Heh, do you realize that my above post was my 3000th?!
::Throws a small confetti party for myself::
Carry on.
Hooray!
I’m exhausted. A client called who was supposed to have lunch delivered at noon today for 20 people to say that lunch was now for 25 people and due at 11:30!! Oh, and she was calling to tell me all this at 10:30. :eek: Well, we did the best we could. Lunch was probably going to end up about 5 minutes late.
Ok, I’m off to try to drag myself to Curves now.
Thanks for that list, Beebo. I hadn’t realized one of my fire tales was missing from the compendium I’m keeping.
I noticed it myself at the last minute, it was the last edit I made before posting today.
Just under the wire, just.
I think I just saw my company’s chief marketing officer check out my boss. It seriously looked like CMO was checking out Boss’s ass. :eek:
Boss IS pretty hot. But Boss is dating another coworker… geez, suddenly it sounds like a soap opera around here!
I was sent home and must find new employment.
Just kidding! I was sent home early due to 3 cancellations (one is this one guy who is supposed to get a vasectomy and every time he’s on the schedule, he has an excuse to not have it done. This time he has to work. Maybe he does, but wouldn’t ya think after re-scheduling this thing 4 times, he’d have made arrangements?). IMO, he doesn’t want the surgery…
Off to take a nap. I hope LiLi et al are ok. Drat these hospitals for not having computer portals and WiFi!
(Driving by the other way… !mmmoooooorrrrv)
{{McUNE}} – can’t repeat that often enough.
**Taxi **-- assuming we’re talking hetero, which of the two is the male? THe ass-checker or the ass-checkee?
I don’t even know why I need to know this…
I have a feeling **Lili **has spawned; or is going to very shortly.
All others – you know the drill… (Yay, Boo, whatever…)
I have to go to the library and to the post office…and it’s 11F. They say it feels like 0F. Actually, that’s better than about half an hour ago when I checked and it was 6F and they said it felt like -8F! Brrrrr. I guess we had some really cold air come through, though it would have been nice to get some snow in front of it.
I guess it’s time for me to go bundle up and head out.
So… Let’s recap my last conversation with TVMan:
-
EvilEx is sending him naughty pictures to see which ones she should submit to online porn site. :smack: Yeah, I know this sounds kind of :dubious: but if you ever met her you’d be just like ‘Eww’ and that’s about it. Other than to piss me off, she’s sending him the pictures because he used to take her naughty pictures in the past and is supposedly good at it.
-
TVMom stopped over today and wanted to know if we broke up because TVSon found a myspace page that belonged to TVMan with him listed as single. This is his ‘other’ myspace site where he boasts about his politically incorrect inclinations. I really don’t mind too much not being affiliated with that page.
-
GoodEx’s husband has cancer. SoSoEx supposedly had the same kind of cancer and had surgery for it. But it’s only supposedly because the next time he saw her (about 5 years ago) he didn’t see any scars. And he looked (all over) because SoSoEx’s only goal ever was to get him naked. Um, yeah, obviously it must have worked. :dubious:
You just gotta love my life. :rolleyes:
In other news, though, I got weighed and measured at Curves today. I lost 7.2 lbs and 1.75 inches!!!
Actually, we’re not. Both CMO and Boss are male. CMO is rumored to be gay; I know Boss is not, since Coworker that he’s dating is female. So part of the reason that the whole thing was funny is that I know a bunch of female employees check out Boss on a regular basis, and I’m amused that at least one of the male employees does the same. 
So I think we ought to get LiLi one of these. :rolleyes:
taxi, that thing costs more than my first house! :eek:
pie, good work!!
taxi, for some reason that website tickles me. Sure, add the $52,000 pirate ship to my cart, I need to continue shopping! 
Good for you, CP!
I was thinking about the size of the cart that would be required in order to, well, cart that ship around the store… 
Cutie, good job! even if I started out thinking “how did she become 1.75” shorter?" 
