First off, I am so hoping for a snow day tomorrow. Let’s see if the weather men get it even half right.
Dancer Girl turned 11 today. I wish the lady from ebay would at least answer me if the present I won has been shipped. The dresses looked really pretty for the American Girl doll Celtic Mama got her, but pretty soon, I am going to look into what options I have for getting my money back.
PHB was going to let us send out a mailing of over 3k with a typo in it. I don’t think he realizes how many departments on campus it would make look bad. I also wonder why the speicif department that made us the postcard missed it in 2 times. I never thought we had to proof spelling, just wording. So Monday was wasted for me as he had told us to still label everything. Witha came to my rescue as I had “held” the post cards for her approval on Tuesday. Only one was given out and she hasnt mentioned the typo but did tell me as we were walking in that she loved them and thought they were pretty.
Warm fuzzy of the day…saw Ice Queen’s Lady in Waiting today. Poor thing, we were standing there in the cold and she wanted to make sure to get a hug from me. It was almost as if she wanted to cry because she had to go in the office. I wonder if I can come up with a “warm fuzzy” somehow for her. Lady is having a hard time at home and Ice Queen isnt making it any easier on her. On another note, Ice Queen even said hi to me today. That is a rarity.
Wonder if Quiznos made me, SB and Witha sick or if it is the virus of the month. I have been luckier than SB and Witha. I have been able to at least keep stuff mostly down.
I am using a balance ball as a chair right now. It seems to be working well. I can tell I am having to keep muscles tighter.
No, this isnt the Wednesday edition on Thursday Thoughts. They will be coming tomorrow.

Ever had a comment made to you that you understand in principle but not the way it was said? I will abide by the request, but it is going to come back to haunt the person making it. I already go out of my way for this person. At some point they are going to hear no, and be shocked.

Sleep is a good thing. 12 hours should be enough.
Why do some faculty assume that staff have all the time in the world?
Why is traffic always worse on Fridays?
Pray for Radio Man, he is losing his father to pancreatic cancer. He lost his mother to it almost 20 years ago.
Dating seems to be like interviewing for a job. The “resume” is very important.
Why can’t we have some real snow?
Rachael Ray makes interesting stuff, but I have a problem with her presentation of it.
Coffee is good.
Fleece and flannel together is cozy. Thanks Revog!

Fencer wrote that the internet and blogs are a open book. I agree. BUT there are some things that need to be said for certain people to read and not others. Hence the passwording of an entry below.
Basically, I was writing about Emergency and how I had some major concerns if we had a relationship that were to get serious. Well, I listened to my heart, which for once agreed with my head, and told Emergency that I did not want to continue to see him. I wrote the entry the night before I talked with him. I wrote that for me, and should have just saved it as a draft. I don’t want to hurt anyone like I was hurt by a blog entry by Anime Man.
Emergency took the news better than I expected but also confirmed somethings in what he said as he was telling me it was ok.
Now the question of the night, why do men still want to be friends after you tell them, or they tell you that you dont want to be romatic anymore? Haven’t they learned it does not work out in a friendship if it didn’t work romantically? Is it the theory that if they are still close, you will see their wonderfulness and change your mind?
Thursday Thought will be late this week. Basketball tomorrow night.

Yay! CHK sent the w-2′s out early. With how simple my taxes are, 1 person, 1 job, that’s it, I can do the free e filing. I am quite happy too in that I am getting a much bigger refund from the state than I expected.

I met Bridges for a wonderful day of talking, shopping, pizza and ice cream. She is a much better secret keeper than I am, especially for something like this… She’s pregnant!
Bridges didn’t want to tell anyone because she had a miscarriage last year, until a certain point and I certainly understand. Hmmm, wonder if I have enough yarn here for an afghan?

Why do people who live here or go to this school or that school think that they are above the rules?
BRR it got cold! 35 degree drops in one day are not good for me.
Attraction is an odd thing.
I hope SB feels better soon.
PR’s Momma will hopefully do the right thing tomorrow and guarantee she can stay in a decent place where she is well cared for.
Piper Dude has really cold hands.
Why doesn’t water taste better?
Why do you consider doing things for a funeral that you wouldn’t at any other time, like let a virtual stranger into your house?
Even basketball teams can have good and bad days.
Every week, I say I need to do laundry, sometimes it gets done and sometimes not. It will get done this weekend as I am running out of clean jeans.
It’s weird having someone who wants to talk to me regularly from a romantic stand point.
January is already half over. Where did it go?

Celtic Mama calls me today at work ( an odd occurence as we normally talk over an instant messenger while I work) to tell me that someone I only met once died. This would be ok, but he was young, same age as Piper Dude, 20. The account of what happened was that the boy was sleeping, snoring, and when his friend went to wake him up, or at least make him turn over to stop snoring, the boy was not breathing. What a shame. This was a young man finally getting his life back on track.
Always makes me wonder to have a younger person die suddenly like this. Do the Higher Powers (insert your choice of name here) want this specific person earlier than everyone else? Are the HP stopping them from a terrible fate? I knoiw the grandparents and they are some of the nicest people I know. I can’t imagine the grandson was that different. Maybe at some point I will get to ask my questions…

Fear can make a person do weird things. In my case, I have a fear of letting a man get close to me since usually I wind up being hurt somehow. (3rd date is past, he gets a name…) Emergency has somehow figured a way past the outer shell of a stand offish and he said almost prudish seeming, to find more of the inner me. The me that too few people see or want to see.
Somehow Emergency sees things in me that I don’t. I think with him I might get used to compliments, since they seem sincere.
Am I going to go from one extreme to the other, no. BUT I think maybe the ice around my heart might melt some and let someone closer.
