Winning the hearts of all.

So I am sitting here back combing my hair with such fury and volume that even Snooki would be impressed, and an event that happened like two months ago pops into my little head. It wasn't a bad event or even a good one, it was just a random little remembrance...

So let me set it up for you. I am in the library at work helping K (our school librarian) shelf books. And at this time I had just gotten my Celiac diagnosis so I was kind of lost on what to let my body consume. There are a few other teachers that are gluten free as well and I started talking to one and she has been so wonderful helping me out. So anyways I am stacking books and K is at her desk and S comes in the library and says, "Hey K, can I borrow AJ or moment?"

Now pause. This is what I did: K says, "yeah! Go ahead." And I follow S out like a little puppy not saying a word.

What I really should have done was say,"AJ has no master, AJ is a free elf!" And automatically I would have won the hearts of all staff members and then I would have been invited to the Cool Teachers table more often and we would have inside jokes. And even Grumpy Gills ice heart would have melted and she would be like, "Oh AJ, I am so sorry that I was ever rude to you and gave you attitude because you let me know you only had one copy left to do and then I could have the copy machine. Your Harry Potter reference was so awesome. Why hadn't I seen what a cool person you were? And that your extreme niceness isn't an act (even though it is) and that you are just an all around stand up person?" And the staff member would throw me a party and it would be awesome.

But no, I didn't say that witty little comment. So none of that happened. Grumpy Gills still two- facedly hates me. I sit at my table alone most of the times pinning shit on Pinterest at lunch. And the only inside jokes I have are the ones inside my head with my other personalities. But that's okay. They know how awesome and quirky I am. Just an all around stand up gal. :)
