Guest MMP: I got a rock

Now I’m curious.

I know scout got her donuts, but I’m still in the dark about Bumba and Lissla donut receiving status. Did you folks get 'em?

I suppose I could try again with FedEx or UPS or DHL or something.

Of course. Have you ever tried a cider donut?

You have other options. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again:
Mace. Hose her down with a little Mace. Works every time.

And swampy, my ads are all about virus protection. I wonder if it changes for each person?

[head poke]All is well.[/head poke]

If you take out the “well” and stick in a “well enough for now, but hopefully in a week or so things will be even better” that would be a better estimation of things. But that takes too long to type up. So I won’t.

I think you got some ‘splainin’ to do.

No, taters, she’s not nice. She’s nosy and loud. And you probably got stuck with her because somebody else couldn’t take her anymore. Any way you can talk to your boss about the “hostile environment” she’s creating?

swampy, where are these google ads wherefrom you speak, if I may be so ignoramously enquiring?

We had a humongous thunderstorm last night…just as I was getting ready to cook on my new cooktop for the very first time. The power went out. I called “Progress Energy” and the recording said I’d be sitting in the dark until 9:30. :mad: So I had to use my burner on my gas grill to cook. We sat in the dark and watched our battree TV. I got a tad toasted so went to bed. The power didn’t come back on til 11:30. Progress Energy is a big fat liar!

The Jesus Peep is scarin’ me!

Tupug

It looks like they keep changing. A minute ago it was all about recovery sites. Now it’s software and virus protection.

We should talk about sex toys. That’d get us some good ads. Or 'roids. Or terminal acne.

Well, Rue, I’m glad to hear you are, well, so to speak, well.

(did I just type that?)

I know it is awfully late to the MMP pile on, but I’d like to say that my shooting team, that is the 2nd shooting team at our German American club, took home a trophy this weekend.

Mr. Ujest’s shooting team, y’know, the better shots and 1st team, did not. (The other team was shootin’ 100’s like it was nothing.

We won by the pure joy of one of the other teams shooters got confused on the 5 targets and ended up shooting three into one of them.

YAY for confused people!
Mr. Ujest beat my total score by one point. I got a 96.

And I have never done 5 targets on one sheet while sitting before.

Carry on.

Rue glad to things are going relatively ok.

Shirley UJest what kind of targets? Paper ones or maybe just random people who happen to be walking by? Either way’d be cool by me as long as I don’t happen to be one of the random people. I’m much too nice to shoot at. I wonder what the adbot thingy will do with this.

I’m thinking since this is the MMP and we carry on about just anything at all, we’ll always get random ads. Just kinda adds to the ambiance of the place. :smiley:

Lissla, I know it’s bad (I’ve got a pretty good idea of what happens), but is the rest of the book good? :slight_smile: I honestly don’t care so much about Bree, but I’m sure I’ll find the American history parts fascinating, once I get around to reading it.

Last night I did absolutely nothing I was supposed to, except watch The Amazing Race. No dishes, no vacuuming, nothing. And I don’t feel a bit guilty.

I participated in the White Elephant exchange and I wanted you all to know that I got a package from FairyChatMom! Aren’t you all jealous? Lots of stuff, but the best was:
A ceramic piece FCM made last spring. THAT’S RIGHT, HER OWN CREATION!!!

It’s quite lovely. Nyah, nyah.

She once gave me a vibrating pig. So there!

Nevermind…I found out from the other thread. Can’t wait to see what **vibrating pig ** comes up with.

Durnit, rue, ya got us all in a tizzy.

Sorry, Taters. I’d have snapped a long time ago–it would take more than a stiff drink to recover from that. It’s wrong for her to be looking at what’s on your computer. I think you need to have a little talk with HR, so they can educate her about how to behave in the office.

My office mate has been driving me bonkers today, but Friday’s my last day, so that helps, a little. Sometimes when she’s on the phone, she talks really, really loud. It gives me a headache. And she’s a really loud swallower. She sounds like a horse taking a swig of soda.

I wonder what Google will think about vibrating GOATS!!! Vibrating pigs and vibrating goats!!

I think I still have it locked in to donuts and shipping companies.

I bought a bag of Circus Peanuts this morning when I stopped at the store on the way to work. For some reason there was a display of 'em. ACBG told me that he believes that’s the single weirdest thing I’ve done in all the time we’ve been together. I haven’t opened 'em yet. I’m saving ‘em for dessert after lunch. I need to decide what I want for lunch. For some reason chicken strips and french fries from Zaxby’s sounds good. I also have a hankerin’ for meat loaf.

No, I get kitchen appliances & gas grills.

I have a cupcake book with some unique recipes and decorating techniques. I’d bet that you’d like the recipe for the heart cupcakes. They’re not the “valentine” hearts, they are anatomical hearts with blue and red frosting, veins and arteries showing, and when you bite into them they have a raspberry jam filling so that it oozes out like somewhat lumpy blood. I haven’t tried the recipe yet but they sound delicious.

I got a new cell phone last night! It’s my new-every-two phone from Verizon. It’s so much cooler than my old phone. I’m so excited.

My excitement’s tempered by stoopid work though. The big boss decided to change the way we do some of our research, but DIDN’T TELL ME. I’M the one who does this research, I’m the one who’s going to be affected if we do it quarterly instead of semi-annually, but “Gee, it’s not important to tell taxi that.” Argh! I found out about it from the IT guy (with whom I’m actually getting along now) who came to ask me about changing some of the database fields to get it ready for the changes. They didn’t ask me to be involved in planning and didn’t inform me of the changes. Yeah, I’m well and truly pissed off right now.
