Someday I’m going to start a category here called “Things I would have blogged if I had a smart phone”. I imagine that I’ll do this the day before I acquire a phone that will get me to the internet. Yesterday’s annoyances: 1) Got to work early, but later than I’d planned since I was…

Dilemna
Yes, I know how to spell* D-I-L-E-M-M-A. About 40% of the time on Babycenter the word gets misspelled as “dilemna” and it always makes me cringe. Where do these dingbats get an “N” sound??? So anyway, I have a dilemma. At my new job, I will have 2 weeks of vacation a year (plus sick…
Randomness
So, today I packed up the stash of baby clothes. I’m taking it with me to Indianapolis to pass to Brandy. It filled up a suitcase (once I included the clothes that I plan to wear on the trip!). Yes, I included all the penguin stuff. Somehow I ended up with two penguin Halloween costumes…
Tough Day…
So, today was a very tough day. First, I had to Google “how to write a resignation letter” (and yes, I wrote it at work because I am classy that way). Then I had to write a resignation letter. Then I had to accept the job offer from yesterday – via voicemail – and then…
OMFG
I was offered a job today. I have to answer them tomorrow. And I have no idea how I’m going to answer. Pros: 1) Company is in better financial shape than my current employer 2) Medical benefits are pretty much better (it’s high deductible, but the premium is entirely employer paid) 3) Commute is shorter…
Facebook, you jerk!
So I just checked my Facebook page and there’s a new feature that gives a user the chance to “like” things based upon other things that the user already “like”s. What did it have for me? “Fans of Kohl’s often ‘Like’ Walmart” – NO “Fans of Kohl’s often ‘Like’ Toys R Us” – HELL NO…
random thoughts…
First, I see that WordPress version 3.0 is available. Hold me, I’m scared. Oh, how I hope they will let me upgrade automatically. If this blog disappears sometime this weekend, assume that I had to do the tech stuff myself. Please light a candle for me 😉 Second, I wonder what Gene plans to cook…
it’s true, it’s true…
I have hives. Even a real live doctor agrees. She* even prescribed luscious Prednisone for me to take for the next 9 days along with some over the counter Zyrtec. So, I may be itchy, but (as I already said on Facebook) my house will be clean. As you may know – and I know…
Hive Mind…
Or, I have hives and YES I mind. Ugh. Woke up this morning with hives. I have never had them before in my entire life. Ick. Feel so gross. WebMD said to take an antihistamine and smear some hydrocortisone on the spots so that’s what I have done. If I don’t look at least 50%…
Travels with Laineyd…
Going to Indiana from approximately June 30-July 4. Yay! (However, I am not going to Arkansas as my grandfather’s wife’s granddaughter and her family are visiting right before I’d be there and that’s a lot of stress). (I will get to Arkansas, I WILL). (I’m not proud that I have been saying that since 2008)….
