1. I have a cat named Ellie, too, Schoomarm! Mine's indoors-only, though. :-)

2. I should be editing a bunch of boring stuff, but I'm practicing avoidance behavior.

3. Which isn't doing me any good since I work from home and get paid by the hour and this is due tomorrow by 5:00 and that means I'll be up half the night working on it.

4. But I'm really not complaining since I get paid $40 an hour to do this stuff and there's more coming for the end of the week and the weekend, too. (This client usually sends one or two things a month, if I'm lucky, so this is a windfall.)

5. I guess I have to quit saying I don't have a job anymore since my part-time work-at-home gigs are starting to keep me busier than a long-legged cat in a room full of rockin' chairs!

6. It's a beautiful clear day (again), about 60-degrees F, and I'd rather be driving in my Beetle Convertible with the top down!

7. I've GOT to get my tax info together or I'll have to move my appointment with the accountant AGAIN. UGH!

8. The bad part about lots of sunny days is that I realize how dirty my windows are and I don't have time to wash them.

9. If it warms up to 65, I'm going to be editing on my laptop outside on my deck! That's the only thing better than being able to come to work in my bathrobe. :-)

Geez...all my facts from last night are gone. Now I'm not in the mood to be open or so heartfelt anymore...those of you that missed them are out of luck.

10. I read your fact from last night, Nick. My response is missing also. Your post was wonderfully open and heartfelt! Congratulations on giving up the mug and looking toward a higher power. Positive steps are always rewarded!

10.1 It's nice to see you back here!

1. what in the hell is going on in here? lol, i guess it's 10 facts day?

2. ddr, how did the binder incident take place? somehow i missed that one. ((((ddr)))) that sucks!

3. i had the best day today. :-) ever heard of the phrase "what goes around comes around"? well, i'm a firm believer in that, and today i got a co-worker back BIG TIME!

4. it wasn't mean or anything and no one got in trouble. in fact i did the same thing to him that he did to me. :-)

5. the thing is, he can dish it out, but he can't take it, so he is pissed. oh well, he'll get over it. :-)

6. i bought the best of abba cd last night at the used cd store. only $6.99!

7. then i went to the other used cd store, where they were having a sale on all their cd's priced $6.99....they were 3 for $15. not a bad deal!

8. so i bought 3 more cds....a whitney houston one, a dixie chicks one (i already had it, but it is so scratched that i can hardly listen to it) and a various artist one.

9. glad it's AI night....again. i wasn't overly impressed with the boys last night, i hope the girls are a little better.

10. is it friday yet?

1. Hey I'm wondering what the hell is going on around here too!

2. Maybe I'll just list my facts willy nilly and not have a care for how many I do... snickersnicker...

3. If you click on my name you can see a pic of me and My Bob. I have a smug look on my face - like I'm saying, "heh heh, he's ALL MINE!"

4. My son who is my baby, will be 18 the end of April, he stands 6'5, and wears a size 15 shoe! He came over after school today and we hung out together and I made dinner for the two of us.

5. I don't have a favorite color - I like most all of them.

I have never seen this thread so screwed up and I think we can blame Herckie for starting it! This is what happens when you talk to insurance people all day long.

1. I don't have a clue what's going on around here, either. Maybe there's something in the water making us all forget how to count?? Sage posted 5 facts, in an effort to get us all back on track, I'll post six.

2. I hate my new job. I loved it at first, because it was a job, but I've come to learn that I hate it.

3. I was paged over the loudspeaker at work today, something along the lines of, "Karen, Tanja is stuck in the bathroom with no toilet paper. Please bring toilet paper to the bathroom." PAGED OVER THE LOUDSPEAKER FOR THIS!

4. The kicker is that the guy who paged me sits RIGHT BESIDE both the bathroom, and the box of toilet paper!

5. My desk, on the other hand, is on the VERY OPPOSITE end of the office. Am I the only one who sees a problem with this?

