Found out Monday night that my Dad went to the emergency room with heart trouble late Sunday afternoon. They admitted him, ran a cardio stress test, took him to surgery, did an angiogram, and put in three stents -- all in about 24 hours. He should be back home today. I am just amazed at the speed of it all.
Jayne: That's a good idea. Good idea. Tell us where the stuff's at so I can shoot you. Mal: Point of interest? Offering to shoot us might not work so well as an incentive as you might imagine.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
Remember my awesome mood from this morning?
For it, I have been rewarded with: people not doing work I need, a client wanting changes on all copy for a project due Friday, a worker who gives me at least 3 excuses everytime I find something wrong in their work, and that same worker not completing ONE SINGLE TASK that I need from them today.

Maybe we could meet in Pigeon Forge or something. I've always wanted to go to Dollywood. WHAT? Or, you know, Knoxville. It's about the same distance. Or Maggie Valley! Hmm.
Pigeon Forge is pretty reasonable for me. We could do a weekend in Dollywood! I went there when I was a kid. It's pretty much what you'd expect a tennessee theme park in the mountains to be.
Can you tell I can't wait to get a car?
Hee. Have you started looking yet?

I've started looking. Spending $400.00 on Lulu this past weekend has set me back a bit, but I'm hoping that my friend Susannah will sell me her Subaru. Barring that, I've got my eyes open.

Cool. Good luck. Hey, did you ever get that email I sent you? Thanking you for the candle and the coffee mug (which I used this morning!)?

Heh. I've always looked longingly at the turnoff to Pigeon Forge, but never had enough time for the side trip.

sevierville, pigeon forge, and gatlinburg make for a really interesting trifecta of outlet malls, theme park, and cabins. It's a nice place to go away to for a couple days.

I did get the email. Sorry I never responded. The Ick has taken hold of me lately, and forced me to be even flakier than usual. Which is saying something!
Ooh, now I'm feeling a Buffista get-together in Pigeon Forge. ::rubs hands::
Once I get my car, I'm going to make up for my five (six?) years of carlessness with a vengeance.

Heee. If you get the chance, could you send me the pictures from the weekend I was there?

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

That's where my bro and SIL went on their honeymoon. I think they stuck mostly to the cabins-type thing.
