Oddly enough, everything that I wanted to do before I had this baby remains to be done . . . the list is still here and growing. Guess I'll have to wait until he goes away to college. *sigh*

I have resorted to watching wrestling again. Every Monday night, I sit down on the couch with my laptop and a glass of ice water and a snack. I log into Twitter, and I rant with my friend while we both watch the show. It's not the same as I recall it from ten years back, but it kills 2 hours of the night before I hit the hay.I could read a book, or one of the many Popular Photography or

So, I finished reading all 3 books below. I highly recommend Adam's book; FUNNY! Love his daily podcasts as well. I've moved on to some fiction I'd been putting off for a while. And I've picked up my husband's copy of the Dave Grohl biography, which is fun.Today's a lazy day. Well, most of my days of late are pretty lazy. I've been on house arrest since mid-March due to swelling and

I know, you all probably thought I didn't know how to read. I do. I may not read thought-provoking things, but what I read entertains me. I'd say I'm 2/3 or 3/4 through this book. There's no purpose to it, but if you love Kevin Smith, that's all the reason you need to get a copy of this. I've had it in the house for a couple years and finally started reading it before Christmas. I read slowly. I

Hi! How goes it? Crazy over here. Lots going on, constantly saying I need to come back here and write, fighting the "Facebook Killed the Blog Star" issue. *sigh* Oh, and I'm pregnant. So there's that. :)I'm keeping THAT part of my life on the "mommy blog"; so don't worry. I hope I can start blogging again HERE as well. I've mised it. I think of things all the time that I should blog

Hi! Remember me? No, me either. I know, it’s been a LONG while, and considering the content of my last post, you probably thought I’d offed myself by now. I’m still alive, still struggling, but I’m making it. Slowly but surely.Work has been a less than desirable situation for me of late. That sounds silly, I mean, when is work ever desirable for any of us? It’s been more than I’m used to

Since our email server at work was VERY sporadic in its processing of incoming and outgoing message OUTSIDE of the INTRAnet, I've only got 3 days worth of Pod action to share. So I'm going to make up for that by telling you the story of proctoring the ACT at the local university yesterday.

Okay, interview's done! I feel like it went well. There are two open positions; hopefully I'll land one. If not, I will try again next time they post a position. I should hear something in a couple of week, one way or the other. :)

Hi. I have a question for the current administration.*ahem*What are you planning to offer those of us who have kept up with our mortgage payments, having never taken out a second mortage and having made only ONE late payment due to an Internet glitch? Will there be some sort of reward for us since you're going out of your way to assist those who haven't bothered to pay their mortgages in months

I saw a sign today that said "thanks for supporting cystic fibrosis disease."Is it just me, or does that seem like an epic fail?Why would I want to support a disease? Woudn't I be more likely to support RESEARCH for that disease in a monetary fashion? That's what's wrong with the world lately. People don't pay enough attention to details anymore.

Well, it turns out that that promotion I applied for? It's got a shitty caseload. And I haven't heard a word about it since the interview. I'm hoping they hired someone else to take over this monstrosity. I can safely say that I am NOT ready for that type of caseload, and I'll leave it at that. Although the promotion would put me at $1.50 more an hour, give or take, it would require that I obtain

Some things have changed drastically at work lately, and I've been trying to figure out the catalyst. It seems that things were one way prior to a coworker's one-week vacation, and things are a different way since her return to the office.I have two coworkers that I genuinely consider my friends. One of them seems to be avoiding me lately. I have confronted her about it. I asked her if she was

You know, technology is amazing, yet some people find it easier to walk to each individual office and ask if each employee has a John Doe in their caseload. We have a "statewide search" option in our database. You type in the name, hit enter, and the database shows you the caseload to which John Doe belongs. OMFG.

A few weeks ago, I had an "oh shit" moment. A referral drifted across my desk bearing a name I hadn't thought about in probably ten years. I stopped breathing. My eyes bulged. I gasped. I said, "oh, no, I can't work this one." I had the referral reassigned to another caseload so that I wouldn't be connected to the case.As per the norm during the very late 90s, a young man fancied my best friend.

"Abdominal and Pelvic CT scan . . .Impressions:1. . . . 5. Absent spleen" Where did it go?Irrelephant suggested that it went out for cocktails with the appendix, which was very entertaining; but I wondered what this meant. Has she had her spleen removed, and can you live without a spleen? Was her spleen hidden from view by another internal organ? Did it shrink? Rupture? Was she born without

She cannot grasp the concept of copying text from the .pdf output from our system and pasting it to the letterhead Word document saved to her hard drive. Do you know what she does? She prints the .pdf formatted letter on plain paper on the network printer. Then she prints the blank

Yay! Another stressful week is over!!!! I'd like to officially request a drama-free week beginning . . . NOW!Monday - I didn't get a chance to use my iPod today. I drove 2 and 1/2 hours to retake a test I'd originally scored a 64 on. I improved to 78, which is now good enough to land a promotion should a position open up.DID I MENTION THAT RESIDENT ASSHOLE IS RETIRED NOW??!?!?!?!? I didn't?

