today i am trying to be a good employee. instead of the SUCKY one i was yesterday. i was constantly letting myself get distracted by my own stupid stuff. i spent a long time hunting down the identity of a new member of the brain. because i felt she was probably a canadian spy. and she WAS. it’s a long story. but basically someone in Canadian Deb’s family was checking up on what she was posting, making sure that she wasn’t saying anything about their significant other. which… frankly, we didn’t like. we deleted one post for her. and restricted the board to members only. but she used an alias, signed up, and started looking for more references to her s.o., pointing them out to deb yesterday. she wanted them removed as well. honey, PLEASE. that behavior is not ok. so, before she confirmed that she was, indeed, the new member, i did some nancy drewing on the ip address and matched to her isp. and so forth and so on. just so i could yell BUSTED and delete her ass. in my opinion, CanaDeb can say whatever she wants about her sister’s g.f. hell, i might say some stuff too. i wish i could remember her name. damn. i know it’s petty, but i really want to. i won’t…. but i’ll THINK about doing it.
the shame about this is that CanaDeb felt really bad that her sister and her g.f. read the stuff she wrote. but she was very upset and came to us to vent. and she specifically said that she was doing this, rather than unleashing on her sister. that’s what we are there for. her concerns and feelings were legitimate. so here’s deb feeling bad about asking me to delete a post, and feeling bad because i restricted the site, feeling bad because her sister et al. read the post.. just generally feeling bad. even tho we all told her to stop it. luckily, her sister’s extra sleuthing yesterday annoyed her. and we saw a spark of our sassy CanaDeb again.
i suppose a GOOD employee would not be updating her blog, but rather researching her little technical issues sent to her by her babytechs. and some consultant as well. and an escalation from god only knows where. that’s what i good employee would be doing. i
i leave you with another picture of a KITTIE IN A BONNET! this is my second favorite. Fee, i think these are from japan. the japanese love their pets. OH!! speaking of pets. one more story.
pru. you know what she did? i’ll tell you what she did. i was a little behind on the litter box. i admit it. i spaced. i was a lot behind. it’s got a dome lid, and it only smells when she poops, and then only temporarily. so you know what she did? Bitch PEED on my bed!! [is that how you spell the past tense of the verb To Pee? it doesn’t look right] anyway, she’s done that once before, a long time ago. and again, it was when i was ignoring my waste management duties beyond an acceptable limit. can you believe that? cats are smart. still. she’s lucky i had a clean set of sheets.

kittie pie!!!

bwahahahaaa! that just kills me. kittie pie.
fee says “it’s two of your favorite things!” she’s right. kitties. and pie.
lisa commented on my harrowing trip to the mall, by asking. “Did they have a computer store you could hang out in?”
the answer is, no. NOT YET!! but soooon… sooon my internet friends, apple will be opening an Apple Store right there in my mall. smack dab in b’square.
i think i should be there the moment they open. i wonder if they will have give aways? i’ll spend the night on the floor of the mall, in order to be there for the give aways. to show my brand loyalty.
how can you not love a company that’s done this? and i feel sorry for you internet friends, who are on windows. as most of you are, i believe. because right now… you cannot enjoy the brilliant new digital music store. but i can. 🙂

having only one entry allows some of the side panel info to slide over. under said one entry. it’s annoying.
therefore, this is a fake entry, to help deal with this issue.

haven’t had much to say….that’s why it’s been so quiet round here. plus, i’ve had a busy week. just…none of it was very interesting.
anyway, we just got this link on mr. snotty, so i thought i’d share with ya’ll.

hey, remember that email i got from burton, telling me to remove all rings from my middle finger? well, i got another brilliant email from him, that i must share with you.
Hi Jodi,
Occasionally we like to send fun and useful tips to the California Astrology Association’s clients. Here are a few lesser-known beliefs that you may find interesting:

• If a bachelor or maid is placed between a married couple at supper, he or she will be married within a year. [[a maid? he must be talking housekeepers because i KNOW no one would be stupid enough to call an adult, unmarried woman a MAID.]]
• When a newly married couple first enters their new home, the one who gets the left foot over the doorstep first will rule the show.
• Rubbing against a newly married couple is said to be infectious. [[isn’t that a real live fetish, with a name and everything? rubbing up against people?
• Seeing two crows in the morning will be bring surprises in the afternoon.[[my life should be a surprise party, then. because there are some damn obnoxious crows that live outside my window. i hate birds.]]
• Rocking an empty cradle will speed a baby into it. [[that, and unprotected sex]]
• Sitting next to an empty chair means another person is seeking you out.
• Snuffing out a candle within a minute of its being lit arouses sensual desires.
• Thinking of a couple while knocking over an empty bucket causes them to rethink their commitment.
• Putting your hand over your mouth while yawning keeps the Devil from getting in. [[bugs, as well.]]
• It is considered unlucky to give an umbrella as a gift.
• A guest who repeatedly refolds his napkin means your home will be blessed during the coming month.

how incredibly useful is that? i bet this is even more helpful than the whole ring thing. which never made a difference, by the way. my rings are back on my middle finger.

you should go watch this.
it’s awesome. and i will write more later.
