I meant to work this into today’s entry somehow. I ran across a marvelous quotation this morning.
I just wanted to note it so I’d remember.
After I returned to the apartment complex after work yesterday, I went immediately to the management office to complain about the partially painted doors on my floor (they repainted the hallways last weekend, but neglected to put more than a sloppy base coat on the fire doors on my floor, and they look like crap)….
I’m trying out a new comment board so people can have the instant gratification of leaving comments once again. I’m also playing with the look – this is much closer to what I want, but I’m not yet satisfied. I’m having a grand time rearraging the virutual furniture though.
LintaSossy had this on her most recent diary entry. I was intrigued. After all, I used to be wicked at Monoploy. Your score is 30 The most frequently received point is 4 (4/10) Take the Monopoly Piece Quiz! I’m afraid it’s the utter truth.
Well, MRG, I’m taking the whole separate entry route for this one! I’ve actually wondered about this myself. As per MoonriddenGirl’s comment on my prior entry, what is the best way to reply to a comment? I’ll be damned if I know. For any of the diaries I frequent regularly, I usually check comments on…
Thanks to MoonriddenGirl for providing the link to Animal Totem Quiz. Unlike last week’s religion quiz, I am not prone to take this one seriously, but it was still fun to do. Your totem animal is the EAGLE. You may find that these regal birds appear in your dreams. If they haven’t yet, look out…
Decision by indecision
can’t wait to hear what the front office people have to say about this… you GO grass!
~~~
hug’em and kiss’em, i’m doing the same.
Yea, I hear you on the extra cat loving. I feel guilty complaining about them in yesterday’s entry. It’s a shame about Shaka.
Ah, a little "revenge" is good regarding the 3" drop. All from 1/8th inch of rain? Good grief.
Your excursion sounds nice, even better when someelse is driving. I have to admit, I’m abit nervous about driving on my trip next month.
Shoddy workers in more than one sense, it seems.
I would just say to the office: Please make it beautiful. (wait for response) thank you.
I feel for you*
Boston intimidates me also
Three cheers for Mr. Blake.
The drop is pretty plain to see in the first photo. That will be a lot of fun to correct.
Maine has roads?
Huh.

Oh, good grief! Did they put those pavers on marshmallow? Such a small area, and with foot traffic only – they must have made no attempt to prepare the area properly.
Yes, don’t waste a precious moment with those kitties. And get The Socialist to help prepare the place for his friend 🙂
Good quote. I like that. Your ex garden reminds me of my parents’ sidewalk. They had newly paved it about seven or eight years ago because it was cracked and old. It looked great. That winter we had a strong rain, and then it all froze. The sidewalk buckled into horrible shapes and cracked worse than it had before. They were less than pleased…
Yeah, I let the flies out for biology class. We are doing fruit fly experiments, and we need fresh, virgin fruit flies or the experiment will be off. Fruit flies become sexually active 6-8 hours after hatching, so we can’t use them if they have already mated, because they retain the sperm cells and those can show up in later matings.
We have 4 people in our ‘teams’. I, the 8:00am, let them all out because they’ve been in the tube for about 11-12 hours. The 12:30 person goes in and counts the newly hatched flies and sorts them into a male or female tube, depending on sex. The 4:00 person is supposed to do the same, and then the 8:00pm person is supposed to do the same. Then I get up in the morning and let them all out, and we start over.
I bet you understand more now, but if I bet I had just said ‘fruit fly experiment’ I wouldn’t had to have explained anything. lol
I HATE unexpected company like that.
I would have had to say….
"I am sorry, but I am not up to having unexpected company. We will HAVE to make it another time."
That is plain and simple.
They should get the idea.
