Here Come the Gnome Cows

Someone complained that I do not title my blogs often enough for their liking. So now my titles will contain a theme. The theme being a song I like with a few word substitutes that to me, at least, sound funny. Note: I will try my best to make the substitutional words at least semi-rhyme to enhance the humor. 
So here's the run-down. I hate Jackie... well that's pretty much it. Yesterday I went to Ben (the office manager) and asked if I could move to Dawn's desk when she vacates it. He said this would be no problem, causing me to rejoice and start drawing up my decoration schematics. About an hour later I'm overheard speaking to Steve about my plan's to put in a sky-light, when Jackie, with her pompous voice, chimes  in with: 

"Dawn's desk is already spoken for" 

"By who" I questioned

"By me" she replied 

Kindly enough I told her "Well I already cleared it with Ben " 

She then said "Well I already cleared it with Dawn" 

Let me explain something to you all Dawn in terms of our company is literally... NO-ONE. Next Friday is her last day and honestly has no authority in matters regarding the office especially after her departure.  So you can understand my response of ..

"Dawn? who's Dawn? I don't know any Dawn that gets to make those kind of decisions" 

"Well we were actually going to talk to Ben about it." was all she could say as if it was some sort of trump card. Like the guy who watches the lottery sees the winning numbers and then petitions on the basis that he "was going" to go buy a ticket with those numbers on it... I wonder if that's ever happened. 

Long story short it came down to a coin-toss, in which by the tone of this blog, I'm sure you can tell who won. NOT ME. Damn you stupid 50 cent piece. What does Ben do to rectify the wrong that has been done to me. Offer's me the empty corner cube that everyone has been begging for. But what can I say... us Mexicans stick together.

Ok, here's the shit, husband of mine:

I really, strongly hate this woman in ways that I don't understand, seeing as how I have never met her.

And, while I may be slightly less-than-awesome when it comes to music and involved trivia, I really don't know what your title is referencing.
