Today is a chocolate pudding pop and going for a walk kind of day.
Too bad work has other plans for me.
Might be a little quiet but I am reading everyone’s comments/nipples.
I initially read that as chocolate poop and was going to suggest you eat more roughage.

CW: House finale
No more House, no more fake US accent, yah!
Heh. 🙂
Everyone: I’d like to politely request no spoilers on this board for both the House and Awake finales, please. I intend to catch up on both of those shows.
This being the last series of House was hardly a big secret Amy.
I knew that. I just posted that because I didn’t want to know the specifics of what happened in the finale. 🙂
Fine.
I won’t tell you about them both being a dream Larry Hagman was having.
I do four bank recs daily. The person who was suppose to cover for me while I was away on Friday decided he’d only do one. *sigh*
OMFG MUST HAVE!
Of course I already have all the issues, but…
Gah. I never should have started watching an anime about mahjong. Now I have to learn how to play the game. And no, I’m not talking about the solitaire version. ;P
I’ve heard you can catch cold playing Strip Mahjong.
Cough
I wish we lived close to you guys! We have a set and nobody to play with!
B&J’s Cookie Dough ice cream is great for comfort eating.
Maybe I’ll tell my husband that. I could use some ice cream.

Yes!!! Hubby is on his way home. Going to take a break for five minutes to start some rice.
Then more work
Then supper
Then even more work. *sigh*

Keep me posted if you see it….
Nerve….Racking 2 minutes…..
Oh, why hello fellow hockey fan
Oh we are going to overtime on the PP ya fucksticks!
I need some Xanax. I cant hang
Ya can! I only wish my team could be in this position
This game… is fucking phantastic
Holy crap. I love this & I despise this.
love. And I envy you.
OMG Rozsival… youre better than that. Arent you?
You mean, Chinadoll Roszival…
Speak of the devil…
Holy gods! Pow!
Goddamn it.
Hurts now. Worth it for the future.
Wow. Hold your head up Yotes. Was a fuck of a year. One you deserved. You ran into a buzzsaw of a team.
I hope the Kings get annihilated in the finals. Yet I have a fantastic respect for them
I might actually have to root for this band of thugs if the Rangers advance.
Yum. I brew pretty good coffee at home, but this is dang good. A treat for myself because I had fasting bloodwork this morning.
I hate fasting blood work. I always try to have them first thing in the morning so I’m not stupidly hungry when they are done.
Yep, I lined up with all the grey-hairs at 6:50 for a race to the lab when the doors were unlocked (I won).
I just did what every accountant does in their working career – shredded a bunch of paper. :face:
Now going to scan some documents
My work is so exciting.
*sigh*
I went to Ontario last month to train to take over some work for someone who was laid off. I discovered an error in the work I took over. I have a feeling, when my boss gets back from a seminar she’s at today, I’ll be backtracking this other girls work to find where the error originated and have to fix it.
I really don’t want to do that.
I’m trying to decide if I want to be evil for lunch and get some fast food.
Hubby gave me heck yesterday because I worked through lunch and didn’t eat anything between breakfast and dinner. Even though I still have about 2,500 hundred contracts to review, I guess I better eat something midday.
Morning Pan people. I’m only 3 days behind in my work now. Yay!
Damn, didn’t know IrOn Sky was playing at this cinema, damn and blast.
I’ll get your train
In the UK it’s only being released for ONE day..grrrr!
Good try Yotes, hell of a season. If the Devils make it past the Rangers, I’ll be cheering for them. If the Rangers make it through I route for the Kings, but honestly, I don’t think anyone can stop the Kings now.
I guess a number of hubby’s coworkers found out and booked tickets to the same showing. Hubby comes home last night and asked sheepishly if it was ok that 10 or 12 teachers would be joining us. Am I really so moody and intimidating that he would think I would be upset that his coworkers think enough of him they want to join him in off hours activity? Personally, I take it as a compliment.
You will all be happy to know I’ve reached the half way mark on my stupid contract review
Well, I’ve decided. I’m making a hot dog for lunch, then will be evil for supper.
Then supper will be a devil dog.
This may be old news since it’s been around for at least a year, but I may have to play this 🙂 http://www.socksinc.com/

CP: Losing My Religion – Lacuna Coil
mmmm. my computer cd is not burning properly. I got a new album from ITunes and wanted to burn it to disc. It said it failed and maybe I should try calibrating the disc first. How do I do that?
Utton.Say what? I’d try using a different CD.
Failing that, right click on the drive in My Computer,click the Hardware tab, and click the “Troubleshooting”
Success! It’s amazing what a little compressed air can do.
Yes, utton.
If I can go mmmm in front of my sentence, you can say utton :cheerful:
And for those keeping track, I’m at contract 2,296
But! I can’t work late tonight. Since hubby isn’t going to be home, I’m having supper with my Boo.

