Happy Birthday Snow Bunny!
First Indeed!
Happy Birthday Lapin Blanc!
Happy Birthday, snowbunny!!
We’re moving to a new office in a couple months, and the rumor is the decor will be tangerine! :smack: WTH are they thinking? It’s an ugly color to start with, and it’s a fad color so in 2 years it’s going to look even more hideous that it will now. But knowing this company and knowing offices in general, they won’t repaint/get new furniture so we’ll be stuck with tangerine for the next 20+ years. :smack: :smack:
my office walls? faded rust, limp steel blue-gray, and off yellow.
where’s the pukey smilie when you need it?
eta - the cubicle cloth is motled grey… 
:rolleyes:
I left work early today, but when I got home, **FCD ** wanted me to go to the boat and help him clean up, so we ran to Panera for lunch, then to the marina. Just been back a little while, trying to decide whether to get motivated or not. Not is winning.
Happy Snowbunny Day!!!

I’m kinda tired of our office decor as well. There’s a series of fat rectangular arches that are presumably seismic reinforcements painted in eye-earing bright French’s Mustard Yellow. The overhead cable trays (so cable installations don’t have to muck around with the asbestos) are the same bright yellow. Some of the support columns are painted in fat black and white stripes like stereotypical convict’s clothing.
At least I can’t see any of it from my desk as we’ve got 6-foot cube walls.
they let us out early today! wheeee!
I think I’ll take a nap - envy me 
Our current office is a plain, un-offensive tan. Why can’t we stick with that kind of color scheme??
I think I’m going to see if my manager will let me go early. Boss left, all of the high-mucky-mucks have gone, and there are only like 3 people left in the office… unfortunately one of them is my manager. ::sigh:: So much for trying to sneak out.
Thanks, all! It’s been a very quiet day, which is fine by me. I have to decide on what the heck to order from Amazon, which is always a fun challenge.
I have to work tomorrow, so today is not my Firday, but I hope everybody else enjoys theirs.
Urg. My innards are even more upset today than they were earlier this week. This time it’s not just the, er, lower portion of my innards, but my tummy – I have been queasy all day, in spite of a diet of dry crackers and ginger ale. Not that I have time to go to bed till I get this job done (it has a carved-in-stone due date of today). Which I should have had done by lunch time, except that I keep getting distracted by feeling like I need to barf.
And have I mentioned that I never barf? Seriously, I can count on the fingers of one hand the times in my life I have barfed. Even when I was young and stupid, after I had gotten ridiculously drunk, I never barfed. If there’s anything worse than feeling like you need to barf and not being able to, I don’t know what it is. :dubious: 
:mad:
Except smelling Rusty’s farts. 
Papa Tigs took the Idiots to the beach this afternoon as promised, and ever since they got home Rusty has been farting up a storm. After unloading a particularly ripe one in my office (which really, really helps my queasiness level, as you can imagine), he did much better, though – as Papa Tigs reached down to pick up his dinner bowl, he waited till Papa T’s nose was right at butt level and proceeded to cut an even better one right in his face. Hee! At least I’m not the only one suffering from Rusty farts today! (He usually saves them all for my office, lucky me. :rolleyes: )
I think I need to get Papa Tigs to finally get the new 'puter up and running and hooked up to the home network, and see if it’ll work back in the bedroom when I’ve finished this job; I intend to go to bed and stay there until I feel better! It would be nice to have a 'puter with me, though.
OK, first off, I’m buzzed right now…WHEE!!!
I took the afternoon off. First, I was a good bear and went to Good Friday service. Then I came home and decided to be a little productive and washed down the back porch cause it was, once again, covered in pollen. Yay me. Oh, and since ol’ y’all know who who was showin’ up after he finished work, I decided to get all nice and make chicken nachos. Think nachos but instead of beef one uses chicken. They are teh NUM! I had me a couple or four cocktails whilst makin’ the nachos. WHEE!!! Yep, I have enough of a buzz that if’n ol’ y’all know who was smart, he could make major advantage.
Lest I forget…

Just finished watching Hedwig and the Angry Inch - I’m planning to make my students watch it next week and write a paper. I’ve fallen in love with it all over again.
I also whipped up an improvised stew of chicken, potatoes, garlic, chicken broth, chopped walnuts, brown rice, and spiced with parsely, thyme, basil, and Lawry’s Seasoned Salt. Mmmm. Perfect for a snowy day like today. Cloud Maiden approved as well.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SNOWBUNNY!!!
Got it right this time, I think … 
Welp, I guess whatever filter they had turned off at work they must have discovered it was off, because SDMB was -blocked- again today! Ah, it was nice to have access at work while it lasted, and I sure took advantage.
And thank OG it’s finally Firday!!! I dunno if I’ll be out much this weekend, though, as the weather is going to be chilly and maybe rainy too. And this is Easter weekend! Geeze! I’ll do my grocery shopping at the local Safeway; I think I’ll get a turkey or turkey breast; I’ve already got a spiral sliced ham.
Okay, time to figure out what to eat for dinner.
OK…I’m home, had a quick dinner and am off to church…
Haze or any other Pioneer Woman fan out there: Didn’t one of you make Ree’s Spicy Chicken Legs? How were they? I think they (or a variation on them) might be just the thing for Sunday.
Off I go…

Happy Birthday snowbunny!
How old are you, anyways?
I’m here in TVLand now… We just got back from an exciting dinner at Perkins and I am stuffed. That could be because I had a cheeseburger and a chocolate chip cookie sundae. TVMan is trying to convince me that it’s bedtime, but if we went to bed now we’d probably be up at 2 in the morning!
Oh, I almost forgot to tell you all the best and funniest part of my day. This was in an email that I received this afternoon:
And… (drumroll please) that’s the budget whether she has 100 or up to 300 people!!!
There aren’t enough :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: to describe how extremely unrealistic that is. Oh, I also should throw in a couple :smack: :smack: :smack: for good measure.
So, I guess I’ll be free on May 17th if anyone needs me.
Your cuz could probably do it if she just got everyone a Happy Meal!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SNOWBUNNY!!!
Whew, am I glad it’s Friday. Today was my “short” day, meaning I worked eight hours instead of nine. Traffic stunk, as usual, but I’m finally home.
I’ll be changing my clothes soon so I can work out tonight and then come home for some relaxation.
Tomorrow’s plans call for meeting some friends for dinner and then going to their place to visit. They live out in what we laughingly refer to as Redneck Village (Yelm), so it’s a bit of a drive.
It snowed this morning, but it didn’t stick. What the hell, it’s freakin’ spring fer crissake!
Cute kids, Lunch!
I need to check and see if my workout clothes are dry. My son threw them in the dryer, but I’m not sure he put the dryer on the right temperature.
Now this part I could manage but I can’t face the equally required graftapairontomy that has to go with–well that and I don’t wanna lose fifty IQ points due to cranial blood loss! Think I’ll just cripple along with my innie as I’ve done so far!
Bon Anniversaire, Buns!
Pie, I want whatever that chick is smoking because I’m pretty sure I can get like five hundred per ounce for it!
**Taters–**Heh heh, Yelm… snerk
Smarts, did you know that Yelm is where that nutcase who claims to channel Ramtha (from Atlantis) lives? Yuppers, that’s a real winner there. 
Fortunately, she lives on the opposite side of the town that our friends do.
