On my busride home I have seen three billboards for Riunite Lambrusco. This is a wine I associate with women who grew up in the 50's. (my mother and her friends drink itW Has there been some sort of revival?

So yesterday the Satellite Company calls to ask if it would be cool to set up my dish Tonight instead of sat morning. I said ok, but I'd have to cancel an appointment (thinking hey if they are installing for someone else in the building at the same time this will be faster). So I canceled my other appt, and went with the Sat tonight. They just called saying they can't do it because they thought there was already a dish on the building and there isn't. So now I'm back to tomorrow AM and have a canceled appointment for tonight. The stars are really aligning.

On the upside, and I'm sorry I can't answer your question Sophia, I BSed enough at a wine tasting yesterday they offered me a job at the store.

LOVE the Tracy Letts thing!

Waiting for the rain to stop so I can go home. It won't last. No sense in getting wet. Burning downloaded tv to DVD for my later viewing pleasure. Cleaning out my Inbox. Skipping to the end of Buffista threads I am so far behind on.

Things not to do at 4:30 on a holiday weekend

Try to get shit set up for Tuesday morning that has not been set up even though it was supposed to be, and realize that since Monday is a holiday and you are on the west coast, even though it's only noon your time, no one is in the office on the east coast, and there is no way in hell you are going to have access to the databases you need in time for your visit on tuesday?? Yehahhhhhh....

About to send off some CIOMS reports to Brazil.

Heh. I actually know what this means! Unlike all the crazy computer talk upthread. I'll bet javachick knows too. Go crazy drug company people, whoot!

Hee! That's great.

I can almost, almost remember the Riunite TV jingle from my childhood. Did it rhyme "on ice" and "so nice" or something equally awful?

Thanks for the earworm!

t gives JZ evil look

Right now?

Listening to classical in a waiting room and posting from my BlackBerry.

My work here is done!

That is, in fact the Ruinite jingle.

I also remember "paul masson can sell no wine before its time" I think my recall of so many jingles and the fact that I say them a lot causes my students to think I am crazy. I often tell them "You're all doing very well" like young Mr Grace in Are you being served, but they have never seen it.

Also embarrassing is telling someone unfamiliar with the movie Babe "That'll do pig."
