Bliss!

Keri sent me a CD once, and I was delighted by the packaging.

Funny, I never even watch South Park

Coolest thing I've found all day: create yourself in the style of South Park

He's my favorite

Again with the memes ... (thanks, Molly!)

You are Spider-Man

You are intelligent, witty,
a bit geeky and have great
power and responsibility.

Euphemisms are fun

So I work in customer service, and as anyone who has had to deal with the public knows, the customer is always right.  Right?  Right. Except when they're not. Which happens much more than you'd expect.  Yeah, even more than that.

So when we're blowing off steam about a particular customer, we like to come up with euphemisms for their perceived mental capacity.  The one that made me laugh out loud today:

The wheel is spinning, but the hamster's dead.

Horoscope for the new year

'Cause Beth did it:

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 - Feb. 18)
Long-term goals are odd things for Aquarians. On the one hand, ya'll can see forward into the possibility of the future better than a lot of signs. On the other hand, Lord ya'll are stubborn. Sure you see what COULD be possible, but stubbornly insist your path is on some other, parallel universe where nothing has been determined yet. Your 2007 To-Do: Create some peace in your day-to-day life by accepting a little routine. Routine is not synonymous with slow death, it's just where we spend a lot of time, between Big Ups and Big Downs. Learn to embrace even a little of your routine and you'll feel smoother on the inside, less like you're missing out on your big potential. To Don't: Don't miss out on your Big Potential. Aquarians occassionally need a good flogging to get them back on the straight and narrow path to personal greatness. Do you? Are you stubbornly resisting your own best life? (Told you this was self-helpy. Sorry!)

This is pretty much the story of my life.  Go Crazy Aunt Purl!

By the way, my birthday is coming up in a month and 10 days.  We're going dancing.  What kind of dancing? Why, both kinds! Country and western! 

Ha! I love that joke.  Anyway, if you want to go, lemme know and I'll make sure you're included.

Holiday re-cap, done!

'Cause I know you're interested, I'll let you know that I finally made all my holiday photos public:

Christmas

I am recovering nicely, thanks!  Although ... I think perhaps my immunity to the colds and coughs that have been attacking every single person around me for the past 2-3 weeks is finally weakening.  Woke up today with a stuffy nose and some PN drip going on.  Good thing my social calendar this month is nearly empty!!

And? We're going olive picking on Sunday! How cool is that?

Here's $.55 ...

Not that I'm bitter or anything, but this is a great song.  Don't you know someone you'd like to hear it?

“Born. Eat. Shag. Die.”

My 2006, summed up in 24 words:

Family drama got me down. Took up crafts. Summer sucked.  Nieces growing fast.  Best friend married. First visit to NYC. Hoping to evolve more.

Do I have Santa Hat-head?

- upon finishing my Secret Santa duties at work and shedding the Santa Hat.

Help!

Someone forwarded this to me today.  Sometimes, I have to admit, I have done this too.
