In five minutes I can leave work. I’m about 20 posts away from hitting the 500 mark.

And so then I says, “No way,” but she persists, so I says, “I just don’t bleedin’ think so,” and still she won’t back down, and so I get my back up and says, " Will you just let it alone already," but still she just keeps needlin’ me and goin’ on and on, wearin’ down my patience, and so I says, “I’m warnin’ you woman,” but she just laughs that accusing laugh and starts right in again, and she just won’t let it be, so I says, “Look, I’m about at the end of my rope here,” but she just laughs that hateful laugh again and finally I’ve had all I’m going to take and I go ahead and let her have her half of the covers back.

I got the new job I talked about a couple of weeks ago. I’ll be starting on the 28th, so I’m a short-timer where I work now. This is the one that will involve business travel all over the U.S. so I will have a chance to meet with Dopers all over soon! The fun thing about this is that my friend who recommended me for the job is going to turn 30 my first day there. Hehehe * * * …in a state so nonintuitive it can only be called weird… ---

I’m currently eating a chocolate cookie with chocolate chunks in it while drinking chocolate milk.
