Soooo....

I just got a postcard from Antarctica.

[Mousey Girl]

OUCH!! Nickolas and I were playing the game where you rest your hands on top of the other person's hands and they try to smack yours. He got me so good that it ripped off my nail from my pinky finger. I did the owy dance, but a couple "bad words" still slipped out.

My dad is pouting now. Nick and I are going over to visit them tomorrow. I had promised Nick a trip to Dewars and they live near it. He is upset that I won't bring him a banana split. With all of the meds he is on and with the heart issues on top of diabetes his blood sugar is 230 (it should be under 120).

At the same time I was telling him no mom put in an order for a sunday. Tomorrow could be very entertaining.

[lindyhop]

I can get you a match but what did I miss about this promotion??? :D

If I told you I'd have to kill you. Really.;)

I just got a postcard from Antarctica.

The entire continent? Or just one particular penguin?

[Motorboat Cruiser]

Sooooo,

Here's an indication of how my day went. One of the highlights was getting stuck in an elevator filled with smelly garbage (corporate gig). I could give more details as to how this occurred but that's not really the point. The point is, it was just one of many sucky moments today. I'm ready to go to bed, but instead, I'm going to go play golf on the PS2 with Matthew and see how well I can hook a ball into the lake.

[Prudence]

Oooo! Finally got my belated birthday/Christmas presents - the Sleeping Beauty Castle and Mad Tea Party miniatures. Yay!

[Mousey Girl]

Nickolas is playing Lego Star Wars 2, I am getting ready to settle down and read for a bit and David is off taking Dawn's youngest to a father-daughter dance at her school. Nice to see things have changed around here.

[RStar]

I should be in bed, I'm trying to get over a bad cold. But instead I'm reading LoT entries. Also, I just read all of the Random Quotes, and added one to it.

At least 25% of our company of 40 people have just got over, are fighting, or just starting to get this cold. Two people in my family just got over it as I got it last weekend. I'm almost over it now. A worker who just got over it said half of the students at her kid's school were out with it. Any one else experiencing the same thing??9

[wendybeth]

I started with a sinus infection in mid-December, which turned into the stomach flu Christmas morning. Then it went back into the sinus thing, where it threatens to establish permanent residency. I am just plain sick of being sick.

I just got a postcard from Antarctica.

Did it say "Someone I know went to Antartica, and all I got was this lousy postcard!"?

Or "The weather is great, wish you were here!"?

Nothing too exciting. A friend from high school, well actually we started school in pre-school. Anyway he's an Entomologist and has been going there for a few years doing some sort of research.

He said it’s -25 there. And I was impressed that it’s postmarked January 27th and I got it yesterday. Not bad.

I just thought it was cool to get a postcard from Antarctica. The kid was completely un-impressed :rolleyes:

[Gemini Cricket]

I'm impressed. In fact, I know someone who is on a cruise to Antarctica right now. It's a hopping place.
:)

[katiesue]

I did send this once on a post card. To a guy who was a complete ass along with all of his stuff in a box.

[MouseWife]

I just thought it was cool to get a postcard from Antarctica. The kid was completely un-impressed :rolleyes:

Oh, I get giddy receiving mail from anywhere outside of San Diego.

As long as it isn't a freakin bill. Anything but a bill makes me happy.

But, what is really cool is that I have a pal in Finland and Austrailia {no, not you LashBear, you haven't been sending me mail in your sleep...:p }. I love it. What is ironic, we also discuss the weather. The Finnish chickie is saying their winter hasn't been one so far.

Global Warming???

I have been waiting for winter to come late...but the little groundhog said spring is coming early???

[Bornieo: Fully Loaded]

Drove down to Anaheim last night (friday) to see Chicago at the "Pond.' Unfortunatly, the show is today (Saturday).

Could have been worse, you could have driven down on Sunday missing it altogether.

I was sick for most of the first two weeks of January. Now I've just come down with another cold. This one doesn't feel as bad as the last one but I'm still sick of being sick. A lot of people have been out sick at work.

