Yes, I do hate dancing, but we'll save that for another day ( Read more... )

The Spreadsheets of Doom I edit have lists of Insurance Brokers in them. I clean up similar records, standardizing them into a single record. Here are 2 records I just came across in the Florida file. Keep in mind, we pull this information off a government filing. So someone wrote that 1st entry into the box on the form where it says "Enter The ( Read more... )

I just upgraded to a plus account for the extra 10 user pics. Apparently it means I have to see ads. For how often I access LJ, I can live with that. But if it means ads pop onto into anyone else's experience, let me know, and I'll knock it back down ( Read more... )

I pulled a sweater from the back of my closet today, one that says 'nice business wear' instead of 'goes with jeans!' since the rumor is a corporate bigwig will be in town today ( Read more... )

I'm not subbed anymore, but at least one of the icons it defaulted me to has the word "motherfucker" in it.

Oh, and since it would be very odd for me to post twice in 1 day (or 1 month): I've officially lost 10 lbs. Go me.

A rickabamboo? Now what is that?

There. Now I'm not alone in having that song in my head. Thank you Enoch and Liz. And if any of the rest of you went to Y camp, maybe you can join in the chorus.

Today is John and my 3rd anniversary. Yes, yes, I know, some of you think that it's January 1st instead, but...shut up. Allow us our arbitrary day of celebration. Jesus gets one.

I sent an Edible Arrangement to his office. We're going to the Melting Pot tonight for dinner. Had I known this at the time I ordered it, I probably wouldn't have ( Read more... )

For the last month or so, I've been getting nearly-daily headaches in the office. They show up around noon, reside in the sinuses and seem to be immune to medication. They disappear about an hour after I leave work ( Read more... )
