All the boy mice seem to get dirty balls and then they just don't work correctly any more.... harumph!

Do what I do.

Remove its ball, wipe gently, blow into the hole to get the dust out, and re-insert.

Bet it will be a long time before your mouse allows its ball to get dirty again!

Ok, so I understand I'm lucky to have a job at all in this economy. But tonight, I could just cry. Two cashiers (one was me) and one customer service person in tears tonight.. IN A THREE HOUR TIME SPAN!! All from rude customers. This is NOT normal; most of the time I love people and I like my job well enough, but tonight....

Whoever the idiot was that said, "The customer is always right" should be drawn and quartered.
And it's not even Christmas yet!

Yes, some chicken soup would be nice right now - good idea.

I cannot stand being sick. I fell as if I've been sick for at least 2 weeks and I've tried taking over the counter medicines. Going to the doctor is always such an issue, but I think I am going to end up going there later tomorrow or next week.

James,

It's not nice when you're unwell, especially for more than two weeks. My wife and I are still recovering from the long lived fingers of Glandular fever (aka "Mono"), which we contracted in March

Wish you the best of speedy recovery.

Paul

This is not directed at anyone in particular, but why do contributors have to refer to authors by their surnames only - it really irritates me and makes the comments sound like a football commentary. Sorry if I've offended anyone.
