getting closer to fish fry friday

at work there is a group of 4-5 of us who have this joke about fish fry fridays. there's this lady in our office who throws around the phrase that she's "got bigger fish to fry" than whatever issue we or someone else might be trying to get her to help with. well she basically works 4 10's and isn't in the office on fridays. we look forward to fridays b/c she is grumpy and bossy and we know we can cut up and have fun without being glared at when she's not around.

i can't remember who started it, but one time one of us sent an email out asking who was bringing the hushpuppies, coleslaw, tartar sauce, etc. then we started joking about who was going to keep the grease hot. and when the "fish fry" lady in our office is stomping around mad about something or at someone, we talk about the grease splattering up cause it is turned it up too high and someone wasn't watching it close enough. i don't think she's caught on to what we're saying. we try not to say anything around her b/c it's our own inside joke. one day she said "bigger fish to fry" in front of all of us and i couldn't look at anyone in the group b/c i knew i was going to bust out laughing. i just stared at the floor and bit the inside of my mouth to keep from laughing in her face. it was hilarious!

the other funny thing is we found out that cracker barrel has fish fry fridays!!!

kisses....
