Lost my voice
Hey kids… I’ve been sick the last couple of days. What’s more, I’ve lost my dsl connection. I just came into work at noon today, but I’m not sure that was the best idea. Anyway, that explains the silence. Now I’ll get back to the scads of emails I have to waiting for me. *cough*
Shock me shock me shock me with that deviant behavior.
So, tell me if this has ever happened to you. You are online, and you are trying to download some video of a sock puppet show you really miss, but can’t buy on dvd, because it’s owned by a greedy corporate conglomerate, and not the creators of the show, although they are trying to buy it back and when they do you will be more than happy to buy the dvd’s, all legal like… so, anyway, you download a little skit of this sock puppet show, and when it’s done, you click the QT file, which launches your browser and opens three tabbed pages, the first one on top is porn. And just when you are thinking, hey… I closed all my porn tabs, what’s up with that, the sound of a couple having screaming sex comes blaring out of your speaker, and startles you so much you fall out of your seat. It’s not the first porn page, the video has not started streaming, you close that tab. It’s not the 2nd page, nor the 3rd… it’s quicktime file you downloaded. That’s not a SOCK PUPPET!! You have been deceived. It’s a 20 porn trailer, but it’s not even good porn! Curses, foiled again.
No? Yeah, me neither.
Awww… this is one of those days that the pages of history teach us are best spent lying in bed.
Last week I had a baby cold. It never caused me to call in sick, but I did work from home one day. By the weekend I felt better. But then last night, I got the mommy [or daddy] cold… the grow-up cold. I was fine, and then an hour later I was feeling suspiciously borderline crappy, and an hour after that I was sick. I hate that. I feel bad because, while still feeling good, I was over at my cousin Kirsten’s house, playing with the baby. I was all over that baby. Blowing raspberries on him, pretending to eat his tummy, kissing his baby face, and the whole time, unbeknownst to me, I was incubating sick. I was borderline crappy driving home, and an hour after getting home, I was aware I have cold.
I’m bummed out! I hate being sick. And I really hope I didn’t get my cousin’phew sick!
Ok, I am posting a song for Chris, because it’s one of our favorite movies, Philadelphia Story, and I told him I would post it. I love this song. I think it’s very sweet.
I’m now a famous Hollywood bitch, I mean I had to sacrifice a small baby for Satan, but things are so much better now.
I meant to show you this yesterday. I sent this to everyone I know who has a baby.
Because this website, which is both terribly funny and terribly frightening, brought us several minutes of amusement yesterday. Evildeb is very upset her mother did not have access to this, when she was a child:
You know, it even looks a more than a little like her.
All this fun came to me via blog of a bookslut.
Drudgery and song
Once again, hell has frozen over and I am cleaning house. I’m working on the kitchen. I still haven’t finished the office, but a dirty kitchen is ickier. And it’s dirty. And messy. Both. I started at one end of the counter, and I am working my way around, cleaning surfaces as I clear them. That’s the way I like to clean, so I can see progress. I don’t just want to see bare counter top, I want to see bare and shiny counters!
Originally, I continued on like this, talking about cleaning, and I almost walked away in the middle of the post, I was so not entertained by it. The only thing less entertaining than cleaning, is reading about me trying to cleaning. So, instead I am going to post one of the greatest songs to clean along to EVER.
Lots of drama at my Place of Employment. We acquired a fairly good size company in the same realm we are in, and you know what happens when two big companies collide? Redundancy in staff. But, we heard tell of the best Xmas gift my POE has ever given us, only to receive emails telling us the shipment to Seattle offices was delayed. Once the other offices confirmed what we heard, we were sorely disappointed, and wanted our gift more than ever. Friday, some Executive types were up in Seattle for some Q&A, and Rockin’ Jody [did you know there is another Jodi at my POE? Have I mentioned that?] told me that he would pay me a US Quarter for every time I could work in the word “shuffle” into a question. A shiny Kansas State Quarter!
“Oooo… that’s my favorite one! It’s got a buffalo AND a daisy on it!” said Evildeb.
I didn’t do it. I’m not stupid.
All better…
I believe I have fixed my CSS issues in Firefox and IE for Windows. According to my crack team of beta testers, all looks as it should now.
Today was Super Casual Friday at work. Every day is casual day, so we had to step it up a notch. I wore my geek butt pants. Somebody said I needed to consult HR about them. I don’t know why… because they draw attention to my butt?
It has been brought to my attention…
That the new blog design does not look as it should in firefox, and even less like it should on IE for Windows….. should I even care about that? Guh. It looks fabulous in Safari, let me tell you what. Anyway, it’s not a new blog design if it goes perfectly, is it.
Paco and I got a pizza for lunch, and now people are raiding it. That last piece of pizza is MINE and I am taking it home for my dinner. Must go defend my food!
50 Word Fiction Friday Vol. 36
Hello, today’s 50 Word Fiction theme is the last sin in our Seven Weeks of Sin theme – Evildeb’s favorite sin – Anger.
Anger Management
Through a haze of dog hair floating in the air, the boy looked at his parents, and then down tot he electric razor in his hand. The dog happily wagged his now bald rump.“I’m sensing a lot of anger in this room. I probably need a time out, huh?”
New Winter Theme
Now with three column layout! I know Jack will like it, it’s blue.
Enjoy. Until I grow weary with winter and long for spring.
