Well at least your garbage is being picked up! Here in the Chicago area, no garbage pickup for 3(?) days now! It's not too bad yet, and thank goodness it's cool outside to keep the smell down.... Hopefully they'll settle things soon...well...at least soon enough that all the trash is picked up before we get back from vacation anyway.

And I was laying in bed last night, thinking of the Thirstday party here, and I couldn't believe I forgot to tell one of my all time favorite jokes! So here goes.

What do you call a dog with no legs?

Ok, you ready for this?

You don't call him 'cause he's not going to come anyway!

Bwaaaahhhaaaahaaaaa. I love that joke!

Ok, back to work for me. I've got a ton of things to do around here. For some reason the boss thinks that just because I'm going to be gone everything for the next 3 months needs to get done now! So have a great time next Thirstday and I'll talk to you all when we get back. Oh, and I'll have a drink during happy hour next Thirstday and do a silent toast to you guys. Why silent you ask? I think we've already discussed how this would be so hard to explain, especially to people I don't know that well.

Take care everyone and I'll see you when we get back!