Finally saw the youtube video on Elementary Van posted. There are a number of shows that I’m interested in for next year including 666 Park Avenue and The Neighbours
Reading time!
The Arm and the Stone – Victoria Strauss
The Google Doodle honors the Moog today. They should have gone interactive with this one.
It is!
“QWERTY” row of keys = white keys, number row = black keys. (Or you can click on the keys.) All the knobs work, too. Fun!
I haven’t read any of the comics. I wanted to enjoy the show for what it is trying to do.
I’m a big fan of the comics. You might like em, ditto!
EssBee really turned me on to the comics. I dont know if I’ll go back to the show now. The are SO FUCKING FANTASTIC and can do so very much more than the show can
That’s exactly why I’m avoiding them for now. I’m enjoying the show, so I don’t want to torpedo myself.
Wouldn’t The A-Team or MacGuyver have been a more accurate reference? Dare I wonder aloud if the Gizmodo article writer had even been born when those shows were on?
Very probably.
The original TFOTP was in the 60’s, way before A-Team and MacGuyver.
Plane crashes in desert, survivors build smaller plane from wreckage of original plane, and escape the desert.

So you’ve never seen John Waters’ Pecker?
I wasn’t going to stand in line. 😉

CP: I Want Everything — Cracker
Our 19 year old nephew just posted on FB that he had done the research and has determined that Obama is either the anti-christ or the last sign that the anti-christ is approaching.
Not true. I’m the anti-christ, Obama is just a poser.
Well, I’m more of a live and let live, anti-douche bag kind of guy, but the qualifications for being labeled the anti-christ are a lot lower theses days, so there you go.
there you go!
Of course the antichrist isn’t suppose to admit they are the antichrist. Dammit!
Yeah, you have to work on fire-and-brimstone delivery. 😉
This antichrist business is a lot harder than I expected.
Then who’s the Uncle Christ?
I think in this situation, he has two anti-s.
Ive heard of Uncle Cracker and U.N.C.L.E. but never Uncle Christ.
Not that anybody wants to know but I’ve reached 3,695 in my stupid contract review. I may even get it done today.

Yes I want to eff’n save my work! What an idiotic question.
Is it me or did nobody else think “aliens” when they thought of a Battleship movie? I personally saw something more WW2 related
Yes, but this is the right way to do it, when making a feature film based on a board game. “Monopoly” needs to be about aliens smashing Atlantic City to pieces and charging us to live in their little green buildings. The next “Clue” remake needs to be about aliens invading the Earth. . . using candlesticks in the Study. And then the Mousetrap film. . .
“Operation”
Or was that rebooted as “Saw”?
Was that Megan Fox, ala 14yrs old?

Big indie game sale on the app store (as well as Steam and other services):
I now wish this horse’s name was Kelis and not Argenta…
While elevated carbon dioxide is associated with “milkshaking,” the officer agreed with O’Neill that his horse Argenta had not been fed a mixture of bicarbonate of soda, sugar and electrolytes that enhances performance and combats fatigue. The officer did not indicate what might have caused the overage.
“I’m gratified that the CHRB found that I did not ‘milkshake’ a horse or engage in any intentional conduct that would result in an elevated TC02 level,” O’Neill said.

Got soaked on the way in. Saw a car that had been flipped upside down presumably because of the downpour.
It’s been an adventurous morning. Let’s hope that isn’t an omen for the holiday weekend.

