Sorry Mully. Somebody had to do it, right? At least it is someone who loves you :wink:

I had a bad day yesterday, just felt as low as hell for no discernible reason. Today, woke at 4-30 which is bad, i’ll be cranky later, but, got offered a job in Florida! Probably won’t go though, too hot down there for me…i’m used to 10 degrees C +/- 10 C…carnaval this saturday, woohoo.

I wouldn’t expect any less of you Coldfire.

I hide my shame.

Oh, nice recovery, Cold.

Somehow, Michelle, I think your maggots were a bit more squidgy than I want.

Thank you, TU. I’ll try that.

Man, I’m starting to like this crackwise person.

Started my new job yesterday. The people seem really cool, the computer is a mess tho. I mean, HOW many friggen font folders does it take to get you thru the day at work?? I spent my whole first day…minus the two hour lunch that they took me to…cleaning up the multitude of files that a MacIntosh allows you to just place anywhere! (With an occasional sneak peek at the board coz I miss you guys so!)


I really try to be good but it just isn’t in my nature!

Congratulations Dewaholic!

Gr8Kat, you roooock!

I feel your pain, CanadianSuebaby.

neuro, you’re weird.

Smick, I’m stealing “Dine. Anks thor fasking.” for my next sig line. 'Kay?

Good morning and big love to the Millions that be Teemin’ and Stuff.

Harp Lager Nutty??

you get sick of it after a while…

If you want a nice irish Drink, there’s Guiness (obviously)
and an irish Cider called Bulmers… th finest in the world.

mundane stuff:

I make the worlds finest instant coffee,
I got made Permanent in Work 2 weeks ago,
Am planning on going away for the Summer, but know not where.

I also want to enter Coldfire’s world for a day, and shall now proceed to tell all the customers I deal with for the rest of the week that they are having computer problems because of Evil Bi-sexual Dwarfs.
And they’d probably believe me.

Psssst. Election day is in November.

:wink:

Well, just got back from my sons’ physical exams. The oldest one failed his eye exam, which means a trip to the optometrist sometime this week. Also, their doctor won’t put them on Ritalin until I get them evaluated by a licensed psychologist or psychiatrist first, which means now I have to find a shrink that will take our insurance.

It’s snowing again. It has snowed pretty much every day this week, except it really doesn’t stick, so we only actually have maybe an inch of snow on the ground from the whole week’s worth of snowing.

I was doing real good on my diet until Sunday, when I pretty much blew my diet on junk food. Today I am forcing myself to get back on track. I’m telling you though, I am getting real sick of Slimfast.

Hey Mull, not to suck up, but I know what a great accomplishment your 10-for-10 green-light morning is.

Long ago when I was still in college, I interned for a semester at CNN’s Detroit bureau. I took Ford Road from Westland for a goodly part of the way. If you hit one red light, you’re hittin’ 'em all.

Remember that vacation I was so excited about 15 or 20 posts up? I just realized the jet I’m flying on is the same kind that just crashed off L.A.

Nahhh… I’m still excited.

Milo, I believe everyone should experience the unfettered joy of driving somewhere and hitting the true nirvana of non-stoppage.

Congratulations my green lighted brother.


Oh boy, my first official case of sig line writer’s block.

Just remembered. I’m teaching a class on painting miniatures tonight! Well, it’s not a really big class, it’s 8 people tops. And I know most of them. And it’s part of my PT job. And it’s for the next 4 weeks.

But still, I’m teaching, dammit!

Mundane… let’s see…

  1. I think I might be allergic to this new deodorant. My armpits have both been itchy these last couple of days.

  2. The mailman at work always brings a nice bundle of crap all tidied up with a couple of rubber bands. I am making a rubber band ball now. So far, it’s only about 2 inches in diameter.

  3. My cat actually seems to like her new hairball treatment, cleverly disguised as a kitty treat.

  4. I am enjoying a nice apple-cranberry juice cocktail right now. Mmm-mmm good!

  5. Saw Beck in concert last night. Damn, he is one funny little man. Good show.

Can I get a little shameless pity? Last night, I fell down went BOOM! I fell over backwards and hit my neck and shoulders on the bottom shelf of the stand the TV sits on. Today they’re very tender and probably bruised (I can’t see from here). Owee :frowning:

Mercifully, my neck and shoulders bore the brunt of the fall and my head was spared. I don’t know how many more knocks the old melon can take before I actually sustain some serious damage (some might argue that we’ve already passed that point).

Gr8, Ouch! Glad you’re okay.

Here’s my mundanities:

  1. My boss is a pisser. See thread entitled “My psycho boss”. I have now found out that he’s trying to get rid of me…what a nut.
  2. I have my Conversation Spanish class tonight. Teacher is fun. I now know how to say “what time is it” and “the teacher is in front of the door”. Wow! Am I a language sponge or what? :stuck_out_tongue:
  3. Have already faxed out 3 resumes (see #1 above).

Need to start working on my RPG site, and world pages. Need to start buying figurines and paint them again. Cleaning of course, comes first, the living room in my apartment looks like a paper mill blew up in it. (Lots of software/hardware manuals.) Then the joys of buying a new car, am looking at the Taurus.

I got a raise!!! And depending on how the paycheck looks at the end of the month once the taxes are taken out, I may be able to move the hell out of this apartment!!!

Gr8kat: I feel your pain. No, literaly, I feel your pain. I was out having a cigarette last Wednesday (the day after the big snowstorm here around DC) when I suddenly noticed that my feet were above my head. Apparently, I had stepped upon a piece of ice, and did not notice it until the back of my head impacted with the driveway.

My personality didn’t get altered, nor did I come down with amnesia, so I have to say that blows to the head are wildly over-rated.

This is not a sig.

Congratulations Dewaholic! May those rosy colored glasses stay firmly in place!!

Mundanes:

  1. I discovered I actually LIKE yogurt!
  2. I bought a Metallica tape for just one song, and liked the rest of it…pretty much.
  3. My oldest son DJ got told by the ‘friend of a friend’ that she hated his guts…how could she possibly know?? He was depressed over the phone when I called him at college today…the mom job can be tough…especially when you can’t kiss their owwwies away anymore.
  4. The newspaper didn’t get delivered wet today!
