Great googly moogly, it's August-New Beginnings

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

He's gonna wake up in a smoothie :lol: :lol: :lol:

stop uckin with mah shi! :lol:

Good morning, all.

Places fresh pot of coffee and jelly doughnuts on coffee table in center of the room.

It's Friday, y'all. And while that may be just the start of my working week, I know it signifies a break from the IT/secretarial/client hell you may live in. So, I say, put on your party shirt and get down!

(Somewhere in the back of my mind lurks a Xander quote, but I am not remotely able to dredge it out.)

*checks party shirt, which is full of baby drool*

Yay Friday. :D

Xander quote!!! (yeah, I'm coming up empty, too)

And it wasn't the one about the party in his eye socket. I wanna say it had to to with the word shindig. Crap. I hate this 40-year-old memory. Grrr. Argh. I'd spend mucho dinero for a penseive right now.

Was it something about a hootenanny?

Woop, no more work for a whole week. :D I know i just had a week off but I can't stand my office that much. *shrugs*

Speaking of which, I didn't tell you guys what happened yesterday... my line manager Denise fixed it that Lucilla has to leave our office and work across the corridor in Denise's office with her. Permanently. :D Oh joy and rapture. So when I go back to work on September 1st it'll be a much happier place.

Get in! 8-)

Oh, and should be having an interview for the church position on September 6th, but it's not finalised yet.

If I don't A) get a vacation soon or B) have a reduced workload, I think my head is going to explode.

:o

Selz, yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!

Seven, uh oh.....should we hide sharp objects?

Hey Gang, though LegoKing has been kind I can now say I'm back on my own computer. Have had a dickens of a time logging in - Matt my brain has dementia for passwords LMAO :o .

My laptop motherboard fried itself upon my return from Sydney last week - I blame the photos showing how TALL LegoKing now is :shock: . So, last night (Fri night) I went a shoppin & got myself a new laptop. YAY :D :D . For those interested it's a HP Artist Edition - the one with the dragon & swirl & face on the top. I didn't even notice that - I'm all about testing the keyboard and seeing if I can sit for hours upon hours typing or not. This one has a cool plastic/perspex/whatever the hell the material is, thing where the touchpad area is so it stays a little cooler & the keys are way cool (well, they will be once I get them under control & can type back at my usual pace :lol: ).

Oh & LegoKing to scare you all turned 14 today :shock: :? :shock: .When, how did this happen????? :lol:

SUPERSPY WROTE:

VALERI29 WROTE:Otts - You want to know what happened H2, et al? I decided putting myself through marriage once is enough. If anything ever happens to H1, I just plan to take on a succession of lovers...hopefully young and extremely well-built ones. :twisted:

I'm with you! Glad to see we're still thinking alike.

Nat - I only have one thing to say in answer to that...

*WEG*

*rugby-tackles Val to the ground and clmbs on her back*

Well helloooo mami, how's tricks? :twisted:

GLORI WROTE:Oh & LegoKing to scare you all turned 14 today :shock: :? :shock: .When, how did this happen????? :lol:

*faints*

That's as scary as No Nap starting school. :shock:

Morning all...

Another day of tech support. Oh well.

it's so fun and not scary at all when you get into the dark elevator and the power is out except the floor buttons.....so you have no bloody clue what floor you end up on till the doors open.

Sounds like the dream I had last night... I was in a skyscraper being evacuated because of a terror alert and everybody was fighting for a spot in the elevator. :shock:

Are you guys working today or is it some kind of holiday? :?:

It's August bank holiday here :)

No, next Monday is a holiday, it's Labor day.

Hey everyone

how is it going?

Hope everyone had a good weekend.

Otts - tech support is fun :P I've been dealing with IT all day getting a comp fixed. So much fun :P

SELZZZZZZZ!!!!! I missed you by a day! *pout*

I'm great! The kids go back to school next week and I'll have time again to hear myself think! How's you? :D

Val - school started today for my eldest! And the youngest starts preschool next week. Oh, two whole morning of quiet, childfree bliss. I love my kidlets but oh, to clean without it getting uncleaned, to fold laundry without little hands immediately unfolding it all. No one whining for juice or cheese sticks or fluffernutter sandwiches or endless games of Candyland!

