Eureka!

Our beloved electricity came back on at 4:40 pm today. WooHoo!! No more Green Acres electrisicall from Mr. Generator!

Wastin' Away Again in Cuba Libreville

I'm sure most of the USA is unaware of this, but St. Louis has been thrown back to the Victorian era via a series of thunderstorms. We have been without electricity since Wednesday evening. Luckily we have a generator or else I wouldn't be typing this blog entry right now. It's just like Green Acres... if I want to plug in the hair dryer, I have to unplug the lamp, or else the generator stalls. I am having trouble adjusting to this "electrisicall"(as Lisa Douglas would say).

Oops

Mr. Generator is our friend

Can't make it through a 3-day power outage without junk food and booze:

Mmmmm, Cuba Libres! Who says power outages have to be unpleasant?

Valuable Workplace Lessons, Part 587

Workplace Lesson #3,666: If you work with pranksters, don't go on vacation for two weeks. They will Saran Wrap your office.

They will have enough time to Saran Wrap your office door too...

Workplace Lesson #3,667: Don't trust the boss to keep office pranksters in line.

Workplace Lesson #3,668: After you return from vacation and clear away miles of Saran Wrap from your office, don't be a good sport and let your coworkers wrap you in Saran Wrap. It's also a bad idea to let them wrap you to your chair.

Workplace Lesson #3,669: Don't expect your coworkers to assist you when you are overheating inside layers of Saran Wrap.

Workplace Lesson #3,770: Coworkers will not help you clean up any prankster debris.

Note: These photos are from 1991. I am too lazy to have a job anymore.

Oh Baby

I am hopelessly irrational about Randy. Today he's Hot Slut of the Day on DListed.

I've Waited My Whole Life For A...

Took dog to the vet for gross bloody poo issue. Knew from previous dog ownerships that this might have something to do with butt glands. I was right. The anal glands were full, causing much discomfort for my poor dog. So the vet takes my dog away and deals with the butt glands in another room(thankfully). Also checked poo for organisms and lo and behold there is some crazy something-or-other. So he gives me some liquid medicine for the something-or-other and some ointment for the dog's poor ass. Total cost: $118.58. But it was MY LUCKY DAY!







A fecal discount of four whole dollars! WooHoo!! I wish I had known about fecal discounts sooner. If I ever need to see a gastroenterologist I'll be sure to ask for one.

How I feel most of the time.

My Finest Moment

The start of a diva flower-girl temper tantrum.
