I didn't mention it 'cuz I thought I was the only person who'd seen it.

I saw it in theatres, and own it on DVD. Love it.

Do you still have the link handy, by any chance?

Hmmm.

edit: that doesn't work. Try here.

I saw it in theatres, and own it on DVD. Love it.

See, I've only seen it once, on DVD, but at someone else's house, so not able to back over and check details. Therefore, I'm still a little bit Huh-wha? about it. Must to re-watch.

See now, I just got off the phone with my dermatologist who ROCKS.

Two weeks ago she took a 'thing' off my leg. Tomorrow I was supposed to get the stitches removed and the results. I have the chance to go away tomorrow and access to a nurse so I canceled my apt (the doc had said that the lab work was pretty pro-forma, she saw when she took the thing off that it was likely nothing -- I was happy to wait for a letter)

The office left me a ms. to call about the cancellation. I called back. My Doc took the call personally, told me the results (which were fine), and personally scheduled a date before my insurance expires so she could check out the healing.

My doctors rock.

I'm in the running for maybe three positions at this point, have definitely struck out on four, and applied to 5-6 others so long ago I think I can assume I was rejected even without a letter telling me so.

Susan, would it be at all helpful for someone to point out that this means you've sent out something like 12 resumes? And it took me, oh, 90 or so to get my current job, and 70 to get the job before this? I understand you're being more selective than I was and that D.C.does not equal Seattle, but still, it seems awful soon to give up hope.

How nice for you, Trudy.

(Connie too, 'cuz I KNOW she takes no prisoners).

YOu only have to feed them and clean up after them. And cats are more cuddly. Unless they're *those* kinds of prisoners.

Minor one - my last physical

My doctor is so good, I can't even fathom this. When I have physicals, I say, can I have this test done? She just says, sure, without hesitation. She rocks.

Well, you know, you can't blame the office staff. So some kid has a serious allergic reaction to the shot...you really expect them to delay their lunch?!? Get some priorities.

In other words, I am SO GLAD that the little tyke's okay!

It's not that much odder than Shandy. Do y'all have Shandy? Maybe not.

We do indeed have Shandy. The local store was giving out free samples of it last week, in fact. (Actually, Shandy's been making a big advertising push here recently). I was feeling really bad for the young women in the green-and-yellow-miniskirt outfits that were having to offer Dixie cups of Shandy to passers-by, but I guess in a country with 20% female unemployment, the ugly costume is not a problem.

The DH and I are back from our first night out together sans baby since the baby was born. And both the baby and the sitter are still alive! A rousing success all round, but I really need dress shoes with less than 4-inch heels, especially for events on the Acropolis.

How nice for you, Trudy.

Oh, Cindy! I wasn't pooh-poohing! I'm SOOOOO sorry about your horrible scare. I just wanted to give props to the good docs of the world.

t hugs the hell out of Cindy
