I know we’re known as polite, genteel, and courteous to a fault down here (We’re also known as backwards, inbred, and ridiculously close-minded, too. But that’s for another day, my pets), but I have to agree 100% with Mr. Happy. Maybe it’s just because I got back from a three-hour board meeting where all I did was click a f’ing button (”next slide”). Are you kidding me?!?!? I wanted to scream at the client about how they just burned 20% of my time working for them at a meeting where I didn’t say a word.
I. clicked. a. button. Oh, I clicked it good, though, y’all. I just clicked and clicked (only when it was appropriate, mind you), and then, just when the clicking and talking were just too much….I got to turn off the laptop and projector, and leave.
Anyway, I digress. The point is that that was just an entirely frustrating affair I put up with, and I haven’t eaten anything yet today, so I was in the perfect frame of mind to read this post from Mr. Happy over at That Bothers Me. Give it a read sometime. And if you don’t agree with it, join a commune in Asheville and enjoy a life of beet farming, drum circles, and pitchouli. Hippies. Always wanting to share stuff. (Sorry. Another tangent.)
Have a great weekend everyone. I’m off to purchase unnecessary (and necessary) things for the new house. Maybe I’ll buy a dog and get her an iPod.

If you buy a mac computer you get a Ipod for free right now…I’m just saying.

Thanks Mel. I passed on the iPod, but did manage to purchase enough kitchen tools to guest star on Iron Chef!
Jackie - glad you’re back! I’m not sure why the page is small for you (it looks fine to me). but, isn’t that just like a guy to say, though? Seriously - Don’t know what the deal is there. Anyone? Bueller?

No such thing as a “meaningless” purchase for a new house, m’dear!

new house - what a lucky one you are. you must share with us about some of those new kitchen gadgets you bought … fondue pot? chopsticks? meat thermometer?

I had a little trouble following this, but that might be because I haven’t eaten breakfast yet.
I got the gist that you had a bad day though…

TB - I’ll be sure to talk about my recent purchase of too many spatulas, kitchen scissors that I needed a pair of kitchen scissors to open, and my newfound love of Uncle Ben’s Rice Bowls soon!
PLD - Sorry for the train-of-thoughtlessness post there. I was mad and hungry - two things this jolly fat man aren’t used to being…
Brad - i’m a kickball playin (not just a player - i was the president of the league last season), karaoke singin’ (ever been to the Island Grill?), pr guy in the Holy City. And you? thanks for stopping by the site, and feel free to come on back anytime!
