  1. Oh my god. I'm now showering with flip flops on. That's gross! Why have I never thought of that? lol. We stayed in an eco-suite in Savannah back in February. It had a claw-foot tub big enough to fit two people. I was happily enjoying my candle-lit bubble bath when I suddenly thought about how many couples had 'enjoyed' the tub as well. Bath time was over.
  2. I didn't until I started traveling. In the past 11 months I've been to New Orleans, Nashville, Orlando and Savannah several times. It didn't bother me until I realized that, due to my recent love for road trips and vacationing, I've spent more than 30 days in hotel beds in the past 11 months as well. ~shivers~ And I have another trip planned next month at the one year mark. Hotel beds creep me out - I'm surprised I haven't come home with everything in trash bags.
  3. My late 70-something year old grandmother is computer illiterate, but her 50-something year old daughter lives with her and is a computer genius. I called her and told her to have my aunt pull up the pictures of the baby. First she was concerned that I had pictures of the baby already and had given birth without telling her (hello...I'm only 14 weeks, grandma!). Then, I hear 'What in the WORLD is THAT?!'. We had to have a discussion about technology and how ultrasounds work.
  4. You make too much sense here lately. A company policy is a company policy. At my previous job, I signed a Code of Ethics that had a TON of things I couldn't do, even on my personal time. I worked on campus, and there were things I couldn't do on 'my' time even as a student at night - student events I couldn't participate in, a Slumber Parties business I couldn't advertise, etc. I once got into a heated debate with one of the student-labeled 'crazy Christians' that protest with their 'Homo sex is Sin' and 'You're all Whores' signs, and was politely removed by one of the Deans. He let me kn
  5. NEW YORK (CBS/AP) Turns out the courier who said he "lost" a $1.3 million painting while on a drunken bender, when everyone suspected he was trying to pull some kind of "Thomas Crown" con, might actually just be the drunk doofus he says he is. http://www.cbsnews.c...722-504083.html Here's the original story: The mystery of a missing 19th century masterpiece remains unsolved - even after its ex-con owner was nabbed on charges Thursday of bilking a buyer.Thomas Doyle, 53, swindled a Japanese art collector by overvaluing "Portrait of a Girl," a delicate work by Jean Baptiste Camill
  6. That's how I felt about him. I thought his bedside manner was amusing in a Dr. House sort of way. He was a damn good doctor - atleast in my experience. I miss him. Still haven't settled on a new physician. /sigh/ And I had NO idea he was your dad, Satellite. Didn't even put two and two together.
  7. SO did. Now he's a regular at the shop and doesn't smoke cigarettes.
  8. You shoulda seen her. Afterward, when she had the embarrassed look on her face, the nurse said 'See, that wasn't so bad, was it?' She made a shocked face and said 'Yes! It was absolutely horrifying!' 5 points to the kiddo for using big words and saving face all in one swoop.
  9. That ticks me off. And the response from the reporter ticks me off as well. One, it was snarky. Two, it was blatant, intentional misrepresentation of facts. Three, journalists and reporters have degrees, right? I've used smartphones with tiny keyboards - I would never send an email with that many grammatical and spelling errors, especially to a viewer. Back to Channel 2 for my morning and evening news. PSA to the disgruntled person: I'm not upset there was a story. It's a great cause, and Nadia's injuries were horrible. I am very, very happy that she is doing well. Paulding Cou
  10. It's a genius idea (I've used it for shots...it works!), but watch out for it coming back to bite you in the tush. We wound up in the ER a couple of times without a toy/reward....Lawd have mercy. I swear, I don't know why this child is so afraid of non-butterfly needles. This last time I did have a reward and it still took me and two nurses to hold the kid down. She was terrified. Afterward, of course, she was just a little embarrassed and mad at herself for acting like a crazy kid.
  11. THANK you! Drove by. Because your kids are car riders, and YOU make sure YOUR kids get to and from school safely. Thank you, as well.
  12. You should probably watch the final episode. The downhill spiral makes much more sense. I've never watched sitcoms. :nea:We had one television in the house, and it was strictly for Saturday Morning Cartoons as far as the kids went, with the exception of Braves games. I was in 4th grade when Friends started, Kindergarten when 90210 aired (I did have a 90210 sleep shirt and caught an occasional episode while at my dad's house...like that was age-appropriate ), and was three when Seinfeld came about. Never caught on to any of them. SO, on the other hand, owns the entire Seinfeld s
  13. Mini-Me has had her blood drawn yearly since she was a year old. They've always used a tiny butterfly needle with an itty bitty tubing to collect the blood. She actually likes watching it. When I took her for her vaccinations a few weeks ago, she about lost it on the nurses because they had 'real' needles and not the butterfly. Mini-Me couldn't feel pain until here recently, and now her tolerance is still extremely high...so I guess her opinion of it doesn't count. I just had it done last week, though, and it's relatively painless. They're even spring loaded to withdraw the needle no
  14. Robin Meade is *HOT*. Thanks, though. Made mah day. I need to work on that 'great personality' part here lately - I tend to turn into a snarky bitch when I'm pregnant. Yes you are.
  15. This is an awesome deal! I'm not a new customer, so I don't qualify, but I'll definitely send some of my friends your way this weekend and probably stop in for a cut myself.
  16. My grandpa used to make these incredible deer sausage biscuits for me on Sunday mornings. I haven't had one since he died ten years ago, and have been craving them like crazy here lately. My dad said he got the 'spicy' venison from the processor, but my friend gave me regular (I do so love my friend for giving me venison ). So...how do I make it taste similar? I'm pretty much a dunce when it comes to the kitchen. I have maybe 15 things I make well, repeatedly, and venison biscuits isn't one of them.
  17. Dang it, dang it, dang it! I so wanted to get this done and thought it was this weekend. /sigh/
  18. I think El -Gee-Em is the closest. It actually stands for lilgallowsmama, though. And Thanks! What's up with people thinking I'm cute? Like, Pippi Longstockings, pinch my cheeks kinda cute?
  19. I saved you a zillion years ago when we were all meeting up for magic8ballredneckdarts, and it just stayed on my SIM card that way.
  20. :blush: Thaaaaanks! You're simply '17' in my phone.
  21. It's not?! Most p.commers, if they've been around for awhile, know my real name. Doesn't bother me at all. What bothers me is when people call me LGM in public and then won't tell me their real name OR screen name.
