that would creep me out too. My H would just think I was crazy, he doesn't believe in stuff like this. Me on the other hand, I would be running the other way. I will keep you company in the pillow fort.
My random, I am hungry. I just had some carrots and don't want to eat too much since H and I are going out to dinner. Sigh, trying to be as good as I can.

Were his speakers on? When I lived in Dayton, I used to hear ham radio conversations through my tv speakers. It meant they had their signal strength up too high.
pinkplasticdoll - my H's laptop has done that before, and I still have no idea what set it off. I was alone in the house at the time, and it freaked me out too. I ran a full system virus scan to see if there was some sort of bug on it but didn't find anything. It hasn't done it since thank goodness.
My random... I started watching the Hunger Games this weekend and was underwhelmed. I really wanted to like it, but I just couldn't connect.
My parents are camping for the week and I am going to their house after work to do laundry and get their mail, water plants, etc.
This is weird but I'm totally pumped about it. Free beer? Visiting my old running stomping grounds (a gorgeous park with walking trails)? Unfettered access to cable tv for an evening? Air conditioning and a huge house? Yes. Yes and yes.
bullygirl979, that suuuucks. I don't blame you for being prickly over it.
bullygirl979 that would seriously irritate the piss out of me. I would find a nice way to say "hey asshole I am not an office manager instead I do xyz". I am mouthy lately so that might not help you much.
I have corrected him in the past and he still calls me that. Douchebag is leaving us in a month so I'm just keeping my mouth shut for now.
I think I might change my business card title to "Supreme Ruler of the Clinical Realm".

Well yes his speakers were on. His computer just started playing HIS music randomly(nine inch nails then it moved to chuck ragan before I could shut it down), none of the cats were in there and I am the only one home and I was in the living room. I am still very freaked out about this. I am sitting on the couch and considering eating the candy from the bowl next to me so I dont have to move to get my lunch and risk startling whatever the hell it was that decided to play some music in the first place
Am I the only one who feels that salads are better when you buy them? I feel like my salads at home are never that great.
Depends.
If it is the same old, same old then I'm all "purchased salads are so much better!"
But if I switch it up, then I'm all "THESE ARE SO GOOD!". I just bought blueberries and goat cheese from the market. Throw some almonds in and that is a kick ass salad!

First one?
Yes...I think the flow of the movie prevented me from getting invested in the characters. I usually can't hold back tears any time kids in movies are hurt/killed, but I had no emotion for the Hunger Games characters at all. The one place I felt emotion was right before the games started and they cut to Kat's friend back in District 12 who was the only person not watching the games. Something about that stuck with me... Is Catching Fire any better?

MUCH BETTER.
I loved (LOVED) this trilogy from the book side. I watched The Hunger Games and was all "meh". Then I saw Catching Fire. It was SO, SO, SO much better.
My riding lesson for tonight just got rained out. Apparently the whole ring flooded, which is quite a feat, since it's at the top of a hill. I will probably splurge on a pedicure this evening to console myself.
I'm bummed because we will be indoors which means no good courses for me

My bosses are bringing outside stress into our office and it's beginning to piss me off. It probably doesn't help that I am the only person who is in the office building full time that is not related to them. They're family drama is impairing my ability to work... I don't want to be an unfeeling bitch or anything, but it's frustrating.
Apparently, an inmate is suing me. I know he's got nothing but it still makes me nervous.
Details please! This sounds fun. Don't be nervous. It's employment related so you'll be represented and prepped by lawyers that you don't have to pay.
ETA: Was he offended by the penis turtle? Did you put that on display in your office? LOL
I provided (changed) release information to the DA who helped him release early, but only after getting clarification from a supervisor. It was factual information (dates of paperwork and calls to the PO). He's pissed because he might not release early based on the changes HE made on his release plan. And the DA found out, from the PO, I just clarified the dates.
I guess he plans to confront me on it tomorrow. I have state attorneys to represent me, if it goes there, but it's still nerve wracking. I hate having my credentials on the line or my professionalism questioned.

I know it's nerve wracking, but you'll be fine! You survived having your professionalism questioned by Gothchick. This is peanuts compared to that!

I got a pixie haircut today. I think I really like it but I'll have to wait until I style it myself to make sure I can make it look cute too. It feels really good to not have so much hair.
Highly illegal activity going on in my room right now. The cat who is not allowed in our room at all is on the bed with me. I just picked him up from boarding so I figure he deserves extra cuddles. Fat ass gained another pound over the last year. Diet time, again.
A and I are home. The first leg of the flight was rough bc she was a tired crabby pants. It was really hard to leave H down there. I just want us all to be together again all the time. I know it's soon, it's just been a long time now.

motzie, I got caught in a rainstorm on my way home! You'll have to give me some time for it to dry and be re curled. It kind of looks terrible right now.

lmfao....I totally forgot about that! Yeah, I'm a shitty social worker...even though she wanted me to provide therapy on the sly for her!

Report on hair. Pics are going to have to wait until tomorrow when I go to the store and buy a smaller curling iron/flat iron. It looks like I have 80's mom hair right now.
