P: Why aren’t you wearing your pink Uggs? They would’ve matched.
B: Cause… They would’ve gotten dirty. They’re in the car.
L: What are the most comfortable shoes you’ve ever owned?
B: These ones
L: Oh Nike?
B: Mm hmm
L: Have u ever owned an echo?
B: No but I’ve heard an echo
L: Really? Me too. I’ve also seen a rainbow!
B: I’ve heard an echo, I’ve made an echo, but I’ve never owned an echo
L: Have you ever yodeled?
Phone rings interrupting the most fascinating conversation of the day!
Oh and earlier that same day,
I don’t remember what we were talking about (and its bugging me cause I can’t stop thinking about it) but I mentioned the Taj Mahal, Oh wait I just remembered.
L: This snow is making me crazy (or something to that effect). And they’re so bad at cleaning the roads here. I should really move to Westminster. They’re really good about cleaning the roads after a snowstorm.
B: You would really move to Westminster because of that?
P: You should move to India. It doesn’t snow there.
B: Yeah. Totally. You can live near the Taj Mahal.
P: I don’t think it’s very clean there. Too many tourists.
L: So this Taj Mahal place. Do you like go there to visit on Sundays… to like worship or something?
P: Bwahahahahaha
P: That’s like me asking you if you go to the Statue of Liberty to hangout on weekends. It’s one of the Seven Wonders of the World!
B: Why? What are the other 6?
P: Um the Great wall, the Pyramids, the Leaning tower, the Eifel tower. Crap! What are the other two? Is the statue of Liberty one?
B: No. I don’t think anything in America is.
B: Crap. We should know this. This is driving me crazy. I’m gonna look it up
2 minutes later
P: Did you find the other two?
B: No
P: How long does it take? Wait I’ll google it.
P: Wow! Why are there so many? None of these are what we said.
L: Do you think Glenwood springs could be one?
B: heeeeeeeee No Linda. I somehow can’t see that on the list
P: Oh look I found it. The other two are the Statue of Liberty (See I told you) and the Hanging gardens of Babylon
B: Where is this hanging garden of Babylon?
P: Um... in Babylon
B: Oh I thought Babylon was like a mythical place or something
P: Bwahahahahaha, a mythical place? Do you also think Jerusalem and Bethlehem are mythical places?
B: Noooooo. I don’t know
Manager walks in.
B: Can you name the 7 wonders of the world at the top of your head?
M: Um no
P: Did you hear what L asked me about the Taj Mahal?
B: No. Isn’t that like some sort of a government building?
P: OMG no! Okay there was this king who loved his wife a lot. Then she died. So he didn’t want to build just a regular tombstone for her so he built the Taj. It’s his declaration of love for her or something!
L: Ohhhh! Hmmm
We learn so much at work everyday! No?
