Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'd actually be OK with him saying he was working from Texas at a time like now when Congress is out for the month, but just to be on vacation? Must be nice.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Can he telecommute?

Or maybe I should ask, has he ever been near a computer?

Now that we've discussed people praying for you, how do we feel about someone saying "have a blessed day"?

Or is that a DC thing (cause I never heard it before I was here)

Well, you know, he's brought various world leaders and such down there to TX, and I'm sure Condi's not on vacation, so you'd think he could get some stuff done.

What is even happening?

I've never heard that one. I don't think it would bother me any more than Have a nice day. Hokey bothers me, but nice intentions don't. Then again, it doesn't bother me when (at other places) people sign their posts to me with "Blessed be," either.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

how do we feel about someone saying "have a blessed day"?

Nyegh. Although when I've heard that, I've mentally interpreted it as "blessed be", which leads me to Willow's "wanna-blessed-bes" snark, and then I go about my merry amused way.

That's true, it's not like the important people in the administration are on vacation.

I've never heard that.

Although I'd be tempted to ask, "You mean, in a Jesus way, or a goddess way?"

Or else I'd say, "I'm not a cheesemaker!"

Now that we've discussed people praying for you, how do we feel about someone saying "have a blessed day"?

There used to be an old lady who lived across the street from my cousin's house in NO. Everytime we passed she would tell us "God bless you." We called her the god bless you lady. Never bothered either of us. It seemed like sort of a "have a nice day/safe passage on your way" sort of thing, and it was nice.

how do we feel about someone saying "have a blessed day"?

Feels the same to me as someone saying "have a nice day".
