The board is so slow!

[skib]

Is everyone lurking on ML? Let's liven things up a little bit in here -- what's the best thing and the worst thing that happened today?

Mine:

Best: Eating a chocolate-covered Peep

Worst: Getting ready for my garage sale this weekend.

[peachdragon]

Best: I had a 90 minute nap.

Worst: I brought home the Catching Fire DVD from our library and noticed that the electronic alarm device was still on it.

[littlemisssunshine]

Best: I went under contract and passed inspections on a home I'm buying. My first attempt at a flip. I'm scared!

Worst: I posted a craigslist ad for a rental and my phone blew up. 26 calls in 4 hours. I'm wondering if I underpriced it. At least it seems like it will go quick!

[LoveTrains]

Yeah the slowness is annoying.

BEST: I went to the gym

WORST: My car got towed and I had to pay $107 in cash to get it from impound. See my above rant. 

[IrishBelle]

Best: The hugs I got from DD when I got home tonight.

Worst: I broke my tooth! ahhh!

[Deleted]

Lol. I've been glued to that thread.

Best--I subbed a great spin class this am, and am on my way to teach a second. Dh and I had a super lazy day.

Worst--got nothing done.

Eta-- the moment when I realized I don't have socks in my gym bag

[mskitkat]

Best: a MM AW, my credit score averages ~800. I was SO HAPPY when the mortgage qualifier told me I will be approved for the lowest rates.

Worst: Scraping the ice off my car this morning.

[Pom]

Best: Lunch with the husband, followed by making out in the park like goofy teenagers before I dropped him back at his office.

Worst: My neighbors' keep letting their effing yards get too long and the thistles were horrible last fall and now this year too. With the wind being endless out here, we now have thistles all.the.fuck.over our lawn. I spent 2 hours this afternoon, pulling them out by the roots to try and halt the problem, and now my back is beyond sore.

[niq]

Best: the first half of today's mammoth planning meeting
Worst: the second half of today's mammoth planning meeting

[L]

Best: I just set a new PR on my 5-mile run! And we received H's sign on bonus for his new job.

Worst: I had to deal with a shocking amount of stupid today at work.

[doctorsbaby]

Best: 2 hour nap
Worst: have a cold and feel like crap

[M]

Best: Realizing it's been 3 days since puppy Kona's last accident in the house! I really hope this means she's potty trained now.

Worse: I was hoping to finish my latest research project today but I want to go back and check some data to be sure it's accurate so it's likely not going to be done until Monday now. After this project, I'm going to take a little time before starting another project and work on training Kona to get her ready for showing. I'm wondering if I'm in over my head with this show dog biz.

[rubytue]

I actually don't mind the slowness, it makes me feel like I can keep up during work lol

Best: I finally got my lawyer (on my project) to agree to drop something she has been harping on for months! Man you lawyer types can be persistent lol

Worst: I got a strange email indicating I returned something to a store I've never set foot in. I called customer service and they can't explain why I got it, but that the customer number shown is not me, and not liked to the email address that got the email. It looks like an even exchange, so maybe no big deal. But it's just so damn weird. I guess someone made a typo?

[Deleted]

Best: There are two--I had a massage and I feel SO much better than yesterday (my allergies are bad)

Worst: Decent day, but I wasn't very productive atwork and I forgot to do something minor.

[y4m]

Best: I killed some shit at work. I love killing shit at work. I also got officially promoted this week.

Worst: I am in some drama with my HOA. Dogs peeing on my (privately owned) lawn are killing it and I'm not afraid to bitch about it a bit.

[ewall]

Best: two very productive client meetings!
Worst: virtually impossible sales objective was assigned to me today. blah.

[pattieice]

Best: Attending DS1's preschool's easter egg hunt. It was outside and in 40 degree weather but it was adorable.

Worst: Being a SAHM today. I usually enjoy it but I have had no kid free time except to go to marriage counseling and once to the grocery store and I need a break.

[crashgizmo]

Yeah, I've been lurking the ML thread off and on since last night. Way too much to catch up on!

Best: I had coffee with a new business acquaintance that I think will become a friend! Also had some great feedback on my consulting work.

Worst: My LL is kind of annoying. We've asked him to have someone look at the backyard sprinklers for like 5 weeks now. He texts tonight that he has someone coming on Saturday, but he "doesn't know what time". We will be in Cabo, and I'm not going to plan the dog sitter's visit around his non existent schedule. I told him so and he said "well I guess I'll wait until next weekend. I'll contact the guy and tell him. " I replied "Thanks! "

[alleinesein]

Best: sold my dining room table and chairs and made $100

Worst: Spent $4 on a Cool Lime Refresher at Starbucks and it was nasty.

[womet]

Best: H and I came home, had dinner, and went to they gym.
Worst: The gym was closed for Passover (we go to the JCC).

[knavy]

Best: came home to flowers on my doorstep.
Worst: still haven't written the paper that was due yesterday.

OMG! I thought OP was just referring to ML in general, you just had to clue me in there was a Epic Thread To End All Threads!

An hour later... (And that was just skimming/reading every 10th page)

[Deleted]

Best: eating junk food while vegging with a movie

Worst: when the movie had 30 minutes left, aka the climactic ending, DH realized it was late and he had a busy day tomorrow so he wanted to go to bed, and oh hey SG please don't finish it without me?! Grrr...

Yup, that's pretty much where I'm at- I watched the MTV Catfish show and this is pretty much that IRL. I loved the thread about branded ML items too.

LOL at 2 spin classes being a "super lazy day."

[justjen]

Best: a client agreed to fix an error in one of their pieces that was driving me crazy. I don't know why I had to fight *so hard* for them not to print incorrect information. It was such a little victory

Worst: our boiler is being moody. Again.

[Deleted]

This is random... i got a new phone, the Samsung galaxy s5. I cannot figure out how to create a post on this app. Does anyone know how to do this? I Googled and it said to use the menu button... i don't see that on this phone?

Best: I'm on leave so I didn't have to work.
Worst: H and I agreed to formalize the separation we've been unofficially on since January.

Oh, Stan. I'm so sorry...

[audette]

So, to join in the fun...

Best: Made a good impression at the spouse lunch I attended today. Yay!

Worst: Still haven't packed for our weekend outing, so I'll be mentally fussing about it all night. But it's too darn late to figure it out now. (about bedtime now, actually)

[monsterz]

Worst: We lost internet at home at 12:30 yesterday afternoon, this made it very challenging to work. The hotspot which is supposed to be enabled on my phone was not.

Best: I scheduled a massage and hair appointment for next week.
