Seventy-five million years ago, my best friend Brandy gave me a t-shirt that says “I Think The Hell Not” in inch tall letters on the front and “Hell, Elaine Speaking” on the back in puffy red letters. The “N” in “Not” has fallen off and may or may not have been partially eaten by Betty….

A ringing phone is (almost) never a good thing…
So I’m sitting in my car at work on Thursday, harming no one, eating my bacon cheeseburger (health food!) and I hear my phone ring…’Rikki Don’t Lose That Number, It’s the Only One you Want (or Own, depending on what you hear), You can use if you feel better, when you get hooome’ Who the…
Mind if I talk about boobs for a minute? (look away, dad and Bill)
I have broken the underwire on my last favorite bra. Guess that means it’s time to replace it. Ugh. So I am shopping on figleaves.com and type in my size. There are 12 pages of options. Hooray! Oh, wait. HALF of them are nursing bras. Un-hooray! There is something about this whole thing that is unsettling…
Thunderbolt?
I have had the greatest (??) idea. Instead of the stupid newsletter that I was/am in charge of, we need… a company BLOG. A neat fancy one, linked up to the company’s website, to announce all the new exciting things we do. And plus, since it takes almost no time to write a blog post…
Cooked again…
Tonight, I made this salmon dish for dinner. Gene wanted fish or chicken for dinner, and he found the recipe. Plus I got flustered at the grocery store today (I was doing a shh! secret shop and my regular shopping at the same time) and bought the salmon early. Whoops. Anyway, I give it 4 stars….
Dirty Doings…
(Sorry…considered titling it Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap, but just couldn’t bring myself to it). I finally get my meeting with Big Boss tomorrow, supposedly first thing. Woohoo. Here are the points I intend to make: 1) I am concerned that my direct supervisor (New Boss) is not giving me the same treatment she is…
Soo…
How much longer is it until I stop almost asking Gene if he’s spoken to his mother lately? I did that yesterday (almost, thank heavens), despite the fact that Gene is up in OH right now finishing up some things for her estate.
Dumb, dumb, dumb…
When I got home last night, I fed the dogs a beef rib (short rib) each. They freaking love them and they get them about once a week. But when Gene’s out of town, they get 1 rib each every day to make up for all the treating they miss. So! I give the dogs…
A Very Important Question…
My laptop screen is in desperate need of a good wipe down. I’m not sure what my screen is made of, but it doesn’t look like Gene’s laptop screen. I think dusting it will do the trick, but my laptop is my favorite toy and I don’t want to risk ruining it. Seriously: if I…
Aaaannd….
Happy Birthday to Brandy’s older younger sister, whose birthday was in the past few days. I know it was recently. Whee! And also Happy Late Birthday to Don Henley, who is Older Than My Parents. And will be 60 next year. Holy Moly.
