Work

ARGH!!!!!

*bangs head on desk*

BOSS: I have a package that needs to go to a client that I forgot to take there. If anyone goes out to lunch, can you have them take it?

(Consider that most folks go out to lunch, but this is a subtle 'hint' that I should take it. Never mind that this boss not scheduling her meetings correctly means I'd already been asked to go to lunch early. So I can't take it AND I won't be sitting at my desk when people do go to lunch.)

ME: Okay, I'll just send out an email and ask...

BOSS: Never mind. I'll just ask someone else.

Moving

I packed several boxes last night. I'm starting to run low on the smaller boxes, with only really huge ones left. Thing is, all I have packed is a small closet, all my books from the living room, and knicknacks. Oh wait, and DVDs/Tapes. Seriously, last night I filled up four boxes WITH BOOKS. I already had five boxes of books in the closet. I have at least two more boxes to fill up with books in the bedroom. I haven't gotten to clothes (luckily most will just be transfered via hanger, not actually packed, or in the drawers), linens, anything in the kitchen, any of the various things in the living room. Pretty much anything bedroom or bathroom related. And my bedroom closet is a NIGHTMARE.

Family

My family is weird with names. Animal names, family names - we do names badly. I'm either the most unique or most normal of the bunch (I'm not sure which).

Animals

Miss Priss
Kitty Witty
Itty Bitty Yiddish Kitty/Itty Bitty Yellow Kitty
Boots
Baby
Rascal
Miss Hiss (let it be known, Miss Hiss is Miss Priss's daughter and was hissing before she could walk)
Molly
Chelsea
Maddie
Him
Herschel
Wee Wee
Fred
Sweetie Pie
Bo
Chester

I would like it noted that, looking at those names? My family mocks me for the name of my dog, Chester. They think Chester is the weirdest name EVER. They had a dog named Wee Wee! In fact, of all those animal names, my dog and Miss Hiss are the only animals I ever got to name (and Miss Hiss is a perfect name considering her heritage and the fact that she still hisses at people).

Family Names

We have Scott, Katie, Elizabeth, and Wesley as family names. Not bad. But then add in the really bizarre family names like Fanny (yes, you read that right), Clinard, Grover and Cecil.

NASCAR Big Break Challenge

NASCAR drivers playing golf - hell, it's the only way you can get me to watch golf, because of the mocking. This group didn't mock as much (it wasn't like they could get a word in around Kurt, who, bless his heart, is the chattiest thing on the face of the earth), but I was entertained.

Because...

BORIS SAID!
HERMIE!!!!!!
Kyle Petty!
Mike Skinner
The Busch

Hermie was strangely quiet. I won't mention how they all did for those that did tape it, but I have to say, Hermie has the exact same accent, just less country. Boris...I just keep wanting to fix his teeth (and his pervy tendencies, but that's half the love). Kurt swings funny. I swear, he clamps his legs like he has to go to the bathroom.

Work: Here! Bind this! Oh wait, did you include the summary we never mentioned when you saw this for the first time two minutes ago? That needs to be in it too! Oh, but you bound it wrong because these spreadsheets are supposed to be here rather than at the end, even though we never bothered to give you any info on this thing and you were merely going off of logic.

Trent Cherry Speaks: "OK, now before you read this I need to clear a couple of things up. Yes I'm an idiot, and no I don't need another daddy speech from anyone about how dumb this was because I ve already gotten more than I can take." Thank goodness he admitted to it, since he was the fool on Ryan Newman's pit crew that tried to jump into a crowd of drunk guys.

Acknowledge the Uterus: Mine is demanding acknowledgement. By acting like someone is trying to rip it out through my back.

Katharine's Mom: Let it be known, last night when they interview Kat's mom on American Idol? I was ready to scream. I may not be crazy about Kat, but I don't think some of her tics, the little things she does that annoy me, are her fault. However I DO think they are her mother's fault. Mom is such an overbearing stage mother living vicariously through her child that it's scary. I can just see all potential future profits being siphoned into mommy's bank account now. And I'm guessing the first thing they'll be used on is plastic surgery. (She's due a breast lift. Hey, she was all too willing to show them to us, and they're not NEARLY as fabulous as Kat's.)

eliz: Happy Birthday! Check your email when you get home.

Random Picspam

In the past couple of days I've run across some doozies, some pictures that just make you want to weep or smile.
