OK, so my sorry excuse for a joke didn't win any comments...I'm feeling the love...wah.....I guess if I go I won't be missed, sniff! = ) Alright, I'm just fishing for a lovefest... But enough about me! Where in the world is Shovelheat? Where did he go, when did he leave? I went to his blog and there's nothing there! When did this happened and how in the world did no one say something! Joe, I hope you're ok. I had no clue you were gonna go for good? Am I going to h...

Sometimes I feel like a Fraud. Fraud is perhaps not the right word to use as it implies that I’m a liar, or a fake or something negative. It’s just that I present this air of calm and peacefulness most of the time. As if all is well in my world when it’s really not. Most of what I deem as “my problems” is really not as catastrophic as I tend to think they are. Not compared to other people’s problems anyway. Mine are perhaps simpler, but they are mine and they do tend to make me worr...

Have you ever had one of those days, when you feel as if you’re wearing the wrong clothes and no matter what you do you’re not going to feel comfortable in them for the entire day? Well that’s what’s happening to me right now. I’m wearing the wrong clothes. Oh yes, they are mine, however, this is not what I wanted to wear today. I wanted to wear Thursday’s clothes. Do you know what I mean? The clothes you wear to work on the day before the last day of the week. You do know what...

I’m sitting at my office desk right now and it looks pretty cluttered. I have a poster board with pictures of family, and various telephone numbers and a print out reminding me to “Calm Down---Shut-up—And Quit Trippin”! Yeah, sometimes I need to be reminded! LOL! Then I have the various files sitting haphazardly awaiting my touch. I also have three framed pictures, one or two stuffed mascots, some figurines that were a gift from a client who visited with us recently – a coffee mug, I do...

Here's a jingle from me to you. [reposting from an email I received!] ______________________________________________ T'was the night of Thanksgiving, But I just couldn't sleep I tried counting backwards, I tried counting sheep. The leftovers beckoned The dark meat and white, But I fought the temptation With all of my might. Tossing and tu...

I like a nice warm bath. A nice warm bath with lots of bubbles. A nice warm bath with lots of bubbles that smell really good. A nice warm bath with lots of bubbles that smell really, really good! Har, har…let me stop! No really I do enjoy a nice bath. And especially when I take a nice warm, delicious smelling bath with my other half….well, need I say more?! However, I really, really, really, LOVE to take showers! A nice, long, warm, spa-like shower. It gives me time to reflec...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHRISTINE A.K.A. XTINE!!! Your Astrological sign says: Libra 23September- 23 October Always struggling to keep peace and harmony in their lives, Libras try ducking out of an argument, avoid taking a side in an argument or saying something that might hurt someone. They'd much rather switch that fight which leads them to be accommodating, diplomatic and solution seeking individuals. In order to keep the balance and peace in their lives they switch positio...

Potato chips have always been a favorite food of mine. I disliked that they’re so salty, although the salty can be good at times! I like to eat it although I don’t eat it too often. Once in a while I will eat it. Man we’ve become such Chicken Littles because of all the things that are not good for us but we love to eat them. Many moons ago we didn’t worry so much about what we eat, now because of our health we have to live a much healthier lifestyle and so we’re all encouraged to eat h...

“Have a happy period” so says the narrator (is that what the person voicing a commercial is called?) at the end of the Maxi Pad commercial. Are they kidding me?! Yeah Right! Let’s see….break out like a teenager! Cramps! Bloating! Cravings! Going to the bathroom eons of time in one day! More cramps….. More cravings….. Even more bloating…. PMS with major tude!!! Grrrrr!!! Snap!!!! Oh and let me not forget….more BM than you want to have…like taking a laxa...

Be warned that this may have you running for fresh air…… Letting one out or go as is the familiar term, can empty a room faster than anything else, except for the real thing of course – an actual bomb! Or make you the most unpopular person around! Wanna get rid of someone you don’t like hanging around you…just let it rip! It’s enough to send even a skunk running for cover!LOL! Of all the different variety there is though, the silent but deadly one is the fiercest! Being true to it...

Some people are just so rude and have no telephone manners. Cell phones are very useful for emergency purposes, keeping in touch with home and other stuff like that. At least that’s what I use mine for. I have nothing against cell phones because I do own one. However too many times people come into my offices for meetings and they absolutely have no manners! I have to wonder to myself if they don’t realize that they are being rude! Here’s this jerk, er, man who came to my office to m...

I read with a little sadness about what is happening to a lady who I knew distantly when I worked in New York, Brooke Astor. She’s a very wealthy woman and has made many contributions to different charities and universities and at the time was pretty active lady in her society. I even had the opportunity to meet her and she is a gentle soul. Apparently her son is accused of siphon off her money for his own interests. His own son accused him of not taking care of grandma. Now they a...

Have you ever wondered about some people’s signature, how they sign their name? I have! Yes, I have nothing better to do with my time uh?! Yeah right! I just wondered at it because I’ve seen two signatures where I couldn’t even make out the first names of the persons signing the document. What use is a signature if no one can even tell that it is you? I don’t understand it. I know signatures are unique, that’s what’s special about them. It’s your very own personal marker. Howe...

Fridays at work is supposed to be the laid back non hectic day right? At least most of the times. It’s the day before the weekend. Time to let that breath go and breathe a little! Or even time to really catch up on some of the stuff that 'you' have to get done since you've spent a week running around after other people! Oh no. It’s like some people decide that they are actually doing work on a Friday. It’s like they stroll through the rest of the work week and then comes Friday and ...

This must be a crazy day for odd news, or an odd day for crazy news, or I’m just finding the news that soothes my odd, crazy mood at the moment! One thing for sure, it’s making me feel better because I can’t help but laugh at some of these! I’ve listed the links below: Urine (again!) in coffee at work - Link Man on trial for computer theft, steals courthouse computers! - Link Man, drunk, goes into bears cave, got bitten, bites bear in retribution! - Link Ma...
