Do you recall that post where I went on and on about how nice it was to have an actual Wall, Facebook style, in our office? Well, those days are long gone.
Due to a shortage of the very crucial dry erase speech bubbles, a whole lot of drama unfolded here on the fifth floor yesterday afternoon. Joe allegedly stole Mary's speech bubble in order to tell everyone in the office (read: brag) about his new iPhone. Mary furiously noted and complained about this alleged theft in the hallway, where several other Actual Sizers overheard. Mary and James then retaliated by writing disparaging comments on various other speech bubbles.
In any case, it feels a little dicey to be working in my office right now...it's really close to the Wall, and I'm not prepared to be in a fistfight today.

Here at the Actual Size office, we appreciate the modern phenomenon of social networking. But you know what we dig even more?
Our version of the Wall: a so-called "analog Facebook" that features the beautiful, shining faces (err, cartoon versions, that is) of the Actual Sizers as well as speech bubbles so that we always know what's on everyones' minds. Plus, the dry erase markers offer a way for us to try out new looks (sunglasses, mustaches, and more). Not everyone has made it onto the Wall yet, but those who haven't are holding out hope or, if they're like Steve, finding creative ways to get there.
Does anyone else actually have a real (as opposed to virtual) Facebook Wall? Do you wish you did? (Yeah. Admit it. You do. You're completely jealous.)
