Now I did a job. I got nothing but trouble since I did it, not to mention more than a few unkind words as regard to my character so let me make this abundantly clear. I do the job. And then I get paid.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I was gonna run out at lunch and see if I could find something cute to buy. Not that I need anything. Instead, I checked my credit card balances - ugh. needless to say, there will be no spontaneous shopping.

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

hey, it's your birthday. they're lucky that you showed up at all :)

If I hadn't, I would have missed the flowers and the Nordie's gift card. My boss is the ROXXOR.

msbelle, I'm sorry about the lack of shopping. Can there be window shopping?

Given the temprature outside, spontaneous combustion would be more likely.

I wish I had done that. It seems it's get rid of the summer stock sales time. I bought a pair of shorts, two t-shirts, a cotton sweater and two silks scarves at lunch. I didn't need any of it! To be fair, they were all under $10, except for the shorts, which were $15.

I have all these plans on how to spend money on some sensible electronics (and some fun stuff too.) Except this month was another vet bill, so even though there is cash on hand, I just get freaky about spending even more money. So ....maybe next month. Which made wandering through Best Buy very annoying yesterday.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I'm not allowed to do any more shopping either, because last night I won 2 ebay dresses that I was sure I would be outbid on.

At least they were from the same seller, so I saved on postage.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I have been outside briefly, and I actually think it's less gross here today than it was last week. It's hot and sunny, whereas last week, it was less hot but completely soupy and grey and NAST.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

So, PR watchers-- scandal is going down today! It's unclear to what extent this is a spoiler; it's previously unknown information about one of the contestants: [link]