It’s a beautiful sunny day, for a change. The weather, at 8C, is quite nice. I think I’ll go for a walk. :happy:
CP: Hitchin’ A Ride — Green Day
Finally getting off my lazy butt and installing iTunes again. I hadn’t bothered to reinstall it after the last time I had to wipe and reinstall Windows. I’m doing it now because the Apple software updater prompted me to get the latest version of Quicktime, and iTunes was there as an option. I checked that box because the 7th annual Altador Cup event starts June 1st over on Neopets, and I have a playlist for that event that I created in iTunes, and I want to listen to it again.
Lovely walk. The fountain was turned on in the park. The bunnies were out in force today (the fuzzy ones with cotton tails, I mean). Very peaceful.
I think I’m going to have a grilled tomato and cheese sandwich for lunch today.
I’m not machine / Or machine,
I’m just something in between.
Tomorrow we get to go to some sort of gala for hubby’s school system. There will be a silent auction and the Premier will be there. I’m underwhelmed.
The tickets were stupidly expensive but we have to go. All admin staff were “strongly encouraged” to attend.
I picked up a book at the library and read the inside flap to get the plot. Sounded interesting so brought it home. Turns out that this is the sequel, the plot inside the flap was for the first novel. Now the first novel is not owned by my library. Trying to decide if I try to watch the movie version of the novel or try to find a used copy. Publisher, why the heck did you not say this was the sequel and have the plot of this one on the flap?
/End Rant
I hate it when that happens. Too many stores/libraries/etc. seem to have book 2 or 3 of a series but not book one. Why?
Good lord my report is taking its’ sweet ass time generating.
Looking forward to this Friday, Pannites– its *my Memorial Day* as I am going to slug away three 12hr shifts this holiday weekend.
On tap today– ACLS Research project (we get to run life-saving codes on dummies) and then off to grill steaks and veggies w/ my fave peeps (which includes the Wee People.)
To cap it off, board games and dessert and probably adult beverages after the Wee peeps hit the sack
Happy Friday and holiday weekend everyone. Be safe & enjoy your loved ones.
Hopefully the dummies will be well compensated for their troubles.
have a super weekend Pixie
I do believe I’m finished my work for the day.

Amazon is having a “Favorites of 2012” sale. There are a bunch of albums for $3 in the digital store.
I’ve seen 8 of them but there are 3 that I have always wanted to see and just haven’t gotten around to.
Just saw the latest Wes Anderson movie.
Quirky, just like all the others.
Also bought an Airport Extreme router.
May make an art installation out of my previous routers..
*LIKES* this idea. Especially if it is mobile.
William Shatner hosting ‘Have I got News For You’ was rather fun.
So, I took the kids to the Games Workshop store, where they got a free miniature painting demo. We now have an amazing little Space Marine and an Aragorn. I’m afraid they may be hooked. . . Gulp.
Time to get a second job!
Nobody said growing geeks was a cheap hobby 🙂
^This
Trust me Jack. It is like crack. Hubby recently got me hooked into buying some of the fantasy stuff, strictly for painting, not for gaming. I wanted to buy a paint stand so counted the paints I had. 57! How the heck did I suddenly get so many paints?
I did something very stupid (sort of). I was cooking with jalapenos as preparation for dinner tonight. I was sure I washed my hands thoroughly but I must have been wrong. Rubbed my eye. Now my eye is burning. Silly me :silly:
I had a friend that was eating habeneros. He came back from the bathroom cringing, saying, “Wash your hands carefully *before* you go.” lol
I hate it when both living and dead taunt each other
Don’t you just hate it when a breeze flickers your candles?
I hate it when spirits try to override each other
I also hate it when pushy men try to take my ouija board
Yup, blood dripping on the floor when nobody is present also bugs me. I hope you don’t expect me to clean up that mess
And I’m definitely not cleaning up the mess caused when the old lady was killed by a flying ouija board
I would never attend a boring university lecture on spirits and ouija boards
And I really hate it when movies start showing a serene scene and then pop in a gory one just for the jump factor. It’s a cheap shot
And why are beautiful old house also all haunted? I would love a house like that… Without the evil spirits and stuff
It’s really nice when a family member dies and the house is impeccable. Beds are made, rooms dusted. Really good of them to leave things that way
Why are kids always so creepy?
Know it all friends who think you need closure are annoying
I’m also not a big fan of people who ask to stay after they’ve already moved all their stuff in
Or how about people that rent you a room in their boarding house then tell you you probably shouldn’t stay ther. Do they want my money or not?
Awkward house parties with forced conversations are always fun
I also find ghosts very inconsiderate. They keep turning lights on. It’s not like they pay the electric bill
I also have a thing against nosy friends who feel the need to nose around in your attic. Mic they see something, it’s their own damn fault
I also don’t like it when creepy dead people watch me as I’m recording
I also dont like it when people take things from my attic without my permission then insist we all play with the item he took
Anyone who says “I’m not an expert but…”
Creepy gargoyles aren’t my favourite thin either
I also don’t like, when you finally do contac someone from the other side, they just talk nonsense
I also hated it when the room fills with creepy dead people
Why do ghosts like to attack you with flying stuff. It’s just mean
Dippy university profs don’t work for me either
And why do ghosts alway lock you I. Or out of rooms? That’s just rude
And how do ghosts always know a person’s name? It’s not like they’ve been formally, or informally, introduced
And how is it, spirits are able to make people (usually the dippy female) so obsessed with something
And the footsteps upstairs when I’m trying to sleep. Seriously, how rude can you get?
And dreams. Why do they always have to be of death, gross things, insects, etc. what about happy things like puppies, kittens, posies, and stuff like that?
And under rude, why can’t I have phone connection? Maybe I have people to talk to
And basements… Don’t even get me started on ghosts obsession with basements
Although, advanced ghosts that know how to use wire cutters and such could be ok if they can fix the wiring they’ve obviously messed up
And pentagrams. What’s the deal with pentagrams?
And altering photographs. Really?
And then there’s the people. Really, splitting up is not the thing to do when in a tense situation
And when I’m in a bookstore, mind your own business. Just because I’m talking about evil spirits and stuff to the clerk, doesn’t mean I want you to listen in.
Why don’t any of the book store clerks I talk to have as more knowledge than I could ever want?
Why are all reporters pushy and dumb?
And mirrors. Seriously, my reflection should never, ever stop doing what I am.
And stop whispering! If you have something to say, than just say it!
Who knows where the time goes?
Why do birds suddenly appear?
Lo will get jealous
Great gams, see
CW: Awake Finale
Sad to see this show go, deserved a second season.
While I never got into that one myself, my wife will certainly agree with you.
Agree!

