I still fill just a teeny bit queasy, but I think it's just from the whole weirdness. I took the Band-Aid off and it little "gash" is quite minor, so that's good. I cleaned up the dresser - I should have taken a photograph of it.

George--you should have gotten 30% every DVD and CD you got, at least if your a Border's Rewards Member. As TD will concur, they're having a storewide sale until January 4. You don't need a coupon. If you didn't get the discount, you should take the receipt back and demand one.

Or just do what I do when they good coupons come up: I just print off multiple copies, and go multiple times throughout the weekend.

*That method really came in handy down in Northern Virginia where there five Border's locations within a five-mile radius. So, if one location happened to be out of an item, well...

The interesting thing about it is that I knew it was going to happen - the possibility of it, which is why I was trying to get back to the bed quickly. I should have just allowed myself to sit in bed and getting fully awake before jumping up and heading to the bathroom - because this happened years ago, I'm usually very careful about that - but this morning I just wasn't.

Last night, I was going to post a response to this post by Der Brucer, but the day was locked. Fortunately, I saved it before I tried to post and here it is:

I'm going to Border's to use my 30% off coupon on ANY ONE ITEM

The one item limit is for books, only - CDs/DVDs are 30% off - unlimited.

Shop 'til you drop.

Not for me. The coupon that I got specified only one item.

I posted the all-you can-buy CD/DVDs the other day:

Unfortunately that tiny * says not valid in Seattle/Tacoma WA

DR DRuxy,

I am glad you verified Pat's well being.

By they way, did you ever know Donnelly Rhodes or Ann Wedgeworth?

No reason, other then the mention of Pat Harrington somehow reminded me of these other two 1970s tv people (who are both favorites of mine).

Sorry, never met them.

BTW: I also called Abe Vigoda in NY to wish him a Happy New Year.

He's still alive, too.

DR ELMORE there haven't been dependable shipping services since the Pony Express stopped running.

And with the Indian troubles, even that could be unreliable.

Ooh, speaking of Abe Vigoda, here's a very rough draft of the sequel/encore (which nobody asked for) to the Jeremy Piven-Fish-Zip parody. Just coicindence that Druxy would mention Abe Vigoda

Fish!
Lincoln Center’s South Pacif was a find!
Fish!
Yeargan’s ocean set brought clambakes to mind!

Fish!
I think Jaws on stage would really kick ass
Fish!
With Bill Finn’s great songs and starring Lance Bass!

I could go for any marlin
Blue or Brando would be darlin’
Fish
I must have my quota

You can hook it, you can trawl it
Anything if you can call it
Fish!
Get me Abe Vigoda

Fish!
Tell my dresser to run out for some shark
Fish!
Where the hell is Marky Mark?

BK, I'm sorry to hear about your fall today. My dad about 10 years ago had a similar problem and his fall resulted in a huge gash next to his his eye socket. I'm still grateful he wasn't blinded. I hope you're feeling better now.

I forgot today was the deadline for estimated NY State income taxes so i made out my check and ran to the post office with it. They closed at noon; i arrived at 12:20.

Luckily, a postman told me he could take it and get it postmarked today. So I trusted him. I know this will come back and bite my ass.

FJL · « **Reply #135 on:** December 31, 2008, 10:04:12 AM »

Lar - Today is the "deadline" for NYS esrtimated tax to deduct it Federally in 2008. The very very worst that can happen if something goes terribly wrong with the postmark is that the NYS payment will be deductible for 2009 instead of 2008.

I'm sure it will be okay but after NY State Tax's big surprise yesterday, I don't trust them.

As I noted above - the sale does not apply to "selected Borders" in the hinterlands like Seattle/Tacoma or Dayton.

DR Michael S - When you attach pictures to posts now, they will automatically appear as thumbnails. However, when you click on them, they will expand to full size. -Just make sure the full-size image is actually larger than the thumbnail.
