Good morning!

No big plans here. One of my engineers is "leaving" today so after work drinks, and then I plan a night on the couch finishing TGW. And then besides gym time, just birthday dinner for Mom on Sunday with the brother. I think I should start drinking now to prepare.......

I have a security system sign in my yard (that a friend gave me) and a herd of killer dustbunnies. I sleep soundly.

While we have ADT, the yard sign is in front of my daughter's house. It helps her sleep better at night. We're old. We don't need sleep.

We're sending the sunshine up your way. Your weather patterns are always a few hours behind ours.

Tink, I'll b going into one of those this afternoon. The chair of my department actually said to me:"You're the one who says what's on everyone's mind. Have fun today."

Wow. Permission to be bad. I love it.

[bdwaygirl]

Posted: 1/27/12 at 11:05am

I'm confused. I thought they cut your class or something.

[D2]

Posted: 1/27/12 at 11:08am

No, classes start on Monday. This afternoon is another department meeting. We're voting on new faculty. Always fun.

And for future reference, I've nicknamed our the department chair "The Comfy Chair."

After this week from hell I will be drinking my pineapple infused vodka with cranberry juice tonight. Casa de Zoo is going wild tonight!!!

I just got a bill from the purple people, SOMMS. They catered a supper for dance chaperones in November. I won't be ordering my drinks from them anytime soon - they'd probably charge me for the airfare to fly in the rum!

[brdlwyr]

Posted: 1/27/12 at 4:15pm

Vodka for me after work! Then, beers with "cheer dads" - no I am not kidding, the dads of our cheerleaders are meeting while the ladies curl their daughter's hair for competition tomorrow!

After a show last night, went with a friend for a drink to the bar next door. The last thing I did was pay for the check, then left with my friend, drove her home, and came home. This morning, my wallet was not to be found. I went through all my pants, everywhere I had sat when I got home, the jacket, cleaned the car (the horror) looking for it. So obviously I forgot it at the bar, probably left it on the table.

Drove to work sans wallet (or DL), called the bar. No answer. Called three or four times to no avail. jS and I were going to see a show tonight, so we met outside the bar to check. Nope, they don't have it. Can't be, it has to be there, right? But no, they don't have it. I resign myself that I've lost it. Cancel cards, get new drivers license ... so on my way home I did a quick prayer to Saint Anthony. Lo and behold, when I got home, I don't know why I went straight for the hamper. There, between the dirty clothes, was my wallet. I'm so grateful he's my saint. Thanks moony for introducing me to his superpowers years ago when I thought I had lost my Sweeney Todd tickets.

"I don't know why I went straight for the hamper."

I know why.

So happy your search was successful! Had you already canceled your cards?

I hadn't ... I wanted to make sure it wasn't at home. I was keeping an eye on my bank account, and nothing had been charged.

My prayers to him have not been answered He doesn't like me. Still haven't found my earring. It was the pair Chris got me for our last Valentine's Day. But such is life. I keep trying to tell myself it is just a thing. diamonds. but still just a thing.

Morning.

Finished TGW last night. Very good. Can't wait for S2 to come in.

Gym time done this morning. I just finished 4 weeks of the new regimen so I finally allowed myself to get on the scale. If I did it right it's shows I'm down 6lb. And the dude said it is prob more like 10 or so if you count how much muscle work ive been doing. I dunno, trying not to focus on numbers.

Now to figure out what else to do today.

Today is waiting for a friend to come over and take advantage of my empty partially finished attic. There are about 2 rooms of storage up there (you could actually have a golf simulator up there if you wanted it, I think the last owners did) that are pretty much empty, and he has to get out of his business space by tomorrow or his LL will not be so kind to work out a deal.

I have a feeling it will be up there for a while ...
