I will, although it will be a year from now until I graduate. Congratulations!
Long day, I’m actually still working, just taking a 5 minute break.
See y’all tomorrow.

LOL. Probably as horrible as a focus group. Lordy, save me if I ever have to do that again.
irked and texted with Hockey Lady:) while at work. more irk tomorrow.
Yay, Master Apes!!
Sorry I’m late - thinking of you and keeping you in my prayers, Ashes. Happy (belated) birthday to you too, Kanga.
We had turkey noodle soup today with cornbread, and it was just the thing to have; it was a chilly day today in NM, believe it or not. More seasonable I guess, not really cold. Over the weekend, I made an actual, honest-to-goodness pound cake. Ye gods, that thing was rich! It was also a lot of work, especially since I don’t have one of those stand-alone mixers, just a little hand one, that I just about wore out beating the batter! LOL I’m going to look for a less rich recipe, I think - that one was not only very rich, but very expensive to make. :eek:
Hope everyone is looking forward to tomorrow - it is Hump day, after all. 
Ah, it is tomorrow here already.
The only hump in sight is the one on my personal camel…
(what, you thought we drove around in cars here? It’s the fricking MIDDLE EAST!! ![]()
OK, not really. Unless there are camels that look like a Renault.)
Up, caffeinated, off to irk.
Good Mornin’ Y’all! Up and caffienatin’. YAWN 'Tis 52 Amurrkin out and foggy with a predicted high of 64 for the day which pretty much means the temp won’t feel any cooler or warmer all day.
Butters you from or livin’ in Jawja?
BBBobbio I don’t know whether to say congrats on findin’ Booger or so sorry you found Booger. 
Special1 you could name your camel Renault or name your Renault Camel. Either way you’d have both a camel and a Renault.
gt feel better. Glad the cough is goin’ way.
Ok, I need more caffiene and rumbly tummy is wantin’ to be fed. Then, alas and alack, irk purtification must commence.
Happy Hump Day Y’all!
Or I can call the [del]camel[/del] Renault “You Bastard!”
But then the car won’t know it I’m addressing it or some other idiot driver on the road.
At least there’s a chance it will become good at math, though ![]()
Good morning! I hate when I have to start working before I have breakfast! I made a mistake on modeling the alternator from hell, but luckily we caught it yesterday when I printed out a full-size picture of the proposed part we’re designing, and it didn’t quite fit over one terminal. So we re-measured, tweaked the drawings, and now it’s good to go. Later today, I get to talk to the guys who will build it - that’s a first for me.
Anyone else buying tickets for the power ball drawing today? I bought 5 last week and won $7 (net loss $3) so I’m going to take my winnings plus $3 more and get 5 more tickets. If I win the half a billion bucks, party is on me!
If I have to share the half a billion with someone else, it’ll be a smaller party.

Happy Wednesday!
Blurf.
I got nuthin, save for a cat I didn’t lose. 
I mentioned the lottery to OYKW and said we should buy a ticket or two. Then I forgot. Maybe I should go and do that. Or I might forget again. I’m all willy-nilly like that.
Special1 “You Bastard!” is the alternate name I use for both Twuck and 'Stang. 
Hey, I won the Powerball over the weekend! That is, one of my tickets had properly selected the Powerball number. I get $4 if I bother to claim it. Probably will, since that’s two picks…
Party at BBBobbios! He won enough for the big bag of Cheetos! ![]()
Morning, all!
I’m up and ready to leave the house in a few to do a last little bit of supply shopping for my shows. My mom is home and sleeping because she works tonight, so I figured it would be best to run errands early and come home and make noise later on when she’s awake.
Last night I made rings, cut off and smoothed spoon ends to make more rings, polished vases, and made business card holders. Today it will be more spoon rings, bracelets, pins, and zombies and other sculptures. That’s a HUGE amount for one day, but it has to be done. These are two of my biggest shows of the year and also the most expensive so I’ve got to have plenty of product ready to go.
Rosie’s sig to all!
Wednesday - the day I hate because I can never spell it right the first several thousand times I type it. Only goodness in Wednesday is that it is one day closer to Thursday (which I can spell) and Thursday is like my Friday (most weeks I work 4 10 hr days except when I have too much work then I work 4 10 hr days and however long I am needed on Friday but I really hope I dont have to do that this Friday because I am super tired and stressed but things are not working in my favor this week AT ALL so knowing my luck I will be working and that just sucks gasp pant)
Happy Hump Day y’all!
Although the way things are going with the SO there won’t be any of that around here.
Whopping 36 degrees outside. Gotta irk, walk hell pup, get my replacement phone, feed sah-kid early and take him to driver’s ed, irk some more, then pick him up… and check my powerball tickets.
I don’t play the lottery, so if my mom or brother ever win I will never hear the end of it, LOL
Oof. Work went crazy after I left yesterday. Someone let loose a virus on the network, and several of the servers hid all of their regular content and listed “folders” like SEXY and PORN. The so-called folders, were all executable files designed to transmit the virus. Network department is still sorting it out this morning. What a headache.
Very early this morning, little kitty Soot (short for Hatshepsut) decided to pick a fight with my feet. They had apparently offended her by sticking out of the covers. When I woke enough to realize what was going on, I kicked her off. Okay, not exactly kicked, as that implies an impact between her and my foot. More like launched. Of course, she decided this was ten times more fun than anything else in the world, and kept coming back for more. I finally had to sit up in bed and snarl loudly at her before she quit.
My only birthday disappointment was that the birthday fairies didn’t come over and clean my apartment. I have a friend arriving Friday night, and everything needs to be scrubbed. Where are the fairies? (Or do I need brownies?)
Someone on the SDMB who is far more eloquent than I described the lottery as, “A tax on people who are not good at math.”

Happy Wednesday everyone.
Nothing much new with me.
Congrats Sticky & April on your school success!
Happy birthday Pouka!
Nice to see life isn’t too rocky for most everyone else. For those who are having a rough patch I feel for you.
See ya in awhile.
