So I’m doing laundry. It’s what I do on Sundays. (Yes, it is magical). I heard a loose coin inside my washing machine so I went to fish it out while bracing one hand on the agitator. The top part of the agitator came off (the fabric softener part) and ACK it was covered in…
Month: January 2008
Have onesie, will travel…
Guess who I get to meet in February? If you guessed Gene’s best friend’s little boy, you guessed right! YES. Their Christmas present to us was to get us up to MD to visit and meet the baaaaaaby. (This is what two boxes full o’ Gymboree goodies get you – plus I just ordered a…
hummm….
Are laptops no longer made in silver? I’m cruising Dell’s website and they make ’em in pink, yellow, red, etc and standard black. Hmm. I figured silver was eternal. Gene’s new fancy pants computer is silver but freaking glows red – creepy.
Dubya-Twos
Hooray! My employer’s W-2 forms are in the mail, in the FedEx, or otherwise distributed. All 4000+ of them. YESSSS. That said, here are some of the annoying things about this time of year: 1) They are called W-2s, NOT W-4, not tax returns. Duuuuuubbbbbya-Twwwwwoooooos. 2) If you are a 30 year old man, do…
Happy Birthday!
Happy Birthday to you! Happy Birthday to you! Happy Birthday the Boooooy! Happy Birthday to you! (He’s 14 now).
Saw Juno today
You’ll never guess what movie Gene and I saw today. Oh, wait, you read the title of this post… So yeah, we saw it and loooved it. Accidentally (or maybe intentionally), the captions were on the entire time, so I got to read the movie while I watched it. I love to do that. It…
On being white trash…
So I’m trying to plan Valentine’s Day dinner for Gene and I, so I hit the Cheesecake City Daily News’s website to check out reviews. That led me to the websites for several of the city’s nicest restaurants. Blah blah blah cheese menu, blah blah blah yellowfin tuna, blah blah blah BLAH. Nothing interesting (this…
Do you know what’s delicious?
If you answered “Those french fried onion thingies”, you are SO right. Yum. I needed some for a recipe and purchased the bigger size can tomake sure I’d have enough. Had PLENTY. Enough to finish off the can before dinner even came out of the oven. Those things are awesome. Recipe was simple – 1…
you know what?
Work sucks. I hate the first quarter third half of the year. All 4000+ W2 forms need to be printed, folded and stuffed. Ideally by Friday. And New Boss is about to have kittens about it all. Good News: The company that provides support for our crappy payroll software yanked out $100,000 in allocated tips….
Ack, I’m sick!
I have a case of the Mondays! No really. I had an awesome weekend and now I have to ruin it by going back to work? Ugh, where all the salaried people are going to bitch at me because their vacation time is effed up changed. (Yeah, thanks Old Boss – she made some sort…
