Finding a hidden greeting.....Thank You WI.

Being glad I don't look my age.

Getting all mushy from a card I found this am!!

I'm extremely happy today because I went out with a girlfriend and got some serious retail therapy :D

Bath and Body Works was having a huge sale :D

I ate lunch at Applebee's

1. I am at peace today, even though I have 234586920468 balls still up in the air currently.

2. Things are starting to fall into place, and that thrills me so much I'll even put up with him telling me "I TOLD you they would." :D

3. I still have some pieces of the puzzle to figure out, but I'm confident I can make it work, somehow.

~wondering if all my friends are mushballs
~wondering if PF is my friend and, if so, at least one friend is not a mushball
~wondering how someone can be so !@#$% addicted to drugs that he misses a meeting with his parole officer :hair:

I enjoyed a quick jaunt/errand at lunch because the weather is beautiful today.

I'm frustrated with a situation at home.

I'm planning to see Star Wars again this weekend.

1) I finished an assignment at work and made excellent progress on another

2) Got a haircut

3) Planning a trip south

1) Unpacked from a trip south

2) Had to return 37 phone calls

3) Had a fun conversation last night

Had to work late :(

ate dinner alone :(

had a bad hair day :(

1. I had something happen today I *never* expected.

2. I hate to take my flowers home today because they look so pretty on my desk. :)

3. I hope to have a nice, relaxing weekend with my children.

My back and hips gave me hell all night

I NEED coffee!

I have low self esteem

*Took a nap at noon
*Had a chit chat with someone who I hope will be okay and kept saying the nicest things to me...even tho he had to see me put on my makeup ;)
*Met some peeps for dinner and they bought mine :)

1.) I talked to an old friend (who moved to the other side of the country) today. He made me realize the true nature of the "funk" that I've been in for 1568412168489 years and set me on the right path to fix the problem.

2.) I'm learning to turn my general melancholy feelings and sadness into PRODUCTIVE ANGER.

3.) I'm not putting up with any emotional games anymore, from anyone, ever again.

1. My apartment building lost power for about 15 minutes during a quick storm that passed through.

2. Had my abbreviated daily call to Alaska this evening...I feel very lonely tonight.

3. I finished up the first week of my new job today!

1. I finally bit the bullet and called my ISP last night because of the periodic, damn frustrating internet outages I'd been having. The two guys were here about 10 minutes, figured out the problem, and I'm good to go. :)

2. My daughter apparently takes after her mother and her preference for occasional weird food combinations--she just asked me for dill pickle spears and maraschino cherries. :spin:

3. I'm anxious to speak to someone tonight...I've missed him the last several days as we've not been able to get our schedules coordinated.

1. Have a party to go to this afternoon in South bay....wondering if I have the guts to attempt to learn cricket

2. Counting down the days -- 15 -- until we have our new home

3. I have so much STats and stuff to do....thanks to weeks that seem filled with business and traffic.

Gave a birthday party
have an aching body, must be from the "hurricane" pressure
A friend made me smile telling me what a great job I did on sewing a blanket :)

1. Played at Pixies for about an hour
2. Helped to cook breakfast for about 200 people at a Relay for Life pancake and sausage breakfast
3. Took a short nap

(and it's only 10AM)

1.) A friend called me at 4 AM and I woke up just as my phone quit ringing. She just nearly gave me a heart attack, I called her back just to be sure she was ok! (I'm one of those people that think the only reason you should call me after midnight is because someone is hurt or dead!)

2.) I'm drinking water that I put in a huge pitcher in the fridge yesterday with a fresh squeezed lemon in it.

3.) I had a dream that should have been straight out of a sci-fi movie last night, and I'm thinking about writing it down!

1. Set for another day of work, but considering doing it somewhere senic

2. Still counting down the days until I have my new house

3. Dreading the next week of work, and the exhaustion it will bring

1. I'm not sure why I stay up so late at night when I *know* I'm going to be exhausted the next day. :rolleyes2

2. I spent the afternoon at the pool with the kids--and ironically sitting next to and talking to one of our single-father dad clients, of whom my babysitter said, "OMG, he's fucking sexy." :hot:

3. With a gift certificate and a coupon, plus the fact that it had been clearanced twice, I got a new "I could be the best legal assistant/paralegal you ever had" suit today for $0.52. :D

1) Cut the grass :mad:

2) Shopped for XXX toys and movies :D

3) Stacked 1500 lbs of poultice (CGT knows what this is!)

