Things NOT to do before a Cruise

Instead of booking a cruise to nowhere to test my sea sickness tolerance, I booked a cruise to New Brunswick, Canada (also known as nowhere *cymbal crash*).

However, here's a cautionary tale of what not to do before embarking:

1. Drink large, copious amounts of alcohol

2. Do shots

3. Stay out till 4am the night before leaving

4. Eat food once you get home and pass out at 5am

5. think that you might be able to go to brunch at noon

6. think that you might be able to walk upright before noon

7. believe that alcohol doesn't exacerbate sea sickness

8. attempt to drive a car after all of this

9. attempt to walk through a terminal carrying a large bag

10. tell your friend she's "running" even though she's walking normally through the terminal

LAME

So, I noticed I haven't blogged anything in April and it will be May 1st on Saturday, so I'm jumping to it. This month has been a complete blur filled with horribly last-minute projects and running around like a headless chicken.

However, now that my Annual Meeting is over I can sit back and....

1) fill out my time sheets

2) tweet for my own account

3) have after-work plans

4) eat fish tacos

5) wear fun dresses (this is more weather related)

6) work out

7) stop taking allergy medication

8) go shopping

9) return stuff

10) stop stress eating

Yay for May! Happy Bday end-of-Aprilers!

Lunch Topic of the Day!

So, my coworkers always randomly find some controversial topics to discuss at the lunch table and the discussion always leads to the one or all of the following:

a) a screaming match

b) saying something inappropriate

c) too much sharing

Today was: Would you want to know if your spouse/bf/gf cheated on you?

D's position was: Yes, honesty is always the best policy

E's position was: hell no, you lie. take that to the grave!

A's position was: Not if it was harmless 1-timer. Yes, otherwise.

J's position was: Yes, then cheat on him back! An eye for an eye.

Personally, i think you should date someone who's awful at lying - then you don't even have to worry about it. If you can't find this magical person, then I guess you take your chances. Though, I think some things should be agreed upon. Does your partner think strippers are dirty and probably carry STDs? Does your partner think communication is important and doesn't mind confronting problems when they arise? If yes, those are good signs. ;-)

However, I would say most women agree - if it was meaningless and didn't get past a certain point - keep it to yourself. If you feel guilty - GOOD. You SHOULD feel guilty. You should try to make it up to that woman every day of your goddamn life.

If it means more...you gotta fess up and do it QUICK. Anything less and you're just a coward.
