Ladies and Gentlemen...

I found out last night that my sister is having a little baby boy.  She is not due until October...but I am SUPER excited :) 

(She's about 5 months along).  I CAN'T WAIT!!!   I love little kids :)  

Happy

Thanksgiving

Everyone!

Two young boys walked into a pharmacy one day, picked out a box of Tampax and proceeded to the checkout counter.
The man at the counter asked the older boy, "Son, how old are you?"

"Eight," the boy replied.

The man continued, "Do you know what these are used for?"

The boy replied, "Not exactly, but they aren't for me. They're for him. He's my
brother. He's four. We saw on TV that if you use these you would be able to swim and ride a bike. He can't do either one."

This started an email. I thought it was going to be a whole bunch of lovey dovey crap. Then I read the last line and chewed up pops almost came flying out of my mouth.

Do not walk behind me, for I may not lead. Do not walk ahead of me, for I may not follow. Do not walk beside me for the path is narrow. In fact just fuck off and leave me alone.

A blonde calls her boyfriend and says, "Please come over here and help me. I have a killer jigsaw puzzle and I can't figure out how to get it started. Her boyfriend asks, "What is it supposed to be when it's finished?" The blonde says, "According to the picture on the box, it's a tiger. "Her boyfriend decides to go over and help with the puzzle. She lets him in and shows him where she has the puzzle spread all over the table. He studies the pieces for a moment, then turns to her and says, "First of all, no matter what we do, we're not going to be able to assemble these pieces into anything resembling a tiger." He held her hand softly, led her to a chair and said, "Secondly, I'd advise you to relax. Let's have a cup of coffee, and then. ..." He sighed, "let's put all the Frosted Flakes back in the box."

Heard some interesting things on Kiss108 this morning:

Mikkalah from American Idol (a.k.a Fran Drescher) is going to appear at the South Shore Plaza in Braintree this evening from 5-9pm. Anyone interested in seeing her, can go and do so. I most likely will not go...but must admit it is pretty cool

A girl who is co-owner of a girls t-shirt line was on promoting her and her girlfriend's line. Go to www.soxtease.com if you're interested in buying a t-shirt that would actually fit a girl, and wouldn't be big and baggy. Apparently they have had funny slogans like "Hot for Trot" and "Claimin' Damon." The shirts are $18...not super cheap, but not atrocious either.

Ok, time to start my day.

Hope everyone has a good one!

Going to visit my mum tonight...and to meet courtney for dinner...and my bridesmaid dress. I'm hoping it fits... :/ I hate getting stupid alterations...

Getting out an hour early today, since I worked an extra hour the other day. So I only have three hours left today. I think I'm going to go out on my lunch break and run an errand. We'll see if I actually do it. :)

I start the second job today...4 or 5 to 8. The lady said to come at 4 or 5...so I'm thinking...4:30? :) I really hope I get to play with the toys while I'm there...perhaps make a leggos display...like a house for some little playmobile dudes...

the new lady reminds me of tammy pescatelli...except she's not funny.

2.5 hours left. Blueberry pie is not helping...nor is it even that good. I wish it was chocolate pudding pie...ohhhh...chocolate pudding pie...

who makes blueberry pie, honestly?

I don't feel so good...can't finish this nastiness

yogurt after tea does not equal a happy tummy....ohhhh...

So many papers on my desk - I should stop live journaling!!!!!!!!!!

It is a possibility that I'll get to see Jeff this evening (as he is on a business trip in Rhode Island, just for the day/night). I hope I do, but he may be working verrrrry late. If we don't get to see eachother tonight, I know that I will get to see him on Thursday night.

There is a rather large meeting going on in the office today. Loan officers from both here and Falmouth are gathered around the table in the office. There are about 7 of them. I closed my door, but my boss came in to ask me something and when he left he left it open...so I think he might want it open. whatev. I guess I'll just have to listen to the lameness of the meeting. BLAH. Thank Goodness for LJ. :)

My mom is doing pretty well. She can now sit up in bed without too much hesitation. I'm sure it still hurts a bit, but not nearly as much as it did a week ago. My sister in Cali sent my mom a care package with some really cool stuff. She was very excited going through the box. The pj's are nice: pastel colored floral satin top and bottoms. Plus there were a few books she hasn't yet read, so that was nice. What we need to find for her is a book full of word jumbles. I've been to a few locations and can't seem to find one just full of those. They have one in the Boston Herald every day, and she loves it. If anyone knows what I am talking about and knows where I can find one, let me know. Thanks!

Yesterday I got a second job at a little toy store next to my apartment complex. I get a generous discount, higher pay than I was expecting (still not high, but higher) and time and a half on Sundays, which I have never received. So that will be nice. Most importantly I told the woman that I need to take at least one weekend off a month to visit my cutie in VA, and she was totally cool with it. She told me that she has been getting a bunch of younger applicants, but nobody she would trust with the store. My schedule now looks like this:
Mon-Wed, Fri: 8:30am-3:00pm
Thu: 8:30am-3:00pm, 4:00pm-8:00pm
Sat: 10:00am-6:00pm
Sun: 12:00pm-5:00pm

There are actually a few things I would buy at this little store, like stickers and puzzles, so I'm excited :) Plus I know people who have nieces and nephews who could definitely benefit from the discount.

These peeps have only been here for like 30-40 minutes, but I already want 'em to go...I want to go for tea. :)

COMPUTERS VS. CARS

At a recent computer expo (COMDEX), Bill Gates reportedly compared the
Computer industry with the auto industry and stated, "If GM had kept up
with technology like the computer industry has, we would all be driving
$25.00 cars that got 1,000 miles to the gallon."

In response to Bill's comments, General Motors issued a press release
stating: If GM had developed technology like Microsoft, we would all be
driving cars with the following characteristics:

1. For no reason whatsoever, your car would crash twice a day.
2. Every time they repainted the lines in the road, you would have to
buy a new car.
3. Occasionally your car would die on the freeway for no reason. You
would have to pull over to the side of the road, close all of the windows,
shut off the car, restart it, and reopen the windows before you could
continue. For some reason you would simply accept this.
4. Occasionally, executing a maneuver such as a left turn would cause
your car to shut down and refuse to restart, in which case you would have to
reinstall the engine.
5. Only one person at a time could use the car unless you bought
"CarNT", but then you would have to buy more seats.
6. Macintosh would make a car that was powered by the sun, was
reliable, five times as fast and twice as easy to drive but would only run on
five percent of the roads.
7. The oil, water temperature, and alternator warning lights would all
be replaced by a single "General Protection Fault" warning light.
8. New seats would force everyone to have the same sized butt.
9. The airbag system would ask "Are you sure?" before deploying.
10. Occasionally, for no reason whatsoever, your car would lock you out
and refuse to let you in until you simultaneously lifted the door handle,
turned the key, and grabbed hold of the radio antenna.
11. GM would require all car buyers to also purchase a deluxe set of
Rand McNally road maps (now a GM subsidiary), even though they neither need
nor want them. Attempting to delete this option would immediately cause the
car's performance to diminish by 50% or more. Moreover, GM would become
a target for investigation by the Justice Department.
12. Every time GM introduced a new car, car buyers would have to learn
to drive all over again because none of the controls would operate in the
same manner as the old car.
13. You'd press the "Start" button to shut off the engine.
