Up, caffeinated, off to work. **giggty** , wow. **Butters** ,check your User CP, and make sure you don’t have “hide all signatures” checked. ---

After I signed off last night, I got caught up in a NOVA about mathematics - it was really fascinating! Makes me wish I’d majored in math. Needless to say, I didn’t get to bed early. Nor did I sleep in, despite turning off the alarm yesterday because \*\*FCD \*\*is working from home. But I was nice, dammit - I closed the curtains (our bedroom window faces east) and locked the door so Taz couldn’t break in. Higgs has been fed and I’m having some me time before our day starts. \*\*tugig \*\*- DANG! And here I thought all you did was drive around with your dashcam on! 😉 \*\*rosie \*\*- I had the very same thought about a serial rapist of women. I swear, the older I get, the more radical a feminist I become. Some men out there are real jerks! I certainly encountered my share working in a male-dominated environment, but mostly I ignored it. Now it pisses me off!! And please note I didn’t say “all men” - I don’t like making such generalizations, even in jest. OK, deep cleansing breath… I think today’s the day I finally wash the throw pillows. So there’s some fun ahead. 😃 Oh, and it’s **FCD** ’s payday - woohoo!!! Now, if only one of these people answering the ad for the Harley will come look at it with cash in hand. Anyway, Happy Thursday!! ---

Got woken up at 1:45. It’s now 4:36, haven’t been able to sleep. This sucks. I have all Novas set to record, I hope it caught that mathematics episode. My major was Applied Mathematics, it sounds like it’ll be interesting. Happy Thursday, yo. ---

> [@Buttercup\_Smith](#): > > I am a full fledged paid member and I can’t see sigs. WTF? It could be that not everyone shows their sig all of the time.

> [@Bullitt](#): > > I have all Novas set to record, I hope it caught that mathematics episode. My major was Applied Mathematics, it sounds like it’ll be interesting. It made me wish I’d majored in Math instead of Engineering! 'Cause, yanno, math is more than balancing your checkbook! 😃 Seriously, it was a fascinating program. Back from McBreakfast, just because. That’s what old people do in Leonardtown - they get breakfast at McD’s and sit there eating and gossiping. \*\*FCD \*\*is in the basement working on the counter. I’ve got 5 throw pillows in the wash - with luck, the cat urine will go down the drain and a day in fresh air and sunshine will make them useable again! And the cat box is clean, so there’s that, too! Good times! ---

Happy Thorsday! It’s a sunny 57 degrees outside. It’s nice to be able to open the door to let the dog out and not be hit with a blast of frigid air. I have to pick up my meds today, hopefully the mess has been straightened out. wow **2gig** cool new duds - used to be **spaz** good to see you again **butters** ty **doggio** ---

Yeah, the sig comes in below the line if you elect to show it. I gotta say, I’m glad they don’t allow animated gifs in sigs here. I’ve visited boards where that is allowed and it makes me stabby!!! ---