6. Since I promised to do only six facts, I'll bunch the rest of this into one fact: As well as the TP Incident, I also had the founding partner, while standing beside the paper towel dispenser, (which, believe it or not, is right above a cupboard holding more paper towel) get mad at me for not changing the roll, which still had about half an inch thickness of paper rolled around it... NOT NEEDING TO BE CHANGED YET, paper waster. I wore a nice new pair of pants to work today (which I had bought on the weekend trying to make myself FEEL BETTER ABOUT THIS PLACE I WORK (they call it an office, I call it hell with an espresso machine))... unfortunately, the hem on the pants is about a half inch too long, but because of the fabric of the pant and the seamline along the hem, I decided it would be too much trouble to hem them, as long as I wear a high-heeled boot, they're OK. Well, today another of the partners says to me, "I've heard of pants shrinking in the wash, but never expanding... surely you didn't buy those so big..." This place makes me want to cry every time I leave there. AND THE BEST PART IS?? I have an electronic tracker on my computer that makes sure I'm accounted for from 8:30am to 5:30 pm, Monday to Friday. No room in that schedule for interviewing elsewhere. Grrrr...

1. I am officially starting us over at ONE!!! Okay, okay, I'll raise my hand. But, but Marm messed it up before me! (Course she posted simultaneously with Vacanick so had no idea) . . . and see--cuz I'm both long-winded and reduced to one-fingering the keys, it took me longer to type my 10. And then Max needs lessons, and I was about to help when I just said, "Who cares!?!"

1. I'm so glad you all got the "Let's do 10 Facts on Feb. 22nd" memo from me!

2. I adore all you Factoiders because you bring fun and great facts to this thread!!

1. ROFLMAO!! Thanks for all of the great laughs! I needed that today!

2. Apparently, I missed the memo but most of you that have met me know I could talk your ears off, so maybe that's a good thing! LOL

3. I really don't have much to say. I'm watching TV. Gee, there's a novel concept here.

1. It sort of looks like a skip in a record in here. It jumps from 1 to 10, back to 1, then a few more thrown in just willy-nilly.

2. I gotta tell you, my head is spinning.

3. I LOVE RED!

4. I'm enjoying this season of AI. I can't carry a tune in a bucket, so I'm impressed with others' singing talent.

5. My dh has had a cold for about 2 weeks. I didn't catch it....until last night. <sniffle>

6. It's silly to try to figure out who you really caught a cold from because germs are everywhere.

7. For extra protection, I bought some anti-bacterial hand soap at Bath & Bodyworks this week. It is Juniper Breeze scent. Nice smell, but now I have a cold. Don't use anti-bacterial soap.

8. I started wearing glasses in first grade. I've never tried contacts (or is it contacs?) because I'm too squeamish to put things into my eyes. Actually, I think I could get them in but it looks creepy taking them out.

9. I still read everyone's facts every day and really enjoy the sharing. I send positive thoughts to all who need them and laugh with those who are happy.

10. Can a schtickler still schtickle when she only has 7 schtickling fingers? <just wondering>

10.1 OOOPS! That fact was a question!
10.1278 Phew! I fixed it!

eta: LOL! The memo was probably lost in the board crash. Luckily, some of us knew what to do. Hi Eggie! Glad to see you can schtill schtickle!

Why, Vee, 10.1 was a fact, which made up for the question I posted as fact 10. Right? :-)

1. Oh my ... I had no idea this would happen!

2. Schoolmarm and I both posted 10 at the same time. That was the innocent error that started this silly mess!

3. Then Herckie posted 10. We all know how sweet Herckie is ... but could she have actually been trying to start the whole "10" mess? Hmmmm

4. Then Landi tried to stop it but by then it was out of control. Good try Landi

5. In comes Vee, our voice of reason, yet still we're not back on track. Vee

6. I say it's 10 Tuesday!

7. Have I mentioned that red is my favorite color?

8. Hey what happened to Nick, I bet he'd have something to say about this craziness!

9. Where are those schticklers when you need them?

10. Fun, fun, fun ... that's what it's all about! Just ask Jbean ... I'm sure she'd agree!
