1. Even though I work in a corporate office, my department consists of 3 people. My boss, coworker and me. 2. My co-worker is out sick today. That leaves me and our boss. Yuck! 3. I think I'll plug in my head phones, listen to some music while I work and do what I can around him.

1. I just made it home from the Court for DS speeding ticket. 2. DS called last night and said he had food poisoning and didnt want to drive home! I panicked, he came home 3. He pleaded not guilty to not having a seat belt on, and guilty to speeding, no school! Just supervision, and $100 4. Any good remedies for food poisoning? Dorm food yum! (not) (hugs to Ohio, and Silly - Go GRACE!)

1. I have been successful on two fronts today! After the crappy morning I had, I needed it, lol. 2. I have been fighting the pharmacy since last night over a prescription of Kota's I turned in early last week. I've heard three different stories and one outright lie about the dang thing. Walked out with it a few minutes ago! Yay! I wouldn't even bother with this pharmacy except that they are the only 24 hour one close to us and I like the fact that I can go in at 2 in the morning and get her inhalers if I have to. 3. In contrast to the hell I've had with them, I took my glasses into lenscrafters. I dropped them this morning getting into the car and didn't realize it until I heard them get smashed in closing the door. Lens popped out and they were bent every which way possible. Guy fixed them in about 10 minutes flat for no charge. I Lenscrafters! 4. I took my very pregnant neighbor to the dr this morning. Her little boy (he's 3) sat with me for 2 hours while we waited and was so well behaved. She didn't expect to be there that long so she didn't take him a toy. LOL, all I had in my purse was a piece of cloth to clean glasses, 12 cents, and an empty film container. Hey, it kept him entertained, hehe. 5. Kaiser was giving flu shots this morning. I swear everybody in town must have shown up for it. The line was wrapped around the parking lot and back again! It was a mad house over there.

1. I'm hoping that my Mom got her flu shot today...she's OLD, has diabetes and has had two heart surgeries. She is also around lots of people, so she's in the high risk group. I don't even know what else she take medicine for, but she and my Dad are just walking pharmacies. 2. It turned out to be a BEAUTIFUL day after it quit raining (AGAIN!....the pool is overflowing!) 3. I am hoping to be home before dark tonight. Need to figure what's up with the fish pond. Last night I could see that the two white fish were missing. Today the water was so dark I couldn't see the fish. Think I need to clean the filter again! 4. My boss observed me teaching a very hands-on class. It was ok, but I'm not sure that he was looking for such a hands-on class. Maybe he wanted a brilliant lecture??? Maybe I'm second guessing myself. He is also in my exact field, but a different specialty, so I'm probably ok. 5. We were stomping on the floor, and the sax guy came upstairs, and was joking about it. I was standing on the teacher's desk when he came in....he didn't see our boss! GADS....the more I think about it, the more I think I'm in trouble....stomping on the floor, standing on the desk (Ok, Ok, I'm short...they had to see me!) and giving the students the written notes after they have performed the whole period. Oh, MY! 6. I should go prep my last class.....EVERYONE!!!! You should watch MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL! The Marching Salukis from SIU-C will be the band! I hope that they show the band, cause I'm not staying up for the Rams game if they don't! GO SALUKIS! Walk like an Egyptian! <Marm is just like a MOM, proud of her students performing on TV!>

1. A'ight...I'll do seven because I feel better today than I have the last week. 2. I was glad to see that I wasn't the only one feeling down with the flu or whatever it is. 3. I made it to work today, but barely. I'm still not a hundred percent...but I think I'm seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. 4. Egbok, next time I'm going to try Echineachaawe, just like you suggested. 5. We had a wicked storm here this morning. Lightning struck in my neighbors back yard and made the loudest thunder I think I have ever heard in my life. I kept waiting for my daughters to start screaming, but they laughed and kept saying, "Dada, dijew heewit?" 6. I'll be looking out for the Salukis tonight as I am watching MNF! What is a Saluki, anyway? Sounds like something I would have gotten my mouth rinsed out with soap had I said it when I was a kid. 7. Time to cook dinner. Making Chicken and Rice.

TEN TEN TEN TEN let's sing a song about TEN, how many is TEN? 1. I love my husband. He woke me up this morning with breakfast in bed. HE has to go to work, I laze around all day, and he makes ME breakfast, and brings it to me in bed. How wonderful is that? 2. My cat is so silly. I was sitting on the floor next to the window going through old statements and checks and stuff, and it thundered really loud, and instead of running under the bed like he normally does, he rears back, hisses at the window, then runs and tries to push me away from it. He kept crying and pushing until I finally moved away. Then he ran and hid under the bed. 3. It's been raining all day and been dark and gloomy. We really need the rain. September was the driest month ever in history for Louisville. 4. The neighbors downstairs smoked dope all day and it's making me sick. The voodoo drum music is starting again so I'll probably smell it again soon. No good calling the cops, they won't do anything. 5. I so can't wait to move from here. Our new landlord is supposed to get control of his new house on Monday, so hopefully Thanksgiving weekend we will be moving. 6. Moving means no neighbors, but also means no cable internet or dsl, and no more ordering pizza online. Actually it will mean no more ordering pizza to be delivered as we'll be too far out. 7. Moving also means we'll be out in the country. YAY! I can't wait! 8. We're watching the Cards and that other team play. I could care less who wins but my dh loves the Cards so guess as long as the Royals aren't playing the Cards can win. 9. I'm annoying my dh by calling the Cards' first baseman PoohLeeBoy. I also bring up quite often that the Royals beat the Cards in a previous World Series. 10. Eddie just crawled up on my lap and is playing with the mouse so I'm going to put the Kitty Screen saver up [Sorry George, you'll be right back up soon as Eddie is done playing] so he can bat at the kitties.

