I couldn’t get to my blog the last two days. Ugh. Apparently, Gene rebooting the wireless internet (or something – there are a lot of gizmos in his office) fixed it. Wheee! Anyway, I can finally see pictures on blogs, I can get to my blog and I have a better than average chance of…
Category: Life in Cheesecake City
Two Hour Delay, please
Cheesecake City finally has some shitty weather and what does my employer do about it? Not a damn thing. I keep calling and checking my voicemail in vain, hoping our HR Director (Old Boss) leaves the voicemail that says “Meh, it’s icy outside, come in later”. However, she 1) Has a 4×4 Jeep and 2)…
The 10,000 Steps
So, the brainiacs at the Diabetes Center told me I should walk 10,000 steps a day. I said, I walk 1.6 miles a day. Isn’t that like 80,000 steps? Turns out it’s only 4300-ish. Arrrgh. Why don’t doctors realize that before I embraced the whole “no chocolate*, no soda+, more water, more walking” lifestyle that…
Things that don’t happen in nature
I went to Target this week and spent $0. Not a thin dime. Really. I’m a little worried – I have Gene basically convinced that Target has a $50 cover charge. (Don’t worry – I’m sure that Gene spent that much at the gun store anyway…we now have a laser sight on one of the…
Random Thoughts
1) Gene will probably lose his job because I’m reading funny blogs while he is on a problem call for work. Whee! 2) Luckily, I am swaddled in my Slanket, so I can hide giggles in that. 3) Gene is also swaddled in his Slanket. (HEY WORLD…you think he’s Big and Bad-Ass but he’s wearing…
Is stealing from a blog a felony?
I hope not, because I lifted this from Erin’s. 1. What did you do in 2006 that you’d never done before? I know there’s something, I just don’t know what. Secret shopped, I guess. 2. Did you keep your new years’ resolutions, and will you make more for next year? My resolutions were to cook…
Back to work…
well, for a few minutes that is. I had a lunch date w/ D today and New Boss called me to ask a question so I volunteered to stop in to help out (the restaurant for lunch was only a few miles away from the office). Lunch was awesome – Mexican food at our favorite…
Awesome-O II, the conclusion
So, Awesome-O II is gone now. He never made it out of the cargo section of the Murano. Gene took him to our town’s Town Hall, which was locked up tight due to the holiday. Eventually, he found the local Police Department and they told him to take the dog to the Emergency Vet, which…
Happy New Year
Happy New Year, Party People. My resolutions are… 1) Spending Xmas 2007 knocked up, with my family and my in-laws at my house. 2) Lose more weight in anticipation of getting knocked up. 3) Write more. No, not here. 4) Get my toes done. Gene and I spent NYE 2006/7 right here at home, watching…
