And now is the time on Sprockets when we laugh uproariously at the people submitting last-minute emergency requests, who then send me additional e-mails requesting that I notify other people when the work is done, because they're leaving the office early.

shrift, I think your doctor can just do away with bloodwork. He can diagnose your high blood pressure simply by spending a day on the job with you.

I agree with Cashmere.

That sucks msbelle.

In theory, I like the idea of chicken pot pie, but whenever I have one I end up not liking it. Maybe I have just been eating the wrong ones.

I hope you find new internets to explore and conquer, bon bon. Don't forget to bring a flag. t random Eddie Izzard reference.

I love chicken pot pie. In fact, during one particularly stressful month last summer I ate chicken pot pie and half a pint of Ben and Jerry's for dinner ~5 nights a week. Not a great weight loss technique, but smothering the stress under yummy fat and carbs was really effective.

Totally watching the Leary Xmas thing.(Maybe I'll feel festive by comparison.) Would still date Vince or Jon, but they *are* looking rough these days. Ruby should be OK, Allyson.

Frequently, and today was no exception, I am fooled by chicken pot pie. I think it will be just like regular pie, because the crust is oh-so- delicious looking. And I am rather disappointed by actually eating a gooey mass of overheated peas and repurposed chicken and can't finish it.

Pretty much, yeah.

They've got me for three more hours, and then I am gone until Monday, and there's nothing they can do about it! Mwahahaha!

I never liked chicken pot pie - 'til I made one myself -- way better than anything I ever bought. and one year at my BIL's house in VT - shortly after tday dinner, we made turkey pot pie.mmm..... and then the sweet potatos became pie...mmm. It was fun teaching men how to kitchen cabinet cook.

I think this is it for me, too. They could and should be good, but in reality, they aren't.
