Good Sport, Good Guy

The Sugar V, Hangin' Tough! 

I must say, the Sugar V is a good sport. I've played joke after joke on this poor bastard over the last few months and he still actually talks to me. Maybe he has pity for a fool like me, maybe it's just the candy dish on my desk. Regardless, he is a good sport and a great guy and this post is dedicated to him.

Before I left work yesterday for my four day weekend, I decorated his cubicle in "New Kids On The Block" pictures and memorabilia that I got off the internet. The picture above is the view from my office to his work area. You can see all the papers hanging all over, those are indeed photos of the boy band! I then proceeded (with some help) to autograph these photos as if the band themself autographed it thanking the Sugar V for his support of the band. It was quite fun to do.

This follows decorating his cubicle with "Neverland Ranch" photos, Saran wrapping his phone, hiding his jacket, switching his chairs, switching all the keys around on his keyboard, taking the rollerball out of his mouse, and various other fun stuff. He has gotten me back here and there and it makes work fun.

What can I say about the Sugar V? He is a great guy. He's the one who got me started on the blogging back in January. "Bored At The Beach" owes it all to him. The Sugar V has been a great friend the last six months or so, since I got to really know him. He is not a friend who bullshits you or says what you want to hear. He tells you things like they are, something/someone we all need in our lives. He is always there to offer a logical and thought provoking view of the world, of people, and of life. He has been there for me through some difficult dilemmas and has always listened and showcased a perspective on things that I may have not seen otherwise. He makes a very dull work environment fun and enjoyable. I am lucky to have gotten to know him. It's difficult to "make new friends" once you get to be about 30 or so. Everyone seems to have their own lives and agendas to deal with and most of the time people don't extend themselves the way he has. I declare today National SUGAR V DAY! Your friendship is appreciated. Thanks to the Sugar V, C-Mac is "Hangin' Tough" at a dull job. The Sugar V has "The Right Stuff" to make everyone's day a bit more enjoyable.
