Quote of the Day:
Without friends, no one would want to live, even if he had all other goods.
– Aristotle
Sometimes, when you least expect it, someone will give you a call and make your day. She knows who I’m talking about. It really cheered me up and it was SO COOL to talk to her on the phone. :thumbsup:
Things are getting a little better in my world. I’m coping and I guess that’s all I can really do right now. I have these wonderful friends in my life who have been a rock. I don’t know what I would have done without them all (probably go stark raving mad).
It’s raining today so it made for a messy drive in to work. I got in this morning and started binding the proposal that’s due today. I printed this label for the envelope and…quickly lost it. I mean, I stood right at my desk and watched it go through the printer and then I couldn’t find it again. I looked through the pages on the printer, the trash, everywhere. How can you lose a sheet of labels 2.3 seconds after printing? I mean, really?
So I printed it again.
And then the very next person who went to the printer…found them. Apparently, the sheet of labels had been stuck between two other pages and I just didn’t see it. I felt like I was crazy. Probably a good sign I need more coffee.
:coffee:
After I collected my scattered brain, I headed out to deliver the proposal (forgot to keep track of my mileage :duh:) and then off to the post office to mail my chapter newsletter. I’m a couple of days late, but it’s finally in the mail! YAY!
And that’s about all she wrote, folks. My stomach is telling me to feed it Chinese food for lunch today so I’m thinking that’s what I’m going to have to do. Nothing like hot tea, sweet and sour chicken, hot and sour soup, and a eggroll on a rainy cool day.
ok, thanks so much now I’m TOTALLY craving Chinese!!! 🙄
Hope you have a good weekend–with LOTS of writing! :thumbsup:
Yum! Chinese Food! I am hooked right now on Sesame Chicken.
I love the quote. Ain’t that the truth. Funny how some of one’s closest friends can be miles away.
I once printed off my murder mystery game – 160 pages. One or two pages got caught in the printer like that – between 2 other sheets. The entertainment editor found them and yelled through the newsroom “The Masthead Mutiny clue for Captain Unibrow Pete! Whose is this! This doesn’t look like work stuff!” So I stayed quiet, shrunk down deep in my desk, printed off a few work things and non-chalantly went and picked it up in the mix. AK!
