C [exclaiming]: How is it 1.30?!
Andy [staring blankly]: What?
C: How is it 1.30 already?
Andy [making circles in the air with his finger]: Well... hand goes round, it all adds up.

i've bean expecting you...

It's been eerily quiet at Andyisms for almost a year now, but Andy's lunch today was too good not to share.

word of the day

On Friday ANGE takes a break from heavy metal and 80s pop anthems to close his eyes and groove to Missy Higgins.

CASSY: [bemused] You play the strangest selection of music over there…

KATHRYN: It’s an eclectic selection.

ANGE: Yeah, ecliptic! Put it on the board!

KATHRYN: Not ecliptic, eclectic! I’ll give you ecliptic…

ANGE: Oh. I got excited, I thought we were having an eclipse tonight...

homecoming

ANDY: Cass! You were here… and then you weren’t.

ANGE: We were worried sick.

ANDY: We thought some unfortunate accident had befallen you…

CASSY: You knew I was on a trip!

ANDY: We didn’t know!

ANGE: How would we know?

ANDY: We thought you were missing…

ANGE: [snidely] That’s OK, you go feed the dolphins…

ANDY: Go take pictures of your feet in the sunset.

ANGE: Don’t tell us anything…

ANDY: We’ll eat out of a CAN, and you can eat things that have been artistically arranged on oversized white plates.

CHERI: [to Cassy] I think they’re mad.

CASSY: Maybe a little bit...

fairytale ending

After many weeks kicking aimlessly around the office, it looks as if the lonely size 13 running shoes have finally found an owner.

CASSY: You got someone? Cinderella has been found?

ANGE: Nah, they're too small, but he's gonna take 'em anyway. It's not a Cinderella story, more of a Pinocchio story…

glory days

ANDY is reliving the time he broke into a friend's dad's basement liquor collection and polished off most of a bottle of vintage single malt whisky.

ANDY: ...so I fell asleep in this thorn bush, right? And I woke up and knew I was going to throw up and I was lookin' around wondering where to do it–

CASSY: You were in a thorn bush, why didn't you just throw up there?

ANDY: 'Cos I was in a thorn bush, man!

MIA

"What happened Andy?"
"The passion's not there, the flame has gone out and the desire is fleeting..."
