Fruits of My Labor

Pushing deadlines, that's what I am doing today... That and looking forward to the arrival of my Refurb. Blackberry, which is scheduled to arrive tomorrow! Yay... I know it's refurbished, but hey, I figure that they probably did a good job on it, and I liked the style. It is a wider phone, so no more fatal toilet-incidents hahaha (hopefully). And as The fabuloso Jay said, nobody should have the things in the bathroom with them, and I wouldn't have really except for I considered myself on my way out to lunch, and just had it in my pocket... We'll see... so I get a fruitilicious "Crackberry", and I'll finally find out what the fuss is all about. Headed over to Pickled Beef (Tink's fine Blog), and got the 4-11 on the 2009 ideas for the Weekly Words Challenge (WWC). Seems everyone has some cool notions on how to spice it up a little, and it's sure to be even more fun. Our first WWC for 2009 will be to post up our favorite photos from 2008 . She state...

Today has been one of my 'crazy karma' days. Yeah, one of those days when ridiculous things just "happen" to me... well hey, my Grandmother was a Murphy (see Murphy's Law ). I was about to leave for lunch today, when I decided to stop into the bathroom (a.k.a. "Loo", "John", "Toilet" etc), for a quick pee and hand wash before going forth. Now, I am not one of those annoying freaks who sit in the bathroom and talk on their cellphone (sorry if you are one of those freaks, to each his own but just so you know it annoys the piss out of people *no pun intended*). I simply had my cellphone in my jacket pocket in case someone tried to reach me, in which case I would've waited until I left the bathroom and called them back. Sure I should have kept it in my purse pocket, but hey, I've never had a problem before, so I thought nothing of it. Everything is dripping along fine, I grab a piece of toilet paper and do the womanly thing. Then ...

Coffee, Games and Men

Thursday morning began by my waking up earlier than usual. I attribute this to the fact that I took the Tylenol Simply Sleep at 8:00 p.m. instead of 9 or 10 as I had been. The first two nights, I still could not wake up as planned. After taking it at 8 instead, I was successful! So afterwards, I came home and made a healthy low-carb breakfast of Turkey Bacon, and Grade A organic Eggs. As well, I put on a nice pot of strong coffee. This is the first time I have made coffee since I bought my big "ThermoServ" mug, so needless to say I was thrilled to indulge in this climactic event. I proceeded to get ready for work, and after all that effort at making an "earlier" start, getting ready, I still arrived in the parking garage at the same time as I have been... WTF?? Where did I go wrong?? Do I have a built-in time clock now that says, "Nooo, just chill out it is not late enough for you to leave yet... Oh go the speed limit, you've got plenty of time!!" (Wel...
