[10:48] jensymms: ass baby!
[10:48] jensymms: hilarious
[10:49] bossman: what?
[10:49] jensymms: sorry
[10:49] jensymms: wrong window
[10:49] jensymms: :-\
[10:49] jensymms: awkward
[10:49] bossman: seemed weird?
[10:50] jensymms: my husband
[10:50] jensymms: he is wierd
[10:50] jensymms: and i guess, so am i
[10:50] bossman: I'm not even going to try to figure out what "ass baby!" means
[10:51] bossman: Unless you're talking about PayPal
[10:51] jensymms: hehehe
[10:52] jensymms: he listens to Howard Stern, it was from a letter that someone on the show wrote, apologizing for being so drunk that he missed a friends wedding
[10:52] jensymms: he called himself that
[10:53] bossman: got it.
[10:53] jensymms: anywho
[10:53] jensymms: on to pretending that never happened
[10:53] bossman: I've never heard wedding and drunk in the same sentence.
[10:54] bossman: ok, a few times
[10:54] bossman: almost always
[10:56] jensymms: usually though, you get drunk at the wedding
[10:57] jensymms: he got drunk on friday night , went to bed at 7AM Saturday and woke up at 5Pm Sunday
[10:57] jensymms: thats excessive
[10:58] bossman: That's almost dead.
[10:59] jensymms: yeah
[10:59] jensymms: he is a mess
[10:59] bossman: Was that Stern?
[10:59] bossman: or a caller?
[11:01] jensymms: its a co worker of his
[11:01] jensymms: here is the letter
[11:02] jensymms: http://www.howardstern.com/archive.hs?h=1126
[11:06] bossman: I like the phrase "pig filled with whisky and excedrin pm"
[11:06] jensymms: yeah
[11:07] jensymms: so now you see why I said "ass baby!, hilarious!"

That was very close to one of the most awkward moments of my life, second only to the time when my Dad caught Larry and I in the shower and I denied the whole thing. Ah, the memories! However, this experiment only further proves how awesome my job is.

(Note: my boss does not use the screen name bossman. It is actually assbaby, which, now that I think about it, is rather ironic.)
