Yesterday I received an unsolicited Frosty. Now in general, one would think that would be a good thing.
But...
Susie asked me did I want one and I said "no." Then Cellmate brought me one anyway. So I accepted graciously, because it seems terrible to say "Why did you do that nice thing for me, you bitch?!" But then there was some confusion, because they forgot to ask the new person if she wanted one. So then they came to my desk to get the one I got ill gotten. But I had just opened it (hadn't even touched it with the spoon yet!!!!), so Carmen woudln't take it, even though I really, really wanted them to take it. So Carmen gave half of hers to new person, but CARMEN was the one who wanted them in the first place, so I insisted that CARMEN take part of mine, so she let me contribute to the bowl for the new person. I saw new person eating in kitchen. I rolled my eyes as I walked by and said, "Welcome to confusion land."
Cellmate, meanwhile, hates Frosties. She told Carmen she was never doing anything nice for Carmen again. :D
In other Cellmate news, apparently I went too far yesterday. She sorted the mail. The accountants' admin person, Judy, comes over looking for their mail. Cellmate said she gave it to them ages ago. I said (gently) to Cellmate, "No offense, but you have been kind of an airhead today..."
She was outraged! After the mail was found (on Cellmate's boss' desk), she told me that I was OUT of the will! I have lost the Mahj Trust! I am devastated. :( I must do something to make it up to her and get back in her good graces! Perhaps over the weekend I will make her something yummy.
