I’m tahred! We moved a lot of stuff and dejunked a lot of stuff today. Plus, I cheated for lunch today so now I’m way full and sleepy. See, I was supposed to bring the leftover chicken pie for lunch, but I couldn’t stop thinking about the taco soup, so I brought me some taco soup instead. It was a biiiiiiiiiiig bowl. With cheese, black olives, spring onions, sour cream and corn chips to go with it. ACBG wanted to take some to work today but I said he had to take the leftover chicken pie cause the soup is for supper tonight. I’m a bad bear! Now I don’t want any soup tonight cause I’m soooooo full. I’m a really bad bear! Oh well, perhaps I shall confess and maybe I’ll be “punished.” 😃

**LiLi** your patron saint could be [St. Vitus](http://www.catholic-forum.com/saintS/saintv07.htm), patron saint of dancers. Plus he protects against dog bites.

I’m back. I had hot tea, and I’m not quite so grumpy. I’ll take a chocolate cinnamon bun, please, if all the calories are removed. I can’t lose any of this I-didn’t-gain-any-weight-over-Christmas momentum.

Why do you want a dark colored rabbit? I mean, they’re fluffy, but their calorie content doesn’t factor into it at all…

I did mention I was afraid to call Mom 'cos every time I do it, someone else has died?

An old classmate’s mother, yesterday…

Is January over yet?  
Queens of the Stone Age rings bells, but I know I don’t have any of their music and I’m on the phone with Mom right now so I can’t check it out.

[/QUOTE]  
Depends - is it for this year’s Valentine’s day or leftovers from 2006 or prior? I may be a chocoholic, but I have standards!

OK, so I’ve worked my way thru the thread. I hugged everyone in passing, just to be sure. You’re welcome.

Idiot Stupidhead just bothered me once today towards the end of the day. He wanted to know if I’d finished incorporating all the changes he’d asked for. I told him I did my best to make it make sense. In those words. Yeah, it was a dig. Assuming he doesn’t get another bug up his ass, I should be done with this project. And much as I’ve loved all that I’ve gotten to do with it, apart from dealing with him, I will refuse any assignment that brings me to his proximity.

I have an appointment of Feb 9 with one of my many matrix boss-types to discuss my next assignment. All he’ll tell me is that it’ll involve cross-training and it will be different from anything I’ve done so far. It’s gotta be better than dealing with Idiot Stupidhead!

Class tonight. I need to change into grubbies. Last class, I was too dressed up to get into clay. So tonight it’ll be sweats and an old T-shirt, plus I’m taking a towel. I know part of tonight’s work will involve making a multiple pinch-pot creation, I have a couple of ideas, so we’ll see how the execution goes. I can’t wait to see if Miss Prissy Fingernail Girl comes back. heh

And that’s my life up to the moment. Thrilling, n’est-ce pas?

Oh yeah - for all you knitters - Bernie is shedding like crazy - I’ve got enough dog hair here to knit another dog! Anyone interested? 😃

Nestle _Crunch?_ That’s not chocolate, no sir.

Now, a tube of Drostes pastilles, _that’s_ chocolate. Or maybe Lindt truffles. Mmmm.

Hey, I think there’s a new episode of House on tonight. Dunno what reminded me of that, but I’m watching.

I also handed in my vacation schedule for the year. I wanted to get in for the last week of March, 'cos then when I come back I’ll have two 4-day weeks, Good Friday and the following Monday being stat holidays and all. Unfortunately we have inventory the last weekend of March, so they wouldn’t let me. Hmpf. I had to take the third week of March instead. Oh well. I always get the week of Sept. 20th off, though. ( **MindWife** ’s birthday, with mine following the week after)

Don’t we do these things where we post with our eyes closed all the time? I don’t hreally have anything super to report, other than the fact that I’m back to the SDMB… I have this problem where I can only be active on one messge board at once, and I had found some retail message boards to have fun with.

On a side note, your stalker has returned, **swampy** (I reallly hope that I got those tags right with my eyes closed.

Whew! I have a keyboard again! Do you know how frustrating it is to surf the Dope and not be able to type?

I figured out what was causing my stomach ache yesterday - I took my naprosyn on an empty stomach. :smack: I won’t do that again.

I think I’ve found the [pattern](http://b4bag.blogspot.com/) for the bag I’m going to knit, and I even have the yarn for it. Now I just need to find the right buttons and some clear crow beads.

Oh, FCM, there are [spinners](http://www.vipfibers.com/) who will spin your dog hair for you. There’s a mini-trend right now for knitting dog hair, with [books](http://www.amazon.com/Knitting-Dog-Hair-Better-Sweater/dp/0312152906/sr=8-1/qid=1170192210/ref=sr_1_1/102-8608930-7638542?ie=UTF8&s=books) and everything. I’ve never actually seen a dog hair sweater, though.

I don’t need Bernie’s hair, **FCM** – my two shed enough to knit a whole bunch of dogs! I honestly don’t know why they’re not bald.

I’m waiting for a messenger to bring me yet another [del]idiotic and pointless bunch of drivel[/del] thrilling and exciting Hill job. They have the _stupidest_ rules, too – for example, unlike the rest of the world, you can’t just open and close a quotation with quotation marks for Hill work. Oh no, you can open with a quotation mark, but you have to close with two apostrophes! What rocket scientist figured that one up as a way to torture their reporters/transcribers, anyway? And can I take 'em out and shoot 'em, pretty please?
