funny things at work

So two things that are funny happened at work.

First I was talking with Brandon and my boss, Proctor, about Proctor buying a car. So Proctor was talking about how he wanted a land rover cause he thought they were cute. I asked him why and then quickly realized it was to get up the big hill to his new house. I suggested a Subaru Outback, and he said, "What, do I look like a lesbian?" I paused for a second and said yes. yeah..Proctor flipped me off. it was funny :)

Later that day, I had music blasting in my ears from my iPod. Talking to myself debuging the 2nd to last CFC (ColdFusion Component) for the admin for Benefits. And this guy that sits behind me comes up and tells me that I'm distracting other people around me, by my talking/humming/etc and then Jeonia pipes up (she's an older lady that sits to my right) and says that she's not being bothered, and that he should speak for himself). I agree with Jeonia. I told him I'd try to keep quiet.

Here's my problem though, when I get interesting in something, the rest of the world kinda stops existing. I do my best work in this state too :) Besides, he didn't complain when there was 4 people (including his boss (and me), I think) talking just a few steps from my cube, so why when it's just me? Oh well. I guess I'll try to behave.
