Welcome Susan’s newest little arrival, Chloe Renee, born March 17, 2003, and weighing 8 pounds, 4 ounces. I took these photos last week, when the lil squirt was only two weeks old.

One of Chloe’s rare *awake* moments

Pensive

Aunt Dawn, get that camera OUTTA my face!

And yes, that’s my chest in the next one. The kid likes boobs, what can we say?

And then here’s the darling 3-year-old Courtney. But don’t call her a pretty little girl —

she will warn you very sternly that she is the big girl now. 🙂

Sisters!

And here’s my only child. …

And to get away from the hold-my-hair-back-while-I-puke cuteness theme,

(of course, that’s debatable) meet my new friends Karen and Chrissy …



A Crayola box of idiocy

April 10th, 2003, 2:53 PM by Goddess

Yes, you can tell I’m at work, with a title like that! 😉

Okay, so they sponsored training on our new, shitty photocopiers today. I was not asked to join, so I am cool with that. But poor Shan got roped into it, and she came back with pages of notes on the complete idiocy of our colleages who couldn’t find the big green print button. But it gets worse. I have been begging these yahoos for months about either getting a new printer or figuring out how to set up my machine to print to a photocopier … and wouldn’t you know, they set up the new copiers so that only the Windows users can print tabloid size? I am the only asshole in the entire organization who prints tabloid-size documents, but they didn’t want to spend the extra dime to get the Mac software to enable me to stop dealing with my tired printer that jams everytime I print my paper out to proof it. Ergh. Shan kind of made a fuss about it with Demure, who wiggled her lips and looked stressed out.

Speaking of wiggling, I’m trying to get out of meeting with Demure tomorrow. I have no idea what’s going into the paper this month, and I don’t want to meet — let me just be blunt about it. Meetings work for her; they do NOT work for me. I don’t understand why I have to sit in so many meetings. I have to go into a benefits meeting tomorrow, too — looks pretty grim, whatever’s going on, as Frosty is taking us into small groups to discuss whatever change is looming. I am pretty pissed that my co-pay on a small prescription of Percocet was $40 — lord only knows how much worse it’s gonna get.

Anywho, I am so pleased to randomly bitch. I have been busy interior decorating here, so it’s just a wasted day in general. Then again, how can any day spent here at Club Medicated NOT be considered a waste? 😉



The blog is back!

Sending lots of love to Phil for helping out, despite my Macintosh preference. 😉

Good. Now I can bitch about how much money I just spent having my taxes done. I’ll get a good refund, although my student loan company is frothing at the mouth, waiting to seize it. Oh well. Just a few lil pieces to put in the mail, and you can stick a fork in me, ‘cuz I am D-O-N-E!!!



On the radio

And right after it came Stereofuse’s “Everything,” which y’all know I love, too. 😉

“So denied so I lied are you the now or never kind

In a day and a day love I’m gonna be gone for good again

Are you willing to be had are you cool with just tonight

Here’s a toast to all those who hear me all too well

Here’s to the nights we felt alive

Here’s to the tears you knew you’d cry

Here’s to goodbye

Tomorrow’s gonna come too soon

Put your name on the line along with place and time

Wanna stay not to go I wanna ditch the logical

Here’s a toast to all those who hear me all too well

Here’s to the nights we felt alive

Here’s to the tears you knew you’d cry

Here’s to goodbye

Tomorrow’s gonna come too soon

All my time is froze in motion

Can’t I stay an hour or two or more

Don’t let me let you go

Here’s a toast to all those who hear me all too well

Here’s to the nights we felt alive

Here’s to the tears you knew you’d cry

Here’s to goodbye

Tomorrow’s gonna come too soon.”

— Eve 6, “Here’s to the Night” —



Quiz time!

In response to “Which STD Would I Give to My Ex,” this one is pretty appropriate, although I did have to ask myself *which* ex to have in mind. 🙂

crabs

You Should Give Your Ex Crabs!

Your ex didn’t really hurt you, you just dislike certain things about him.

Give him crabs and tiny 1/8 inch animals will live inside his pubic hair, making him itchy.

Crabs are easily treated with medicine that is put on the pubic hair.
