Blurf. Such sad news about **Lynn** , I saw it mentioned on farcebook yesterday ā˜¹ Todayā€™s my last day here at the uni, itā€™s quite an odd feeling because Monday will be the first time Iā€™ve worked anywhere but campus in 14 yearsā€¦brave new world, huh? I have to go and see agency lady at lunchtime to sign paperwork and be all official for the new place which is also exciting because Iā€™ve spoken to her many times in the last couple of years but weā€™ve never actually met. I am with **Swampy** on the fish thing, they are nice to look at but I prefer them battered and deep-fried on a plate. And cats are way more cute. ---

Happy Firday! Itā€™s a dark 7 degrees above freezing outside with a high of 58 projected. I am up too early, Sah-dog did the toenail tap dance next to the bed. Heā€™s so cute though the way he wags his tail when he sees me move that I canā€™t be annoyed with him. Sah-dog seldom wags his tail, heā€™s not an unhappy dog, just very unemotional. If all goes well Iā€™ll be going out to lunch with my friend today. Itā€™s only been four weeks that we have been trying to get together for lunch. ---

Itā€™s in ATMB. Blurf, though Iā€™m actually up, caffeinated and relatively human this morning. I have lots of stuff I should do today, so I should stop proctrastinating already. Happy firday! ---

Good Morninā€™ Yā€™all! Up and caffienatinā€™. _YAWN_ ā€˜Tis 68 Amurrkin out and that shall be the high for the day. Tstorms are approachinā€™. Biiiiiiiiiig time ones from the looks of things. Iā€™m thinkinā€™ today will be an irk from home day. I need to bury myself in electronic files and such and I can do that just as well from da cave as I can from the orifice. I shall alert TPTB to communicate via email, IM, text or call my cell if needed. I donā€™t expect there to be a need except via email but I shall be available. Iā€™m all responsible and growed up like that. šŸ˜ƒ Ok, now I need more caffiene and rumbly tummy wants to be fed. I shall then purtify even though I shall be at home, one can still be groomed. Ok, so Iā€™ll be in a tshirt and lounginā€™ pants (I guess thatā€™s the word for long thin cotton pants that look like pj bottoms but are not pj bottoms), but one can still be properly groomed. I shall also put some chikin boobs, laigs, and thighs on to boil for the makinā€™ of a chikin pot pie. I got a gnawinā€™ and a cravinā€™ for that today. Happy Firday Yā€™all! ---

**flytrap** AIUI the blurfs leadinā€™ up to the big BLURF are the wakinā€™ up blurfs. The gradually smaller blurfs after the big BLURF show the lesseninā€™ of blurfage after each cup oā€™ coffee. Glad I did decide to irk from da cave today. Kitchen fridge has developed a leak. I bought the thing on 12/29/13 so itā€™s till under warranty. I called and someone is allegedly cominā€™ to look at it at some point today, probably mid afternoon. I am somewhat surprised they said someone could come today so Iā€™m not complaininā€™ about lack of a specific time frame. Ainā€™t like I got big plans to leave today. Life. Itā€™s so excitatinā€™. Oh and the temp has dropped to 63 Amurrkin and itā€™s all tstormy out. ---

**midget** NOL is because one of our rarely seen mumpersā€™ nicknames is **Lunch**. **Noone Special** actually has a few nicknames, but **Lunch** is the most frequently used. ---

Looks like the rain is gone. We had a buncha heavy tstorms this morninā€™. Even lost power at da cave for half an hour. In other news, chikin pot pie is all assembled except for the bizkit toppinā€™ which Iā€™ll make and smear on top just before itā€™s baked. Now itā€™s time for N.O.L., grilled pimento cheese sammich and a cold glass of milk. N.O.L. for my inner child! šŸ˜ƒ ---
