I kind of thought Dick Clark would live forever. In a "possibly he's mostly plastic by this point" sort of way.
I finally got my list of sites! A little intimidating, because there are TWENTY of them, which is a lot more than I'm used to. However, only half of them are up and going, so we'll see how many I end up needing to visit frequently.
Bad news, no sites in SF.
Good news, eleven of them are in the LA area--I'm definitely thinking F2F shouldn't be a problem! Three are randomly in the middle of California (Santa Maria and Santa Barbara), and then one in Salt Lake, one in Wenatchee (pain to get to) and two in the Seattle area (whew!). And one I probably won't ever get to go to in Hawaii (my boss now lives there, and apparently they have her do anything that crops up in Hawaii!)
Happy birthday, beth and bonny!
happy b-day beth and bonny!
I have an interview on Monday for a job I'm qualified to do, but it requires a polished sort of person.
I don't think I'll get it, and will likely humiliate myself in some way during the interview, but hey, they called me, right?
When I heard Dick Clark had died I thought, "So that's where Cheney got his heart from."
Happy Birthdays, beth and bonny!
Hands up: how many people thought he was already dead?
I saw him do a cameo on last year's New Year's Rockin' Eve. He looked and sounded like death warmed over -- like he'd had a stroke and recovered only 85-90% of his speech ability.
yeah since the stroke Dick Clark's age was rerally obvious.
sad though.
I knew Dick Clark could be propped up and could make somewhat understandable sounds, because they propped him up for about 10 minutes New Year's Eve. It was pathetic.
I wonder if they found the painting in the closet.
like he'd had a stroke and recovered only 85-90% of his speech ability.
That is what happened, several years ago. Maybe as many as 10?
I am annoyed by how many people I have to tell things here -- no one talks to each other, apparently. So telling the boss and most-directly-related person a piece of news does not mean that the news will get to another interested person. @@
What is Junior Achievement? They seem to come to my kids' school all the damn time and as far as I can see it's some capitalist indoctrination gig. Am I wrong?
Also, we got a letter from a realtor in GA whom we don't know, with a printout of the MLS listing for our house marked up in red, and his business card, and "I know why your house didn't sell. Call me." This is asshole behavior, right? He's trying to poach us as clients? Should I tell our existing realtor? Or call him up, as him why he thinks the house hasn't sold, and then ream him a new one?
