I love it when a plan comes together!

Er, I mean, no of course not!

DH had a visit with the radiation oncologist. The good news is: **Tumor? What tumor?**

All I need now is “Back pain? What back pain?” but I’m only one-third into the predicted recovery time.

**gotti** great news for DH! YAY!!! Hang in there, you’re recovery is underway.

Still really quiet today. Even in the break room. It’s cold out so maybe all the crazy is stayin’ in to keep warm.

I was playing with Gordie. Now there’s more dog hair on me than the dog.

Today was a better day at work, because I got to hang out with coworkers at lunchtime and Insane Staring Woman wasn’t in the lunchroom today to stare at us. Yay! 🙂

I need to get back to work on my music project.

For some reason I was comparing the Dead Pool threads between this year’s and from 2006. **Swampy** are you ever going to _stop_ picking Courtney Love?

For some reason, I feel very, very happy that I have no clue what “robot chicken” is.

One day closer to my sweetie getting home. 😃

Busy day at work - I created detail drawings for all the parts I’ve drawn up so far. Tomorrow, I’ll look at them with fresh eyes, fix the errors, and pass them forward for check. Then I’ll start the next batch - a few details, but mostly the assembly. It’s gonna be a major-league booger because I know already that it’s missing a lot of info. But that’s why I get the big bucks. Well, big bucks compared to fast food slaves, but less than half what I made as an engineer. It’s all relative, isn’t it?

So glad the week is almost over, for a variety of reasons. Plus I stopped on my way home today and got ice cream, so all is right with the world.

Happy Thursday!!!

My sis posted this on her FB page and I just had to share it here. I suspect it’s an oldie, but it made me giggle.

Actually, I heard she went around yelling “Super sex!”

“I’ll have the soup.”  
😃

I’m having tequila lime salmon with chili cumin corn and peppers. No rice since _someone_ forgot to pick up rice.

Dindin has been cooked, et, the kitchen cleaned and ummm… we have conjugated. 😃 OYKW is stayin’ at da cave tonight. Right now he’s havin’ him a soak in the whirlpool tub.

**Sean** Courtney has to off herself sooner or later. I am convinced that Courtney Love, Lindsay Lohan, and Miley Cyrus are goin’ out partyin’ together and blow each other up. What a CDP coup that will be!

I have high hopes and big dreams.

Person who just phoned me: “Hello Emily, I’m calling on behalf of the McGill Alma Mater Fund…”  
Me: “Sorry, I don’t have any money. Thanks. Bye.”

Seriously, after me having done this for I don’t know how many years now, you’d think they’d get the hint. It’s bad enough that they send me mail asking me for money, but when they call, it’s more intrusive.

Besides, now that I do have money, I’m not necessarily going to give it to the university. Don’t let them know that… 😉
