I’ve got to get some printer ink - I’m out of magenta and my stoopit printer won’t even allow me to force it to print black only. Plus we need some other stuff. I’ll venture forth when Staples is open. I slept thru the night last night, but had a weird dream that I was packing up to move. Except the cabinets I was packing were located in a train station, and as I was taking my stuff out and stacking it before boxing it, no one was stealing anything! Weird! 😃 One really nice thing about my sweetie being back to work - tomorrow is his payday, so tonight, money will magically appear in our account. Woo and hoo! I lurves me direct deposit and I absolutely do NOT miss standing in line at the bank with a paper check! Huzzah for technology that really makes my life easier! 😃 Oh yeah, and Happy Thursday! ---

I believe that printer manufacturers are in the business if selling ink. :dubious: ---

Ya think? I think Epson is really into that. Our old Kodak would print monochrome if the color ink was gone. Not Epson. ---

The chilli made me 😃 I had a dentist visit yesterday, nuttin,’ wrong, again. Shame they don’t do stickers for browed ups. I’m feeling very appropriate for this thread today- I couldn’t get to sleep last night, then when I finally did I didn’t wake up til nearly midday, and I feel terribly blurfy. Very annoying, as I had plans for the morning. ---

> [@missred](#): > > **Emily** , your song and its translations sound interesting to say the least. When you finish it and have your copyright, I hope you put it on YT. I once wrote a piece that worked well as big band or Western swing. The lead and break could be played on either a fiddle or a clarinet. 😃 … Well, the original version (with just me singing and playing ukulele) [is on YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gYCvKQa7fSM). I warn you, though, I’m not good at singing. I got up later than I intended today. As usual. Darn my life. ---

> [@FairyChatMom](#): > > But I wasn’t try to reuse any - I was just trying to use up the black even tho I was out of red. Made no sense to me… It’s about making money, of course. You have to buy a magenta cartridge to print black and white. Ka-Ching! And they try and make it so that you have to buy a new one from them, not a refilled cart from someone else. ---

Speaking of making money, my insurance company caved and says I may have the expensive drug. It appears someone somewhere entered the wrong date on something at sometime. :rolleyes: ---

> [@carnivorousplant](#): > > It appears someone somewhere entered the wrong date on something at sometime. Glad you cleared that up by providing specific details. 😛 Yestidy it snowed a bit, about ½" & last night it was below freezing. So where was it slippy this morning? On the outside walk from the car to the train station? Nope! It was bad getting off the train in the underground concourse, which is not exposed to the elements, because smooth tiles & moisture (probably tracked in on people’s shoes) is not a good combination. :smack: Is it Quit o’clock yet? ---

Happy Thorsday! The sun is shining, the snow is melting and I’m going home today YAY! It’s supposed to be in the 40s so that is good. Another half hour of irk and then I can start getting ready to leave. I have to go to the dump, the bank, the post office and refill a script, then come back here and load up and leave. Happy Birthday Spaz!!!
