There are no words

I don't know how to say this (which is possibly why my career is coming to a grinding halt) but it's all over. It's been brief. It's been fun. But it is all definitely over.

Well who were we? Some of you will know. Some of you will just have to decide for yourselves...




I know that I could carry on trying to revive this blog but the line that The Writer has been trying to stop The Men from crossing has been destroyed. There is nothing left for The Men to do now but get as much line crossing out of their systems as they possibly can. And I think I might join them, focusing solely on making Boom feel as uncomfortable with my retaliations as possible.

So it's thanks to Golden Boy, The Writer, The Other Writer, The One Who Doesn't Speak, The Big Boss, Brainy, K, Boom, of course, and yours truely. And I suppose that CD is still worth a mention (he might know of a job so there's no point in ignoring him).

It's been grand. And I'll miss you all lots and lots and lots.

Thanks

Three weeks here can feel like a year

Keeping up with the Men and their antics isn't easy work when you have a real job to be doing. But here's a taster of the year so far...

A little sing-song
The Other Writer: Let me lick you up and down
The Boss:             Boys 2 Men!

Discussion over awards attire
The Boss:             Why don't we come in our own ties?
The Other Writer: Ha ha ha! 'Cum' in our own ties!


Romance is dead #3
K:                          If I've got to settle down there are worse people it could be with.

It's been a while

But by no means have the obsenities ceased. I've just been a bit lazy. Don't know why. Just have.

So... a quick update. The Writer is probably guilty of the most sexist statement of recent times - "They're getting very pregnant" - meant in their defense, but sounded completely different.

Boom of course is on top form - we had a bit of an incident recently when he crossed the line with me - something to do with referring to me as Babe, then Sugar Lips, then Sugar Tits. Big Boss had to be seen to defend my honour and stepped in, demanding an apology from Boom. Of course I accepted, otherwise I'd never talk or listen to Boom again, which would be pretty bad for this blog.

We had the Creative Team Christmas Party - ice-skating, boozing and karaoke. There were numerous stories I could tell, but they're all a little bit jumbled up. And I pride myself on the accuracy of my anicdotes. But if I could sum up the evening in pictures, I suppose it would look like this... but maybe not to onlookers...

           


And this culminated in the best rendition of "I've had the time of my life" performed by myself and K. I reckon it probably looked something like this...


Brilliant.

Well, I guess that's it really. I'm off 'til after Christmas now. But I'm making it my New Year's resolution to keep this up-to-date. So I'll see you soon, when this blog will be officially known as Mad Men 2011.

Merry Christmas. x

Mad Men will be Mad Men

Series 4 Episode 8 "The Summer Man" could have been shot in my office, using this Creative Team. If this were my office, we'd be watching Boom and Golden Boy fighting this one out. I'm pretty pleased that Peggy just stands by and laughs because nobody wants to be a Joan - although every office has one. There is absolutely no similarity between the way Joey speaks to Joan in her office and the way anyone speaks to anyone here - although I wouldn't put the moony past Boom. I'm referring to this clip.

Watch this space for links to more Mad Men clips of silly behaviour that puts them in the same league as this lot.

What an offer

Boom: Can you rub my back? I've got really bad gas.
Peggy: No.
Boom: What's the matter with you? I'm making tea!

Five minutes later...

Boom: I had to dunk my nuts in the tea a bit.

Mad Men Mr Men

Mad Men Mr Men

I friend of mine, Str8, sent me this link which is really fun. So I thought I'd share it with you. I haven't done any comparisons myself. I think I need to. Watch this space.

No, sorry, I don't.

This has absolutely cheered me up this Monday morning. I logged into Facebook this morning to see this...

"Boom here. Have u got any nail vanish re-mover, if u do can u bring some in tomorrow please. Long story x "

I love that I was the one he turned to. He's yet to arrive, so we'll see what's happened.
