Fridays At The Office According To 'The Office'

The best day of the week -- better than Pretzel Day?

Fridays At The Office According To 'The Office'

You made it. After a grueling five days of staring at your computer screen, spinning in circles on your chair for sheer entertainment and counting down each and every minute before you and your co-workers take lunch, you've made it. Thank you sweet baby Jesus. Close that laptop, push in your chair (ha, or don't) and peace the heck out of the office -- it's Friday. Please enjoy my depiction of Fridays at the office according to the greatest television series ever created.

You roll up to work in an above average mood than usual! It is Friday: the day of the week where dreams come true. You make fake small talk with your less than pleasant co-workers and pretend you don't despise them.


The feeling only lasts so long and before your very eyes, mounds of work are plopped on you desk! You are massively distressed by what your work day will consist of.


You get back to your desk after a long lunch filled with mindless chatter regarding weekend plans and how badly you want to go home. Yes, we get it, we all want to start our weekends! You open back up whatever you were working on before lunch, but you know you'll be useless post-lunch.


You get an animated email about some super fun company function occurring this weekend. BBQ and corn hole with people I see 40+ hours a week?! How about no.


You see the office suck-up knock on your boss's door to wish them a wonderful weekend! Ugh, gag.


But, you don't care because it's finally 5 p.m. and you're half way out the door before anyone can say "See you Monday!"


Congrats on another week down, friends! Spend your two days off wisely because Monday will come around before you know it. Oh, and always remember the light at the end of the tunnel (Friday, I am referring to Friday).

I am going to a rhyme without reason date function and I have looked at so many different rhyming words and I figured there need to be a new list of words. At these functions, there are usually at least two rockers and boxers and an umpteenth amount of dogs and frogs. I have come up with a list of creative and unique ideas for these functions.

If you like what you see, get a shopping cart going with these costumes.

Epic Creation Myths: Norse Origins Unveiled

What happened in the beginning, and how the heavens were set in motion.

The Norse Creation Myth

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.

8tracks radio

We all scroll through the radio stations in the car every once in a while, whether its because we lost signal to our favorite one or we are just bored with the same ol' songs every day. You know when you're going through and you hear a song where you're just like "I forgot this existed!" and before you know it, you're singing every word? Yeah, me too. Like, 95% of the time. If you're like me and LOVE some good throwback music, here's a list of songs from every genre that have gotten lost in time, but never truly forgotten.
