A Perfect Sunday - An Early MMP

Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share
241

Afternoon, all. I was such a good girl last night you wouldn’t believe – worked slowly but steadily all night, got the stuff done and didn’t burn myself out in the process, and got to bed at 8:30 this morning. :dubious: Even for a confirmed night owl like me, this is ridiculous. Needless to say, I’m not exactly operating at my best right now.

Lout, several friends of mine in various areas of SoCal who are also shut up in their house with bored pets because of smoke have recommended the use of a humidifier to help everyone breathe more easily. Apparently it’s very helpful, just FYI if you’re not doing it already.

Other than a big <yawn>, I got nuthin’ else right now. Back to zoning out.

242

When did you change your user name and why (if I may ask)? (or did I miss the explanatory post)

243

oops

244

Yeah! Ditto, I mean.

I confuse easily.

245

Harumph. Do I go out for drinks with this wholesaler in a few minutes or do I be good and stay at work?

Decisions, decisions…

246

Short explanation: I was tired of the old name, and it didn’t fit anymore. So I picked The Blue-Sighted Shadow, which is from an obscure fantasy novel, The Shadows of Aggar.

I was going to post something last night before the change, but my internet connection was down.

I changed my sig, but I guess it’s not showing?

247

So what’s your new nick gonna be? Hmmm…

And do we get to reindoctrinate you to the MMP? :smiley:

248

You know, I’m not keen on going to work. I will practice deep breathing and possibly pushing-down-stairs movements to calm myself.

I will also try to remember that there are people whom I probably irritate unbearably, and who have to do deep breathing in order to spend time with me. It’s not totally his fault he drives me screaming up the wall.
Well, the whining is his fault. So much for being charitable.

I made chocolate cookies. Anyone want one?

249

I suggest Shadow

250

Cookies? ears perk up

251

OOOOOOOOOOOOH! Shadow… lovin’ it MBG!

I’m awake! As of about forty-five minutes ago. Nice sleep for me. Feelin’ much better today. YAY!!!

Lout stay safe, ok? That’s some skeeeeeeery stuff goin’ on in SoCal. Wonder how Scout is doin’? Maybe she’ll check in. Drought stuff is serious. Jawja is (as well is a lot of the southeast) goin’ through one now. Hope it doesn’t get that serious.

OK, and now, yays, boos, awwwws, as needed.

Soon Ima gone light the grill cause tonight’s supper is cheese burgers, no bacon cause I don’t have any burly butcher bacon right now. I need to remedy that but as of late I ain’t had the chance to go get any. However, the cheese burgers and fries shall be good even if they are frozen fried N.O.T.. I got fresh lettuce and maters so that should make up for that.

LiLi if’n you do push idiot co-worker down the stairs, we need pics.

BBBobbio yay that VWife will be in rehab not far away. If she slaps idiot Physical Terrorist, we need pics of that, too.

For somebody who said he’d be scarce this next couple of weeks, I am postin’ a lot. :smiley: Turns out life ain’t as bad as I thought it’d be. Though, tomorrow I have a dentist appt. at nine A.M. so no mornin’ post for me tomorrow.

Oh, and tonight’s outfit shall be purple pocket t and blue jeans. I picked it out before sleepy bye time today. Now y’all can rest easy. :smiley:

252

The purple pocket T is my favorite, Swampus. :wink:

I love Shadow, too! I mean, well, I love Shadow, too, but I love the nickname!

I’m outa here very, very soon… 5 or 10 minutes I hope.

ETA: Aw, crap! What color did you use, MBG?

253

Stoopid work…stoopid project…grumble grumble…

The dull spreadsheet project I have been working on for a few days which had a deadline of 5PM Friday now has a 5PM Thursday (Mountain Time). Which means instead of being able to review it tomorrow before I send it I now have 1 hour possibly 2 to get it finished - GAH!

So I am eating a toasted teacake with butter and jam as sustinance then I am back into it

:frowning:

254

Why, oh why can’t one of my friends from home figure out the time difference between Massachusetts and Minnesota? He ALWAYS calls me **before **5pm Central time. And I work until at least 5 so don’t want to talk to friends until after that. So since he’s in Eastern time, he should call me after 6 his time. Is that really all that hard to figure out? :dubious:

255

Well, I passed the pee test - and I didn’t even study! So all we’re waiting on now is the background check. Ya’ll remember - if anyone calls you asking about me - LIE!

I should find out something tomorrow or Monday. I’m not going to worry about it; there is hockey this weekend!

256

Hi everyone! I was wondering about scout, too. Ashes, Ashes, who doesn’t post here any more lives in the San Diego area, as well, IIRC. Hope everyone’s staying safe.

Glad to hear Drae is doing OK. Wish she’d stop by.

For some reason it just occurred to me that Telperien stopped by last week, said something mysterious, and didn’t stop back again. So, how’s it going this week, Tel? Are you still working at the accounting firm?

Yay on passing the pee test, SCL. ::appendages still crossed…getting kinda tired::

Hope you’ve finished your spreadsheet, mmmmmmmmmmmmms.

Love your new name, Shadow (That’s Navy, Rebo; I think it’s the same color MBG used).

Hope Roo is feeling better.

I like the solution of hurting Idiot CoWorker and siccing PT on him. I admire your ability to allow ICW to live, LiLi.

Tired…stayed up too late last night and still woke up too early.

What, the pie wasn’t enough, LOUNE?

Hi Al! Where are you thinking you’ll spend your vacation? Will you get to take most of the days together?

Had noodles with cheese already. Need to have something else for din din. Suggestions?

Back later.

257

Dull spreadsheet project is complete and sent off to the powers that be…only 15 mins late! Well I did a quick review and found some mistakes so they can all bite me when they move a deadline up 24 hours.

Tis after midnight here and I have to be up very early tomorrow to get Dad to his horsepistal check-up appointment. I’s tahred…night night

258

Just checkin’ in to say Nitey Nite!

Oh and the burgers were especially good. I got “appreciated” right nicely. :smiley:

Later Y’all!

259

Yep - Navy. But I also Bolded the Navy, to be fancy.

260

I know I’m tired and it’s getting late (for me), but WHO IS BLUE SIGHTED SHADOW?

Thank you.

Work was busy, busy, busy. Lots of nice people. One very bitchy recovery room nurse whom I may just have to smack down soon. Grrrrr.

Birthday cake is done et. Daughter is officially 18 (has been since 0927 this am), so I am officially old. <reaches for Metamucil and Grecian formula>

Good night, all.
