Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

In Celebrity Height news, I put Nick Lachey at about 5'8", and Vannessa Minnillo Lachey at not much less. (They were just here at my work with their baby, whom I rate as Cute Baby Cheeks.)

Fun!

I know Connie and I tried to stay polite as long as possible - but the harder he pushed the less polite my brain became. Luckily I was able to minimize how much came out of my mouth.

You were far more patient than I would be.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I have taken to unceremoniously hanging up on people who call to sell me something ask me for money. If they give me a chance to respond I will say no or I'm not interested or whatever, but it seems like they all have scripts that do not allow for any response whatsoever for longer than I am willing to listen them, so I just hang up.

I guess if I'd agreed to have someone call me I wouldn't do that, but if I'd said "call me in two weeks" and they didn't wait, I would not be patient about getting off the phone. "I can't talk now, call me in two weeks" and click.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I have taken to unceremoniously hanging up on people who call to sell me something ask me for money.

Yeah, me too when they don't shut up.

I figure it's not being rude to hang up on them because that'll just stop them from wasting more time with me. So hanging up on them could result in more sales for them.

See, I hang up on them with love.

That's what my sister said when I mentioned it to her. More efficient for them.

The security company dude got a touch more patience cause he saved me from a political discussion with KCD who stopped by to drop off child support.

I guess neither kid has told him I'm buying a house. I just said I was moving and he was surprised. But somehow that quickly deteriorated into how fabulous Republicans are and how stupid Democrats are...geee, thanks for that - oh darn, the phone is ringing, gotta go.

I once chatted with a political huckster for quite a while, and at the end he said, "So, can we count on your vote?" I said, "Oh, gosh, no, I have no intention of voting for X." "Then why did you let me talk to you for so long!" "So you couldn't talk to someone who may have been convinced into voting for X." He bit off a curse and hung up.