Yes, sorry Van! Haven’t DL’d yet, but will this evening. Mwah!
Hmmm, there once was a woman from Venus….
Well, I never much got into this one either, but apparently Sanctuary has also been canceled by SyFy.

I went to Ontario last month to train to take over some work for someone who was laid off. I discovered an error in the work I took over. I have a feeling, when my boss gets back from a seminar she’s at today, I’ll be backtracking this other girls work to find where the error originated and have to fix it.
I really don’t want to do that.
I’m trying to decide if I want to be evil for lunch and get some fast food.
Hubby gave me heck yesterday because I worked through lunch and didn’t eat anything between breakfast and dinner. Even though I still have about 2,500 hundred contracts to review, I guess I better eat something midday.
Morning Pan people. I’m only 3 days behind in my work now. Yay!
Damn, didn’t know IrOn Sky was playing at this cinema, damn and blast.

So we’re seeing Sweeny Todd live on Friday (http://www.vertigotheatre.com/main/page.php?page_id=52)
I guess a number of hubby’s coworkers found out and booked tickets to the same showing. Hubby comes home last night and asked sheepishly if it was ok that 10 or 12 teachers would be joining us. Am I really so moody and intimidating that he would think I would be upset that his coworkers think enough of him they want to join him in off hours activity? Personally, I take it as a compliment.
You will all be happy to know I’ve reached the half way mark on my stupid contract review
Well, I’ve decided. I’m making a hot dog for lunch, then will be evil for supper.
Then supper will be a devil dog.
This may be old news since it’s been around for at least a year, but I may have to play this 🙂

mmmm. my computer cd is not burning properly. I got a new album from ITunes and wanted to burn it to disc. It said it failed and maybe I should try calibrating the disc first. How do I do that?
Utton.Say what? I’d try using a different CD.
Failing that, right click on the drive in My Computer,click the Hardware tab, and click the “Troubleshooting”
Success! It’s amazing what a little compressed air can do.
Yes, utton.
If I can go mmmm in front of my sentence, you can say utton :cheerful:

But! I can’t work late tonight. Since hubby isn’t going to be home, I’m having supper with my Boo.

I haven’t read any of the comics. I wanted to enjoy the show for what it is trying to do.
I’m a big fan of the comics. You might like em, ditto!
EssBee really turned me on to the comics. I dont know if I’ll go back to the show now. The are SO FUCKING FANTASTIC and can do so very much more than the show can

Wouldn’t The A-Team or MacGuyver have been a more accurate reference? Dare I wonder aloud if the Gizmodo article writer had even been born when those shows were on?
Very probably.
The original TFOTP was in the 60’s, way before A-Team and MacGuyver.

