I was watching "I Love Lucy" last night and recognized one of the characters as Nick the Bartender from "It's a Wonderful Life." So out of curiosity I looked him up on IMDB since I didn't know his actual name.
His name was Sheldon Leonard. He had acted in some other stuff and he was a producer as well.
Then I read that the two characters on "The Big Bang Theory" are named Sheldon and Leonard because TBBT's producers are fans of the actor/producer Sheldon Leonard.
One of my employees called a client a douche in an email and copied said client on it by mistake. Bonus round, she also said that she and I both hate the guy (all statements were factual). All this on my first day back from vacation. Welcome back to me!

I'm annoyed by our weather this week. I was finally getting into a good running routine and then every day this week, it's been a blizzard outside by the time I was able to go. We live on a dark country road so there was no way I was going to risk getting hit by a plow. Regardless, visibility was so low that I don't think I could have run anyway.
It's finally stopped snowing so we'll see if I can make it out tonight. It's only 5 degrees out though so I'm not sure I want to go out in that either :/
I'm crazy tired today. The last month or so, I've taken to falling asleep around 8:30pm in the big comfy chair in the living room before retiring to bed for real around 10:30. I need lots of sleep!
Last night the ILs stayed with us to attend a wake last night and funeral today for H's uncle. The wake went until 8pm, then they wanted to go out to eat. We didn't even get home until 10:30, so I wasn't in bed until after 11. I wake up at 5am to get to work on time.
On top of that, the dogs woke up at 3am wanting outside. I'd normally ignore them (they make it through the night and then some 99.999% of the time), but one of them dropped a fart so bad that it smelled like they crapped in the bedroom. No way was I running the risk that one of them actually needed to go out and poop.
Long story short, I'm wiped and need a nap. God, I'm a sad sack of potatoes right now.
I keep reading these posts about buying cows for the meat and it just blows my mind. Like going and picking out a cow and having it slaughtered and getting the meat from "your" cow is so foreign to me. My only experience buying meat is in the grocery store. Actually, one time I was really adventurous and ordered from Omaha Steaks. The first time I heard of cow buying was through MM.
The woman next to me wanted me to switch to a middle seat. I said no and now she is giving me dirty looks. I pee like every 10 minutes and don't want to jump over her each time. I wish she would stop looking at me.
My outdoor kitty got bit on his leg. It is super infected. Took him to the vet yesterday and he's on some high powered antibiotics and pain meds, but they are talking about amputating his leg on Friday unless there is a huge improvement He's in my laundry room now and has taken over the dog's bed, which I hope is a good sign and he's managed to eat and drink a little.
Poor kitty! I hope he makes a speedy and full recovery. Do you think you can bring him inside?

Who would have ever said yes to her? She is a weirdo.

He's been with us for 8 years. Every winter we have tried to make him an indoor cat and he hates it, so we give in and let him back out. He does have a nice hay shed to stay in. He is inside for now though, he's already complaining about it, but that's just too bad, the wound needs to stay clean. If he has to have it amputated, I don't know what will happen.

I'm flying up to NYC this weekend for a distant relative's engagement party. I'm excited about wearing a new dress that's been hanging in my closet for a couple weeks, which is the only reason I'm putting forth any effort to attend.

((hugs Jigsy)) and everyone else who needs them. Congrats Charky!
I ran out during my break to bring coffee to our workers and they had already left for the day. Now I'm annoyed because 1) I wasted my break and 2) they weren't finished but they left. I know it's cold out, but we're on a timeline and they left after working less than 4 hours! Sit in your truck and warm up and then get back to work!

What?! As in give up your aisle seat that you paid for in exchange for her crappy middle seat? Oh hell no. What was her excuse?
