Finding Solace in the Small Things

Sexy Town. That was the great idea I pitched as a way to rebrand our Old Town. Sadly, I don't think the idea will stick.

I can only attribute my whimsical idea to my post-vacation mode, which as I revealed earlier, appears to be fading fast.

But even still, I managed to make the best out of my workday. How, you may ask? Excess...

1. Enjoying a hot tea out of a tiny elephant mug at Changs Thai Bistro in Monrovia. And we managed to get a very cute photo on the Customer Wall of Fame (I don't think that's the real name for it).

2. Enjoying a triple shot of espresso from Friends Cafe. Unnecessary, yes. Delicious, yes. Caffeinated...an understatement.

3. Stopped into the new Old Town Monrovia store, Puff Monkey. Cute stuff if you have a child who likes Hello Kitty.

4. Filmed co-workers displaying their hidden talents. Filming has taken a long time dud to the fact that our employees are either camera shy or talentless. Or a third more viable option: they don't like me.

Meanwhile, my boss seems to want uptight Jen back. I'm sure that Jen will be back in a week...
