AGH!.....Just keep walking.....

Ok....sooooo Im at work. Imagine very quiet corporate cubefarm with hallways connecting other very quiet hallways to other cubefarms. Now imagine me calmly exiting my cube...going down two aisles......and then proceeding to make the long walk past 10 or so little hallways going to other cubefarms and eventually to the ladies room. ( I know you are just dying to work here after that exciting description).


As I reach the main lobby (second floor overlooking main security area, visitors area & security turnstyles), the carpeting turns into tile.


The tampon that I thought I secured in the waistband of my skirt tumbles out, hits the tile floor on one end (producing crunching paper sound).....skids about three feet and stops right in front of a very nice yet incredibly shy indian programmer who sits about 5 cubes from me and is walking the other way (back from his trip to the mens room).


YIKES!!!.....HUGE MOMENT OF SILENCE......all time stands still for a split second.....kinda like when you are in a car crash and it all goes surreal on your ass?!?!


I calmly continue walking, reach down....and with swooping action, I grap the tampon like its the possible third out of the world series.


I of course am chanting silently to myself...." just keep walking"...."just keep walking"......

I wonder tho......is this what you boys do with our tools when left alone in their presence? ( more pictures to follow.....blogger is acting all slow & shit today).....
