Not only is that a line from the Parappa the Rappa video game (for Playstation 1 - long before the days of Guitar Hero - in this game you had to hit controller buttons as they came across the screen and try to keep rhythm). So, as I was saying, not only is that a line from the video game, but it's what my girls are doing in my belly right now. Last night they were causing a ruckus too - they seem to be getting quite strong judging by how much they can make my belly jump around. I'd just like...

I'm rolling my eyes at myself at that blog title...though like many females, I LOVE the movie Dirty Dancing. It's among my favorites.

Anyways, I can't skip my last two speech assignments because they make up 35% of my grade. However, I feel like I am the only one, of 7 people, that is doing anything in my group and it really teed me off. Last week it was the struggle to get people to agree on a time and topic. The topic they chose last minute and the time, well, we just winged...

DH was up when I got up this morning - his legs were bothering him again. We cuddled for a minute and he made some comment about how early I get up. I told him I don't like it, but what choice do I have? So then he goes on to say "How long do you think it will be before we can teach the girls Excel?" It was too cute. Both of our jobs rely, a good part, on our knowledge of Excel. So it was his way of joking that we'll put them to work and they can support us. It was really cute....

The day is off to a good start; let's see if I can keep it going.

I got a decent nights sleep. Woke up right when I needed to. Was out of the house on time. Hit nearly every green light on the way to work, which means I made record time (and had time to stop at Starbucks for a tall coffee). I wasn't the first one here so I didn't have to fumble with locks and the alarm. So far no interruptions, and I got an A on the last assignment I turned in for Speech.

I've...

Is there a group called "RSA: Registry Stalkers Anonymous" ?? If so, I may need to join.

I'll check mine a couple times a week, which is especially funny since, to my knowledge, both showers for me are being held after the holidays. Yet, much to my surprise, a few items have gone in the past week. Nothing big though, which makes me think maybe someone's shopping ahead for Christmas. Newly bought off the list I'm showing 4 bottles, a manicure set, and an exersaucer....

because I'm already dreading another work week come tomorrow!

I think I figured out why the dog had been sick; we gave him a rawhide last week which he ate in about 2 days. We had stopped giving them to him a long while ago b/c they gave him diarrhea...so I think that's the culprit...hopefully once it digests a bit more he'll be OK. He was fine so far today *knock on wood*.

I went to my parents house for about 4 hours to help my mom clean out my old room. I think...

I love my dog...BUT...he's driving me crazy lately! The incessant barking, constant scratching, and mess he makes are getting to me.

Today he caused me to have a mini-meltdown. I spent all morning cleaning. I could tell he wasn't feeling right and I kept waiting for him to get sick; but nothing. So, I came upstairs and checked email, then went to use the bathroom (I had to go #2). Of course he followed me in there (he's clingy when he doesn't feel well). I no sooner started...

Well, my Friday has started off like the day from heck so maybe I'm bound to have a stereotypical Friday the 13th. Work has been crazy since I got in. My boss is a no show yet. Programmer works from home Fridays. And the other two coworkers won't be in till 9-10 at the earliest. I must have made at least 10 trips up and down the steps in the last hour (I don't care what anyone says; that IS my form of exercise).

I am watching myself carefully today too. Some of my CM this morning...

Just rec'd an email giving us an update on the remediation going on at my work. One line reads, "I understand that because these solvents readily evaporate, they were not found in surface soil at the property above Pennsylvania’s cleanup standards that are intended to be protective of worker safety. Rather the solvents were found in soil below the surface, where people would not generally come into contact with them." Am I the only one that finds that almost comical? Because DUH -...

whether I have time for it or not, I'm making time to blog! Work has been hectic this morning and I haven't had a second to breathe.

My boss is running budget numbers and he's asking me for all kinds of reports. Plus the usual stuff going wrong and the usual idiots I work with - it all piles up. I tried running a search on our network this morning to figure out why this one lady is out "indefinitely" at my work. She lives close by to me but is a lot older and I really...
