This Is The Thread Where I Say.......Part Seven!

I would send you kisses, but it might be weird since we've met in person. :-)

Ha ha, chris.

I am supposed to be doing more research on the intricacies of sending flowers to a hospital (who knew it was so fucking complicated) but I cant...stay...away.

My dad's surgery lasted like 6 hours and it turns out that he's doing okay and is in recovery now. Initially I was calling and being transferred all over the hospital and nobody could tell me anything except for one woman who told me he was in the ER. Which freaked me out. But it was a mistake--I'm glad that the surgeons are not so incompetent as those who answer the phones at hospitals.

It really shouldn't be any more complicated than that.

I'm glad he's okay, chica! xx

Julia, most surgeons are too scared to be THAT incompetent. I'll keep mine fingers crossed.

Pink, emailed you!

CP, sending off for your CDs today.

Happy hols, everyone. Be back tommorrow, if I can open my eyes.....

GRRRRR!

that's my day. had a flat this morning. three of my windows were broken at school AFTER THANKSGIVING. sub had been asking repeatedly that they be fixed and was told "it's not a priority at the moment." So for over two weeks there have jagged pieces of glass in my windows and freezing wind blowing in constantly. We all had to wear our coats in the room and the kids are taking final exams. I'm going to hunt down the vice-prinicpal tomorrow and threaten to call my friend at Fox 4 News if he doesn't get them fixed.

Then after school I go to a DISD (school district) admin bldg to register for a graduate course I need. I parked on a public street and was inside for 30 minutes, top. Come back and my passenger side window was shattered. glass everywhere. They stole all my CDs and the portable cd player I use at the gym (all this stuff was shoved under a seat and not visible from outside). AND they stole my school bag. A tote bag that clearly had a DISD logo on the front and said "Where great teachers make a great difference." Jeez, what do you think would be in a bag like that? Lessee, student papers to grade, curriculum guides. WHAT THE FUCK WOULD A THEIF WANT WITH THAT?!

and now I have to shell out $200, again, to have my window fixed. :(

(oh and did I mention I was parked next to the lot where they keep cop cars? in broad daylight?)

ggrrrrr

You're assuming any cops were watching, though?

i'm just making a comment on the size of the theif's huevos. Obstenibly cops are coming and going from right there.

and i only have libality insurance. fourth time since i've moved to dallas that my car's been broken into. third time i've had to replace glass.

And I'd consider catching the thief and slicing off his huevos.

I am seriously contemplating an ILX break. The moderator issue is depressing me. Things are just *wrong* round here right now. Something's got to change.

I am REALLY slow this morning. Nick woke up super early and couldn't get back to sleep, so he was tossing and turning and keeping me awake. Normally, he would just go lay on the couch, but we got rid of our couch early on. S L E E P Y.

We're doing the 2nd interviews today at work. The other day, I thought I was going to get all stressed again, because my boss basically said that he would be willing to pay more for this position, WAY more if he has to do get someone near as good as me. Ok, then WHY THE FUCK DIDN'T YOU PAY ME MORE?!?!! He's considering hiring one woman who gets paid 10k more than I do already a year and she has no real estate experience. But I reassure myself I don't want to work for him any more anyway.

I think that the coming internet break over Xmas will do me good.

I know I never write, Nic, we're never online at the same time, and I suck. You should come back and visit us, and we'll get together for a drink and a laugh.

I was 15 minutes late to work this morning. Now I've managed to waste away the next 15 talking to Nick on the phone and catching up on some ILX activity.

I may have just accepted a singing job in a funk band. Lawd have mercy.

I feel like shit, cause a great deal of the tension was provoked by me. How many ways are there to say sorry?

I hate feeling like an asshole for trying to give someone the benefit of the doubt. Especially when you're proved wrong in the end.

Two more days of work, and then it's nothing but rest and relaxation for the next two weeks. Boy, rest and relaxation will be good.

Sarah McL, come back and post kitten pictures, PLEASE.

BONGO SOLO!

...

wait, fuck that,

XYLOPHONE SOLO!

Hey, I wanna go to that New Years show...

Sarah, dude! You and Nick are gonna be in Chicago by then huh? You guys should find tickets and go too! That would be sweet.

ha ha yeah I'm pretty much considering them gotten, glass is half-full etc.

I love reading iLX as most of you are incredibly intelligent and there are some great debates that go on around here. And as for the humour, well you guys are just too much. I often get strange looks from my colleagues as I burst into fits of laughter at my monitor.

I kiss you ILX, and I hope that those who are stressed can get rid of it all by partying hard offline at Christmas. Those who aren't, well party hard anyway.

I'm gonna be sat here in work for most of Christmas so I will be logging into ILX more often than usual, so please continue to keep me entertained with the usual banter. (but less arguements please)

(pretty please?)

I've been here for about a year and a half now, I would guess.

My old username was Fuzzy but I grew to disklike it, but I never posted much anyhoo.
