My wife has an impeccable eye for knowing when someone is pregnant. Very early in the show she says "Are they doing a really terrible job trying to hide the fact that Cobie is pregnant?"

I expected the punchline to that joke to be extremely and specifically derogatory toward women.... only to learn after checking with Mr. Google that it was just plain foul all around. %-(
Woo hoo DukeUsul is here! Welcome!!!

I sent her an email, though suspect she won't have a chance to read it until after April 15th.

Well considering I don't have any windows (ugh) I can't blame the grey. Not that it is. ;;) It's more of being back in the office after being off for a week and not wanting to do ANYTHING. Heh. /:)

Hey how come the Whistling Smilie doesn't work?

I've had one of those disaster a minute kind of days - cuts down on the posting time! It wouldn't be so bad if 99.5% of the disasters weren't caused by idiots not doing their jobs. b-(

Sue, How did things go at work? Did you write up the incompetent person?

Oh. My. God.

My mom is out of town and a package arrived from our CPA this afternoon by UPS overnight delivery.

I called her. I told her, "Mom, your tax forms are here and you need to sign them."

"I thought I filed them all," she said.

"Nope," I replied as I looked over the returns that I was holding in my hands.

I've been practicing my mom's signature this evening. ~x(

Someone remind me to go to the post office in the morning and put these things in the mail.
