Sitting Behind Adam

adam broke the microwave ovens

2008-12-01T11:48:00.000-08:00

yes, not one, but BOTH!

after setting the first on fire with his aluminum foil rapped leftovers, he used the other to warm soup and somehow accidently threw it across the room. wow.

i remember when i once accidently knocked over the fridge, but this is just rediculous!

i am sitting at another desk...

2008-09-30T12:20:00.000-07:00

and yet, adam is still sitting behind me.

man date manana!

2008-09-23T07:28:00.001-07:00

will and adam will be dining manana at the Polish National Home at high noon. Jordan and Mike will be joining us. are you? C'mon on down and buy us lunch! we'll sign books other people wrote, sell lunch tour shirts and maybe even order extra perogi's! yeah, we live life like that!

This blog cannot be stopped!!!!

2008-09-23T07:23:00.000-07:00

yeah...so what if i am moving away!?!? i can still blog about all of adam's shenanigans in the office. i don't need to be here nor there. most of what i have written has been proved untrue anyways...so i think all will continue on.

for example, i was not here yesterday, but that won't stop me from writing about how adam left his coffee cup in the bathroom whilst enroute to the kitchen. watch me.

yesterday, adam left his coffee cup in the bathroom whilst enroute to the kitchen.

2008-08-19T12:02:00.000-07:00

william picks up shit under adams chair before it is crushed.

william, "wait, stop! i wanna blog that before you fuck it up."

thorazine.

adam always uses words like that. i usually know what they mean, but not this one. then he told me. this was all due to the movie i borrowed that showed Redman flattening out a piece of hash in order to use it as a rolling paper for a super strong blunt.

word.

ps. adam got up and went to the bathroom as i was writing the above.

Lunch and a post!

2008-08-05T10:02:00.000-07:00

Whilst walking to adam's car for lunch i started thinking about how much we have in common. When adam remarked, "Banks are dicks." i agreed and decided to compile a list of things we have in common while eating lunch at the Polish National Home.

here it is:

we both think banks are dicks
we are both fast readers
we both like G'n'R
we both write blogs
we are both yankee fans
we both like beer
we both like the spigot
the above 3 seem to be points of the same triangle)
neither knew for sure if titty bars have happy hours
we like space ghost coast to coast
we both like joe barber
we both like calling the above joey babaganuoush
we both give mayor perez thumbs down
we both give meir rinde thumbs up
we live in hartford
we have both hooked up with trinity girls
we both really like the Polish National Home
and unlike State Rep John Fonfara, we both know who ken krayeske is!

after realizing how much we have in common, things got awkward and we paid the bill and returned to work.

my original post

2008-07-18T13:06:00.000-07:00

OK, so I solved the riddle. Big deal. I'm a smart guy. People value my opinion. I'm no dummy. I can do long division in my head. I can recite the Magna Carta (OK, not really, but I can totally make a pun on it about japanese comic books, and call it the manga carta).

Anyways, adam and I just got back from the great Polish National Home in downtown Hartford. The food, as always, was delicious. I got the usual; a polish plate (kielbasa, sauerkraut, perogis) plus two extra perogis. The only issue I have is how much of a bonehead food coma I've been in all afternoon.

Which is another way of saying I solved the riddle again today.

mom's riddle

2008-07-17T07:26:00.000-07:00

ha! i keep looking behing me and seeing adam trying to figure out the riddle my mom sent me. he saw it whilst going to get water on my computer. i love the privacy here! please see an earlier post about his alleged water gathering here in the office.

ha! ha! it says he was going to get water on my computer...but not like that!

----- .This will Mess With Your Head....

3 MEN GO INTO A MOTEL. THE MAN BEHIND THE DESK SAID THE ROOM IS $30

SO EACH MAN PAID $10 AND WENT TO THE ROOM.

A WHILE LATER THE MAN BEHIND THE DESK REALIZED THE ROOM WAS ONLY $25

SO HE SENT THE BELLBOY TO THE 3 GUYS' ROOM WITH $5.

ON THE WAY THE BELLBOY COULDN'T FIGURE OUT HOW TO SPLIT $5 EVENLY BETWEEN 3 MEN, SO HE GAVE EACH MAN A $1 AND KEPT THE OTHER $2 FOR HIMSELF.

