Today is my last full day of work here in the loveliness that is Purchasing. But never fear, gentle readers, I shall return. School starts on Tuesday, so I will work only part time (Wed and Fri). The best part, really, is that I'm going to be working on my special project all the time I am here and I don't have to do stupid projects for my ( Read more... )

My favorite anti-abortion grey-hairs was out today putting up his signs as I drove by. I went to lunch at the hospital and when I came back to Coro, the signs were really diminished by all the road construction equipment.

You should all go visit here right now. That's one of the knitting blogs I browse regularly. Her "Thursdays are for What the hell is this?" entries are priceless.

Also, on another What the hell? note, Karl Stortz Endoscopy just called to conduct a customer service satisfaction survey with me. At least they asked about an order I placed ( Read more... )

Interweave is having a back issues sale, which is pretty exciting, so I'm catching up on the ones I'm missing from 2005. I find that exciting ( Read more... )
