silly pen that didn't write.

I actually got some cheesy schwag from my company today after I left that last comment. Let's just say it wasn't an iPod.

Sigh...
