1. My co-worker is sick again today. That leaves just me and the boss in my department. 2. It wouldn't be so bad if he could learn some manners. Maybe not yell for me from his office or maybe say thank you every once in a while. 3. Another day of listening to music while I work. I've been listening to Coldplay this morning. Will have to find something more upbeat for the afternoon. 4. My son has decided he wants to be a Crossing Guard for Halloween. I know it's not your normal costume but it fit's my son to a tee. 5. I think it's finally stopped raining here in Northern California. I hope everyone is having a great day!

1. I love that your ds wants to be a crossing guard for Halloween! 2. He sounds like my kind of kid! 3. Rain has let up a little. 4. DD just called that she is leaving school for home so hopefully it will be pretty clear for her drive. 5. I am trying to get caught up on laundry, that neverending battle. 6. I never win!

I know this is terrible to say, but I hate Halloween, it annoys me. I hate candy corn LOL 7. I have 80 favors to put together for the Shower on Sunday.

7.1: There's a little known fact that the first candy corn ever made is still out there b/c nobody eats the stuff! Down with Candy Corn! I've also heard that the Candy Corn Company digs through the trash and gets all the thrown out bags of candy corn, b/c nobody really eats them, and sells them for the next Halloween...b/c nobody really eats them. Down with Candy Corn!

1. I think Nick may not like Candy Corn. Got to agree with that one! 2. I am pro-lazy today. It's too nasty to do anything, though it is after 2pm and maybe the breakfast dishes have been soaking long enough. 3. Even the dog is curled up in a blanket, lol. 4. Yesterday Darren fixed the window in my car. All he had to do was take off the door panel and reset the thing. 5. And yet somehow he fixed my heater! Thing hasn't worked in years, he takes the door panel off, fixes the window, and this morning the heater worked! 6. I'm so excited to have the heater working during winter I don't know what to do, lol. 7. I love Halloween! We tried to get married Oct. 31 but the hall we were having our wedding at got the reservations wrong so we moved it to Nov. 1. 8. I have become a phone hog! Anyone who knows me knows how weird that is. But yesterday I spent an hour on the phone with my bils mother and today almost as long with my sis. I'm starting to scare myself, LOL.

1. it's been a somber week so far. 2. we had anti-harrassment training at work yesterday. then right after that, the HR manager announced that a co-worker had committed suicide over the weekend. only 32 years old. he was the the former HR manager's brother. very sad. 3. i got my car worked on saturday morning, and then found out that i will soon need new brake pads and rotors. isn't that lovely? 4. saturday afternoon, i went with my alterego friend to see the movie shall we dance. (pretty good), then we went to this new japanese food place downtown (i won a gift certificate there from a radio station a few weeks ago). good thing we used it, because we were the only 2 people there who weren't on staff. they will probably go out of business soon. the food was good, though. 5. we went out later on that night. we stayed out past midnight! (believe it or not, that's late for us) our clothes didn't even turn into rags! 6. i have always thought i have had a mild form of asthma, since i was a kid. i used to have episodes occasionally, then they quit for a long time. like several years. at the beginning of this year, it started again for a bit, and then quit. well, they have started again this week. it sucks! i feel like i can't catch my breath! 7. my annual dr appt is next monday, so i will talk to her about it, and hopefully get it figured out. 8. on top of that, i have started walking, and adding a little bit of running to that so i won't gain any more weight. today my legs, especially my shins are just aching! 9. i can't find my new bottle of allergy pills. just one of those days!

1. It rained all weekend and looks like its going to rain all this week. 2. This put a serious cramp in my plans with my best friend for the weekend. 3. Its ok though since he is in classes all this week. Maybe we can do it this weekend. 4. Its an outdoor plan so the weather has to be at least decent. 5. I'm not telling what it is but pictures will be posted on the board. 6. I went to a new doctor yesterday for pain management. I thought that meant some kind of therapy to get off all of the pain meds i'm on. 7. Instead he gave me more! 8. This has been the worst year of my life but I'm searching out ways to try to make it better. 9. My best friend has helped a lot just by keeping me company when hubby's at work and making me laugh. 10. But my rock is my wonderful husband. He's the bestest! 10.1. OH! I have to add that yesterday I had the most fun at the grocery store! Sound strange? Well, I can never walk all the way through the store without my back killing me so hubby would go on while I sat up front and waited. But yesterday I used one of those little scooter/seat thingies and had a blast with it! And I didn't run into anything or anyone once! YAAAAAAAA New freedom!!

1. Thank goodness someone has confessed to not liking Halloween...ditto. This must be because of the danged candy corn. 2. Hope that Nino will attend the next Texas get-together. She would love it!

1. I love Candy Corn!! In fact, I pay the candy company to dig out the unused bags of Candy Corn from the trash cans so that I can have them all year round.....YUM ~ Candy Corn!! 2. I am so happy to see so many new FACTOIDer's!!! And to top off this happy feeling, it just does my heart good to see you following the numbering scheme!! Schticklers love these kind of breaks!! 3. We just got a weather alert on our TV!! Cool!! I've never seen a weather alert before. It seems our area will be getting tons of rain and we're on a flash flood alert. I'm not concerned as I don't live in a flood prone area, but I hope that those who do live in these areas will be okay tonight. We've really been needing this rain but not all at the same time...geez. 4. And lastly, I learn so much from this place!! Thanks for not telling me that Juju said that leather boots will crack in the rain. I'll go apply some leather conditioner to them just in case.