Also yay for 5 more lunches, even if you had to work hard. More lunch is always a good thing
TVMan’s escapades on the other hand… well, if you say you’re sure it’s all right… :dubious:
Rigs, I’d say that patient most definitely does not want to go through the vasectomy his wife/GF/whatever ordered him to undergo… :eek:
Only reading from the top of this page… **Boo **-- two pints does sound like a short drinking spree… 
**Spaz **- here’s to getting paid for Doping
**SnowBunny **-- just reading your post made me feel chilly!
I’ll know I’ve found true love when someone buys me a $52,000 pirate ship.
Geez, would a real pirate ship cost that much?
Am utterly exhausted - been up since 5:30 and running around from Des Plaines to the Loop. Must stumble home. And have some food!
So no laptop at the Lisslar hospital bedside?
I’ve said some prayers for the intercession of St. Gerard, the patron saint of Motherhood, for our Lissla. I’ve still got his holy card on my desk from my pregnancy three years ago! [/Catholic geek]
My sister used to nanny for some billionaires who’d bought a genuine caboose and installed it in their yard as a playhouse for their kids. :eek: They also bought the neighbor’s house for a million dollars and tore it down to build themselves a fancy entrance gate. :rolleyes: All this while living in a 10,000-sq-foot house that had 10-1/2 bathrooms (and four refrigerators) but only three bedrooms, one being a nursery off the master bedroom. Uh…right. (But I would kill for their TV room in the basement – a TV the size of a movie screen!)
I finished SUPER-rush job and am now back finishing up regular rush job; just stopping by to see if LiLi has spawned yet. I guess I should shut up and get back to work since clearly someone doesn’t love us enough to keep us informed minute-by-minute of the arrival of TNC! :rolleyes:
Shiva H. Vishnu, taxi! Where did you find this thing? And if I buy one and donate it to East Carolina (my alma mater/current mater; mascot: PeeDee the Pirate), can I use it as a tax write-off?
Alas, I found my boss shortly thereafter and went to shelve new books in Reference for two hours. Now I’m getting paid to Dope around. (On the desk in Archives–no one’s showing up until the History and Freshman Comp II students get their big projects at the end of the month.)
Oh, and a car update: I got my Altima back last night. Turns out the tow truck driver was innocent and I retract what I said about him. One of the service managers at Kia broke the verbal payment agreement we had made back in September. I told them at the time that I wouldn’t have money until January, but he just up and had my car towed in December because he was impatient. :rolleyes: I didn’t even have to lawyer up–I sicced Complicated Roommate on him (he used to work at Kia) and talked the guy back down to the $300 I owed him in the first place instead of the $800 he wanted to charge me.
So now my Altima sits in my driveway, dirty and beaten down by life. I have a list of salvage yards to call tomorrow and hopefully my little Nondescriptmobile will be a car organ donor by next week.
I’m kind of sad about this. That was my first car. But I’m so irritated at the fuel system going out on me that I’m not too upset. Ce la vie, times change, new car to be picked up on Sunday, and all that.
Yay for Spaz’s new car! What is it? You may have mentioned it, but I have the attention span of a gnat with ADHD sometimes…
It’s a bit sorta mild, so I took the doggies for a short walk. Sadly, walks have to be short because so many people around here let their dogs run loose. I saw one in a yard that we were approaching, so I turned around and we came back home. Probably for the best, anyway. Poor Bernie actually fell once - she’s definitely an old lady now.
I’ve got a load of whites in the washer and I put a second coat of paint on the new bathroom vanity (finally) and I’ve got a hunk of salmon thawing on the counter. I see it’s after 4, so I better feed the doggies before they wither away into nothing.
Is it Firday yet??
Still feeling blah this afternoon. I think it has something to do with one of the women in group last night. She reminds me of Jennifer. She has the same something. I don’t know what it is, but it keeps pulling me back in time.
My lunchtime knitting project came to a screeching halt. I’ve run out of properly wound yarn. I’m hoping I can salvage the remaing 4 skeins, because I am **exactly ** halfway through this project. I’d really, really like to finish it this year, rather than rip something out that I’ve been working on since March.
