Thanks, Biggirl, i was really stuck there wondering about those tacks. One of my cookies is broken - it’s a PepFarm ‘Chessman’ butter cookie and it boke right at the horse’s neck - looks like a message from my godfather.
Also, have i gotten stronger or are they making soda cans thinner and cheaper?
O.k., here goes:
I decided to spice up my wardrobe, so after much deliberation, I bought some cargo pants. I didn’t get the carpenter pants, because I wouldn’t want to mislead people into thinking I’m a carpenter.
I have an overweight cat, and three goldfish.
I get excited when my employer changes the design of the ink pens they put their logo on.
I have never used a #1 or #3 pencil, but I would like to.
I am slightly disturbed by the round-headed kids in the comic strip “Family Circus”.
I think italics are flashy, and overused.(I’m getting annoyed at myself just for having used them.)
I secretly hope I win the title of “Most Mundane Poster on the SDMB”, but I’m not getting my hopes up.
FACTS:
I’m 19, I have no friends, I don’t date (anymore) and it’s my fifth year of high school
I can spell almost anything.
When I’m bored, I alphabetize Smashing Pumpkins songs.
I can count to ten in 6 languages. No ever asks to hear me do it.
Among my desk top toys is a little toy robot that is self-propelled, carries around a little broom and dustpan, and is, in fact, a vaccuum cleaner. He will suck up any pencil shavings he runs over. And he has red flashing lights in his eyes.
I can recite the preamble to the constitution backwards.
Sometimes I wonder if my life would be easier if I were gay. Meanwhile, I’m straight and I’ve seen “Clueless” 4 times.
But I’m too freaking cool to be a nerd.
Oh yeah, one time I beat Super Mario Brothers while I was drunk. Then I beat the Super Nintendo Mario Game. Then I vomited.
Dammit, I WIN.
ps my life wasn’t always like this. Most of these things occurred in the last 6 months.
Biggirl rocks. I can’t wait to meet you in May, darling.
saucy potato hangs his/her t-shirts up. If mine get folded and put in the bureau, they’re lucky.
CPI: Number 3s have a lighter, softer lead. I’ve used them in art class. I would imagine, therefore, that number ones have harder, darker lead.
The poppyseed bagel I ate for breakfast shed all over my desk, and now there are poppy seeds stuck to my treasured roll of double sided scotch tape. Feh.

Wow, unless somebody with an eyeball growing in the middle of their forehead pipes in, Flup might be our grand prize winner.
after a couple hours I finally broke down and pooped.
I had highlights put in at lunchtime. They look nice and, well, light. My hair smells really good. So now I’m just sittin here, postin to the board, with glittery bandaids on 4 of my fingers to keep me from picking at them, smelling my hair, wishing it was 5 o’clock.

DAMMIT!! You ruined the suspense for me, SwimmingRiddles!! Between that, and Flup beating my mundane ass, I now have nothing to look forward to…OOHH!! A new ink pen!!!
My office stocks these “Zazzle” highlighters with the gloopy fleurescent liquid inside, like little lava lamps you can write with.
They come in little packs of five --yellow, blue, green, hot pink and purple. Whenever somebody cracks open a new pack, I’m quick to swipe the purple one.
I have been reading this thread, and I now realize that there is someone named rosebud. I hope s/he doesn’t think I copied off of them…the magic blue oreos I was eating a few minutes ago have apperently stained my hands, teeth and tounge blue and I have to go to a dress rehersal soon. Someone told me the other day that they saw my identical twin in Cancun. Wouldn’t be freaky if I ran in to her one day? Not literatally, though…
There are 17 sections in the wood paneled wall across from my desk.
Oh yeah?
Well my cubicle has 9 sections… but they’re fuzzy!
WHOA! I cubicle with 9 sections… thats one f’d up cube!
…hey Inky-! where can I get me some of those lavalamp like pens???
I, on the other hand, haven’t. Two more hours to go. Do I have the willpower? We shall see.
I got into a fender bender at lunch. Some college girl was in a big hurry. She said it was her dad’s car and he was going to kill her. I told her to slow down. No one hurt. Broke a tailight. Damn airfoils on these new Mustangs… Also scratched the bumper. Who cares, it’s a truck. It has a big, tough bumper. That’s the second time that same tailight has been busted. The first time I wasn’t in the car.
Here are some random things I have collected at parties: a Pocahontas sticker, over 70 beer bottle tops, some Balloons-in-a-Tube, and a Christmas tree ornament with a picture of Julia A. Moore.
I just relived the zipper scene from “Theres Something about Mary”, now Mr. Happy has a hickie.

Mc Whorters I suppose. They are made by Zebra, come in a vinyl pack of five, are called “Zazzles” and are filled with fleurescent goop. Wonderfull.
Inky- said:
Oohh!!! We just get the regular yellow. It’s an exciting day when we get a box of pink ones. But they’re not even the ones that you can sniff and get high off of.
So I have to resort to that wonderful invention of Monkees’ matriarch Bette Nesmith (learned that from Cecil), Liquid Paper. Better known as White-Out. [:drool, drool, glassy-eyed stare:] 
While we’re on office supplies (at least while I’m on office supplies): Today at work I suddenly realized that for some reason, I don’t like large paper clips, only small ones. But I ran out of the small ones, and the supply room only stocks large ones. So I use large ones now.
I made a little animal (a cow I think) clipping together a bunch of small, medium and large binder clips.
