It’s after 5:00AM CDT and I can’t understand why there’s not already an MMP!
Whee!
I’m getting ready to go to work of course, and will get coffee there. But I want it NOW!
Last week’s thread: http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=16689144#post16689144
First!
Now that the juvenilities are out of the way… Good Mornin’ Y’all! Up and Caffienatin’. YAWN 'Tis 71 Amurrkin out with a predicted high of 82 for the day and sunny. Fall weather in south Jawja!
Ok that’s all I got for now. I need more caffiene and to feed rumbly tummy. Then, alas and alack, irk purtification must commence.
Thanks for startin’ us off Baker!
Happy Moanday Y’all!
I’ve never posted to an MMP.
Meh, doesn’t feel any different.
Third! Thanks for starting off, Baker, I’m not sure I could wait until rosie decided to get up…
It’s a cool, cloudy and drizzly start to the week over here, a big difference from yesterday’s brilliant sunshine. It is also Welcome Week at the uni so we have all our bright shiny new students here today. On top of that, my successor has started today too, so I am updating her on what she needs to do as well as helping her get sorted out with an ID card and all that technical stuff. We are sort of sharing the computer as well so that might turn out to be interesting, the IT guys are coming up later to fix her log-ins and suchlike, so I might be moving down the corridor to the main undergrad office as there’s a spare computer there I could use. Who knows? It could just be musical chairs this week. I’m still booked for this week and next, although I don’t really know what I’m supposed to be showing her. No doubt someone will come along to tell me that later.
Fourth!
Swampy, you’re a dude. Ain’t no way the juvenilities are ever out of the way. 
Fifth and a propery Moanday blurf to top it off!
Welcome! What if we call you Freddy, would you feel better?
Blurf.
Horrendously overslept- only just woke up, and it’s nearly 1!
I dunno why, I wasn’t that tired last night, but the good thing about working weekends is that moanday is the new sattidy for me, so I can sleep all I want. I’ll be heading off camping shortly, with any luck, once the coffee kicks in enough for me to pack.
Jeez, y’all are an impatient bunch!
Happy Moonday!
It’s a chilly 56 degrees and breezy this morning. The projected high is 69.
Isn’t it funny how 56 degrees in September is chilly but 56 degrees in March is balmy?
Baker better you than me - to start the thread that is.
I don’t know what happened to the girl next door. She asked me to watch the dogs and cat Saturday and Sunday am as she was having dental work done. I’m still watching the dogs and cat, and haven’t been able to get in touch with her at all.
Kind of screwed me up last night as I had other plans I had to cancel where if I had known ahead of time I could have rearranged things instead of cancelling something. I’ve tried calling, texting and email and no answer.
So I need to go care for the beasties and Sah-son wants to go grocery shopping.
The big question now is if I can get into the bathroom or if the HFH is in there and letting her dogs have run of the house while she is
Then it will be irk irk irk, I need a few BIG paychecks because I want my income to be over what it needs to be.
Blurf. I need to get ready to go to my dentist appointment. I leave you with this video of a husky having entirely too much of a good time.
This week MUST be an improvement over last week. It cannot possibly, short of Armageddon, be any worse.
Mine isn’t for another two hours, but we can be dentist buddies today.
Had an awesome weekend in Salem with friends. We actually spent most of the time just talking at the hotel–as a group we had a lot of issues to work out, and we hadn’t had a chance to sit down and talk to each other without distraction in literally years. It was a great time, and even though the ride home yesterday was kind of torturous, the weekend was totally successful.
So now it’s laundry, and then dentist, and then nap until the novocaine wears off.
Because why?
Because the Cute One keeps civilized hours, that is why.
:rolleyes:
I’m up and cleaned up and ready to walk out the door. Well I have to put clothes on first, but I’m letting myself air dry because it’s easier to get dressed when your clothes aren’t sticking to you.
I’m hungry too but I need to get the beasties fed.
I am loving the cool breeze coming in my window
I’m in class. Shh! Trying not to get caught.
Not today, it seems. My appointment got cancelled–the doctor was sick. Here’s hoping for better luck on my eye appointment tomorrow!
I didn’t waste the trip. I got some worms for my bin (finally) and got the correct light bulb for my car. I’ll have Maintenance M show me where that one goes between irk and the appointment tomorrow. I didn’t see where the low-light was when we were fussing with the high beams last week.
Home from feeding the beasties
Stopped at the store just for a few things since tomorrow is pizza day
I think I will take a short nap since I had weird ass dreams again last night, I was part of a scientific expedition studying yetis, and I can’t out run a hungry yeti.
Just checking in, I hope all y’all have a great week.
Haven’t properly engaged with the day, yet. But I’ve been organizing and sorting things to be donated or thrown away for a few weeks, now. And yesterday, I was able to re-arrange my bedroom into a much more functional configuration because of that. It was an uplifting thing to see first thing in the morning.
I also have all of the Guilt List things boxed and into one set of shelves. I can pick away at it off and on without worrying that there’s something else somewhere else that I also still need to deal with.
