My boss had the idea of parking the company car inside the building over the holidays. Turns out the car is about half a foot too long. But now the inside of the building smells of car exaust. I mention this more for the bizzare factor than anything.

I didn't know that a sousaphone (sp?) was a marching tuba. I thought it was just what the dork on Fame played. Turns out it's not just the dork, but the dork and a co-worker.

20 minutes until I can get some lunch. In case anyone is keeping track. Which I doubt.

Someone on the night shift filled out a ticket claiming someone in "Pre-Surgery" was having problem with their printer. Since we don't have a pre-surgery department in the building and I was unfamiliar with the user's name, I called one of the techs at our Tulsa hospital in case the ticket was meant for them. It stumped him too. I called our Surgery department and they have no one by that name in their department and all their printers are working fine. The person who wrote the ticket has long since gone home and to bed so I can't determine if she mistyped some critical piece of information or someone on the night shift was really bored and decided to call in a crank support request. I just closed the ticket with "Unable to verify existance of user or department."

Naw, I was gonna throw it away. The smoke that was comming out had a burnt plastic smell to it. So there must be something going on besides food burning.

Ah. Still worth a look at the little removable plastic/micah whatever panel. Don't have to do anything with it after that.

I just found out from my local recycling center than I can toss the rest of a microwave in my trash can if I remove the magnetron. Then I can either drop the magnetron off at the recycling depot and pay $5, or I can see if an appliance store will take it off my hands for equal or nothing.

zenkitty thank you so much for that link. I've marked it for Christmas gift money purchasing.

Aw, poor WBB! Robin, my experience with stomach flu (or whatever it was) matches what Frankenbuddha says. Get WBB some gatorade and/or jello type products.

Or, use it as the start of your Magnetron Death Ray(tm). Remember, the country that controls magnetrons will control the world!

It's 58 degrees here. I may be giddy.

Great ideas, Lori, will do! BF had not vomitted in 25 years. Broke his puke-free record last night. I just got off the phone with him and commiserated both for his feeling so bad and for his streak ending.

ION, I am listening to "Traditional Christmas" music on launch AIFG.

That sucks, Robin. Feel-better~ma for him. I broke a 15 year streak when I got sick last year. I hate doing it enough that I'll force myself to lie completely still and be miserable rather than make the trip to the bathroom if at all possible.

In hopefully puke-free news, I now have lunch. I ended up getting a meatball sub even though I've been eating way too much junk as it is lately because I had a craving for something with tomato sauce.
