DanaC - I think you should use this opportunity to write a good poem or short story for the Creative Expression forum.

DanaC 08-12-2007 04:13 PM

I could do that....or I could get slowly more drunk and eat whatever snack food there is in the house...I do believe there may be a meat and potato pie in the fridge (pre-bought).

Griff 08-13-2007 06:39 AM

We had about 4 close calls cycling through Bath, NY on Saturday. If you can't see, don't know the rules of the road, or don't have any idea how much space you take up stop driving! Oh and if there happens to be a bike lane adjacent to a steady stream of cars don't creep along without any signals staring fixedly at prefab homes completely unaware of what is happening around you...

I'm better now.

Shawnee123 08-13-2007 12:18 PM

Staff meeting in 10 min. Why do i have a feeling something will go down? Then again, why do I care? The world is my oyster!

DanaC 08-13-2007 12:21 PM

Nothing...nothing is upsetting me today...very strange.

LabRat 08-13-2007 12:37 PM

Some dumbass emailed a pipebomb threat into the university today. WTF. A mass email went out a little while ago warning to look out for anything suspicious.

DucksNuts 08-14-2007 12:10 AM

Master 2yr old has croup and a roaring fever....hes really very ill.

He has been on me or carried by me since 11pm last nite, finally he has crashed in his bed and I am about to fall in a heap.

Master 4yr old is watching Narnia and been pleaded with be good for an hour.

Griff 08-14-2007 06:34 AM

I hope you were able to get some rest, DNs.

Ibby 08-15-2007 05:46 PM

First day of school today.

Urgh.

Cicero 08-15-2007 06:19 PM

All my art of the past 2 months has to be recreated because no one listened 3 months ago. (work)
Makes me pissy.

Clodfobble 08-15-2007 08:32 PM

The baby's got diarrhea, and a really vicious diaper rash to go with it. I would let him go commando to help the diaper rash, but then we'd have projectile poop on everything...

jinx 08-15-2007 08:41 PM

A thick layer of http://www.mybirthcare.com/_images/lansinoh2oz.jpg or http://www.bigelowchemists.com/images/AACALENOINT.jpg always helped when my kids had a nasty rash. Poor little guy...

Clodfobble 08-15-2007 08:42 PM

What is that second picture?

jinx 08-15-2007 08:49 PM

Calendula ointment, Boiron

DucksNuts 08-16-2007 05:21 AM

Is it a viral or fungal rash Clod?

I swear by Daktarin Cream over here...the equivalent over there would have miconazole nitrate in it.

You will notice a big difference after one use of it.

Clodfobble 08-16-2007 03:56 PM

It's not a yeast infection, I know that. It's definitely connected to whatever's causing the diarrhea, though he has no fever. I'm using Desitin on it (main ingredient zinc oxide,) but the problem right now is he's pooping liquid every 15 minutes, so I can barely keep up with the cleaning and re-applying. I've been pretty satisfied with Desitin in the past, but it needs at least a little time to work...

Griff 08-16-2007 04:18 PM

We used Balmex when the lil' ones needed something that really stayed on. Desitin was our normal day to day cream.

lumberjim 08-17-2007 12:31 AM

use the lansinoh. its like wax.

Griff 08-17-2007 06:08 AM

I gave you the wrong product, but I don't remember the name of the pink stuff we used... it really didn't come off. prolly try Jims.

DanaC 08-17-2007 06:29 AM

The pink stuff. Wasn't Drapolene was it?

Griff 08-17-2007 06:30 AM

That doesn't ring a bell... maybe a week on the beach will sharpen my mind.

rkzenrage 08-17-2007 12:55 PM

Spent a long time setting up and making a video, hurt a lot, wanted to do it outside.
Used my old lapel mike (never had a problem with it)... fucker was broken.

DanaC 08-17-2007 05:21 PM

Filming outside? You must be feeling a little better then *smiles* good to hear it.

rkzenrage 08-18-2007 12:01 AM

I have a little porch outside my office that my chair goes to and had some help, but you are right. I am.
I needed some outside air after the last week + of being inside.

DanaC 08-18-2007 04:21 AM

Of course you did. Being stuck indoors indefinately is a real drag. I'm glad you got a bit of air ;)

Cloud 08-18-2007 09:38 AM

Clodfobble: how is your little boy today? My suggestion for devil diaper rash is soap and water, and air--assuming that the projectile diarhea has resolved itself.

And, um . . . you named your children "Master?" :D

Shawnee: Paranoia Strikes Deep!

Clodfobble 08-18-2007 10:03 AM

Meh. The diarrhea is still around. But still no fever, so the doctor's office just says keep him hydrated. The diaper rash is considerably better in the mornings, but by evening it's usually back in force.

Perry Winkle 08-25-2007 03:32 PM

I'm in the crash-mode I enter after spending an entire week with my girlfriend. I really wish I could find a way to get around this funk. It never fails to occur though: Spend a lot of time with Her Lovely Self, end up wallowing in a funk for a day or two when we have to spend a few days apart.

rkzenrage 08-27-2007 03:50 AM

Bed bound for a few days.

fargon 08-27-2007 07:53 AM

I went to wal mart this morning, and if that ain't bad enough the cash register locked up. The lady in front of me was only buying tic-tacs and we had to spent 20 minutes debating weather or not to open another register.
Why is that the people who scream customer service the loudest, do the worst job of it? Also why do I have to make allowances for these people?