THIS MEANT THAT THE 3 MEN EACH PAID $9 FOR THE ROOM, WHICH IS A TOTAL OF $27, ADD THE $2 THAT THE BELLBOY KEPT = $29.

WHERE IS THE OTHER DOLLAR?
SEND THIS TO 5 PEOPLE AND THE ANSWER WILL APPEAR ON YOUR SCREEN... IT'S CRAZY

Adam eats Nuts!

2008-07-08T11:51:00.000-07:00

Slow news day.

One day last week Adam incorrectly identified some nuts!

I can't remember if they were actually almonds or incorrectly called almonds. This is a lame blog, so hopefully you had low expectations and are not dissappointed at my horrible story telling. For riveting story telling please check out www.sittingbehindwill.blogspot.com. Riveting!

Adam and his drinking in the office

2008-06-30T10:59:00.000-07:00

No, not beer. I know he doesn’t drink beer in the office. All the beer bottles on his desk are unopened…and warm. No, I am speaking of water. And actually, its not his drinking, but his gathering of the stuff. In the kitchen we have a water machine with two spigots of water; cold and hot. Many of us retrieve water there. I do as well. I fill my big plastic cup from Yankee Stadium with yummy, refreshing cold water or make tea in my mug with the piping hot water. Also yummy. I like the China Green Tea leaf the best. It’s the closest tea I have found to Ichiban’s green tea, which I greatly enjoy with lunch.

Well, Adam often forsakes the wonderful water machine and opts for lower hanging fruit. When thirsty, he walks only half the distance and fills up his cup/bottle/sheepskin at the water fountain in the hallway (the one with all the smurfs on top driving cars and holding poop or something.) I am not saying this bothers me or that Adam must be a sick freak, I’m just saying I have noticed. That’s all.

I will also say i recently learned the above may not be true. Well, the stuff about me is true, but new evidence and conversation with the aforementioned adam suggests he actually walks all the way to the kitchen. I believe he actually jogs or all out runs once out of the back office. very sneaky.

My Man-date with Adam

2008-06-13T07:00:00.000-07:00

Adam is a great dater! Wow! His girlfriend is soooooo lucky! Lucky i'm not gay nor a woman!!

Anyways, he was nice enough to drive us quickly to the Farmers' Market @ Billings Forge on Broad Street so i could buy a pie and some fresh chevre cheese. Yummy!

Next we flew over to Bushnell park to get some Thai Food on the Wheels. Yes, that is the name of one of the best Thai resturants in the area and yes; it is indeed...on the wheels. Ordering was funny as Adam ordered my favorite, panang curry with chicken. I did too, and also ordered us some spring rolls. Adam didn't take me up on my offer that is was ok with me to double dip. I did double dip.

We sat closely on a park bench at first, leaving half of it empty. It was a little wierd when I streached my arm out behind adam on the back of the bench, but we reveled in the awkwardness. We ate. We laughed. We soaked up some sunshine together.

Back in the office we sat down and began typing, checking messages and processing paperwork as we thought about our special time in the park.

Adam and Richard Simmons'

2008-06-10T13:24:00.000-07:00

Today I saw a woman out the office window walking up the street who looked kinda like Richard Simmons due to her hair and outfit. I spoke up and Adam looked and agreed about her hair.

I asked if he was still alive and soon Adam was waxing poetic about Richard's life and how ironically he never looked too healthy. I agreed.

Adam interviews Jon Stewart

2008-06-04T08:42:00.000-07:00

welll…..no, I didn’t talk to Jon Stewart, but I heard the other half of the conversation! huh? yeah! huh?

I returned from the road, walked into the back office and found Adam embroiled in a funny-ass phone conversation talking about mad subjects and trading quips and antidotes. Well, I assume at least. I mean, perhaps it was all a sham and he was just leaving a long voicemail message on his girl’s cel? No, wait, Dan commented about how Jon Stewart called perfectly punctual at 3:30. Hmmm……Perhaps it was Joe Barber calling? news.

The verdict? The dude’s a nice guy and pretty dang funny. And super punctual too!

Well, I guess that’s about it. Welcome to my new blog. I believe today marks a new low on the world wide webnets and I am proud to be contributing to its downfall.

This will prolly be by far the most exciting post, as after Jon Stewart, it’s all down hill from year. I don’t think I can even name drop Jon Stewart one more time before sounding ridiculous.

That’s the phone the phone used for the conversation!