CP: I Want Everything — Cracker
Our 19 year old nephew just posted on FB that he had done the research and has determined that Obama is either the anti-christ or the last sign that the anti-christ is approaching.
Not true. I’m the anti-christ, Obama is just a poser.
Well, I’m more of a live and let live, anti-douche bag kind of guy, but the qualifications for being labeled the anti-christ are a lot lower theses days, so there you go.
there you go!
Of course the antichrist isn’t suppose to admit they are the antichrist. Dammit!
Yeah, you have to work on fire-and-brimstone delivery. 😉
This antichrist business is a lot harder than I expected.
Then who’s the Uncle Christ?
I think in this situation, he has two anti-s.
Ive heard of Uncle Cracker and U.N.C.L.E. but never Uncle Christ.

You can blame the Anti-Rhetro-Christ for this. 😉
NO!
The targeted market is either 8yr old girls or the entire Japanese population
Or Japanese with the mental capacity of 8 year-olds? 😉
So the condoms are flavored like hello kitty. Does that mean they taste vaguely of sardines and shame?
Tetris the movie:
http://m.kotaku.com/5913078/the-world-is-under-tetromino-attack-in-tetris-the-movie
Already more entertaining than “Battleship”.
Is it me or did nobody else think “aliens” when they thought of a Battleship movie? I personally saw something more WW2 related
Yes, but this is the right way to do it, when making a feature film based on a board game. “Monopoly” needs to be about aliens smashing Atlantic City to pieces and charging us to live in their little green buildings. The next “Clue” remake needs to be about aliens invading the Earth. . . using candlesticks in the Study. And then the Mousetrap film. . .
“Operation”
Or was that rebooted as “Saw”?
Was that Megan Fox, ala 14yrs old?

I now wish this horse’s name was Kelis and not Argenta…
While elevated carbon dioxide is associated with “milkshaking,” the officer agreed with O’Neill that his horse Argenta had not been fed a mixture of bicarbonate of soda, sugar and electrolytes that enhances performance and combats fatigue. The officer did not indicate what might have caused the overage.
“I’m gratified that the CHRB found that I did not ‘milkshake’ a horse or engage in any intentional conduct that would result in an elevated TC02 level,” O’Neill said.

Got soaked on the way in. Saw a car that had been flipped upside down presumably because of the downpour.
It’s been an adventurous morning. Let’s hope that isn’t an omen for the holiday weekend.
So… Oklahoma is nice and moist.
I do so love my morning breakfasts in bed.
The service at this joint is pretty amazing. 😉

It’s a beautiful sunny day, for a change. The weather, at 8C, is quite nice. I think I’ll go for a walk. :happy:

Finally getting off my lazy butt and installing iTunes again. I hadn’t bothered to reinstall it after the last time I had to wipe and reinstall Windows. I’m doing it now because the Apple software updater prompted me to get the latest version of Quicktime, and iTunes was there as an option. I checked that box because the 7th annual Altador Cup event starts June 1st over on Neopets, and I have a playlist for that event that I created in iTunes, and I want to listen to it again.
Lovely walk. The fountain was turned on in the park. The bunnies were out in force today (the fuzzy ones with cotton tails, I mean). Very peaceful.
I think I’m going to have a grilled tomato and cheese sandwich for lunch today.

Tomorrow we get to go to some sort of gala for hubby’s school system. There will be a silent auction and the Premier will be there. I’m underwhelmed.
The tickets were stupidly expensive but we have to go. All admin staff were “strongly encouraged” to attend.
I picked up a book at the library and read the inside flap to get the plot. Sounded interesting so brought it home. Turns out that this is the sequel, the plot inside the flap was for the first novel. Now the first novel is not owned by my library. Trying to decide if I try to watch the movie version of the novel or try to find a used copy. Publisher, why the heck did you not say this was the sequel and have the plot of this one on the flap?
/End Rant
I hate it when that happens. Too many stores/libraries/etc. seem to have book 2 or 3 of a series but not book one. Why?
Good lord my report is taking its’ sweet ass time generating.
Looking forward to this Friday, Pannites– its *my Memorial Day* as I am going to slug away three 12hr shifts this holiday weekend.
On tap today– ACLS Research project (we get to run life-saving codes on dummies) and then off to grill steaks and veggies w/ my fave peeps (which includes the Wee People.)
To cap it off, board games and dessert and probably adult beverages after the Wee peeps hit the sack
Happy Friday and holiday weekend everyone. Be safe & enjoy your loved ones.
Hopefully the dummies will be well compensated for their troubles.
have a super weekend Pixie
I do believe I’m finished my work for the day.
Diablo 3 here I come!
CD : great divide yeti
On tap, delicious 🙂
Amazon is having a “Favorites of 2012” sale. There are a bunch of albums for $3 in the digital store.

