1 And hail. Hail! In freakin’ March!
2 Still agog at hail…
3 Eh, check back later…(Hail!)
4 (Edit - Odd, my time is still off and I should have my settings right.)
A list of assorted things:
[ul]
[li]This year, the best thing about the local renaissance festival was the Mud Show. Beowulf performed in a mud pit + puns + visual gags = hillarious[/li][li]Also at the renaissance festival, the theme for that week was “Irish week”. This meant that there were a handful of leprechauns wandering about.[/li][li]Speaking of leprechauns: one of the actor-leprechauns “hit on me” from on top of the wall as I was walking through the entrance of the faire. “My lady, for your own safety, would you kindly walk very, very slowly through the entrance?” ::laughs:: It never gets old. [/li][li]I read three books this weekend. [/li][li]I have about three months until I move in with my fiance.[/li][li]No matter how well I clean my clothes and bedding, there will still be dog hairs from the dog who doesn’t live with me. I am continually amazed at how well her fur sticks to everything. (The dog belongs to me and my fiance, but lives with him currently.)[/li][li]Since I mentioned the dog, here are some photos. Her favorite toy is a stuffed ghost.[/li][li]I’ve been very tempted to get a haircut that isn’t flattering. I know that I would look bad with hair that short right now, but it is tempting nonetheless. I think the hot weather is what’s tempting me.[/li][/ul]
USO, for Unidentified Sweeping Object. A friend of mine calls his the OBNI, Objeto Barriente No Identificado (OVNI, Objeto Volante No Identificado, is UFO). His bro was in the Yu Es of Ei working last year, got one for his apartment and came home with what looked like half a crate for close relatives. Barriente isn’t really a word in the dictionary but it sounds more like volante than barredor does.
I’m supposed to spend next weekend in Lucerne with a Foodies Sect That’s Officially Something Else but can’t promise I’d have time to upload pics by Monday. I do hope to have pics, I’ve signed up for a town visit and a castle. So, list of questions:
Do we have anybody for two mondays from now?
That’s, uh… I can’t count… the 26th?
Why does this place not have calendars?
Why does this company not have the templates for word calendars?
Is it OK to use some normal paragraphs so long as we have a list?
Things I like about Mondays:
[ol]
[li]It’s a full day, so I get paid more[/li][li]Traffic is lighter[/li][li]The cute $tarbucks guy is working the morning shift[/li][li]The phones are busier[/li][/ol]
Things I hate about Mondays:[ol]
[li]The phones are busier with stupid New Yorkers complaining about not knowing how to place orders online and why aren’t we open 24/7 so they can place their stupid $5 orders and then complain that the shipping costs more than the actual products and why don’t we give them a discount because they place $30 worth of orders at least once every 4 years and what color is the blue tissue and…kill me now?[/li][li]I have to work[/li][li]The kids never want to get out of bed…neither do I[/li][li]Everyone wants to know why my face is all bashed up – the old women with whom I work do not know what a mosh pit is[/li][li]It’s Monday[/li][/ol]
My pun, which coincidentally is a truth: My ex used to be a baker, he needed the dough
Good choice!!! It’ll work hard, go into the corners and handle any rough stuff in it’s way.
I’d name mine Ryan Smyth, but we traded him to the dang Islanders and the Oilers haven’t won a game since. [sub]sniff**sob[/sub] So close last year - and now not even in the playoffs.
I liked the USO idea… hmmmm maybe I’ll call it this.
Thanks dogbutler and I’m pulling for the Canes to make it in. Good luck. (And GO HEELS!)
When I think of Roombas I think of this comic strip. nashiitashii, I agree about haircuts. There’s something about spring/summer than makes the little voice in my head speak up consistently, even though I know I can’t do short hair. Silly voice.
Things I Did Last Week When I Should Have Been Posting To the MMP:
Made coffee.
Ran errands for a still-sick Roomie.
Took aforementioned Roomie to the doctor.
Watched seven complete full-season box sets while helping Roomie convalesce. (We went on a total CSI kick. Don’t ask. And I’m about ready to kill Roomie because I suddenly really care about Veronica Mars’ life. But hey–by halfway through the first season I had everything right except the actual identity of the killer. I sure knew who it wasn’t, though. :))
Napped.
Things I Have To Do Today:
Job hunt.
Pay phone bill.
Renew car registration.
Catch up on the MMP.
Take Roomie to the doctor again.
Buy garbage bags and cat litter.
Call the HR department at my old job and tell them for the third time that I would like some sort of proof that they have, in fact, enrolled me in COBRA and I’m not just sending them a check every month for no reason.
Good afternoon, all! I actually got a chance to check in with the MMP before Tuesday! Of course I’m not sure if I’ll be back, but I’ll try. Remember, y’all* did say I could come in without following everyone’s stories. Cause I may not be able to.
Top 3 Things my boss did last week:
Nothing.
Nothing.
More nothing,
Ok, not a very good list.
Grocery list (stuff we forgot on Friday’s trip):
Buttermilk. Actually, we didn’t forget this. We ran out. I got my SO into drinking this, watered down with seltzer, and we went through two jugs. I know it sounds gross, and you should have seen the SO - he’d take a sip, make a face, then take another, He hated it but he loved it.
Paper plates.
Light bulbs.
I trust that’s enough listing for the moment? If I come up with anymore I’ll let you know.
Right now, my hair is pretty, but I’m getting tired of having layered hair. It has the worst of both worlds going on right now, as I can’t braid my hair without bits poking out, and if it gets too hot, it has to be pulled back or piled on top of my head to be effective. Even better is when I don’t put the ponytail high enough, because then I get hairs that fall out and pat-pat my face all day. Gah!