[RStar]

He said it’s -25 there. And I was impressed that it’s postmarked January 27th and I got it yesterday. Not bad.I think the post card was just in hurry to get out of there and into warm weather. It's going to be 80* here tomorrow. :D

I presume you promptly headed for the park instead?

[wendybeth]

It's 12:15 AM, and I've finally got Tori and her two cousins all tucked in their sleeping bags on the living room floor, munching cheesie puffs and cuddling their American Girl dolls (all in matching jammies, of course) while watching Shrek II. They look so cute and sweet.



I give them about two minutes before they start fighting about something.

Oh hell yeah. Thus the raise of the ToT count. :D

It's been a long time since I got home from a gig at 4:30am. I'm feeling rather old at the moment. I used to handle all nighters much better in my youth.

I have just come into hearing about this situation. I am trying to hold my fingers from typing a lot....but, what kind of woman is she if she lost her husband and then stole yours? Not taking away his guilt, hell no. Lowlife people. You will be better off for damn sure.

Umm. I can't type any more without worrying about offending someone or being censored. :D

And a big owie about your finger. :(

Sleep happened about 3am for me and, I feel your pain.

[CoasterMatt]

Steven Tyler woke me up this morning by licking my eye (Steven Tyler is our big black beautiful kitty)

[RStar]

I was so looking forward to sleeping in because I'm still trying to kick this cold. But my internal alarm had me up at my usual 6:20 am. I hate that!

But I stayed in bed for another hour and a half, then slowly got up and had coffee and then breakfast (with BACON of course!). I read the newspaper, and am just now getting into the shower. At least there's something to be said about lounging around the morning!:D

[BarTopDancer]

My roommate is at Disneyland. I'm sitting here doing homework and the kitty is sleeping on the couch basking in the sun since I opened the windows. Something is wrong with this picture.

[CoasterMatt]

BTW, I took away Bornieo's "Retard of the Month" title with my attempt to set myself on fire over the stove last night - my dinosaur like response to the hair being burned off my forearm was just astonishing.

[lindyhop]

Well, I was dancing last night with one of the best dancers in the room and I managed to whack him in the face with my arm while doing a turn. I apologized and he was very gracious about it but he'll probably never dance with me again...

The trees are coming down today :) The first step in the building of this garage we are building. The guy just got here, let's hope he doesn't drop one on my vehicles...

[Brigitte]

Ok, we thought they were coming down today. Now he says he wants the power company to come shut off the power before he takes the back tree. *sigh*

[wendybeth]

You're in for a long haul there, Brigitte. Everyone I know who've had any sort of contractor work done (including one who is having a garage built) is having a more-horrible-than-usual time of it. Don't take any crap offa them!!!!!

Can you wiggle it? If you can, it's not broken. Or so I've heard... I've never broken anything... I've stubbed my toe hard in the past and thought I broke it. The doc said if I can move it, it ain't broke.
:)

[Capt Jack]

if the toe is changing colors, you might want to have it looked at in any case

[Gemini Cricket]

Especially if it's green.

You're welcome! :D

(BTW... I'm already in hell, but I get to go home at 5:30.)

[bewitched]

It's kinda bruised and swollen, luckily it's not green ;) . Could be just sprained or jammed. I can wiggle, but not bend it.

Mostly, it hurts like a *************. :rolleyes:

[Strangler Lewis]

When I broke my little toe, I went to the ER. They x-rayed it, confirmed that it was broken and gave me the "There's not much you can do with a broken toe" speech. Having said that, they yanked it around and taped it to my other toe, and it heeled quite nicely. A big improvement on pointing 90 degrees to the right.

So I'd go to the doctor.

[bewitched]

I was thinking that when I go pick up my daughter from school I'd ask the school nurse to take a look at it.

I'm sure she'll appreciate me thinking of her.

[bewitched]

My day so far...

Bum toe.

