**yawn** **stretch**
Good morning and happy Thirstday to everyone! Val, so good to see you back again and glad you are feeling better. Take it easy though. Leave the kitchen duty to me. ;) :D A DOTD, DONE!
Corinna, Iced Tea, DONE!
Breakfast Burritos all around this morning. Make sure Mario only gets one. We are running low on diapers.
Karen, nice looking cake. Gini and I have a wonderful mixer you could have borrowed......:D :D
One could also play Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars in honor of the new Mars Orbiter which will be launched...sometime.
Good Thursday morning to everyone. Wow, there sure is a lot of racket going on in here so early in the morning. Mario what are you wearing???
A piece of Oggie's cake and a cup of hot coffee sounds good. I will check back in later for another one of the DOTD........boy are those ever good..............
Lots to celebrate here - K'Cee - a clean bill of health, Kelly on the mend, Val feeling better now that she is unstapled.......Sammy going home soon..........it makes me very happy!

'Morning everyone! It's raining!!! Yippeee!!!! We need it soooo bad!!!
I love breakfast burritos!! Don't know how well they'd go with Baileys though.....:p ......but they go perfectly with a coke! ;)
I'll save some of that "out of this world" cake for a mid morning snack. ;)
Slick, in the US, from what I understand, they have to give you the option of making payments on the special assessment instead of requiring it in one lump sum. I know that doesn't make it any easier to swallow, but at least it's a little easier on the pocket book. I hate special assessments. :rolleyes:
Corinna, special assessments are for condo and townhome owners because technically they are the owners of the building and are responsible for it's maintenance and upkeep. There is a montly assessment fee which they are supposed to put a certain amount away each month so when major repairs are needed, they can just go into their capital fund for the money, but sooo many associations don't do that, so when major repairs are needed they come up with the lovely "special assessment." :rolleyes: Ultimately it's for the owner's good because it's maintaining the building that they own, so it's keeping up their own property and they should get a return on that when they sell, but it's still hard to stomach a "special" assessment when you're paying a "monthly" assessment every sinking month!
Ok, enough of my rant, I think my burrito is almost done....:D
good morning everyone. Thanks for getting the bar up and running Slick. So sorry about the assessment - that's the sort of thing that makes me leary about associations.:eek:
I just heard the the launch of the Mars orbiter was delayed, so intstead how 'bout we listen to some Pink Floyd Dark Side of the Moon? sounds perfect with the DOTD.
Good Morning fellow Space Cadets!!!
LOLOLOL...
Take me to your leader????
Slick,
Are you sure it's not a episode for Home Makeover?
KK, Great song...too Bad that things didn't turn out so well for Major Tom..
Smokey,

AHHH, Ziggy and the crew.....Great Stuff!
No Mario,

Coriina,
Why does my enrollment in the Star Fleet Academy surprise you?
DDM,

What's this about staples??????
I'm gonna give you all a Team Done!!!
I gotta head off to work......:rolleyes:
Two more days of 'NO BOSS', May as well enjoy them...
See ya'll later on!:D
Reminds me, I heard on the radio the other day that they want to start phasing out the shuttle program and start on a new program that would start using the moon as a base of operations for all space exploration. Is this the beginning of us starting to populate the moon? :eek:Quote:

Hey all!!
Blarrrg I feel yucky. Well...not really yucky, just beat and burnt out. I need way more sleep.
I'll just take a nap with the kitties in the corner.
Houston, I have a problem ... checking in from "BeanTown" where I've been working all week at the 10th Annual Drug Discovery Technology & Development Conference. No, they don't give out samples :o :eek: Only two more hours to go, so I'll hold off on that drink and really have to make this fast (I am supposed to be working, after all). Met up with Mayor Karen and Paul Tuesday night for a wonderful dinner with lots of laughs and stories. Flying home this evening after having a lovely lobster dinner at the "No Name" restaurant on the Haaahbah (that's what I'm hoping anyway). I'll check in when I get home (assuming evening storms don't delay me too much). Behave yourself Mario, at least until I get back....
Hey Mario - look at this - it is your Mom checking in.............she is asking if you have been behaving!
Just got a call from Bean Town too - my little niece is bored.
You know how it is when you are eleven and summer is hot.......and your friends are all away.
I told her to take the big red pill - the one with the chocolate covering.......and I was sure the boredom would go away.
After a nice long chat - she was off to make me a bracelet for me to wear upon my arrival in Bean Town.
I saw that we won't be rocketing off to Mars right now............
Guess I am ready for a drink - it is 1:30 pm in Boston.................
Yikes - yesterday when I was surfing the internet, I found a job posting for one of the people that I work with. Gee - wouldn't that be a rude awakening, to see your job posted while you are still working there? They didn't even do a blind ad - it lists the company name right there.
I'm keeping this to myself (I'd love to blab, but with the current state of office politics it would be a major mistake on my part to have this come back to haunt me) - besides, the person in question burned out a while back and now only makes other people suffer for his misery so its probably good that they are finally going to let him go. At least I think its him - the position could apply to five other people, but he has been the one to be in trouble the most often.
give me a double.:eek:
Julie, that reminds me of a situation that occurred at one of my client's offices.
They were having computer problems at the studio, so they turned on a guys computer as he had already gone home.
What came up on the screen was his complete resume - and all of the people he had sent it to just that very day. The whole staff sat there and saw it. Needless to say his resignation came soon after.
Yes, another of those yummy rum thingamajigs please.

AWWWWW, I can just hear it now "Auntie Gini, how many days will it be til you arrive?? Please, please, can't you come over now??" :)
I remember when my nieces were that small. Every time I visited, they each has something for me. A bracelet, a drawing, or some small trinket that they bought for me. I still have them all and treasure them to this day. Gee, this brings a tear to my eye. :(
Debbie, thanks for your explanation. I couldn't have said it better myself.
Julie, nice to see you in dry pants for a change. (Gee, will you ever live it down??) :)
I'm just going to say a DONE! for everyone else...work is busy this morning. Will check back this afternoon.
Laurie, thanks for checking in Sis and I'll expect an email when you return home and get settled. :)
Woo hooo!! I'm so excited! We're working on Macromedia Flash for school and I just figured out how to make mini animations! We have to make "splash animation" for our homework and now I know how to do it. So tonight, all I have to do is go home and do a good one and clean it up and bit and I'm done with homework for this week! I always love when things finally click and I figure things out. Especially when it's not Sunday night and homework is due in two hours and it still hasn't clicked yet! :D
Also, it's still raining here! It's been raining all day now. A nice soft all day rain that we've needed soooo bad. :D
Julie, good thing you're not here or you might have wet pants again! :eek:
I'll take a DOTD, but only a single for now. That way I can actually be productive tonight and get this homework done already.
