Mal ,'Serenity'
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.
Ah, but what are the chances of someone skimming that and then going somewhere else? And if I have an opposition to Amazon's online shopping, why am I going to use their services?
Actually - i did at lot of shopping at other places useing wishlists from amazon. But I like the double bonus for my money - stuff and politics I prefer.
Why Monday's Daily Show was a repeat.
We get bonuses (if at all) sometime in the spring. We shall see.
Had a meeting with my boss in which she finally raised the illness question. I reminded her I'd not taken a sick day this whole time, and in fact was working from the ER when I had to go in. I explained the whole 1-3 (yeah, we're up to three some days) migraines a day thing, and that I was making sure I was getting everything done -- I might not be present, but I was dependable.
It's hard to read her, but when we discussed other work responsibilities I could take on, she did mention taking into account what of them I could do from home.
We get our bonus and raises on 12/31.
My Looniversity never gives bonuses. Ever. I used to love the $25.00 personal check I got at my first job for a Christmas bonus.
I still haven't spent the bonus I got a year ago, which was supposed to go towards fixing up my apartment.
bonus - DH is at an 'all-hands' meeting now. His boss said it was nothing to worry about. So I suggested that maybe there was a bonus. We laughed and went on with life. ( 3 years ago there was a 3% wage cut and a wage freeze ever since)
Oh, that's so sad, ita.
Do you already have a large flatscreen monitor?
I have a small flatscreen monitor, 15". It's sufficient for my purposes. I do, however, want a new computer desk. Hmm.
How much is a Tempur-Pedic mattress?
2,800 lottery tickets.
Hmm. I think not: I'd never keep track of the numbers!
I keep planning to get regular house-cleaning and then don't. That could be an option.

Given the hours your DH works, Beth, that's insane. I do hope he'll find a better job soon: he deserves it.
That is so sad! (TDS story.)
ita, I think that you are right: although there are tricksey people who will use the Amazon wishlist just as a source of intel -- others will buy from amazon because it's just easy.
(Could not think of a female Canadian sufficiently famous to make this a nationalist FCM.)
Anne Murray?
