The Office

The Office is Back!

by Christina Gleason on September 25, 2008

Blogging while watching The Office. :-)

A cheese fountain. How great would that be for nachos?

My husband’s office did an office fit club competition between the web hosting division and the VOIP division. Last year, his team (VOIP) won. This year, the other team won by less than a pound. Pfft.

LOL @ Dwight hammering fruit into the vending machine.

Yay for Pam going to design school!

How can he not get the hint that Angela isn’t into this whole wedding thing? I know. Rhetorical question. Andy’s just totally clueless.

AND DOING IT WITH DWIGHT ON THE LOADING DOCK? That’s just wrong.

Pam doesn’t want a long engagement. Makes sense!

I totally forget how Holly fits into this whole thing, other than being with Michael. I realize she’s working for the company now, but was she just hired at the end of last season? How did she and Michael hook up? My memory sucks.

Eww… A cleanse diet. Ugh.

Michael talks to Jan’s pregnant belly and rubs her feet. Creepy.

Oh NOW I remember about Holly and the whole… mentally challenged thing with Stanley. BWAHAHA!

“That’s how I sleep at night.” So funny, Angela!

Michael introducing Pam to Ronnie. Then Pam talking to the camera via webcam. Ha!

And… Kelli hit the floor. THAT is why you don’t do those ridiculous cleansing diets with maple syrup and such. My stepmother-in-law was told to do one of those by one of her alternative practitioners… she quit it on Day 2 because it was destroying her body.

Just in the right place at the right time. You could say that, Phyllis!

What is with Michael’s ridiculous goatee?

Angela needs to just tell him the wedding’s off instead of stringing him along.

They all look so… thrilled about their birthday party fruit platter. [/sarcasm] It went over well in my office when we had fruit for one of the team leader’s birthdays.

Love the four losers peeking in on the secret cake party.

She ate a tapeworm. Oh my God.

What is Ryan doing back? HAHAHAHAHA! He’s the receptionist! And… that’s what’s up with the goatee.

Kevin and Jim. On the list.

Randomly selecting people who need liposuction. So random. Nice there, Dwight.

Where is Dwight taking Phyllis? I doubt it’s a surefire sale.

Pam made friends!

Oh no… Dwight pushed Phyllis out of the car. And she’s calling David Wallace.

Jabba the Hutt. A pig. Elvis. The Sta-Puft Marshmallow Man. Yikes. Michael’s poor taste rears its ugly head again!

Pam found a stand in for Jim at school, but poor Jim is still stuck in the dysfunctional office environment.

“Probably my jugs.” *snarf*

I want to know how they plan on losing 8 pounds in the next few hours.

Here Comes Treble Class of ’96 is going to be the dealbreaker.

Angela is such a… skank. Sneaking off with Dwight whenever Andy talks wedding to her.

JIM PROPOSED! At a gas station! In the rain! SQUEE!

The Office Debacle

by Christina Gleason on May 21, 2008

Since there will be no LOST this week, I’ll use this opportunity to discuss last week’s season finale of The Office.

I was telling my husband that I would be surprised if Jim didn’t propose by the end of the episode. When he handed over the money for the fireworks and told the camera he was going to propose to Pam that night, I said, “Not surprised.”

But I was very surprised by the end!

I certainly never expected the other proposal. Then again, neither did Angela or anyone else! How he could be so totally clueless. “Sure” or “okay” are not the same as “yes.” You moron.

Jim… the look on his face when he realized his moment had been stolen. Putting the ring back in his pocket. It was absolutely horrifying to watch.

My heart was breaking for Pam. She was so upset. And I understood her disappointment. There was a day when I thought for sure that Tom (then boyfriend, now husband) was going to propose to me, and I was really disappointed when it didn’t happen. It did happen the following week, but man, it was a bit of a blow when it didn’t happen when I expected it to.

And Jan… pregnant? Yikes. That poor kid doesn’t have a chance.

Then there was the last bit. Phyllis was funny with her little monologue about getting high from party planning. (And she’s so much better at it than Angela!) She was probably the funniest person to find Dwight and Angela going at it in the office, just because she’s so non-sexual.
Pam and Jim say WHA...?
