Right now I can promise he didn't--he didn't even contact me. LOL

I know you are smiling though--and I know you are most likely even chuckling a bit--even though you may not want to admit it.:-)

I also believe one of the reasons you like him so much is because of that drive he has. One of those "you can't get something for nothing" moments.:-)

right now, GAL, take a long, long look (quit slobbering!) at C's 'sheer delight' photo and maybe you'll decide to keep him around for a while!
hey, maybe you should post that pic again for the rest of us!?

Right now I wish Gal and Colossus had been here yesterday, too. Hey Gal, you can't kill him yet. We've still got our birthdays to celebrate together in Feb and he's bringing you. Just saying.

Right now, I'm hoping that landi is wrong, and that Hippyt's husband does NOT have a radio stuck in his head.

Right now I'm wondering if I will survive having both dogs in the car this evening when I go to pick up #1 from a basketball game.

Right now, Bob, that would be worse. I hope it's not an 8-track.

Right now, maybe that's why 8-tracks went by the wayside so soon. They were just too hard to remove from noses!

Right now I am so sad and angry. I just heard on the news that one of my friendly acquaintances was deported to Iran today, despite the fact that her entire family are citizens of Canada ... she held a full-time job at Starbucks ... and was involved in the community, including volunteering at our rec center. She supported herself, and worked very hard.

She is divorced, and given this and her past history speaking out for women's rights in her native country, she fears jail or worse upon her arrival in Iran. She was given one hour to get to the airport and leave once her refugee status was denied.

She has no family left there, and she has no passport. She will arrive in the country with nowhere to go, and no passport.

She is a friendly, smart, hardworking woman -- someone who has a lot to offer Canada. In fact, she was already working hard and touching lots of lives.

I am heartbroken for her and her family.

right now, after reading yesterday's humorscope, i'm incensed at the thought that i missed out on all the fun during the 60's and 70's, and i am now changing my name to "Sunflower" in protest.

ROFL!!! thanks nancy for the chuckle!

Yankee that's awful!! Only 1 hour? What we're they afraid of? The image that came to my mind was "Terminal" yet, this woman now has no hope, surely this isnt over for her! How sad! Hopefully with the media picking up the story, a reporter is in Tehran to meet the plane?

Right now, I heard about that on the news last night, Yankee. I wish I could understand what our Immigration system thinks when we let immigrants come and live by the boatful, yet those who truly deserve -- and in some cases, need -- to be here get turned away. ???

Right now, I'm getting ready for an interview at Vancouver's 'hippest' newspaper. Please to be keeping me in your thoughts this afternoon... I *really* need this job (and really, really want it).

Right now, no word from Haleh (I just talked with her boss).

And right now, I'm hoping Karen's interview goes well and the job is all she wants it to be, and that she gets it if she wants it! (Psst... I have a line on another job ... not exactly what you want ... but could be interesting in terms of connections ... you can PM me if you want to)

Right now, I hope Yankee's friend finds someone to help her.

Right now, I am having a glass of Merlot and waiting for Ms. Sweetpea to get home from work so we can celebrate her birthday. Tomorrow we are going out to dinner and a concert, for our birthday gift to each other.

right now, sorry about yankee's friend...

right now, i was ready to bean the boss. (i am upset enough that dork general manager, who just doesn't bother to show up weekends at all, and sometimes just doesn't show on weekdays, either, with no call or reason...and comes at 7:00 a.m. and is gone by 3:00 p.m., and was told by boss he doesn't have to account for his time and can 'come and go as you please', while making more than twice what i am an hour.....)
anyway, boss comes in today, while i am dismantling the pipes under the 4 kitchen sinks and removing a hunk of gunk that would gag a maggot. the first thing he does is yell because i moved a table in the breezeway. it is plastic. it has been raining. table gets wet. duh. but boss is just ranting and raving because i haven't moved the table more out of the rain.
i proceeded to blow up for the first time ever there. "i have my arms up to my elbows in crap stuck in your drain pipes, and you are worried about a g.d. plastic table!? don't you ever come in and see me doing what our 3 maintenance men and our manager should be doing and give me heck about something so trivial!"
after i removed the clog and put the pipes back together, he asked if i still loved him. like i ever did. hmmm. well, i told him i loved him, because i love everyone, but i wasn't liking him much right then. and he'd "better appreciate what i am doing rather than always trying to find something inconsequential to complain about."
man, i was livid.
okay, tabby feels better!
i am partly just angry because i keep hearing how i am the best employee, the friendliest, the hardest working, the smartest, and oh yeah, this hardworking, friendly, smart gal can't get a nickel raise...even though everyone else got one at 6 months and i have been there almost 9 months.
aaaaaargh.
okay, time for a glass of red wine!

right now, tabby, ASK FOR ONE! if you don't ask, they won't always automatically give one. DEMAND ONE! if not, i may have to rent a car, and drive down there and do it myself for ya! I DO KNOW WHERE YOU WORK!
