Planet of the Creeps

I took the first step towards self confidence today, I let those jerks on the fourth floor know how I really felt. Well, I tried to at least.

I heard this amazing song on my favorite podcast last night, it was called "High Road" from the group "Fort Minor." One line in the whole song stood out as the best insult I have heard in a long time.

I spent all day thinking about it. It's not very often you're provided with a verbal weapon of such sheer brilliance as I found in that song. I got so confident, that after lunch, I took the elevator down to the fourth floor to go tell them what I thought.

When I got to their workstations, though, they weren't even around. I turned around to head back to the elevator, when I saw them coming towards me.

I really wanted to say it then, but I just couldn't. When I saw them there coming towards me, I freaked out and made a dash to the bathroom on that floor. Unfortunately, I was too anxious and didn't even notice the "bathroom is being cleaned" sign on the floor. I ended up sliding across the wet floor of the bathroom and fell over, pulling the trash can with me.

So not only did I fall over, I had to pick up scattered paper towels, most of which were wet with what I am hoping is water while the janitor just stood and watched. He didn't even help me up. To make things worse, when I got back to the elevator, it was stuck on the first floor! I don't know what happened this time, but I had to take that stairs back up. It was one flight this time, but that didn't make it any easier on me.

In case you were wondering, the line was "You're like a high school dropout, no class."

Perfect, isn't it?
Anyways, I just got upstairs and I think I need to find my inhaler.