1. Rested today since I am sick with a bad cough.

2. Mom bought me some groceries since I have not yet received my first paycheck to cover such expenses. I've been out of work for a looong time!

3. I opened the most beautiful, honest, and touching profession of love via email this morning which brought me to tears. :)

1. My spray-painted, hot-pinkish/red-headed daughter has her asthma coming out in full force, and I'm about to send her to my parents for two weeks. Mom is going to *kill* me. :D

2. My dance card, so to speak, is rapidly filling for my trip east in little more than a week, which is both exciting and anxiety-provoking.

3. I'm being kept in a state of perpetual sexual frustration, dammit. :D

1. Bought a trip to Chicago, and couldn't help but think of her ^^

2. Looking forward to only commuting for 2 days in the next 2 weeks

3. When I get back from Chicago, my bed will be in my new house....and I can get to work unpacking

1. The last 24 hours have aged me.

2. I'm wondering when ^^^ is going to be in Chicago, since I'll be there (briefly) this coming weekend. :D

3. I have a massive migraine I'm not seeing the end of.

1) Pulled a muscle in my back and couldn't play golf today :(

2) Read some of "Winning" by Jack Welch

3) Back felt better by afternoon, so....I ended up cutting the @#%*! grass. :mad:

I've been reading that one too -- has some *great* advice. I love the chapter on how to get promoted.

I'll be in Chicago starting Wednesday afternoon 6/22, leaving Friday 6/25 at 5 pm, and then returning Monday 6/28 and staying until Thursday 7/1. I *htink* those are the right days - I know the days of the week are right!

:spin:

Well, if you happen to fly over the Peoria area and see this feller down on the ground there waving and jumping up and down and making obscenely erotic gestures ....

it might just be me saying, "HI, OSUCHE!!"






Have a safe trip. :)

Thanks, DB.

/me blows kisses your direction

1. I had a *very* long talk with my sister last night, and it did me good.

2. For once, I'm glad to be back at work on a Monday--I can't handle too many weekends like the one I just had. LOL.

3. One week from now, I'll be someplace I've never been before--and I'm thrilled.

I had a really nice weekend.

I stuck a piece of rusty wire thru my ankle joint down at the barn yesterday and my ankle is swollen and I can hardly walk.

I need to go pick up 2 kids and I'm not in the mood for it.

Yep I do! Wondering what the hell ^^he's go do with 1500 lbs of it. lol

:p

There's a large eventing show here every year that my wife and I volunteer for. She's in charge of prizes and the poultice is one of the things each competitor gets in their goody box. It was donated by the manufacturer.

Damn that shit is HEAVY!

*whew*

:cboy:


rabbit

oh, almost forgot my three things....

1) Read white papers till my eyeballs hurt

2) Took my girl to soccer practice

3) Did some planning work for our vacation next month.

1. I verified once again this evening that the weedeater and I are *not* friends.

2. While I miss my children, I LOVE my quiet house--and my freedom--at least, for now.

3. Monday cannot come soon enough.

1. Yesterday was a very busy and stressful day here at work. Today, while still busy, should be more stress-free.

2. I (surprisingly) got to hear a sexy, sexy voice early this morning, although I learned that, like me, he's a bit grouchy when he's tired. :spin:

3. I'm not *quite* so sunburnt on my back and, um, other parts as I was the other night. :D

1. I took an employment exam tonight that would bring a job at the medical school if I make it to the final hiring round. I felt confident when I walked out.

2. I got a care package from Alaska with a CD full of beautiful scenery pics and some sexy ones as well!

3. It's over 90 degrees here and I can't wait to sleep naked tonight!

1. I'm pretty darn tired today. I've been here at least an hour early to work every day this week, have stayed late a few nights, and have yet to have a "real" lunch. Man, it's hell to get a few days off, isn't it?

2. I'm finally getting my two-week overdue haircut and color, though, this afternoon, just in time for my trip. :D

3. Things are soooooooooooooooo falling into place.