Cat pee in the shower.
(when I went to rinse it out I belatedly noticed that the drain was closed)


Broken glass in the kitchen.


Dog barf on the living room rug.
(to be fair, this last one could have been in retaliation for forgetting to feed them this morning)






Alien abduction with the added spice of an anal probe can't be too far off. :rolleyes:

[Gemini Cricket]

Hmmm.
It sounds to me that the cat told the dog, "Hey, look what I did in the shower." The dog saw it and barfed. The cat went to get a paper towel to wipe the dog's face off and broke a glass in the kitchen in the process. Bewitched heard the crash and in her haste stubbed her toe.

I'm so hopelessly addicted to them, it isn't even funny. And now, with all of the Deidrich's completely closed, it seems there is only one place left to get a truly great tasting cup of coffee. If Peets ever closes, I might as well just give up coffee.

[Cadaverous Pallor]

I was very mad about Family Fun back when we first rec'd it and tracked down a phone number (no small feat in itself) to cancel the thing.

Me: I don't want to receive this magazine anymore.

Lady: It's free.

Me: I don't want it. I don't want to kill more trees. I don't have kids. I didn't ask for this. Not every Disneyland Annual Passholder has kids. I throw them away immediately. I don't want it.

Lady: But it's free.


The best I could get from her was "I'll try to get you removed but this is a special promotion and it's free yadda yadda..." We continue to receive both copies.

Perhaps it's time to try again and really pull out the pissed off APer attitude. :D

It's official. My son is trying to drive me insane. Right now he is literally climbing the walls. Why? Because he can.Actually, he has to. He's a boy. It's in his job description.

[lindyhop]

This morning at work there was a meeting scheduled first thing which is not how I like to start my day. The meeting was me, my supervisor, and manager meeting with the VP of the business unit we do accounting work for. My supervisor and I were all prepped for a confrontation over financial reports, they always blame our numbers if they don't meet their forecasts.

When we got there the room was full of about 50 people and we quickly realized it was not the meeting we expected. Turns out our manager was in on the whole scheme to surprise us with STAR awards. These are company awards given for stellar (what else) achievement. The business unit wanted to recognize and thank us for all the work we do for them. That was very nice because it isn't often that anyone says thank you for what you do, it's usually only what you don't do that gets noticed.

[Kevy Baby]

Congrats Debra - that is cool!

[Mousey Girl]

He figured out that if he placed a foot against each side of the hallway he can climb up and bump his head on the ceiling. He then did this in the much wider entrance to the kitchen.

Yanni wouldn't phase him but Billy Joel makes his ears bleed (or so he told me a few years back).

Well, I booked and paid for our DL trip tonight- yayyyyy! We'll be there from April 4th through the 9th, and I look forward to seeing everyone who can be there anytime during our trip!

Ever try a couple of tabs of Melatonin? Works for me.
Are you a coffee drinker?

also.. could be a sugar drop.. sometimes people wake up in the middle of the night because their body is craving protein, and their sugar is dropping.. depends on what you ate for dinner and when you ate dinner.. or if you ate last night before you went to bed??

My 9th-grade daughter has Baby Think It Over for the weekend. It's a robotic baby that you have to take care of like a real baby. It's required for a required course. The idea is that if kids know how much work a baby is, they won't make a baby.

Let me tell you, this thing is waaay more trouble than a real baby, unless that real baby has the colic.

Tonight, I'm babysitting the cranky little robot for my daughter while she goes to the high school play.

Man am I glad we chose Fantasyland side today.

An impromptu trip to the park with MBC and MaChickenXing (right, he has a screenname...and I have I mentioned that I love living 5 minutes from the structure) had us in line for Matterhorn a few minutes before fireworks. I lobbied for Fantasyland side and we weren't disappointed. Spectacular views of fuegos artificales around every corner, and then the capper, an up close view of Tinkerbell as she launched from the mountain. And from quite the interesting angle...never thought I'd see Tink Taco again.

There are four or five programs so it's the luck of the draw, I understand. There's one program for a drug-addicted baby, even!

