K adjusted his tie and looked at his blackberry.
"Ugh! The day's shot," he said.
"Why? What do you have?" I asked.
"A board meeting from 9:00 - 12:30 and excel training from 1:00 - 5:00."
"Excel training? What are they going to teach you that you don't already know?"
"I'm going to become... IT'S MASTAH!" he said, assuming the crane pose.
[This pose was followed up with a lot of "HOY-YA!" noises and karate kicks.]
[He's lucky I had a crush on Ralph Macchio in 8th grade.]
When he got home from work, I asked how the training went.
"It was great!" he said. "Later I'll show you what I learned about pivot tables."
[Be still my beating heart.]

Pivot tables, how romantic.
This conversation could absolutely have happened at my house. Have fun with the pivot tables!
Wow, I wish I could try pivot tables with my wife. They say you just haven't lived till then ;-)
This could have happened in the reverse, as I am the one always talking about pivot tables. My poor husband wouldn't know a pivot table if I showed it to him. Which I have. More than once and with unmatched enthusiasm.
You are a charming pair of geeks.
I've never understood pivot tables.
My husband's PowerPoint slides could beat up your husband's pivot tables.
Ok, I was just kidding. I like your blog.
I'm getting all excited just thinking about what he can now do with his pivot tables.
Sort and filter on...sort and filter off. sort and filter on...sort and filter off.
Sweep the leg.
Pivot table. I want to get me one of those kind of tables!
Hey, what happened to your profile picture! It disappeared!
Ah K sure knows how to keep the love alive ;-) Try to show some interest btw I can't do the pivot table either. Vic keeps threatening to teach me but is not impressed by my total lack of iinterest! Love, GSeattle
What are pivot tables, some kinky adjustable bed toy?
I am so turned on I don't know WHAT I am going to do...
word verification is fluctive... hmmm
Excel training...kill me now.
I am jealous of his pivot table expertise though. I am like the lowest level belt there is when it comes to Excel. Ugh.
Hey, how are you doing? Hope all is well.
oh Daniel-san had a serious impact on my puberty years. Little did I know he was like 45 already. JEEEZ!
Tell hubby thank you for making me laugh out loud(scared the birds too)
I would do the crane pose's at pivot tables too. LOL
The kids and I recently watched ALL FOUR of the Karate Kid movies. In a row. It was AWESOME!! I now have a crush on Pat Morita.
LOL, that's funny!
But, ugghh pivot tables. I was recently thrown into them and I'm not enjoying it because I have NOT had any training.
Everything I've learned about Excel I've learned by playing around with it. So, I currently hate them. I have no time to really learn them, and no training on them... it is taking too much time that I don't have to figure them out.
I LOVE Pivot Tables. They're like magic.