Last week, an individual came into the office to apply for assistance. During the interview, I noticed that he tended to stare out the window, sort of zoning out, while I asked him questions and he answered them. It was very . . . well, rude, actually. Later on after his counselor finished interviewing him and he was gone, she brought me the file to enter the application into the system. This is

I took the second test this afternoon, and I have to say that I was MUCH more at ease this go round. I actually recognized some of the items from previous employment and from college Business classes. I may actually have a shot at this position! Keep your fingers crossed!In other news, rumors of Resident Asshole's recent termination are running wild at work. I still have no confirmation of

That's pretty much how I felt today around 1:13 PM. See, I applied for two city jobs, and today and tomorrow are the days on which the city officials conduct the civil service exams required for those two positions. The test I took today consisted of 61 questions taken straight out of any chapter on tests in any college statistics textbook. The problem is that I haven't looked at such a book

Several weeks ago, I went on a shopping trip with my buddy Detroit to a town about an hour and a half south of my hometown, because the mall and stores are MUCH better than those locally. I know, sad. Anyway, we stopped at the Old Navy in that far-away town so that I could try on a purchase a maxi dress, which I did in record time. Then this shit happened:On 5/30/09, I travelled from [here], LA,

A couple of weeks ago, a coworker was busy roaming the halls, recalling the events that caused her to be half an hour late for work. This activity took roughly two hours to complete, which put her right at lunchtime, where in she retold the story at least twice to the group of us who'd already heard it once each individually. But I digress.It seems that she was belly-aching over receiving a $25

And not from Obama this time.Sorry, I couldn't resist.*ahem*I have begun the search for new employment. While I am still currently employed, I am seeking either advancement in state employment (i.e. another state job which provides me with increased income and the absence of my current supervisor) or a position in federal government. I currently have two applications active for each potential

Or in my case pebbles.I just ordered some clearance-priced bras from the VS website. One of the three might fit correctly, but it's worth the price of return shipping to NOT have to dig through those dreadful pink bins located within the brick-and-mortar during their semiannual sale. The sizes are never in the correct bins; takes forever to find your size; complete madness; no thank you.My

Correction, I need a small brace. After reading the vague directions telling me to measure my palm from the base of my fingers, I reviewed the photo which shows how to measure the palm. It's horizontal, not vertical. D'oh, I need a small! NOW I order. :)

This was the week from HELL, people. I know I've said that before, but this one really took the cake. Supervisor is a narcissistic louse and ended the week by calling me a liar behind my back. I cannot handle this place with him in it any longer. Time to move on.Monday: "Hold the Line" by TotoTuesday: "Mary" by Sarh McLachlanWednesday: "Breathe" by TaprootThursday: "Wonder What's Next" by

I went out to get the mail this afternoon, and I have only two questions to ask.1. Who did this?and 2. Why?Seriously, this wasn't in place when I went out this morning to photograph the flowers in the same garden. My husband is working out of town, and Loki can't use the Internet without opposible thumbs to order something like this. I can only guess the nieces and nephews were at my in-laws'

Check THIS out. "The biological parents of X are reported to be the late Mrs. X and Mr. X. The couple was married, and they divorced when X was 4-years-old. X lived with her mother until 8-years-old, when her mother died. She then lived with her father until she was placed in agency custody at age 13. NEITHER PARENT IS REPORTED TO HAVE REMARRIED." Well, I would hope the deceased mother

I came up with a bright/lame idea, depending on if you own an iPod I guess, earlier this week when I docked my iPod, powered up, and shuffled the songs to begin the workday Tuesday.I'm going to keep track of my work week shuffles and post them here.

Hey. I'm still alive. Just been neglecting you . . . and my jumbled thoughts . . . and this blog.*sigh*There's so much drama in the LBC, it's kind of hard being Snoop D-o-double-g. I can't seem to avoid the drama at work.

An Alexandria pedestrian died Wednesday morning after a motorist hit him and a disabled vehicle on La. Highway 28 East.According to State Police, the dead man was identified as 21-year-old [Marcus]. The accident happened around 7:30 a.m. when a 2006 Honda Civic, driven eastbound on La. 28 East by 20-year-old ["blinded by the sun"] of Pineville, drifted onto the shoulder and hit [Marcus]and one of

4/20/09 - "Somebody smells brassy." Can anyone explain what the hell that statement means? No? I didn't think so. My supervisor is clearly delusional.4/21/09 - My coworker got the job she applied for with another agency. My supervisor is out of the office attending "training" today, and so far I have not been approached again about filling her position . . . but I'll keep you all posted.4/22

I have finally reached the point that I don't like my supervisor AT ALL. I was able to separate his lack of supervisory skills from his "person," but now the line is blurred, and I just flat out don't like the man.4/13/09: This is a conversation between me and my supervisor after lunch today regarding a very simple task that he and the other supervisor have been given to complete before the close

or Bringin' Up Old Shit, whichever.4/6/09 - I'm pretty sure my supervisor called me fat today. Not outright, but subtly, disguised as a safety issue. I wore some cute little high-heeled sandals, and the moment he noticed, he was all up in arms about them. "Be careful walking around here in those shoes, now, they're not very safe or sturdy, they could cave in at any time, you know, I mean they're

You ever seen one of these things?That's a big-ass Band-aid, right? Ghetto, even. That thing ripped every piece of peach fuzz from my hand when I removed it. "What was it covering," you ask? Oh, a TINY little puncture from a butterfly needle that the vampire nurse used to finish taking my blood . . . from my fucking hand!!!!! Honestly, a normal Band-aid would have been sufficient.

He got a little spooked by me and my camera hovering over him, and he ran around the back of the glider. I caught him peeking at me through the boards and snagged this shot, which was my favorite of the day yesterday. I love the aqua

I have some things saved up from my week to post, but I forgot to email the Word document from work to home. I can't blog from work, so I try to "jot down" things I mean to tell you.
