Everything is Ducky.
I glumly related to The Socialist this evening that I realized that the concert date was on a night he was scheduled to teach. He paused and thought a moment and then said, “No it’s not. We have Spring Break that week.”

Kitten from Hell Recuperates.
KfH has found a fine place to recuperate from her operation – on top of the telephone under my desk light. I just wish someone had called me while she was there. I don’t think the operation has slowed her down much.
Yes, Coolmom … I got rid of the grey!
Damn, why didn’t I do this years ago? I didn’t get rid of all the grey – it appears that some of the grey hairs are as resistent to change as I am. Still, 95% of it is gone. I was afraid of ending up with hair that was all the same color (which looks…
Herd Update
I haven’t mentioned the cat herd in a while, except the downstairs foster (who is still looking for a home). I took a bunch of pictures the past few days, some of which came out nicely. A brief look at Who’s Who in the Salamander Pride: CATROY WAS HERE. The Little Black Shit likes hanging…
Split Second
My company has a very active safety office. My work environment is quite dangerous, and we do everything we can to keep accidents to a minimum. To keep everyone’s safety awareness at maximum, a “Picture of the Week” is hung in the main lobby. The pictures usually come from the Navy’s Safety Center web site….
Thunderstorms and angst.
I co-administer a message board out in cyberspace. Recently, the group of us who meet regularly on the board have gotten caught up with our own affairs and the message board has become very slow. One of the Europeans was feeling particularly left out of things, because there was seldom anyone around when he visited…
The Color of Status
The office tends to be a very hierarchical place. I use the term “office” loosely, as in “place where you go each day so they’ll give you your paycheck”, as opposed to the “place where they arrange desks in cubicles in order to maximize efficiency by minimizing privacy”. Anyhow, any established workplace has a definite…
You gave me a good laugh. The kitty and the replacement phenomenon. Me too, me too.
I USED, to be around a dunder head who was forever going on about how tired she was due to all the volunteer time she put in. (She didn’t feel appreciated either, boo hoo hoo) One hour of selling raffle tickets at the door and 6 hours of her griping about how hard she worked.
You -will- find someone to go with you, through the sheer force of my desire. Don’t stop asking.
It’s a realy shame that The Mouth doesn’t have A Brain. >:(
I have no idea who you’re talking about but I would go, just to go….too bad I’m so far away!

Maybe you were dreaming you were awake?
I don’t suppose you could go to see Dar with one of your sisters? Or would that be too much torture?

your workmate sounds entirely obnoxious
it wouldn’t surprise me if one of the rules of the universe states that in every work place it is compulsory to have such a person as the Mouth. we have a few of those people here, one in particular is notoriously difficult to work with. this person makes tidal waves if they do not get their own way all of the time
as for your liver transplant, not something necessarily easy to face but you sound like you are taking it all in stride. that’s really commendable, good for you
thanks for the comments. it makes one wonder how self-involved 2 people can be to have a wednesday wedding hundreds of miles from home!
take care 🙂

I’d go to see DW with you to brighten up an already bright event. I’m far from everybody, now! Well, I’m close to Tex and that makes up for the rest ;o)
– How is it that I can be insomniac and wide-awake at 6:00 a.m. only to be jolted out of a deep sleep at 6:30 a.m. by my alarm clock?
A: You relax when you know the nights almost over, and fall asleep.
– Why is the Kitten’s favorite place to sleep while I’m at the computer directly behind the wheels of my chair?
A: Because that’s where she finally gets exhausted after doing all that stuff behind your back
– How do the disc jockeys know how to time things so that the first thing I hear when I turn on the radio is the last ten seconds of my favorite song?
A: It’s taught in 400 level DJ courses at their secret DJ university
– Why is Cattitude’s affection for any given food item in direct proportion to the likelihood it will make her throw up?
A: It’s part of their charm
– Is it a requirement that I will only be able to figure out where I put some pricey item after I’ve gone out and purchased a replacement for it?
A: It’s not a requirement, but it is a "suggestion"
– What cosmic karma ensures that my Mr. Coffee at work will die the final death five seconds after the onset of my most intense caffeine craving in months?
A: The warranty just expired
Very awesome that you will both be able to go!

LOL at Shay’s answers.
Glad you and the Socialist get to enjoy the concert together after all. Spring break for us is this week.
Shame, shame, shame on your coworker. Hope you don’t catch her cold. Let me see her vocal cords, I only need one more intubation. 😉
You know, it is not possible at all to buy any Dar Williams CD’s here. I asked at a music shop and they wanted about a extra $30.00 ($15USA) on top of the overinflated price, to have one sent out!!
Its pathetic, cos the words of her songs and the little I have heard on the net is awesome.
Dar Williams RULES.
You’ll love her show! Even if you do have to go alone!!
