My waxing conundrum of the mo' is that I won't be able to see my regular aesthetician here in the right time frame between now and when my gentleman friend will be visiting over July 4 weekend. The latest I can see her is next Thursday and that's too much time. So I'm wondering if I should go to my friend who does my nails here. She's waxed my brows before and did a great job but I'm wondering if it would be weird for her to do my bikini.
lisah, I have a solution. You should come HERE this weekend because there's a great place near me that does the awesome wax. except for the pesky other coast issue.
He thinks I should switch "the boy" to "my special male friend."
This cracks me up. Our landlord is this very devout, very Christian guy. When we applied to live in our house, K left me off the lease more for $ reasons than shame reasons (long story). Anyhow, I am on the lease now. And the landlord asked K this question which cracks me up: "How do your lady friend like the house?"
Bahahahahaha.... lady friend! which shouldn't crack me up so much as it is a step away from girlfriend, but it does.
We kept saying it to each other all week. So funny.

How great would that be?!?! Would someone PLEASE fix the teleporter issue? It's existence has become more and more crucial this year!

Wish you could all be there!
My current employer is trying to render me useless to anyone in the future by killing me slowly.
today: "can you make some changes to RandomPDF that we made three years ago?"
Sure, can you send me the final Word version?
"don't you have it? The pdf is online...."
No. You got Minion to make changes while I was out. I only have version U. [yes, there were A-U versions].
",..." "no one here has the Word doc. can't you make the changes in PDF?"
Sure, as long as there aren't any major layout issues. there are too many images and placements in the doc, and it wasn't constructed correctly, so it will (and has) blown up if I convert it.
... makes changes.
"can you change the font? We don't like the font that way anymore."
... points up.
"and can you send us a copy of that in Word so we can add a few more images?"
::cries.::
"What is taking so long? this is easy. Oh, and we need to add new footers throughout."
Kat, our neighbors (mostly retired peeps) refer to us as "The Girls."
Sox, do you have ScanSoft?
Sox, I didn't think you worked at my company, but apparently you do. We have the same. damn. problem. all the time.
"and can you send us a copy of that in Word so we can add a few more images?"
Except swap "Quark XPress" for "Word," and factor in the fact that no one outside of the Editorial Department even HAS Quark, so they wouldn't even be able to open the document, *IF* it were possible to convert from PDF to Quark (which it isn't).
I feel your pain. Literally.
ION, we just had our birthday lunch for the June people (::ahem::3days::ahem::), and we had surprise cupcakes*! Not just any cupcakes; Key Lime cupcakes made by the wife of one of my co-workers -- fluffy white cupcakes filled with Key Lime cream/pudding, with fluffy Key Lime frosting, topped off with a wee tiny slice of Key Lime.
Oh. My. God. Cupcake heaven. Every bit as good as anything I had at Citizen Cupcake.
*(The cupcakes were in addition to lunch from Panera and ice cream from Graeter's; we knew about all of those, but not the unexpected cupcakes.)
Those sound like damn good cupcakes.
Oh, Steph, those sound amazing!
Is anyone around that could jump on AIM for a minute?
They made up for a lot of the stress of this week.
