How good is that!
Sounds pretty good to me (any invites going?)

Sorry phantasm - didn't get the request 'till Monday morning - too late alas! The meal is now just a hazy memory - maybe that last bottle of wine would have been better left unopened!

when julie picks me up from work she brings Sonny (our dog)

well last night when we pull up home i get out of the truck with Sonny. only to be attacked by our neighbor's dog who had gotten loose. he tried to bite Sonny, but instead Sonny bit him. (drawing blood from somewhere) and accidently biting me on the leg. i was wearing my uniform so he didn't break the skin on me. i have a nice bruise though.

order was restored - Sonny having no wounds (but he is a stud) i tried to get julie to have our neighbors buy me some comic books to ease my pain and suffering... no go.

they are great people so i am nor being allowed to shake them down.

Glad you're okay, Sarge.

My bedroom floor has badly needed vacuuming for a while now, so today I decided to get it over with. One thing led to another, and a few hours later we have this: My entire CD collection laid out on the floor, stacked by artist.

Grabbed an old CD rack we weren't using to try and avoid having them stacked on the floor again, but still think there might not be enough room.

Meanwhile, three piles of old unwanted clothes with nowhere to put them, and a big pile of loose change on the bed that I don't want to have to sort and have nowhere to keep.

(I wonder if anyone can identify all of them by the grainy picture, heh. I think one or two might be near impossible.)

The only reason I am going to hell is because Lucifer needs some fresh thinking in the ways of evil.

Havin' a decent day chillin' at home and holding down the fort. This morning I felt like I did all the right things with my two kids (ages 9 mo and almost 4 yrs), but about 10 minutes too late. ...But I wasn't too worried about it then, and I'm not too worried now.

CJ- I've had supervisors & managers like you before (though it was always in CS, never Sales.) YAY! I also enjoyed the post of you being the lone voice of sanity & confronting your co-worker 'n such. =)

Ali- I don't think you sound crotchety... I think that most people don't like it when others don't -really- listen to them and fail to notice an obvious uniqueness - esp. if it's something personal & something as central as spiritual views. Problem is... people don't listen much. It's just that "faking it" worked better for the remaining 95% of your co-workers than it did for you.

And if that's crotchety, then my dad was that "crotchety" back when he was first in college. But of course, it was him and all his buddies egging each-other on to make comments like the passover one to torment the "pious" types. (slightly diff. situation)

Despite checking the machine thoroughly before adding my wash, I somehow gained a foreign sock by the end of the cycle. This is a flagrant violation of the quantum mechanics of laundry, and may be the result of a flaw in the fabric of reality. It may be the first sign of an incursion by the denizens of the Dungeon Dimensions, or a rift in the space/time continuum. Or it might just be Monday. I have learned to expect these sorts of things from Mondays.

Bloody hell, Sorus. I hope you left that thing in the laundry room where it belonged. Who knows what would happen in your sock drawer if you brought it home?

Linna -- Everybody else in this lunch group is some flavor of Christian. Several of them are Catholic. I'm kind of the invader.

Anyhow, somebody gave me the opening today ("what did *you* do for Easter?") and I ran with it. Gave them quite a description of historical Beltane observances, I did!

But then I explained that I wasn't planning to have nearly that much fun....

Haha yes he could probably do with some improvement

up early for no real reason.

art car parade is on a sunday this year - so must negotiate with fellow sgt to switch weekend days.

have to renegotiate time off for elohimfest because it seems julie has added a day or two.

life is such things...

Post by **aliantha** » Tue Apr 26, 2011 12:17 pm

I remember that, Menolly!

I might have to send it around...

I'm back and sewn up from the removal of my fatty fat tumor on my fatty fat abdomen. I've not heard back from the doc about the lab results yet, but I'm not expecting any problems, from everything I have heard from everybody. I wanted to spend the day of the surgery knocked out only to occasionally wake and admire how wonderful the sheets felt (on percocet), but somehow it didn't pan out that way. I had a couple hours of sleep, and then it was time to wake up and eat something, which I didn't think I'd feel up to doing, but I did. I never got the wonderful euphoria I have gotten in the past from percocet, so I'm sad about that. I took a few the next couple of days, but for the most part, it only hurts now when I smack the incision area. Which happens pretty frequently due to it being a spot that seems to get a lot of abuse. That and my two year old child seems to be going through a phase where it is fun to pick up something sticklike (like pieces of his wooden train) and "stab" people with them. The one little fake sword fight appears to have led to this. I can't wait for him to learn a new game.

Glad you're feeling better, anyhow, Cag.

Well, Sorus, if the sock is not contained in an washer with infinite energy walls, there tends to be some 'tunneling'

Shame you observed its position so well, now we'll never know its momentum...

God, my head's about to explode... and the exam is on Friday...

I was sorely tempted to keep it - though it could have been a beacon or portkey sent by any form of interdimensional miscreants. Ye gods, I need a vacation, not just from my job but from life in general, and being abducted into the Grey Fees by aliens or wizards might solve some of my short-term issues, though in the long run, it'd be highly irresponsible. And I'm a responsible person. I'm responsible for bloody everything sometimes.

The ambient chaos should be at safer levels now, though one should always be careful.

Let me make the difference perfectly clear. Those who are to blame lose their jobs. Those who are responsible do not.
