Friday Random Biz

[meshaliuknits]

So, I used a rubber band loom to make a wee Iron Man doll last night. It was a totally NAILED IT experience since his arms fell off. BUT I know what I did wrong now so I can make it suck less when I give it another go.


In campaign news, I've identified the Death Panel Czar who will be appointed for my administration:



I've also identified members for a committee on improving policing:





(I think I really need to blow $20 and get those shirts)

LOL! No.

It's just really starting to hit me about Butters. I'm going to miss my little shadow dog.

DH is doing a bunch of prep work for a minor bathroom renovation we're starting on Sunday. I'm so excited. We're painting and replacing the sink/ vanity and getting a new cabinet and mirror.

If I weren't going out of town this weekend, I'd come give you real life hugs and give Mega some loving.  We will have to do that soon.

Hugs Pixy.


My anxiety is getting worse. It used to be triggered by events but lately I feel like there is no reason for it to be this bad. I keep telling myself that my life is good right now and there is no reason to feel this way but little things set me off. I need to get a haircut but I have to find a new person because my stylist of 8 years moved out of state. Just the thought of calling someone new is make my heart race and I have to do breathing exercises just to dial the the damn phone. I need to find a new therapist too but my insurance makes that difficult. If I wasn't trying to get knock up right now I would just go buy some weed.

grrrrrarrrgghhhh

But on a good note, we bought tickets to go see Book of Mormon next weekend. Since we are taking vacation days and not going anywhere we decided to go a show.

Creepy internet hug

I'm back at work today after having been off for a month. I have no system access yet so I'm just watching the news, alone, in my yoga pants. In other word, HEAVEN

Hugs pixy0stix

Remember my coworker who was getting a mixed breed dog from a breeder? Her puppy died before they could pick him up.

[downtoearth]

Hugs to pixy0stix - poor Butters. And so sorry about your coworker's puppy. Mixed breed means labradoodle or like that, right?

Hugs to @slayerkate, also. They need walk-in counseling - like urgent care - to hold people over or even help them find a therapist.

Today is Friday and I'm excited to be done with the week. I got sunburn/tanned after two days in the field in 95 deg weather for work (with lots of sunscreen) and I'm sorry not sorry b/c I like not being translucent white, but I know skin cancer kills and could happen.

[mrsukyankee]

pixy0stix, Barney is sending you a big hug.

[IIOY]

::hugs:: Pixy!

Yesterday afternoon was a giant cluster. I spent all damn afternoon putting out one fire after another. It was exhausting and unpleasant and frustrating as hell and the type of day that made me glad I can't see the future, because if I could, I never would have gotten out of bed.

Yeah, it was a "designer dog" - bernese poodle mix. The breeder is telling her that the pup died from a bug sting. I'm not so sure.

[downtoearth]

I feel like this today also b/c my belly is squishy, but I could eat all the things...

[ttt]

This is totally silly but it made me laugh today:


Vilsack Reprimanded For Spending Work Hours Writing Corn Blog

[secretlyevil]

I just saw the rest of yesterday's randoms. I'm so sorry about Butters pixy0stix. Lots of hugs.

[StrawberryBlondie]

Also, I am so exhausted. I think I got like 3 hrs of sleep last night.

New employee is in her mid-40s, early 50s. She keeps talking about how her dad gives her money. She's only been here about 15 min filling out paperwork and has mentioned it 3 times already.

You should tell her that the person she's replacing paid for your lunch every Friday.  

[pixy0stix]

Correction - she's 56.

She also told me that her husband and her had a huge fight on the way here and he got out of the car and just started walking.

Wooooo drama.