CP: Coincidentia Oppositorum — Master Musicians Of Bukkake
Of Bukkake?
Yeah, I know. I didn’t name the band. Still, the song is pretty good.
Oh I think it is an okay name, I’m just trying to figure out what a master musician of bukkake would sound like.
Like Acid Jizz
Or Spunk Rock?
A free form, Jam session.

Greg Rucka on writing strong woman characters:

I’m tempted, if only to hide from the weather:

Of the 30 movies they show, I’ve seen seventeen. I guess I should join you to catch up on my video history
I’ve only seen 13.
I have only seen 10. What bothers me is that I have not even heard of some of these. Audition? Three Colors Red?
Audition is a Japanese horror/thriller. You can watch it on CrunchyRoll.
http://www.crunchyroll.com/audition/audition-movie-audition-542336
Three Colors: Red is part of the Three Colors series. It’s from France and came out in the 90s.
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0111495/
I’ve seen 8 of them but there are 3 that I have always wanted to see and just haven’t gotten around to.
Just saw the latest Wes Anderson movie.
Quirky, just like all the others.
Also bought an Airport Extreme router.
May make an art installation out of my previous routers..
*LIKES* this idea. Especially if it is mobile.
William Shatner hosting ‘Have I got News For You’ was rather fun.
So, I took the kids to the Games Workshop store, where they got a free miniature painting demo. We now have an amazing little Space Marine and an Aragorn. I’m afraid they may be hooked. . . Gulp.
Time to get a second job!
Nobody said growing geeks was a cheap hobby 🙂
^This
Trust me Jack. It is like crack. Hubby recently got me hooked into buying some of the fantasy stuff, strictly for painting, not for gaming. I wanted to buy a paint stand so counted the paints I had. 57! How the heck did I suddenly get so many paints?
Anyway, currently working on this: http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/catalog/productDetail.jsp?catId=cat440005a&prodId=prod1530028a
Admittedly, I never follow their recommended colour scheme.
Ryah, you’ll have to post pics when you’re done!
We’ll have to start slowly. Reeeeeeeallllllllyyyyy slowly.

I find your proposal intriguing and wish to subscribe to your newsletter.

Saw this tweet, if true it’s rather sad:
@dcurtis: SpaceX’s entire history, including rocket design, testing, and launch operations, has cost less than Facebook paid for Instagram.
Crap joke for the day (do a google for Maltesers):
Went to weight watchers last night.
Opened a packet of maltesers and threw them on the floor.
The best game of hungry hippos I’ve ever seen !!!!
I don’t have to do a Google search, we have Malteasers here in Canadaland.
Don’t Bogart my Maltesers?

Diablo 3 was slow on my laptop. I’m installing it on my gaming PC to see how much better it does.
Off to see this show tonight:

Billiards:

Just don’t scratch.
But it’s so itchy!
Cream?
Playing with Poison Ivy?
Crap joke for the evening:
I’d been seeing this Nurse for a few days and we finally got round to shagging…
As I stripped off I said to her: “You must have seen a few cocks where you work?
how do you rate mine?”
She said: “It’s just slightly bigger than most i see.”
I said: “Thanks, what sort of nursing do you do by the way?”
“I’m a Midwife.” she said..
Thats the way!
you like it?
Diablo 3 is super smooth on my gaming PC. That’ll learn me.
I think two separate resume and cover letter revisions is enough for one afternoon. Off to answer some job-related emails.

Time for my second run through ME3.

lol I just thought it was a stupid article/non-story to begin with.
Colin Campbell calling someone’s actions unprofessional?

