Hi **dctaz** , how you doing?!

Oh and I have a wonderful Heloise hint.  
When packing shoes, always pack them upside down on top. Just remember: soles to heaven!

oh, and doing good **Salem**.  
sorry for the hijack of this thread (like it hasn’t been taken to Cuba many tiems before) to announce my thread, hopefully this one will last longer than the 2 posts I had in the last one I started. but that was just a rant on a cow-orker.  
now back to our regularly scheduled hijackings

Hey, **Dreamer!**. I’m just doing a drive-by. Got a Halloween party to take my little Power Ranger to and it’s newspaper deadline day so my day’s shot! Hope all’s well with everyone.

**Salem** , I don’t want the video rights. I just want to cleave to **Mo** ’s bosom! …or bosom to **Mo** ’s cleavage…

**taz** , congrats on the marriage! I guess… I’m a BIG fan of marriage. :rolleyes: Seriously, congratulations!

Well, I don’t know how much I’ll be around today. My chiro appt was cancelled (chiro is sick), I have tons of laundry to do, I need to clean house since Mom is coming to visit the kids (and me) this weekend, and I have that feel-a-nasty-headache-coming-on feeling. Bleh.

_sigh_…it’ll be okay, sweetie. Like I said, I’ll email you all. And, if you really feel you need me, I’m pretty close. We can go to Sausolito some Sunday, maybe hit Houlahan’s.

Silly boy. I am NOT moving to Ohio. It’s just a business trip. But, there’s going to be lots of them, if I plan on staying employed. Doesn’t mean I’m not amenable to the odd trip to, say, Berkeley every now and again. As for the hamsters, they’ll probably be much relieved to see the backside of my posts, which are starting to resemble novellas.  
And, **sorella** , fascinating as Cincinnati may be, I will not have any time to see it. As I will be stuck in _shudder_ Dayton. Innovative Dialysis has several facilities there, oh the joy. Oh, and apparently Toledo, as well. I may faint from the excitement.

Taz, honey, I was meaning to ask you…please email me, I’d love to send you a wedding gift. I saw the perfect thing online this morning.

Wow. That’s almost persuasive enough to leave my job for :D. Unfortunately, my monsters insist on eating every day and having a roof over their heads.

Thanks, honey. 😉 It’s occurred to me that, in all the time you’ve been in this thread, I’ve never seen you say an unkind thing to or about anyone. Except yourself. Knock it off, huh? Give yourself a break.  
**SD** , I hope things get better for you soon. I’ll be thinking about you.  
**Jaade,** darlin, I’ll email you later. Ditto to you, **rocky**.

**Dave** … I think I’ll miss you most of all. Try to stay out of the cold, huh? Love you, dear one. Thanks for everything.

That happens sometimes… I’ve seen threads in ATMB about it and it is a glitch in the DB … basically hampsters on strike … eventually it rights itself 🙂

_sniff_ I’m … like… **Wyatt**?!?!

We love ya and all Tanookie but…

I guess that means I don’t have to bake any cookies for this ingrateful bunch?

(Not meant to in any way imply that I seriously want to replace the one and only mama **Maureen** who I wish loads of luck in her travels and that she comes back as a regular here really soon!)

Just a quick drive by to say apparently I’m in the top 80% of my class. However my office mate (we share a small office) Got the axe. It was excruciating watching him pack his desk. It took about an hour for him to pack and turn his projects over to me. He was crying when he left… Six kids… I need a drink…

Ooooo that is tough…a relief you got to stay but hard to watch your friends leave, especially with a family. Glad you survived.

Wanna’ cookie? Mama gave me one cuz I am her favorite but don’t tell Wyatt. He never gets one cuz he is always bad.

If you were in Texas, i’d take you out and be your designated driver tonight and let you tie one on…just drive you around and let you get plowed and tell all of San Antonio how much it sucks…AND I’d bring cookies…sorry dude  
I’ve been wondering about Dave too. Bet he could use a nice warm cookie.
