I suggested we video tape me during the day, but Karen doesn't want the world to see all the crap under her bed.

Probably will never again need to know where the Solomon islands are, unless I go on Jeopardy ;)<BR/><BR/>Reb, wasn't that cat cam cool? Now if only people could figure out what the cat was thinking at the time. (Maybe Penelope could tell us?)<BR/><BR/>P.O.M., I hope you feel better soon -- by next year at least.<BR/><BR/>Leah's comment made me wonder -- do a lot of people work from home? That sounds like fun to me, but I suppose it's a 'grass is always greener, but doesn't need mowing' sort of thing.<BR/><BR/>missicat -- nice happy dance there! Um... the 'skins are something to do with football, right?<BR/><BR/>Marijke, you have the right idea. HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!<BR/><BR/>(Um, Crabby? Was I supposed to be scholarly and incisive? Oh dear.

That picture of the woman with the lampshade on her head? Seriously, it <I>is</I> amazing, sometimes scary to read what's out there about you. When I typed in my full name, I found a family genealogy going back 200 years. Well that wasn't scary, but I've read about people who were denied jobs because of things they themselves had written in Facebook or similar sites.The Merryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09660495393832517684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1704170106558126102.post-25317433175382759732007-12-31T17:39:00.000-05:002007-12-31T17:39:00.000-05:00Hilarious!!

So, no more lunchtime blogging, or blog-visiting. They must be on to me.

But it was a good tool for realizing just how ridiculous life is, because I got so wrapped up in it and also was offended that I was getting rude comments from the applet because I couln't get close enough to the cities! :D<BR/>And bubblewrap, thanks so much for that! :D <BR/>I actually work at home and should be working right now, and here I am, goofing off.TKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15747390418220178858noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1704170106558126102.post-29914267824602247382007-12-31T13:17:00.000-05:002007-12-31T13:17:00.000-05:00I called in sick today. hee hee.
