Fun Friday

Fun Friday is a weekly occurrence at work.  My coworker and I almost always take a mid-morning break for a cookie or piece of cake before we start a new activity for the day.  Fun Friday's name is derived from Funfetti Friday, the first Fun Friday which involved Funfetti cake.  Today I had a chocolate chip walnut bar before sitting at the computer to make several calculations and a powerpoint presentation.  Does anyone else hate Microsoft Office 2010?  Why is it so weird?  Why am I no longer allowed to choose the settings on my charts?  Why is Calibri not only the ugliest font, but also the least space-efficient?  My columns are becoming soooooo wide.

Those were some examples of questions I have asked myself in frustration today.  However, I must remind myself that these questions are probably an improvement over these past questions I have asked myself while working:
1.  Where did I leave my cell phone?
2.  Where did I leave my lab keys? car keys?
3.  Why are my arms red and swollen and feeling like they are on fire?
4.  How do I breathe through this dust mask after I sneezed in it?
5.  Why is there a stray cat in the dumpster?
6.  Why is this piece of equipment leaking gasoline and/or oil?
7.  Why am I still at work at 11pm?
8.  Why do geese hate me?
9.  How do I find the pen I just dropped in a densely weeded rice basin?
et cetera.

Also on Fun Fridays I listen to Science Friday on NPR and I always paint my nails.  I'm typing gingerly right now so I don't wreck my fresh manicure.
This nail polish doesn't stand out so well against my pink blog background.