I should probably stop now before sweet gets scared by this. ;)

NORA WROTE:it's so fun and not scary at all when you get into the dark elevator and the power is out except the floor buttons.....so you have no bloody clue what floor you end up on till the doors open.

I feel you there, Nora. This is why I hate elevators. One, okay two, too many so fun and not scary adventures. Hey, at last it didn't ride up and down the 18 story building for 20 minutes only to let you off on the 13th floor. :D

Hey, um, why did you get into the dark elevator anyway?

Good morning all.

*sets down a plate of maple donuts and preps coffee*

*eats all the doughnuts while Otts isn't looking*

Well that's inconvenient! :evil:

*Otts sets out to Tim Hortons in the USS Faith to pick up more donuts... tries to guess a flavor Selzie won't like*

Hello Hello.

How is everyone today?

Good luck with that Otts! 8-)

Hiya Sweet how are you doing? How's that babeh?

NORA WROTE:Good luck with that Otts! 8-)

BAAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

*sprays Brit repellent on the new batch of donuts*

Curious....what exactly is "Brit repelent?"

Hmmm. Brit repellant. Do we really want to resort to using repellants?

Otts - those wouldn't by any chance be TimBits, would they? That was the first thing we did in Canada. We'd been driving awhile (via Detroit) and were peckish.

Nora the babe is doing great. He's a great baby. So far lol

Brit repellent... aka eau de Spice Girls. ;)

Seriously though... Tim Hortons is amazingly tasty. I don't know what kind of drug they put in their donuts. :P

I drink my coffee out of my Tim Hortons travel mug every day :D

Sweet, that's great! :D

OTTS WROTE:*sprays Brit repellent on the new batch of donuts*

*lets the small Danish part of herself (that's Denmark, people!!) eat the doughnuts* :twisted:

Mmmmmm maple flavoured donuts. *ponders the idea...realises :o it's a Good Thing Selz ate them - they'd have evil animal products* the animals hate me :roll:

Sweet glad to hear all is fine on the baby front. My 'baby' is sick home for the week & has just spent his 14th b/day throwing up in the midst of a 4 day fever :shock: .

Glori - Oh, that bites... or perhaps, in this case, blows. What a sucky way to spend a birthday.

Good morning.


Hope everyone is having a good week.

Glori -Hope your baby feels better soon. What a sucky way to spend a birthday.

I missed the doughnuts. damn :P

Morning,

I had 6... count 'em.... *SIX* hours of meetings yesterday.

le sigh

*sees Fiat's sigh and raises her a double sigh*

Our Prime Minister has decided he wants to call an election next week... so that last day of vacation I was planning for Friday is down the drain... and maybe some working from home is in the cards for Labor Day :(

so much for the four day weekend... maybe I should just throw in the cards, too, and go to that work meeting at 6:30pm tonight. :roll:

I think I'm going to wallow in "wedding dreaming" stuff today.

I wanna go home

I'm already bored on this week off. I just wish my life was..... completely different. :roll:

Thanks Lone & Super. I'm over the sleep deprivation (mine & his :lol:). Happy is this morning is his first time of "gee I feel somewhat human" - you know after you've been off the planet not well for ages. So here's hoping it's a permanent corner turn!

Snap elections in Canada - you lucky things you :P.

GLORI WROTE:Snap elections in Canada - you lucky things you :P.

Yeah, two years ago our Prime Minister campaigned on the promise that he'd adopt a fixed-election-date bill if he was elected... and he did... and now he's trampling his own bill and calling a snap election because he feels the opposition parties are making Parliament "dysfunctional". In other words: "The opposition isn't letting me have my way, and they're so childish they want to use House committees to inquire on the way my party broke the finance rules during the last election, so we must go to the polls!"

And because we Canadians are gullible, we're going to swallow it, hook, line and sink.

Good morning all, btw. ;)

Your system is still better than ours. Elect an asshole for four years and get stuck with him because no one has the balls to seriously call for impeachment. :roll:

Morning. 8-)

Yeah yet if someone other than his wife touched his penis, it would've been over :x

No shit. :roll:

Where's the Timbits? Isn't it Otts' duty as a Canadian to provide us with Timbits? :P
