Gene just laughed at Jon Stewart. Yes really.

Mahjobiscrappis: A New Chapter (?)
(The chapter, BTW, is #11 of the Bankruptcy Code. Chapter 11 is not as serious as Chapter 7 – it’s more a reorganization tactic than a death sentence, theoretically). So, fun is when your payroll provider calls you and says, “So I hear your company filed bankruptcy. How do you plan to pay for your…
Life Lessons
(By which I mean, “Things I just figured out that everyone else has known for years”) * If you are boiling water (for pasta, etc), fill the pan with hot water. (I was so thrilled when I figured this out last year, but it turns out I’d heard it on Hell’s Kitchen before that). *…
I need a hobby
I need something to do as a hobby. I like to read. I like to watch movies. I loooove to write (you don’t say, Elaine!). But I need a new hobby that’s not reading online baby forums, reading infertility/baby/mommy blogs*, looking at baby gear online. Plan B is over and it was all for nothing…
Where have I BEEN?
I guess it’s been awhile since I posted, huh? That said, my birthday weekend w/ Mom feels like it happened months ago. I think that part of why I haven’t written lately is that I am still upset that Kansas lost to Northern Iowa. I mean, Northern Iowa??? That game happened when Mom was in…
They say it’s my birthday
(da-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh) Well, okay, it’s actually not til Monday, but today was my last day of work. Until Tuesday, anyway (a girl can dream! Told Gene that if we won the lottery I’d be off work a lot longer and that my first phone call would be to Gwen and the second would be to Dr….
arrrrrrrrrrrrgh
Damn you Notre Dame, Vanderbilt, and Richmond*. Somehow we’re barely into the NCAA tournament this year and already my bracket is 50% wrong?????? WTF? (Seriously. I set up 3 brackets and all three of them are only right 5 out of 8 choices). UGH! * And Georgetown. BOOO.
What day is it?
At least a dozen times today I have wanted to call my mother and ask if she’s ready to visit us tomorrow. Sometimes it takes at least 5 minutes before I realize that today is Wednesday and she’s not arriving until Friday. In other news, I processed a bunch of I-9 forms (to make sure…
Let’s talk about something funner…
(Fact: When my little brother was little, he liked to say either “funner” or “gooder”. Mom tried to get him to stop but then one day – and for the record, I had to Google this because I thought perhaps I was dreaming this – Dolly Parton was on Pee-Wee’s Playhouse [do you see why…
TMI of the Day…
It has been 11 months since my last round of Clomid. There is absolutely no way in hell there is any of it left in my system. Why (why why?) am I still crampy half the month? (And it’s not because of the double shot of crazy pills either – that’s new as of February)…
