I like helium

I love the way it makes me feel... all high in the head, in the voice.
A couple of the photographers and I were snacking on helium balloons at the Hallowe'en party today. Then someone from H.R. (human resources) came over and said *snooty voice* "can you please not do that."

We never got an explanation or a reason why we were told to stop. So we didn't. I just looked at her and said, in my chipmunk voice, "no".

We all laughed at that. H.R. got upset and stomped off. I'm up for review soon too. Guess I won't be getting that raise. Oh well, we had fun.

Just tell her it was peer pressure.

*laugh*
Don't you just love snarking at authority?
I'm really, really surprised that I haven't been fired from a couple of jobs just because I'm a mouthy pain in the arse.
