I wish I'd had #30 a couple of weeks ago, when our church was trying to decide on a slogan for the annual stewardship campaign!

My payroll clerk called in a couple of weeks ago and said she couldn't come to work because her doctor told her not to wear any underwear that day. Actually, there was a good reason for that, but it sounded funny to hear her say it!

"I'll get you, my pretty - and your little dog, too!"x}>

Looks like I picked a good week to be super busy. Didn't have much time to do any "forum foraging" until this morning, and everything seems to be working fine for me!

My spouse and I are both natural-born talkers and learners, so we discuss both of our jobs quite a lot. I think he's got a fairly good handle on what I do and why it's sometimes frustrating but generally rewarding. He's a sales rep for a computer f…

I couldn't agree with you more! My husband, the love of my life, is 5'10" and over 350 pounds - definitely an eye-catcher (he's hard to miss even in a crowd). He is intelligent, funny, articulate, empathetic - and I have no idea whether he's got sym…

The old addage, I think, is that grey hair makes men look distinguished and women look old. In my case, I agree. My grandmother had snow white hair in her 30s, according to my mother. I also started to grey in my 30s, but wasn't ready to appear old…

I took a job in 1988 that was supposed to have relocated me (and my family) from a suburb of Minneapolis to LaCrosse, Wisconsin. However, a week after my final interview (but before the job was offered), that company was taken over by another compan…

I'm with you, deez! Grew up in Minnesota, so the winters here in Omaha seem pretty mild by comparison. However, it doesn't take much for the natives to go scurrying for jackets and gloves. I'm always one of the last ones to give in to dressing for t…

Best wishes, LindaD! When you're feeling better, let me know if you want me to send you any of my crocheting patterns - I have several that are great even on pain medication!

I'll be glad to join the support group! I've got two female employees (one in her 50s and the other in her 60s) who are going at it right now ("Mom, she's lookin' at me - make her stop lookin' at me!) I have another employee in her 60s who collects …

I agree with Katrina - I'm a "look before you leap" type, and have never left one job without having a new one to go to. I'm also not a quitter - I tend to keep looking for things to change, get better. But it sometimes gets to a point when the dre…

Yup - me too!

Actually, Tallulah isn't that bad a choice - of Demi Moore's three daughters' names, I like it a lot better than Rumer or Scout!

My daughter has a friend who had a baby girl this week - fortunately. In their family, the oldest son always carries the middle name "Lee". Her favorite boy's name is "Brock". I can just imagine a guy going through life with first & middle names…

We've started using Sam's Club/Walmart gift cards. This has worked well for us, since we also include retirees, many of whom have moved away to warmer climates. We tried the frozen turkey route years ago, but it's difficult to manage, particularly w…

My spouse and I went as Drew Carey and Mimi a few years back. Spouse already wears thick glasses and is well rounded - all he had to do was buzz cut his hair. I found a gaudy flowered dress and some awful jewelry at the local Goodwill store, padded …

My spouse and I were traveling on Sunday evening, and had planned to be at our hotel by 7:00 that night for Survivor. Unfortunately, we got on the road late, so it was about 7:45 when we got to the hotel. Naturally, I'd been counting down the mile m…

According to an article this week in USA Today, the "all-star" show is going to include 18 contestants from the first seven shows. They're not officially saying yet who'll be on the show, but rumor has it that Rupert is among them. The show will pre…

I haven't had time to keep up on the Forum lately, so I missed the heads-up about the two-part episode - I was really bummed out last night that I have to wait a week for the other shoe to drop! I, too, was really surprised that Shawn was voted out…

"Chronologicallly gifted" - I love it! xclap I'm going to start using that instead of "mature"!

Wouldn't have missed it for the world! I never watched the first series, but got into it big time with the second one. Now, I'm bereft on Thursday evenings in the off-season! I start work at 4:00 am on Fridays, so usually I'm in bed by 8:00 on Thurs…

Good grief - an employer who actually WANTS to express appreciation to an employee for a job well done over the past five years!?!?!?!?! How wonderful for you! If you're really afraid that you may have a full-blown panic attack, talk to your doctor…

Western Montana - I was born in Missoula, and I always feel as if I'm "home" whenever I get back there (even though we moved to Minnesota when I was six months old!) I've always said that if I ever see a job opening in Kalispell, I'll be there in a …

I've achieved a first - I had a posting deleted by the Forum Police! Mea maxima culpa - however, the names in the post were for real, lest anyone think I made them up for their shock value!

Then, there's the proposed merger between Yahoo and Netscape - Net'n'Yahoo.

I have one tatoo - in a place where virtually no one will see it, and it has a musical motif. I got it when I was 39 years old - going through either a mid-life crisis or a long-postponed adolescent rebellion. My first spouse and I were on shaky gr…

It's not all MA or southern - I've lived in Minnesota, Iowa and Nebraska, and I name my cars. I currently drive a dark green Jeep Cherokee Classic, which we call "the Shoebox". My spouse drives a silver/blue Intrepid with a built-in security system …

Just stopped in today to check on how your're doing - sounds like you're doing great! One of the things I forgot to mention that has helped me when I quit smoking was to immediately have my teeth cleaned - I guess jaw surgery is a little bit more r…

Hang in there - the first 72 hours are the worst, then it starts to improve. One word of wisdom - don't overdo it on sugar-free hard candies. They have a rather obnoxious side affect, not unlike an out-of-control whoopee cushion! Try eating celery …
