I am very bored.
I am at work. But it's really, really slow.

Please ask me something. Or tell me something. Anything.

Please?!?!? :)

I beg.

24. That's where I work.
A newspaper. And yeah, the industry sucks. It's like a dead end but I do like what I do. The pay sucks and our company is run ny repukes but I do like it. Newspapers business in general is really down.

38. I think the account is free for a year
and then you have to pay for it. Not sure how much and if you need to pay for each one you signed up. I haven't had them for a year yet. Kind of wondering how that's gonna work.

23. ShineBoy and I are having a mellow Mother/Son weekend
MrShine and ShineGirl took off to San Luis Obispo for a special Father/Daughter weekend and we're hangin' on the homefront, watching DVD rentals and taking it easy.

He was accidentally pushed down some stairs yesterday at his middle school, another 8th grader classmate was "aggressively friendly" and pushed him right as he was at the top of 5 stairs. He fell to the ground and sprained his ankle, so he's kind of gimped out for the weekend, which affects what we can do...or not do.

We'll be watching a lot of movies. :D

:hi:
