Here is the onlyest picture I have of the Grand Babby. Wifey is down there (Eugene) on business today and is going to try to stop by the kids’ house on the way back tonight. I told her to take the camera. We’ll see.
Happy Birthday Doggio!.
I have no idea what I’d do with purple potatoes. I see them in the stores once in a while, but they’re horribly expensive, so I’ve never tried them.
Bobbio, Verizon sold out to Frontier Communications out here last year, and we are Soooooo glad. They’re a much easier company to get along with.
Culinary Boy talking about going into the Marines. He has a charge on his record that prevents the Army from taking him back. I honestly don’t know what to think right now.
When I took the dog out this morning, the ground was white, so I called work. But no delay. Rats.
BBBobbio, welcome to southern Merrylande!!

We got out new TV today and we’re figuring out how the various interfaces work. We’ve found Netflix and daughter just hooked up the Wii. We want to get a new stand that’s taller than the one we’ve got.
Oh, and as of right now, it looks like my command is going to be cut by 30%. On Mar 1, we find out who we report to, and somewhere along the line we’ll find out when the downsizing has to be completed. So I may be retiring by the end of the year.
I’m sure there was more, but I’m tired and frazzled…
Sorry about your friend’s mom, doggio. Condolences to the whole family.
Also: HAPPY BIRTHDAY, old man!
I had a weird day that started off with me slightly oversleeping and then losing my work ID on the way to work. I’m hoping I dropped it on the bus and the driver picked it up. They replaced the ID right away (we have locked floors, so it’s really really inconvenient not to have an ID with you), but I had several additional cards that I’ll need to get replacements for as well.
I sure hope you used the blue potatoes, LiLi.
I know there was more, but I’ve forgotten what. Off to knit and then finish off valentines.
Plants her chair in Doggio’s lawn, crosses her arms and dares the brat to get’er off
Going home today: we have a business trip next week and since it’s “near” home (compared to my current location), I’m going home by train and rental car, then driving to the other place on monday and dropping the car off at the airport. And I and the other woman in the team were able to get rooms in the small hotel in the old town (that’s the area where every other ground-level door is a tapas bar or a restaurant) with the airy rooms and breakfast and internet included in the price. Yay!
Hi! Yep, I’m here this morning. Going in a little later since I’ve got to be at work later and I don’t have any work to justify comp time. So I’ve had some cereal and I’ve got Netflix running on the new TV.
TGIF!! This week has been a bit of a kicker. Between BIL and the news of the RIF at work, not a lot of happy here. Oh well. Next week we’re supposed to get into the 50s, so that’s something to look forward to.
That’s all I’ve got - it’s way too early to have a functioning brain. Happy Firday! Send Chocolate!!!
Good Mornin’ Y’all! Up and caffienatin’. YAWN It’s Firday!!! YAY!!!
Have a great trip Nava. Yay for intertoobz connection in your hotel room.
StickyBuns I enjoyed that link.
Not much happenin’ on da cave front. Steak, Friggin’ Good N.O.T. and sallit for dindin. That’s always a good fall back dindin, plus it bein’ Firday and all an easy one to make whilst enjoyin’ a cold beerverage or three.
Now I must seek more caffiene and brekkie for rumbly tummy prior to irk purtification.
G’morning all, up and caffeination in progress, although only a few swigs are in me just yet.
And a very happy FIRDAY to all! This has seemed like a very long week to me and today I woke up with the beginnings of a nasty head cold. What a topper to the week! Ah well, at least I have the weekend to try to recover.
Hope everyone enjoys their day. I’ma have to toss out a Rosie’s .sig here, as I can’t remember a blasted thing I wanted to commentate on. Yay for the weekend!
Howdy from irk! I’m at the main office today. Right now I’m playin’ receptionist and catchin’ up on paperirk. I was told I sound handsome over the phone.
“No kitty, that’s my coffee!” Repeat ad infinitum and that’s my morning.
It was bad enough when there was just one cat to go after my coffee but now there are two more. At least Klondike is usually elsewhere getting into mischief and I rarely have to fight off all three. No, I’m not going to give them their own coffee, I do not need cats on caffeine.
