The waiting MMP

Good Mornin’ Y’all! Up and caffienatin’. YAWN 'Tis 36 Amurrkin out with a predicted high of 60 for the day. This is desribed as cool and dry weather. Oh and gonna be near 80 on Sattidy. Go figure.

Ok, that’s all I got. I need more caffiene and to feed rumbly tummy. Then, alas and alack, irk purtification must commence. ICK!

Happy Hump Day Y’all! Will. Never. Get. Old. :smiley:

Today is my 10-hour day. Still better than having to listen to boring speeches at the irk Christmas party.

Morning, all…it’s still morning here for another minute! I met my replacement for this job yesterday, she’s very nice and I think she’ll soon have this dept knocked into shape. In a bizarre twist of fate, it turns out that I’m actually going to cover the position in the Law School that she’s vacating so that will be a laugh. At least I know who to phone when I need help.

In other news, I’ve almost finished my timetables and am intending to get them published for the students by the end of the week when I leave. That will be a significant achievement considering the mess that they were in when I started here two months ago.

Hurrah! And it’s pub night tonight too, that’s something else I am waiting for.

Morning all.

2.5 more days. Sleepy and most likely bored blurf for today.

Not only that, but you know her extension and where her office is!

I’m trying to test some stuff which She Who Is The Best (boss said, I disagree) said worked a certain way but which is not working that way. Right now I’m supposed to be waiting for the program to do some automagic. I’ve waited long enough to have lunch and come back and I’m still waiting. So, yep, not the MM any more but I’m waiting a lot…

Yawn. Good morning, everybody. The roads are clear(ish) and not very icy, so that’s a start today. I’m thinking we’re going to have one of those winters where we run out of salt.

Whomever is in charge of birthdays (who or whom? Crap. I know the rule, but I can still never get it right), please remember that I have one coming up. Rosie’s usually pretty good at that, and Facebook will remind her. :slight_smile:

I’ve got a massive case of the donwannas today. I don’t expect improvement until January.

Happy Hump Day!

It’s a sunny 30 degrees with a projected high fo 38.
It’s supposed to get up into the 60s over the weekend, we’ll see.

Damned gall bladder did it again. This time I went to the ER, and I have a referral to a gastric dude, of whom I will lobby hard for getting the damned thing yanked.

Good.

Meanwhile, BLURF!

Rosie, I’m near death. Will you come nurse me back and sing Soft Kitty to me?

Up, and caffeinated, working closing shift tonight.

I think swampy is closer. :stuck_out_tongue: Hope you feel better, though.

Drae, I depend on Facebook for my birthday reminders, too.

Blurf.

I might be working outside today, and really don’t want to be- it’s really windy, with on-and-off horizontal rain, and I’m not going to be wearing anything properly waterproof. Hopefully the event will wind up mostly or entirely inside, and it’ll be OK.
I’m having a biig roast lunch/dinner (what does one call a large meal eaten at about 3.30pm?) in the hopes it’ll keep me warm. It shouldn’t be a late night at least.

Absolutely

Soft Kitty, Warm Kitty
Little Ball Of Fur
Happy Kitty, Sleepy Kitty
Purr, Purr, Purr.

Jim and I can handle this.
Box cutters, clothes pins, needles, thread, alcohol and Wikipedia.
See? Smaller than the tummy, and it’s green.
What could go wrong?
:slight_smile:
Seriously, good luck. I hope they take it out for you.

I have everything but the clothes pins but I added my linesman’s pliers to the list :eek:

Seriously get it removed before Flytrap and I decide you have hurt enough. Maybe you can use this as leverage…

“Hey Doc can we get this removed properly because if you don’t do it some of my internet friends are going to do it with hand tools”

Happy Humping Day all

Jim

Howdy from da cave! So glad to be here. ‘Twas a really ummm… irky irkday. Folks not behavin’ a week before Christmas even! Tsk! Tsk! Tsk!

Dindin shall be salmon patties, English peas, smashed N.O.T. and bizkits cause it’s easy and I need me some southern food of the comfy sort. Tonight is also Evening Prayer over to the chruch house which I always enjoy.

The MMP has everything up to and includin’ health care! :smiley:

Laterz!

Would these be the Paula Deen English peas?

Still at irk, only now I’m the one in charge. Bwa-ha-ha-ha-ha! Pretty quiet although I may suffocate on Daisy’s cologne. He’s about ten feet away from me and it’s stifling.

squelches in

It was outside. Mostly.
It rained cats, dogs, lions, (it was at the zoo), and even the ducks were taking cover. The car park was flooded by the time I left.

I’m back there tomorrow, and I don’t care if my coat doesn’t technically meet the uniform regulations, I’m wearin’ it.

I survived my day, even tho I had to beg for work. Missy Prissy was whining about having to come in on her day off, but somehow she doesn’t have anything for me?? Well, she will - the boss told her she can’t work on her day off and she’d better give me things to do, so yay.

Supper will be burgers and steak fries which are in the toaster oven, um, toasting… :smiley:

**doggio **- actually, I’m the closest to **BBBobbio **- maybe 20 miles?? But I ain’t no nurse. :stuck_out_tongue: Altho, scrubs do look comfy…

Time to warm up the George Foreman - I’s hongree!!

Well, my birthday got “announced” here (i.e. MMPers wished me a happy birthday) because some of the MMPers have me as a friend on Facebook.

Happy very-belated-birthday! :smiley:
