My coworkers are an interesting bunch – dorkism.net, pocketlint.net, and mymomsaysiamcool.com. Kymberlie is working on getting online too. Meanwhile, I have surrendered to the fact that my local ISP is never going to get things set up right so I can use blahblahblog.com and so I found a different host last night. I will be moving this as soon as the DNS settings change and I can get it all set up… Yeah!!!
Don’t YOU wish you could work in an office as fun as ours?
Uh oh. I told Marc about the blog, and now he is hooked. I’m telling you, this stuff is like crack. Soooooo… since he didn’t even know what a blog was until today, he doesn’t have one. I told him to just give it a little time. You can’t resist the blog. Meanwhile, he sent this little poem for me to share.
It is winter
The groundhog sees a shadow
It is the front tire of my car
There will be six more weeks of winter
But not for the groundhog
Thanks for sharing that with me Marc. I think it adds the perfect touch. It is a lovely day outside here in Houston. Maybe that’s my problem – I have spring fever, just a bit early. Considering how warm it is outside, that’s not too surprising. (Did I mention that I hate Houston & the fact we have 2 seasons? Summer and the other 2 months of the year…)
I was IM’ing with Marc, and I sent him my list of URLs. This one, plus the address that this one is moving to – BlahBlahBlog.com – and the one for my soap site. Here is how the conversation went:
Marc: you are WEBWOMAN
Me: LOL
Me: I like to ramble. I needed a place to do it.
Marc: that’s like Wonderwoman with out the annoying invisible plane.
At that point, I was laughing so hard I almost fell out of my chair. Of course, it doesn’t help that the boss is walking around the office with clients. I feel like I should be wearing a cape and helping out all the poor, defenseless, blog addicts…
AAAAAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGGGGH!!! I clicked on a link, and it overwrote everything I had written in the “Blog This!” window. Grumble, grumble. Lets see, maybe I can remember it all.
I am going to work on the “Blogs I Visit” links tonight, but for now, here are some more: This is My Brain on Blog… and Sometimes I Scare Myself: The Journal.
Kymberlie’s Dad got a new Pug Puppy. I bet it is just as cute as can be. I like it when other people have dogs. Part of me wants a dog, but they are *so* high maintenance. And I am high maintenance – so that is a conflict of interest there. I think I am better off sticking with my low maintenance, quiet, cats. But there are days where I would love to have a pretty golden retriever or a yellow lab. (Or a dog that is a mix of both)
I sent Naomi this cool card from Yahoo! Greetings that said “We Learned it all in Kindergarten … Boys are Stupid”. I couldn’t resist. It was too perfect, since she has listened to me whine time & time again about my man problems since last June. It definately gave me that nice warm fuzzy feeling when she IM’d me to tell me “thanks for your awesome-groovy-coolness self”. Awwww… I just love that warm fuzzy feeling. Especially when it comes from someone who ROCKS like Naomi. (I said more stuff before, but Blogger ate that too. LOL)
You know, I keep reading blogs instead of working. Is there some correlation between blogs and crack? Heroin? What? These things are TOO addictive. Mannnnn… I am going to be so busted if I don’t get back to work. Instead, I keep reading blogs and laughing at my computer. Everyone must think I am nuts. Oh well, nothing new.
I am supposed to be working. But a brief blog interlude never hurt anyone, did it? So anyway… is where I found myself. Well, I’m waiting for a conference call. There isn’t much I can do while waiting for a call, is there? Just sit here and read blogs.
Great. Just great. Just got an IM from the rep that was going to call. The client wants to reschedule. Oh, but they won’t give Ed a time. “We’ll call later this week.” Thanks. I hate that. Why are people so rude? You make an appointment – you keep the appointment. Oh – that reminds me – I need to reschedule my dentist appointment.
