TA DA

I am happy to report that Brian and I survived the first day of school.

And, as only things go in my world...Brian's teacher is the x trainer from ATG.  I worked with her for two years.  Great lady.  She wants me to come to her class and volunteer to teach the kids computer hardware basics.

She also asked me how Tony is doing...lol...I have no idea.  Hard to believe Tony and I saw eachother almost everyday for over a year and I have no idea where he is...

I remember the time at ATG when P____ (the trainer) was talking to me at my desk and Andrew walked up to chat.  Andrew was this 20 something financial wiz kid who always liked to flirt with me.  He was a nice kid, who I never took seriously.  On this particular day, Andrew happened to be next to me - almost in my personal space asking me some damn thing.  Eric used to like to look up from his desk and roll his eyes.

I don't remember what Andrew was talking about, but up walks Tony with this odd expression that I couldn't figure out.  He grumbles a hello to Andrew and then steps in between us, almost knoking me backwards, then asks me a question about some IT problem he was having.  Andrew was the junior executive of the two and wouldn't move, so we had this interesting moment of pancake like uncomfortable closeness with me pinned up to the edge of my desk.  All the while Tony giving Andrew this "look".

I don''t know what that look meant or said, but Andrew backed off, threw up his head and said he'd come back later when I wasn't so busy.  Eric was now helping P___, both of them trying not to laugh.

I turned to Tony ready to ask him what his problem was, when he smiles his damn beautiful perfect smile and says, "Oh, I have to go take care of something" and is off in a flash. leaving me still up against my desk.

I turn around to Eric where P___ is leaving, and Eric grins at me and says "I love having you work here, the stories are great so far.."  I remember saying, "Fu-- you" and watching him laugh his deep belly laugh.  Mike (now at Vista) and Brian (from NAMC) peak up over their cubicle walls and ask me if I have on underwear.  I bust out laughing - now don't think this is sexual harrasment, cause I just loved these guys - all happily married.

I refuse to answer and their comment was "They are pussies and not good enough for you....although Tony is nice and comes with good perks"  Eric and I are laughing so hard  that CHuck, the CEO walks up.  Dead silence.  Chuck asks, "Catherine, hello how are you today?"  "Fine sir, thank you" I answer.  "Its a good day at ATG today then" and walks away. 

Eric flips me off...

God those were some fun crazy times.

Now P____ is teaching my son...

My life...I swear...lol

Until next time-
