Just another day in the office.

When I am in working in the office I generally start my day by making a list of things I need to achieve. Generally the list has things like: write this, find music for that, book this, call her, call him, send invoice to them, write that, pay him, sort out that, start to organise this, write schedule for that, shotlist that, blah, blah, blah, pass the nuts.

Today's list has a smattering of the above and a question.

Do we need a helicopter?

My list is mainly weird abbreviated scribbles that only make sense to me, but the meaning is:

Remind General Manager to hire boat for Monday so that we can watch enormous horse being pushed off cliff.

Find wood-fired pizza restaurant for dead body cremation.

Book palm-reader.

Call doctor re: maximum number of Botox injections allowed in face.

etc, etc, etc...

Outstanding! Your list doesn't include, 'Do bird to Prime Minister outside school for deaf' by any chance ?

No, that's obviously not on my 'To Do' list.

We've already done it.

laughykate said...

Heh. Of course!

PS. We do need a helicopter. We're having one on Monday to help with the horse cliff thing.

You're bound to need one too...

laughykate said...

Yes we do, thankfully no horses involved.

Good luck for Monday. I feel vaguely afraid for you.

I deeply believe that yes, you do need a helicopter. Everyone needs a helicopter. It's as close as we're going to get to the flying cars we were promised back in the 50's. Everyone deserves a helicopter, dammit. And, much like lube, there is always time for a helicopter. If we find that our lives are too busy, we should make time for helicopters. Ask not what your helicopter can do for you, but what you can do for your helicopter!

I think I may need to get more sleep. And I'd be able to get it, if not for those damned helicopters overhead.

Paparazzi, Fat Sparrow?

Fat Sparrow said...

Thanks for the laugh, I needed it! Still giggling away...

I'd like to say "Yes," but no, it's the ghetto bird (police helicopter).

laughykate said...

Ghetto bird! Never heard that before. Now that's a keeper.

Fat Sparrow said...

Dat's cuz you don't live in da hood, homegirl.

Yep, our children grow up learning to identify the various police helicopters, the way other children can identify birds, and the wildlife we have around here is the 2-legged kind.

laughykate said...

That's kind of cool - your children having a David Attenborough approach to the 'hood.

You should book a helicopter anyway whether you need it or not.

Feck it, I'll book two!
