Back from work -- it's going to be very, very easy. I'm going in on Monday to get a laptop I can use from home or from one of the cush'n'cozy reading rooms at the campus library for an hour or so a day, with Matilda cozy in the Baby Björn or the bouncy seat. Woot!

Now, off to take pictures of all my dresses. Of which there are many, exactly none of which zip up past more than about the bottom two ribs of my ribcage.

Where I grew up, Pigs in a Blanket was the dough wrapped hot dogs, with crescent rolls replacing the dough in some households.

The bacon showed up as a variant, usually in the ones with the dough.

I seem to recall Pillsbury advertising PiaB in one of their commercials in the 70's.

The updates IT did last night on the work computer included removing Yahoo Messenger. I rarely used it but I feel so disconnected without my little yellow smiley in the system tray.

Your Cell phone microphone can be tapped, even if you have it off.

Yay for easy work days! What a relief, JZ.

Vindication - Step 1. Corporate HR remembers the raise resolution from last year the same way I do. She will be contacting my supervisor.

To be continued....

Much relief that the work is going to be easy, JZ. Easy and Matilda-friendly, that's the ticket.

I used to like ham. Now, nsm. In fact, with the very infrequent exception of bacon, pork products are off my List of Acceptable Foods.

A chicken flock, however, flees at my merest shadow.

Dear Self,

When you go 6 months without wearing your glasses as you should be when you read and work at the computer, OF COURSE they make your headache when you finally do so.

DUMBASS.

Love,
Self

Awesome, Suzi.

I've been catching up with the thread and offering appropriate support, exclamations, and good thoughts along the way, even though they haven't made it into a posting box.
