I want the femme-bot on the Heiniken commercials.

Right now I'm looking out the window at the construction site next door. Caterers are preparing to serve an early Thanksgiving lunch to the workers. Ten round tables with white tablecloths await the men. The sun glints off the silver serving trays.

Good for them!

RickyMaveety · 11-20-2008, 12:23 PM

Very nice of the construction company. Kudos to them!!

Slite, please take it easy for a bit. It sounds as if the last three days put an awful strain on your body.

Right now I'm trying to work out why I have to be ill at the same time as the tall and hairy one. At least we're mostly co-ordinating our dashes to the bathroom so we don't both try and get in there at once...

Thank you. The hubby says a few people where he works have been ill. Hopefully it'll shift soon.

zelda_pinwheel · 11-20-2008, 07:08 PM

slite was ill as well but he's back now. he was ill for 3 days ; maybe you've got the same bug. how long has it been for you ?

ShortNCuddlyAm · 11-20-2008, 07:30 PM

This is the second day. Stupidly thought I was feeling better and had some toast earlier.

So if it is the same as Slite had, I'll be well for the weekend

(i really hope i don't get it next... maybe i should barricade myself inside and not leave the house at all for the next week or so.)

Well, if it's the same think I had a coupla weeks ago -- maybe we are transmitting it THROUGH MOBILEREAD. Wouldn't that be novel ... virus transmitting over the internet.

i think you'll find that happens all the time actually.

nekokami · 11-20-2008, 07:43 PM

Wow, I had some nasty stuff over the weekend too! I don't tend to be prone to gastro-intestinal disorders, though, so I just had it for the afternoon. I've been tired all week, though.

Progress is retrograde. There are now three schools involved, rather than two.

Last night my younger daughter and I visited the third (and final) school she had chosen to look at as a possibility. It's a very small charter school in our town. Normally I'm not a big fan of charter schools, as they pull money away from regular school districts, but our town doesn't have a high school, so it's hard for me to get worked up about it.

Anyway, this one has only 60 students, 4 full-time teachers (and a bunch of part time teachers for various subjects) and has a very student-centered program with a theme based on the arts, all of which is very attractive to my daughter. So she's thinking things over. If anything, this school would need the computers even more than the other two schools, so I think I'll wait to see where she's going before I decide what to do.

Thanks for your support, though!