I should really behave myself about this robotic baby. My kids are used to me, the romance novelist. We are having a little too much fun coming up with scenarios of how this baby came into the world. Working title: Love's Price.

Before the show we went to Cafe Tu Tu Tango (http://www.cafetututango.com/) and got a Spinach Dip and a Raspberry Creme Brulee as a snack while waiting for the show time. That was the best Creme Brulee I have ever had! And I just love that place!

One of our local BBQ places is setting up a large tent in the middle of their parking lot tomorrow morning, setting up for a dinner/dance for Valentine's night. The place I work is providing the tent, chairs, tables and dance floor. Have I mentioned it is a large tent of their parking lot?

This is the same parking lot that I have to park in to pick up Nickolas from Tai-kwon-do every Monday, Wednesday and Friday nights. This month has alreayd been bad because between his gym and the BBQ place is a H&R Block that has been majorly busy.

Am I evil that after today's HUGE cloud-busting downpour that same parking lot looked like a lake and I laughed out loud??

Parking is gonna be a bitch Wednesday night, but at least I had a moment of utter amusement. The water had pretty much run off by the time we left tonight.

I'm watching the start of the Westminster Dog Show that I misssed last night. My fascinated companion, who can't take his eyes off of the TV, is Aleister.

I've been bad. Very bad.

Seeing as it's VDay, knowing that I will not be receiving anything from David, I took care of myself. I bought a beautiful Strellman's Alexandrite ring. It is gorgeous. Depending on the light source, it changes from a pretty purple/pink to a greenish blue. I was very bad.

I just gave Nickolas his Vday present. I bought him a Lego Star Wars set. Seeing how he has torn through his other sets I bought one that will challenge him a bit. It is the Star Destroyer. 1366 pieces...even came with Darth Vader. His eyes just totally lit up. Gem of the morning, "Did you know Darth Vader has eyebrows?"

[LSPoorEeyorick]

So, uh, before I flop back down in bed again--

I was in the ER all yesterday. After 12 hours of vomiting every twenty minutes (like clockwork), I was in a lot of pain and pretty dehydrated. So they fixed me up-- but not before blowing five veins trying to get the IV in, giving me medication that accidentally *made* me vomit that IV fluid back up, and then finding the right meds so as to allow me to choke down a bottle of barium sulfate. Turns out I have "abdominal pain of unknown origin." Probably flu. So if you saw me this weekend, you had better keep an eye on your digestive track-- and do NOT take Immodium, it might make things all the worse if you get worse.

I'm rambling, but I'm still sick so you'll have to forgive me.

So, one of the high muckety-mucks on this floor has decided to start bringing her dog to work. Her large dog. Never mind that the rest of us can't bring in pets. Never mind that this floor is overflow space shared by several units, so it's not just her own underlings that are subjected to this dog. Never mind that this is a public building, so bringing the non-service animal inside every day and giving us all doggy show and tell every afternoon is a violation of the state administrative code (and distracting, but apparently that's not a concern here). No, she's near the top of the food chain, and the one person who was above her and used to object moved on, so now she gets to bring fido in. Because it's just soooooo important that Ms. Assistant Vice President for Regional Affairs get that quality of life boost from having her pooch present at all times, even if no one else can.

[BarTopDancer]

That is sucky Pru. Did anyone report her to the state board or some other higher up in the school administrative office where they would be able to say no pets allowed?

Each day I wait (not so) patiently for my new laptop to arrive. HD compatable, 2 gigs of RAM, 160 gig hard drive, 256MB video card, 7 hour battery. What's amazing is that before I ordered it, the days were just flying by. Now, they seem to have slowed to a crawl. And the worst part...I probably still have another week of this, although they say it may be sooner.

This will replace the current laptop, which is very old school (96MB of RAM, for example). I frequently get smirks when I use it in public and one day a group of kids walked by and one said "man, that is really old". Little bastards.

So, needless to say, I'm pretty excited. :)
