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

Hi Shir!

Ann, that's a ferret.

Hi, Shir! Just go ahead and start talking.

Also,

How does one format a reference to a Web site? Like I did some research for a project by looking at Monster.com. I looked at all the functionality, so not a specific, single page. Right now I have:

I do like SuziQ. Cite to full URL, then date. So, to your cite above, add, say, .../abc/1234/xyz.php (Mar. 17, 2008). Also print out the page and hang on to a copy just in case any Powers That Be ask questions.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Welcome, Shir.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Hey, Shir. I love your name.

I had the stupidest morning on record today. On the way to get gas on the way to work I notice I forgot my lunchtime meds. On the way back home to get the meds I run out of gas and then have to walk to not one but two gas stations to get a can of gas which I then spill on my hands and the sidewalk and even a bit in the tank.

I hate calling in inane in the morning.

And we have shrieking co-worker a couple cubes over. I at least wish she was being scandalous or interesting.

Ah, well. Back to onslaught of work.

Hi again, Shir!

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

Welcome Shir.

Oy ita, that sounds decidely unfun for a morning.

I have made my fairly boring daily task take up almost the whole day. YAY!

Hi Shir!

Phew, just found out what my tax return will be and it is good. I worry every year.

Phew, just found out what my tax return will be and it is good. I worry every year.

That's good news. Until I get my refund or they cash my check, I'm always nervous. I got my MD refund just days after filing electronically, but California says it can take up to 8 weeks to process a non-electronic return. Aaargh!

Also, welcome Shir!

Thank you all for the warm welcome (so many of you!). All those exclamation marks... really, I'm touched.

And thank you, ita. I'll tell me parents you liked it.

I think I might need a Word Sandwich intervention. I have printed out the alphabet to help me make quicker choices.
