Coffee pot--Empty

Coffee grounds--Empty

Road Conditions--Icy

Personal/Home life--Not worth talking about

GRRRR, I really need to blow off some steam....

Thankfully Ive got some time in the car today and going to see just how load I can get the radio without blowing ther speakers nor my ears.

That's usually not great for your career.  But sounds like you aren't exactly pleased with that place to begin with.

Our company just sent a full email about the drug free policy.  Funny. 

I asked the Power Generation Division Manager what our policy was for our crews in Colorado and Washington a week ago. 

I think they got a bit worried about that and fired-off an email to all.

My darling MaryVeggieBoy

Stay safe out there, y'hear?

In my time of uncertainy I turned to the Magic 8 ball and it told me to "ask again later"....sigh

But that is the right question

I swear one of these day the post docs around here will learn it is not smart to pizz off the core staff!

I would like some more coffee please if anyone is making a coffee run.

Black?

Geezerette #3 met a guy, dated him briefly, decided he was not the "one", had the talk that she wanted to be just friends, he took it hard. Then, she had some problems, he came to the rescue, and they are friends now.  My guess is that this guy is pretty good.  The problem, if there is one, is that the guy is geeky.  He is geeky by my standards which puts him in 3 sigma territory.  Geezerette #3 is too.  She is, after all, the daughter who formulated the Geeky Gene Theory.  (I've told that one many times before.) However, she has not come to embrace her geeky side.  Anyway, he is finishing his PhD this semester, she is finishing her post doc appointment soon, and both will be in a different places in a few months if they don't do something. My input on the matter is not welcome.  It is one of those situations in which forward and reverse psychology parenting strategies have the same wrong-way effect.  I got nothing but a good seat at the show.

I was trying to decide between (of all people) Cake Boy and a most wonderful geek--country-lovin', marathon-runnin', engineerin'-solvin' geek. Both redheads.

My co-worker (having met both of these fine young lads who brought various gifts of flora and food to my workplace) said: "Always go with the geek. He'll love you forever."

Sigh. Well, he and I are still friends ...

JWKMH always tells the Geezerettes, "The geeky ones make the best daddies."  I go whhaa-whhaat?

Hiya Yanti.  I'm dreaming of my Balinese vacation some day.

They sure do! I so often think of your line that the times your daughters were growing up were the best years in history.

I'm waiting for you. Please bring no plagues.

Yes Please!

Hiya Yanti.  I'm dreaming of my Balinese vacation some day.  I remember more stories of Cake Boy.  He seemed to have a metaphysical attraction.  Engineer boy was probably just a little too firmly attached to earth for much soaring.  There are some desirable traits that are mutually exclusive.

::hands Kate some very strong coffee::

Morning TAN.  Have I missed anything?

Icarus ...

Yes. Cake Boy was my Mercury, and indeed mercurial. I've still never met anyone who could take on my thoughts and senses like that. It STILL creeps me out, in an almost-yummy skin-tingling way.

I think I do enough soaring for two, so I'm good with someone grounded. Everybody's gotta be young and stupid once, or in my case, a few hundred times.