Time to switch the brain off, at the cinema to see Men in Black 3.
Morning Pan
I woke up with a crick in my neck. I’m not a happy bunny.
/waits patiently for someone to replace c with a p.
Nepk?
Don’t look at me. I’m not that short, nor is my husband that tall.
I added some photos to the Flickr pool.
Nice ones!
Awww, you disabled the download. How can I grab them to put on my Deadpan ephoto frame?
Sorry, bunny. I can fix that.
Apparently, I can’t fix it since I have a free account. I’ll be happy to email full size copies to anyone that wants particular images.
Looks like the aquarium was fun?
I have a lot of photos from there. I really didn’t post many. lol
How can I see the deadpan Flickr?

Planes!
I enjoyed that movie.
Slow moving, but enjoyable and the air battle sequences are cool.
Agreed. A number of people don’t like the ending, but I didn’t mind it.
I had forgotten the 360 wifi adaptor supported the ‘a’ wifi standard.
Enjoying almost interference free streaming from Netflix.
Crap! even downloads from MS go faster, shows how crowded the 2.4GHz band is where I live.

I did something very stupid (sort of). I was cooking with jalapenos as preparation for dinner tonight. I was sure I washed my hands thoroughly but I must have been wrong. Rubbed my eye. Now my eye is burning. Silly me :silly:
I had a friend that was eating habeneros. He came back from the bathroom cringing, saying, “Wash your hands carefully *before* you go.” lol
I hate it when both living and dead taunt each other
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1756832/
Don’t you just hate it when a breeze flickers your candles?
I hate it when spirits try to override each other
I also hate it when pushy men try to take my ouija board
Yup, blood dripping on the floor when nobody is present also bugs me. I hope you don’t expect me to clean up that mess
And I’m definitely not cleaning up the mess caused when the old lady was killed by a flying ouija board
I would never attend a boring university lecture on spirits and ouija boards
And I really hate it when movies start showing a serene scene and then pop in a gory one just for the jump factor. It’s a cheap shot
And why are beautiful old house also all haunted? I would love a house like that… Without the evil spirits and stuff
It’s really nice when a family member dies and the house is impeccable. Beds are made, rooms dusted. Really good of them to leave things that way
Why are kids always so creepy?
Know it all friends who think you need closure are annoying
I’m also not a big fan of people who ask to stay after they’ve already moved all their stuff in
Or how about people that rent you a room in their boarding house then tell you you probably shouldn’t stay ther. Do they want my money or not?
Awkward house parties with forced conversations are always fun
I also find ghosts very inconsiderate. They keep turning lights on. It’s not like they pay the electric bill
I also have a thing against nosy friends who feel the need to nose around in your attic. Mic they see something, it’s their own damn fault
I also don’t like it when creepy dead people watch me as I’m recording
I also dont like it when people take things from my attic without my permission then insist we all play with the item he took
Anyone who says “I’m not an expert but…”
Creepy gargoyles aren’t my favourite thin either
I also don’t like, when you finally do contac someone from the other side, they just talk nonsense
I also hated it when the room fills with creepy dead people
Why do ghosts like to attack you with flying stuff. It’s just mean
Dippy university profs don’t work for me either
And why do ghosts alway lock you I. Or out of rooms? That’s just rude
And how do ghosts always know a person’s name? It’s not like they’ve been formally, or informally, introduced
And how is it, spirits are able to make people (usually the dippy female) so obsessed with something
And the footsteps upstairs when I’m trying to sleep. Seriously, how rude can you get?
And dreams. Why do they always have to be of death, gross things, insects, etc. what about happy things like puppies, kittens, posies, and stuff like that?
And under rude, why can’t I have phone connection? Maybe I have people to talk to
And basements… Don’t even get me started on ghosts obsession with basements
Although, advanced ghosts that know how to use wire cutters and such could be ok if they can fix the wiring they’ve obviously messed up
And pentagrams. What’s the deal with pentagrams?
And altering photographs. Really?
And then there’s the people. Really, splitting up is not the thing to do when in a tense situation
And when I’m in a bookstore, mind your own business. Just because I’m talking about evil spirits and stuff to the clerk, doesn’t mean I want you to listen in.
Why don’t any of the book store clerks I talk to have as more knowledge than I could ever want?
Why are all reporters pushy and dumb?
And mirrors. Seriously, my reflection should never, ever stop doing what I am.
And stop whispering! If you have something to say, than just say it!
Seriously, who doesn’t know that if a door open
