1. Nothing that wasn't obliterated by today being Monday.
If they ever set up the 4 day work week (Yeah. Right.) I want MONDAY off, not FRIDAY. Better karma.

7. Yeah, but then Tuesday'll just turn into the new Monday
Personally, Monday is one of my favorite days of the week. When I worked as a waitress, I always seemed to have Tuesday and Wednesday off, so Monday was really my Friday. And on Monday yeah, you go back to the work-thing, but things are kinda slow to start usually. Everyone's still in weekend-recovery mode.

Now I like it because everyone goes back to school and work and I get the house to myself (almost) for a little while.

15. Maybe on YOUR planet...
Monday in the Auto Industry is OHMIFUCKINGGODWHATTHEHELLHAPPENEDOVERTHEWEEKENDPANIC Day.

I frequently mentally flip a coin as to whether or not I will go in the drive or not. Fucker always seems to come up "go to work."

18. Ewwwwww....
auto industry. That changes things a bit...

Just remember though -- Monday doesn't last forever. And it makes the time go by faster?

10. Ooooooh...a new dress?
Tell me about it...I wanna hear. And if it's purty and makes you feel good, it was worth it. So no, you didn't spend too much.

Better yet -- show me.

12. Here it is
http://www.cache.com/cache/control/product/~category_id=0100/~product_id=05041J15615079

They had probably 1/3 of the dresses in the store that are online. I tried on almost everything in my size. Dress shopping used to be more fun.

21. Boots could work...
;)

I'm thinking, with that dress...a pair of black patent leather pumps so high you'll need a pilot's license, though....

Patent leather may work. I'm too tall already though. It's hard finding really cute shoes with shorter heels.

Sometimes you've just gotta let the shoes decide. When they're right, they're right.

31. I worked on Saturday
and then spent 11 hours baking cookies yesterday...but I probably baked about 500. Nut bon-bons and chocolate shortbread and butter cookies and more snowball cookies and two kinds of spritz cookies.

Today I'm relaxing a little bit, then tonight I'm making chocolate-covered cherries and peanut brittle.

Will the madness never end?

35. Helps some
and she did pound on me. I think she bruised my back.

She's gotten a lot stronger! :wow:


I need a treatment plan instead of these bandaids. That's why I'm so angry I still don't have insurance here.

37. Nope
and he's ignoring my emails. I'm solving the problem by finding a job with benefits. He's had a month and hasn't made any effort to find insurance for me.
