O.k. so I am sitting at my cube at work when the urge to get some hot tea up in my system came over me like a fat kid lost in Willie Wonka's basement! Let me SPLAIN why ""Lucy"". I don't know who controls the temperature at da job but they keep that sucka working overtime on FREEEE-OOOHHH. I think it was so cold yesterday that it actually snowed in the office YET, it was 98 degrees on the outside. Go figure, anywho- I happen to be that proactive type of brutha who keeps tea bags and other goodies in my desk in case we get trapped in or worse--- (Mandatory Overtime).
Well Wardy walked in the break room and got a cup and filled it up with hot water and dropped in my tea bag and waited with great anticipation as the sugar slowly floated to the bottom of the cup. At that exquisite moment I realized that I need a spoon to stir my tea up. I looked frantically all around the room for the box of white plastic spoons. But to my surprise there was none there. I was krushed. But wait, out the corner of my (((supervisor's eye))) I saw a silver (rather dirty looking) spoon sitting all alone on a used napkin!!!! Should Wardy use it? Would Wardy use it???
The sad thing about it is, that I was seriously thinking about using this spoon. But my coolness wouldn't let me go out like that. So I thought about using my stapler to stir the tea, but I need to get my assignments out and needed that stapler dry. I then thought about using a pencil, but saw to many episodes of Oz and passed on that. I know you thinking I could have used my fanger but.......Look man.....I said that tea was hot!!!!! Remember I am still black suckers.
O.k. this is what I did..........I sat there and drank the tea that tasted suspiciously like water with a hint of strangeness. I saw the sugar but couldn't taste it. I learned a lesson today. I must remember to steal spoons when I go out to lunch at restaurants!!
I am Ward....
