It was ok. I'm amazed at how truly horrible the SFX were.

Nope, you're there.

Oh poop! All out of gel! I thought there was some below the bathroom sink. Ack!

Not only that but I can't find my Mickey & Minnie jukebox pin.

Too late to fix those things now. I'm off!

Wish me luck!

BTW: I've donated a prize for the raffle on behalf of the LoT, a very nice Disney snowglobe. Don't worry you owe me nothing. I just wanted y'all to be a part of the evening in spirit.

Have a great time at the dance with the kids! Thanks for thinking of the LoT, we'll be there in spirit!

Problem solved.

Maddy, men are like merry-go-round horses. You have ups and downs with them and when they leave you, it's just a matter of time before they remember themselves and come around again. But ignore this one when he comes back...

Hang in there.

I had a nice quiet VD with some nookie at the end. I made dinner, and while I was finishing the veggies, hubby cut up the roast. He cut one of my pieces into a heart shape. He makes me giggle.

So how's this for a Happy Valentines Day story? I get a call yesterday from one of the girls I work with and she's obviously fighting tears. An email came in letting us (and 150 other stores) know that we're closing. As of closing the night before we're all no longer employees of our company. We now belong to a liquidator and will be selling off everything until the store is empty and then we're done. Benefits, insurance, retirements, everything are all now canceled. It doesn't bother me much because I'm just there making a little extra bread while I'm in school but I really feel for the full timers who were in it for the long haul. Emails from all the other closing stores started flying with rantings and lots of venting. Some people have been with the company for years and are now out on their @$$es. Super lame. The kicker? A box labeled "Do Not Open Until Directed To Do So" had arrived that morning. We, of course, opened it and it was full of "Store Closing" signs so this has been in the works for weeks, if not months, and they just sprung it now.

So yeah, in a way, I was involved in a new Valentines Day Massacre yesterday. Fun times!

(Oh, so BTW, if any of you want some nice leather goods make a trip to a nearby Wilsons Leather over the next few weeks. There's bound to be one closing near almost everyone and from the looks of it stuff is going to be marked way, way down. Good hunting!)

How's this:

Susan got a call yesterday from her doctor, the day after her mammogram (whenever they call the day after a mammogram, it is not a good thing), with the news that they found a cyst on one side and a calcium buildup on the other. They are getting approval from the insurance company to do the biopsy which she will be going in for as soon as the approval comes in.

She's it is nothing to worry about yet, but I am freaking out.

Jazzman - Sorry to hear that.

Kevy - You're not allowed to freak out. You need to be strong for Ms. GusGus. Besides, there's nothing to freak out about yet.

GusGus - Sending the good vibes your way.
