[Deleted]

this is a poll.

Patrick, i'd appreciate your input on non-pedicure issues.

Leave work early! It's such a treat to leave early and you deserve it.

Leave early! And do NOT back out. Get some well deserved pampering

i like any answer that implies that my selfish self-indulgence is deserved. oh yeah, baby.

[hisno1girl]

Closed toe shoes will wreck your pedi. Go after work.

[flex]

Go at lunch and wear the flippin' flipflops as back-up!

Get this done NOW before you drop this kid!!! lol

This is a weird thing to expect patrick to fix. Is it a big enough deal to have a dev waste a few hours on?

um, that was tongue in cheek.  and he's the boss of everything and, while i like GBCN, i have not memorized the names and titles of all of proboards employees and their respective roles and responsibilities.  and also he spent at least an hour here a day or so ago chatting about airline tickets.  so, my guess is that he will ignore the tag entirely or indulge it in his off hours.  because a message board tag isn't a summons.

in conclusion, i think your post is weird.

You have a poll, but would you rather:

1) Not ask the poll question()
2) Not provide people options to answer the poll
3) what?

you're here!

honestly, and i don't know anything at all about computers or the series of tubes, but in my fantasy world when you make a poll, the poll question goes shazaam into the subject line of the post and then you can post the poll without having to put text into the body of the post message (or a separate poll question).

yes, i fantasize about easy poll posting.  who doesn't?

The subject line is very limiting in terms of how much of a question you can ask.  The actual poll question field is much larger to accommodate long questions.

Omg, NO! What if she runs out of gas?! She'll be stranded.

Well,she's already started the appropriate course of action- post about it on the interweb, first and foremost!

I really wish you considered asking Patrick for advice on the pedicure issue.  lol  I voted after work btw.

VITAL MANI-PEDI UPDATE: i went after work, just got a pedi because i was short on time. aahhhhh, so relaxing and wonderful.

then i went to pick up L. she was so excited to be leaving class at the same time as one of her friends that she leaped into the air . . . and landed on my toe. ruining my pedicure and causing me great pain. this time it was the OTHER toe from the one she destroyed in august.

i mean, really. do i need to wear combat boots just to parent my child?

i swear to you, i almost cried.

[LeggsBenedict]

Ouch.  I can't make it better, but I did give you a few hot potatoes that you can pass around.  Just click on them to toss them to people and maybe get a special badge

AWESOME! thank you!

now, let's just see if i can figure out how to do it.