1. Puppylov, are you saying you've lost 75lbs?? If so, how wonderful!! Nickovtyme, I'm glad you're feeling better today and how adorable about your girls' reaction to the thunder. Cher, is this the first time you're going to Disneyland? Serate, I'm so happy to hear that you get to move to the country...how cool!! Marm, you are short...but you're cute too...LOL!! Vee, I'm sorry to hear you're feeling lonely tonight. Reader my cyberkidlet, tell your dd Happy Birthday from me!! 2. Since I'm the #1 schtickler around these parts, I just wanted to be clear that my #1 fact was very, very legal...<hee-hee!> 3. I wore my new long black leather boots to work today and I felt awesome!! It actually rained here in SoCal today!! Can you believe it!!?? It's true and my new long black leather boots were just perfect for today!! Yay!! 4. Hey HerckiePoo!! I love cold weather too!! It's a (brrrrrrr) 65 degrees outside right now!!

1. Hi everyone! My folder disappeared along time ago. Today is my birthday and I really missed all those birthday greetings! 2. We went to see the movie Cellular after I worked 11 hours today. Great movie! 3. My DD brought me a vanilla bean frappuciano instead of a birthday cake, since she knew I did not want a cake. The grand kids brought me balloons. 4. I received the best present from my husband - a Nikon digital camera. Now I just have to learn how to use it! 5. Wednesday my DH is going to China. I will have more time to come here and visit with all of you.

6.1 C'mon to Vee's, y'all! I know just the thing to get you in a good mood, Yankee. Stop by Vee's! 6.2 Psst, Knightpatti, there will be a cake at Vee's party, just for you! (If you want a new folder, I will create one for you . . . unless someone else already beat me to it!)

1. Congrats to Nino for getting the thread posting style in the first try and Welcome! That's from all the other factoid scticklers..hehehehe 2. This morning is engagement pictures - finally - after being rained out twice and it being too windy once. 3. I have been watching baseball for the last week nearly non-stop. 4. I can't stand the Yankees franchise and hope that the Red Sox deny them the penant. Sorry NY fans The last two games in the series have been incredibly exciting. I still can't believe Ortiz hit in the winning run in both games. 5. I am also pulling for my home state Astros to beat out the Cardinals. 6. I am going to need a nap today, but won't get one. I go non-stop from now until 8pm tonight. At least the university pays for my lunch today 7. I have new grass in my yard! I got it seeded just over a week ago, and there is now the cutest little baby grass everywhere. 8. We selected the flower girl (who is more like a junior bridesmaid) and a ring bearer this past weekend so that is done! The flower girl has already selected her dress. Another thing to cross off the list. Have a great Tuesday!

Going costume shopping with some of the teachers after school today. 5. We all have to dress up for Halloween. 6. No one has any idea what to be this year. 7. Last year I was a cheerleader. 8. DD is going away to PANDA camp this weekend. 9. I'll miss her, but we will have the house to ourselves for 3 days!!!

1. I'm sorry you are working so much that it's making you grouchy Yankee, I know that's not your normal state of mind so it must be hard. 2. Congrats on the weather co-operating with your engagement pictures Spy, and on your baby grass. You've got so many exciting firsts going on how do you keep track? LOL! 3. It's raining, windy and cold here today, but for me that means the weather is co-operating since my husband won't be golfing but home for supper and spending the evening together. 4. My youngest son's groin injury seems to be on the mend, I know it was a painful and serious thing but he was starting to take advantage of being waited on. 5. We had a short visit Sunday from our oldest son, he had a lot of news for us. The most fun news was that he is going to start shopping for an engagement ring. We love his gf and in our hearts she is already part of the family. 6. I'm always happiest when I've been in recent contact with all my chicks even tho they've left the nest. I'm expecting a phone call this afternoon from our daughter and the morning seems to be dragging. 7. I've been teaching myself to crochet and have just completed a poncho for son's gf, now I have to take it to the post office to mail it to her then on to the craft store for more yarn. 8. I still haven't started making those magic scarves that were so popular in Mystic. I'm trying to learn more advanced crochet techniques first. 9. When ever I learn new crafts I run out of people to take the end products off my hands, but this year I'm lucky, my daughter has 3 room mates in her dorm apartment so I can foist the ponchos off on them. 10. Opps I was too slow with my facts so to add number 10, I'll just add that I love TVCH!

hah, I think the teachers should dress up as witches *eg! Our school one year did Hershey kisses, they bought 2 or 3 patterns, and passed them around, some made for others, I'm sure there was a price involved! then last year we did the '70 disco theme, tie-dyed shirts, some got wigs, beads, jeans, it was easy and cute! PS Has KnightPatti been to her new folder?

* Offers the thought that the teachers could all dress as characters from Harry Potter, or even The Wizard of Oz, so different size teachers could wear different costumes.

10.1 <Mini Schtickler here, gals! Number your offerings or Miss Eggie will fry you!> 10.2 I love the Harry Potter idea! Or, each teacher could be dressed as a character from a famous kid's book (Pippi, Madeline, etc). Not sure what grade you teach. If split into disciplines: Have all the science teachers dress in a science theme; all the social studies teachers dress in a history theme, etc.