LabRat 08-27-2007 09:14 AM

Classes started today. Blech. Traffic is going to be a bear for a couple weeks.

I called the Dr's office today to make an appointment for a checkup. Got #8 this morning.

On the upside I did get a line on some cranberry extract capsules to help with the more frequent UTIs due to procreation practice. And I should be able to ride any and all rides I want to in Disney next month.

Stormieweather 08-27-2007 09:49 AM

My vacation...just two friggin days off...Thur and Fri of this week...the first and only vacation I have planned this year...is very likely going to be cancelled. Not because of anything I did or didn't do, but because my co-workers cannot get their shit together.

We have a major preliminary budget due on Friday, the 31st, and I have to input the data to the forecasting software prior to then. Not one person has returned their data to me for input or even responded to my reminder emails, other than the VP, who stated that we WILL meet this deadline. :mad2: :mad:

bluecuracao 08-28-2007 08:54 PM

I spilled a little beer on my keyboard the other night, and now it stops working if it lays flat. I have it propped up on one end with a bottle of Elmer's; so far so good (fingers crossed/knock on wood/rub my Teddyscare's belly).

Shawnee123 08-29-2007 08:47 AM

I had hoped it was just single instance of a fashion faux pas, a fashion risk gone horribly awry, if you will. But no, I have now seen 2 coworkers with asymmetrical hairdos. These women are in their 40s, my age range. I have not seen any of the young fashionistas sporting this reprehensible hairstyle that I hated when it was all hip and cool in the 80s when it came around. These are women who tend to be all fashiony, too. Would it be wrong to tell them I think it looks teh ghey, or should I just walk up with scissors and clip the offending strands off one side of their lop-sided little heads? [/OCD needs symmetry rant]

Oh, and just learned one of my fave admissions counselors accepted a position at another school. Happy for her, sad for us.

Griff 08-29-2007 08:48 AM

I think you should take secret photos so we can all join the mockfest!

YES.

Trilby 08-29-2007 08:49 AM

But, the mock-fest first!

Shawnee123 08-29-2007 08:49 AM

:lol: This could get bigger than Mullet Mocking!

LabRat 08-29-2007 09:14 AM

I'm almost out of my favorite tea. Please see the food forum.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

Shawnee123 08-29-2007 04:18 PM

K, so I snuck up on the HairBear twins, and tried to snip, but their heads snapped the other way so quickly (presumably due to the weight of the longer hair on that side) that I missed completely and they asked me what the hell I was doing. I sneaked away (think sneaky Warner Bros cartoon Bugs) and pretended like I hadn't even been there. I dont' think they bought it.

Griff 08-29-2007 04:25 PM

hmmm... maybe this subset of humanity is more cunning than mullet boys?

HungLikeJesus 08-29-2007 04:50 PM

I couldn't decide if this belongs here or in the Boys and their toys thread.

Camaro Mullet.

xoxoxoBruce 08-29-2007 05:24 PM

That's not a Mullet. He looks like a musician to me.

HungLikeJesus 08-29-2007 05:32 PM

Bruce, I agree. I mostly like the text. There are better pictures elsewhere on that site.

bluecuracao 08-29-2007 06:40 PM

Yeah, that one's definitely missing the 'business in the front' part.

jinx 08-29-2007 06:47 PM

The hair isn't half as bad as the jeans.

What a drag getting UTI's from procreation practice in the first place. Bet you wouldn't be so keen on going to Disneyland if *those* rides worked the same way the one does at home. Or maybe you would. Hmmm....

Shawnee123 08-30-2007 02:29 PM

So, I'm cruising along, letting my inner mullett run free, perusing mullett websites... when what do I find? Could it really be?

Shawnee123 08-30-2007 02:43 PM

Awesome! It's a whole famn mullett damily!

Cicero 08-30-2007 02:51 PM

I'm scared of my inner "Karaoki Mullet". Well I'm not sure I have one........but it would be just like me to end up with one after all the shit-talking. So I'm trying to be quiet right now....very quiet.

jester 08-30-2007 03:00 PM

Love me some "Joe Dirts":p

Trilby 08-30-2007 03:02 PM

gonna have to get a needle biopsy of my left tit. Not really looking forward to that.

Flint 08-30-2007 03:10 PM

Fluoro, CT, or US-guided Bx?

elSicomoro 08-30-2007 03:24 PM

Never had a mullet (or short-long as we sometimes call them here)...thank God. My hair has essentially been 2 or 3 styles for the past 14 years.

US guided. I saw the mammo--doesn't look good from that standpoint (the mass has "legs"; not nice and smooth-edged) and the US today showed a signal in the mass.

Flint 08-30-2007 03:29 PM

Mammo is such a vague study, and US to a lesser degree (depending more on the tech); that's why they go in.

At any rate, at least you're not living 100 years ago; where one day you'd just wake up dead.

Trilby 08-30-2007 03:31 PM

yeah. Deadness is just so...still.

Flint 08-30-2007 03:33 PM

Bottom line: they don't know what it is yet. They're troubleshooting, but they haven't even determined if there is a problem.
