There have been some great lines over in the Air Traffic Controller + kid thread. I’m a particular fan of
“Looks like The Order Of The Perpetually Twisted Knicker has a lot of new members” and “Sometimes I think the SDMB is half-composed of a Turing experiment that is only partially completed and chock full of bugs.”
I wanna be in the Order of the Perpetually Twisted Knicker.
I need you all to join in my campaign to prohibit video teleconferences on Friday afternoons, especially when they cause you to stay late.
Yes, I have a VTC tomorrow. At 3:15. I usually leave work by 2:30. I’ll be lucky to get out by 4:30 tomorrow. I am not a happy camper. I hope it gets cancelled, which is why I’m going in my normal time instead of 2 hours late. grrrrrrrr
On the other hand, it’s a gorgeous day, sunny and severe blue sky. It was a tad windy, but overall, a loverly day. I’ve got a humongo pot o’sketty sauce simmering away. Some will be supper, the rest will be frozen for future meals. Yum.
BBBobbio, **FCD **was blowing stuff up last week for work. He said when they do the next round of tests later in the spring, I can go along. Woohoo!!
If I don’t post tomorrow, you’ll know I shish-kebabbed my team leader and they caught me. Stoopit VTC…
I’m with you on the VTCs, FCM. I hate them, hate them, hate them. Our always seem be scheduled during lunch around here.:rolleyes: I’ve had a few where I had to be in at the buttcrack of dawn, and few where I had to stay past my time to go home. Regardless of what time they’re scheduled, I hate them.
Have any of you ever tried these? OMG! They’re practically orgasmic! Plus, between the dark chocolate and the natural pomegranate, think of all the healthy antioxidants coursing through your body!
That was Dad’s favorite movie… dude was a farkin’ romantic. Certainly much more romantic than Mom, whose idea of romantic involves an appropriate price tag.
My wallet with the driving license in it has finally made an appearance. I can now rejoin civilization (or civilisation, as the case would be).
Last night (late afternoon, early evenin’, whatever) a friend came over to get assistance with settin’ up her facebook stuff. I finally kicked her out at eight o’ clock cause that’s my bedtime bein’ as I have to go to work at six am. She was just fascinated by the whole thing. I got her started on Farmville cause I’m all evil like that.
Roise (I’m not ready to let that one die yet) I could get OYKW to do anything by wavin’ a bag of those under his nose. He loves pomegranates and paired with dark chawklit… well, he’d either do anything I say or beat me up and grab the bag. I do believe that would be his crack.
Nava I am so glad you found your driver’s license and can remain amongst us civilized, urbane, sophisticated, suave, debonair and couth types.
Positive respiration and pulse rates, insufficient traumatic injuries to require medical intervention and transport to emergency care. Academic future is a tertiary consideration.
I stayed home from work today. I am still sick and really shouldn’t have dragged myself into work yesterday. I also had another moving survey done as apparently according to the relocation people the previosu two estimates were very expensive…no kidding this is Paris!
I need to complete my French tax stuff now fun fun fun!
