Thirsty

There was a tender spot just below his ear, behind the curve of the jaw, where Michael longed to place his lips.

I had a pretty good day. A customer sent me a ‘dime’ and an RCF order. Another customer sent me a brochure for the Sundance Cruise Lines.

I enjoyed lunch with Larry Elkington and others for being the ‘Number ONE’ group in January Sales Excellence. I also received a free portrait shooting by one of Steph Redding’s photographers because I set-up an off-premise telephone service at no-charge.

I had a brief talk with Mark Landreth and with Joyce at the gym. Mark and I talked about the proper usage of the abdominal machine.  I couldn’t hold back from a flirtatious line.
I said, “Well, Thanks for not wearing that Sunkist half-tee shirt today. It makes me thirsty.”
Mark just laughed. I don’t think he caught my drift.

I tried talking to Joyce for a while but then she called David, the Nautilus employee over. That’s when I chose to exit stage left, assuming she didn’t want to talk to me any longer.

The gym experience was actually fun tonight. I didn’t feel up to par for my workout because of my bruised tit (or pectoral muscle). It’s still sore.

I stopped at SAFEWAY for some of my favorite YOPLAIT Yogurt and some sardines, oatmeal cookies, milk, almonds and a chocolate bar.

I tried watching the mini-series CROSSINGS again but decided to hit the hay.

Oh yes---I went to H and R Block and I received confirmation that I will receive $451.00 for my back tax discrepancy refund from 1982. This was due to the fact that my $2000 IRA Contribution had not been deducted. Hurrah!
