I wonder if you used styrofoam peanuts, if you could also find one of the injection foam things that shippers use to pack stuff to create a pillow.

Pooled Money Market Account.

I am guessing this doesn't have anything to do with Scrooge McDuck filling an Olympic-sized pool with money and then doing the backstroke in it.

Pooled Money Market Account. I really have no idea what to do about this but I need to come up with something.

What do you mean by "represent in a signature block"?

Try it and report back in the name of nappy-time science.

It would be so cool to be a nappy-time scientist.... Now I'm trying to think of a good name for a publication... Journal of Nappy-time Science or somesuch....

Ooh, good idea - we have some of those.

I have the overnight shift tomorrow night, but after that I have a week off. Yay! Except that week off is filled with a desperate attempt to get my car to pass inspection, get to the courthouse to tell them my car is legal, a dentist appointment and hopefully a large filling on Wednesday, and a doctor's appointment for Hubby on Friday.

Someday, dammit, I will simply get to rest.

Aargh. What is it about today? I'm gronked beyond all comprehension. I would seriously like to curl up under my desk right now (except I know what's been on that floor).

::sweeps everything off of Frank's desktop onto the floor, thus creating a space for him to curl up:: Ta-Da!

I'm having a good day. The weather is gorgeous -- with sunshine and lovely cool air and I've been puttering around the apartment. Actually, so much so that I forgot to take my am meds until just a few moments ago.

ION, I have NPR on and Diane Riehm (sp?) spoke about the Gingrich incident because apparently, Gingrich is making claims about why he left etc on his website that is contrary to what happened. She didn't say what his claims are but she says that his people contacted the producers of her show wanting to get on - rather last minute. They agreed to do the full hour - which is typical. Then, even more last minute they tried to back out of doing a full hour. But, because they didn't give them any time to get a replacement - the producers of the show said no. So, the people connected at the show thought it was settled. And you guys know what happened. Diane Riehm said that had they known that he was going to hang up - they would have opened the phone lines early so that questions from listeners could have come through. (I wonder, could it be that Gingrich didn't want to answer questions from NPR listeners?)

I am so much more ungronked this morning than last.

In fact, I'm looking forward to going to work.

sumi, any updates on Ivan?