1. I love Halloween and I love candy corn!! 2. I am astounded that Eggie has never seen a weather alert before! Golly, I see them constantly here! Hey, take a look in my folder to see a pic of the weather that Dahli has right now--a foot of snow!!! Then look in HER folder to see the funniest picture of a whippet running in the snow. All you can see is the dog's head and back! 3. Yay, Autumn, for posting here--and numbering correctly! 4. Sorry, Jbean. Having to internalize such an event is a difficult thing. 5. I love Conan O'Brien!

1. I saw the same weather alert, Eggie! Not too often I have to deal with tons of rain in the desert. 2. Speaking of the rain...ack! My roof is leaking in several different places. Rain is just fine and dandy, but not on my kitchen floor, in my bathtub (at least there its somewhere easy to clean up, lol,) or on the foot of my bed! 3. We had to do some rearranging of sleeping arrangements tonight. Caleb is now sleeping with Kota while we are taking his bed. I'm thinking I may end up sleeping on the couch, lol, got to be more comfy than sharing a twin size bed with Darren..at least for him since I'm a kicker. 4. Guess what he'll be doing tomorrow! I don't care if it's just stapling a tarp to the roof, or several tarps, until the rain stops and we dry up as long as it stops most of the leaking. 5. I get to watch my baby niece tomorrow. She'll be 1 in a couple weeks, I can't believe how fast it's gone! I love the fact that I get to spend so much time with my nieces and nephews. 6. Caleb's working on his first ever book report. He's not liking it much, lol. I do sympathize with him, much as I have always enjoyed reading, I hated book reports. 6.5 Dakota is now on her fourth set of math fact flash cards...the 2's. She's done 2 sets a week, so she's just zipping through them. She's so cute, she's always so proud of herself, as our we! She'll rush out of class to tell me she passed and got the next set, and then come home and wait for Dad to come home so she can tell him. The first set she missed two on the test, so had to retake it...she wasn't discouraged, she came home, handed me the flash cards and told me she was ready to practice some more. Then went back to school the next day and passed the test no prob. Kids and learning, it's so exciting!

1. i love halloween! it's my second favorite holiday, christmas is first! 2. i love candy corn, too! i really love the ones with chocolate ends, instead of white. i can eat them til i get sick, since they are pure sugar. 3. unbelievable about the first-ever weather alert! over the summer, we had so many storm watches and warnings that i didn't know the hamsters names on bb, because their names were always covered up by small maps with storm warnings. (no joke) 4. more goofy weather here. it's been in the low 70's lately, since it was in the 40's last week, and we're looking at a forecast of 84 tomorrow! 5. i hope spy got her engagement pics taken and that they turned out great! 6. found out at work yesterday that we are getting a different supervisor (AGAIN). and that our department may be shifting, as well. 7. work is exhausting lately, but we have been performing very well. our department is one of the only ones performing favorably lately, for various reasons. it does help pull the shop out of a slump. happy hump day! eta: thanks hp, i just saw your comment to me.

1. I have a cold or a sinus infection - and I feel rotten. 2. I hate candy corn., 3. Halloween - I can take it or leave it. 4. We do 'trick or treating' at work. Which is dorking but the purpose is to get to know people in other areas of the office. 5. This year so as not to undermine my weight loss I will make the rounds but I'm not actually grabbing candy. 6. Someone told me over the weekend the weather was supposed to be nice this week. It is not, welcome to misty, damp and cloudy week. 7. Thanks to all for the congrats on my weight loss. 8. 32 more lbs to goal! (then maintain that for 6 weeks to hit lifetime)

1. Good morning everyone! 2. Got bad news today, but I'm not going to let it ruin my day. 3. I like candy corn, but I can only eat a handful once a year. 4. Today is causal day at school. It feels so good to be in jeans and a t-shirt. 5. My sinus infection is still going strong. 6. I doubt it will every go away. 7. I called DH at home to share my bad news. He instantly made me feel better. I him so much. 8. We're thinking about going to Windsor, Canada this weekend while DD is away at camp. 9. Have a happy Wednesday everyone!!

1. I have a headache localized behind my right eyeball. 2. Isn't that lovely? 3. I want to go back to bed. 4. This is spirit week at school. Today is Western Wear. I had no idea so many students owned cowboy hats! 5. Tomorrow is Retro. I think I will wear my tie-dye and part my hair in the middle and wear it straight with lots of black eyeliner and a flower in my hair. 6. The Yankees are going to lose to the Bosox, I just know it. But I promise to be a good sport! 7. I love candy corn also, but prefer the ones with the yellow bottoms. 8. My favorite sugar fix will always be icing. I LOVE icing. 9. It's a gray, melancholy day. 10. My AA friend is coming over tonight. We are doing dinner and watching TV! Excitement abounds!

Dh has still soy beans to be harvested in the field and as long as the sun doesn't shine we cannot get them off 5. The tax auditor just left here, she wanted to "tour the business" (however she didn't think she felt like she needed to go into the pig barn 5.1 She did comment to me 2 different times how well organized my books and records were and how easy it was to find information. 5.2 I think the audit went O.K. 6. Kids are upstairs and are too quiet 7. I cannot shake this feeling of being tired..I have had this for over 1 week now. 8. Where is the sun? 9.

1. Skootz, I have been extraordinarily tired myself. Sucks, doesn't it? Today I am so tired that my entire face feels numb. Here's hoping we both have our energy levels pick up soon!
