Bricks!
Woohoo! I found my brick! Not that it was lost. Okay, misplaced is a better phrase. It was misplaced. I'm not sure how I managed to misplace a brick, but hey, this is ME we're talking about. Yay bricks! Who else can say that they have a gift-wrapped brick sitting on their window sill? It makes me giggle every time I see it :)
Speaking of bricks...
Another fun work conversation with my manager:

Jason: So, sometimes you just want to throw heavy objects at people, namely guests...
Me: Like bricks?
Jason: Yes, like bricks.
Me: I've got a brick.
Jason: See, there we go, Lauren's prepared, Lauren's got a - WHY DO YOU HAVE A BRICK???
Me: Long story.
Jason: I don't want to know.


And follow-up to the Wisconsin That 70s Show reference, courtesy of Paul:

Paul: and by the way, I personally think that That 70's Show depicts Wisconsin as the lamest state ever, where all everyone has to do is get high and go drink milkshakes or whatever...so basically what these people mean to ask is whether such "cool" people as Ashton Kutcher and Topher Grace really exist in Wisconsin...in either case, they should be bitch-slapped. :-P
