Second day in a row that puppeh let me sleep in - yay!! Maybe it’s because it’s been overcast so the room doesn’t get really bright really early?? Hmmm, if I cover her crate with a black canvas… hmmmmm…

Good morning! It’s a crab day, but so far, the only crabber on my list is one we already checked. We shall see if anyone else decides to go out.

**Spidey** , I appreciate your kind and generous offer, but \*\*FCD \*\*has no problem snarfing down misshapen cookies. Frankly, I’m surprised there are any left this morning, but there are! And a photo of a tux on a hanger hardly counts. 😛

\*\*sari \*\*- deep, cleansing breath. Don’t make yourself crazy - your agent should have told you who was covering for him (her?) but it’s all good. They fill in for each other all the time. Happy thoughts… happy thoughts…

Yeah, \*\*BBBobbio \*\*- happy thoughts… 😛

Need more caffeine…

Happy Wednesday!!

**[COLOR=“RoyalBlue”]Happy Birthday BBbobbio**[/COLOR]

Happy Hump Day!

It’s an overcast 65 degrees outside with a projected high of 83.

I have a feeling the next few weeks are going to be crazy.

**FCM** I did have a number for someone else to help, the problem was they weren’t responding either. Finally another person called, all apologies and is helping me get everything done on time.  
We talked late last night - being that she is in California - and will finish up today.

Now we have to figure out what to do with my money because it is in cash.  
I can’t even deposit it because the final approval people will see the deposit and want to know where it came from.  
WTF?! We’re not talking a lot of money and why the fuck should anybody have to explain why they have cash.  
Well I know why, because only criminals carry cash and obviously I am either laundering money or am a big time drug dealer.

I guess this is why teachers used to keep the entire class after school for the actions of one student. To prepare us for a life of being inconvenienced by rules designed to catch criminals.

Happy birthday, BBBobbio!

I am at irk, it is not too irksome as I’ve just been to a retirement lunch so that was a nice break in the day. It’s humid here too, and it’s been raining on and off all morning so that’s not cheering us up at all - but it’s afternoon and hometime will be here soon enough.

It’s Wednesday and that means it’s the pub tonight. Woot!

**Happy Birthday, Bobbio!!!**

I am here in the office, and have a bad, bad case of the donwannas.

My youngest sister is at the hospital and in labor. Last time she checked in about an hour ago, she was at 9 cm and had been for quite some time. I am so excited for the arrival of my new niece or nephew. We don’t know yet what she’s having because she and my brother-in-law wanted to be surprised.

\*\*Taters \*\*- huzzah for new babby!! 😃 I understand the practical side of wanting to know if it’s a boy or a girl, but I like the whole surprise thing, personally! As long as the surprise isn’t something like triplets… :eek: Looking forward to babby pics!

Since there are no crabs to be monitored, we’re going to the movies today - Red2 at the new [Xscape14 theater](http://xscapetheatres.com/) in Brandywine. $7.75 for the matinee… guess no one does buck movies any longer, do they… _\<sigh\>_

Congrats **Auntie Taters**!  
Though I don’t know why anyone ever wants to be surprised as to the sex of their child if they can find out ahead of time 😛

After a couple decades of watching friends and relatives, I have a theory. First-time parents who are still in their twenties want to know the sex of the baby. First-time parents in their thirties are just happy to be having one and want to be surprised.

Second baby, all bets are off. 😉

Also, is this just birthday week, or what? **Happy birthday, Bobbio!!!**

Babies have altered my back healing schedule. My one month follow up with Spineydoc was rescheduled due to the birth of twins. Not entirely sure why that means uprooting schedules for his patients, but such is life.

Happy Bbbbobbio Birthday!

Stressy not fun day. Calling around to try and give all the bills people one month’s notice of moving out. Having the same conversation multiple times:

‘So, what will your forwarding address be?’  
‘No idea.’  
‘Ummmm…’

The phone company are the biggest eejits so far- despite me being on paperless billing for the last 5 years, they will only send a paper bill for the last bill. Which will be sent after I move out. To this address. And they won’t email me a copy…

Genius :rolleyes:
