And I get to decide if it's a snow day or a work from home day.  No wonder I like winter more than I used to

LOl  yep I have outdoor parking at work and at home,and no decision making power over the snow day


when I worked at the last job we had underground parking   it was wonderful to never worry about scraping the snow off thecar before heading home at night

I've never stayed at South of the Border, but I do enjoy its kitsch.  I haven't even eaten a real meal there, just something fast.

I did, however, wind up with a lousy Super 8 motel room a few miles north of there at the Lumberton, NC exit.  I'll never know why I thought I should save a few bucks by choosing that instead of the Holiday Inn across the road -- which I'd already been at a few years prior, and it was perfectly nice.  Bottom line, I probably didn't save ANY bucks, and the room and bed were horrible.

We are mourning the loss of a 21 year old woman  the best friend on my friend's daughter.  She broke down on the highway was on the shoulder well away from traffic. The town truck had just arrived to take her to safety when a 51 year old man drove right into the back if her car at speed the speed limit there is 55 and he was probably exceeding that he never braked. Her car was  destroyed as was the life's of her family and friends.  The same age as my Vixter...

A terrible and totally avoidable tragedy

That is terrible!  My condolences to her family and friends. :(

I worked very late last night.  My coworker who was out for 9 months last year after having a cancerous kidney removed followed by a lumpectomy and radiation  went for her routine 6 month screening and was told the insidious monster has returned.  She meets with her surgeon Tuesday

We had an almost identical accident here in Washington!

I thought Vixmom's story sounded familiar.  I thought that they were the same story. :-\

I think I am coming down with a cold, so I am going to bed very early.

Before Monday Nov. 17, I can look forward to see BK, DRs Kevin, Ginny, vixmom, Ben, ChasSmith, and more I'm sure, and I want to be in good health and fine fettle for the partay!

So, good night, one and all.  Full health report in the morning.

So the Vixter has picked up another job

She was at the Deals store (she worked there last  year and quit when  the college semester started) and they had a hiring notice up.  There is a new manager there who doesn't know her, but  several of the employees  gave unsolicited recommendations to him as she was filling in the application so he hired her on the spot

Congrats to the Vixter!

I haven't been feeling too well today, but I did climb up on the garage roof to caulk a place where the slate shingles have separated and it looks like water can leak in.  I need to call a roofer to fix it, but so far all the roofers have lengthy waiting periods.  I'm hoping that my caulk job will help until I can do more

I am constantly amazed by you Cilla... the last time I climbed up on my roof was ....never

 ;D

I climbed a few roofs in my lifetime, but I was just a child then.  No way am I going up one now.

When I was a kid and we lived in Colorado on base (my dad was in the army), the divider between the housing units' back porches allowed us to climb up on the roof.  We didn't do it too often, but it was pretty fun.  It was all at a low angle and the housing units were only one story, so it wasn't incredibly dangerous.

Today, I went to work for a couple of hours, then went down to The Midnight Sun (Theater Artists Olympia's newish home) and I installed a new door knob on the bathroom door.  At some point during the last weekend of "The Complete Works of Shakespeare (Abridged) [revised]", one of the knobs fell off and eventually disappeared!  Who'd want one door knob?

Anyway, I actually had a door knob set that I bought for my condo but never used, and it fit on the door.  The bar that goes through the door is a tiny bit smaller than the original, so it wiggles a tiny bit, but it otherwise fits and works. :)

This is something that a friend posted/commented about on FB:  Instead Of Getting Buried, People Are Doing This With Their Ashes. And I Think It's Pretty Awesome.

Essentially, after you die, instead of getting buried, you can be cremated and have your ashes made into diamonds!  It is a pretty interesting concept...expensive, I'm sure, but interesting.
