    Courtney, that sucks, but better to know they're craptastic landlords now, rather than once you've entered a contract with him and they turn on their jerk meters for responding to your issue with the house.

    Fingers crossed that something good happens in the rental department....

    Still nothing on the job front for me, but I'm working plans and had a nice long chat with Mayday's mom.  Good stuff, even if the day didn't produce too much.  Hmmm, I should go plant the other half of the petunias, maybe....

    Courtney, that sucks

     

    Agree.  That's a complete and utter bummer. 

    Continued good vibes for all you job seekers. 

    I never did get into 'Lost'.  We watched the first season but never kept up after that.  I am bummed about '24' being done for good.  :(   I'll miss Jack Bauer and his improbabe abilities. lol

    Found my pom poms! Got the last pair at the dollar store... I guess our Targets have different things, Paige! Can't beat $1 though!

    I loved the first several seasons of '24' but the last couple have just been .... weird.  Plus it interfered with big bang theory, and BBT isn't on Hulu or any other sites, and I always forgot to watch 24 online before the next week.  Goofy shows, on at the same time!

    the baseball stadium around the corner is setting off fireworks, again, tonight. Benny thinks the house in under attack... Confused

     My monitor is being the bane of my day. Its refresh rate limit is supposed to be 60 hz. 60 hz makes it flickery, which bothers my eyes. If I override the default settings and bump it to 70 hz all is well with my eyes, but the monitor flashes black once in awhile while changing pages or something. Put it back to 60 and that issue goes away, but my eyes are again sad.

     I have Comcast for cable and every few hours a bar flashes on the screen that so and so is calling. Um, I don't have a home phone, so whos calling? Weird!

     Courtney that sucks. It's especially sucky that you have to go to the landfill state again.

    So, I went to meet a client today at the high school I went to in 10th grade before we split into two high schools. At that time, 9th graders went to Junior High. The librarian there was the librarian from my elementary school. I didn't talk to her, and I don't know if she recognized me. I think it's possible she did, but maybe she wasn't sure whether I was myself or my younger sister. A lot of people can't really tell us apart well, and considering I last saw her in elementary school, it's possible she didn't recognize me or couldn't tell which one of us I was. 

    Also, and I guess I should be happy about this, recently, people have not thought I was really young. However, they seem to think I am old enough to have kids, which I guess at 24 is true. In my mind though, I don't think I am old enough to have a 6 year old. I've been asked if I am the parent of one of my 6 year old client. On one hand, there's probably just as many ways as she looks like me as she does her mom. I don't remember how she was conceived, but I am pretty sure she isn't genetically related to her mom. 

    When I wrote back about what I wanted for my mentoring group, I said I preferred Thursday, but I could do Tuesday. I got assigned to a Tuesday group. Now I was asked if I could do Thursday. Now I'm not sure what I wanted to begin with is what I still want. If I stay on Tuesday, I know who I'm going to be with. If I agree to move to Thursday, I don't know those answers. Why couldn't I have just had what I wanted to begin with? Also, why couldn't people have submitted their  forms on time? Then there probably wouldn't be a need for this. Why doesn't someone else here tell me whether I should keep the known quantity, or change to the unknown? Maybe I should ask who I will be with on Thursdays, and decide from there? Do you think it would be rude? The person on Tuesdays is the person setting this up, so if I make my decision based on that, I feel like if I decide to move after knowing this, I will really be insulting her. However, I also feel like, if I chose to move, and get moved to someone I know and don't like, I'm going to really regret that too. Again, anyone who wants to tell me what to do, please feel free.

    Jackie, duct tape the planter to the shelf. Duct tape fixes everything.

    I have twice a day eaters. Bevo & Schatzi will puke if I they don't get two meals. I'm not a fan of cleaning up puke, therefore I feed twice a day.

    Courtney, I hope that you ripped the guy a new "bumhole." (I like that word btw.)

    I'll bet that, with a little creativity, pom poms could be "recycled" into tassels......

    One of my friends (ex friend) had her dog euthanized because she is stupid. I can't even elaborate further because I don't want to cry about it anymore.

    I am counting down to the three day weekend. I need something, & hopefully a three day weekend is it.

    I rented Dear John tonight. I haven't been paying one bit of attention to the actual movie, but dang, is Channing Tatum a beautiful man. *sigh*

    I rented Dear John today as well I'm about to watch it.

     Oh, I too am looking forward to a long weekend. My  normal day off is tuesday, so I have a four day weekend. I'm so, so excited. I'm saving up my vacation days for the end of the year, so I have no other way to get a break :p
