Boo Bags and scapegoats

Someone picked the wrong day to mess with me!!!! Does anyone else know about 'booing' at the office? Well you come in bright and early one morning and someone has left you a bag of treats with the instructions to copy the directions, go get treats for two people and 'boo' them in return. I don't mind the old secret pal kind of stuff, if I chose to sign up for it. But I decided to play along since you get to put up a photocopy of a ghost that tells everyone that you've already been robbed of 10 bucks for treats for two people and they can't use you as a scapegoat for more. Well I just got Booed again! Apparently no one pays attention to anything anymore! Well forget it! I blew almost fifteen dollars buying candy the first time, making sure I had a good assortment. Thanks for the free bag of treats and the headache! Ha Ha! More for me!

speaking of scapegoat, I hate being a scapegoat. Do you have anyone who tells a friend, oh no, I don't have it, it must have been been someone else, and then you find out it was in fact them? For example, I have a looonnnggg memory and I can still remember when I was a freshman and enjoying the spoils of my detasseling season when I lost forty dollars in cash in my room. I was frantically searching for three weeks before someone who shall remain unnamed *cough,cough,BROTHER,cough* told me I could quit asking around because they took it and they would pay me back. THREE WEEKS! I was out of my mind thinking I had lost the money in some random location, asking everyone in the house if they had seen it and they knew exactly what had happened! Coincidentally, don't think that I don't remember that you never payed me back you unnameable person.
And how about that person who always says "what? You mean you didn't receive that yet? I sent it to you days ago." And then of course the item miraculously appears on your desk or in your mail in the next 24 hours. ARGH!!! I need a big ol glass of wine and some excellent cheese! That's it! I should go to the vineyard this weekend! Great wine and great cheese all from Nebraska! Alaina will be at her grandparents (Jeff's side) so I can hear the vineyard calling now!
