This is a bit off topic, but I didn't know you were in Trenton Neesy. My older daughter,Sarah went to Loyalist College
in Belleville and was on air with 95.5 FM there after graduation for 5 years. They she went on to Ottawa for a few years, on air their too. Small world isn't it.
Both of my sons were born in Belleville Ontario

Yup - small world!

Chinese take-out day at work! I gave my order to receptionist and said, "Can you ask them for chopsticks?"

"What?? (like I suddenly grew a third eye) "You know how to use chopsticks?, I never had to ask for that before.. you think they have them?"

"Well, yes. I'm pretty sure they have them - and some dishes just seem to taste better that way"

I am now feeling bad for asking and a little weird on top if it.

Food delivered. She says, "Here look! They gave an extra!, keep this in your drawer!! nobody else will want them"

Felt like she was watching me eat and also told others.

:hopelessness: This place.

I now have sacred red sleeved wooden sticks in my drawer at work.
Don't tell anyone.

Have to tell y'all about bucketball. Yes, bucketball at this place. It happens at break times.
Involves the larger paint buckets and a superball. All shop men. But me.

It's tough to lob a superball into a bucket very far away. Many bounces and could hit a crack in pavement - and goes wild. Everyone has a style.

Hey hey. I'm in. Used to play second base. They are very serious, and funny. Flags thrown .. We are still in pre-season. (ha) Everyone has a bucketball name. Mine is 'dribbles', they have to be family friendly as there is a newsletter that the company can see. Much cursing and ribbing goes on.

(I saw clipboard lady out there the other week, I was still on injury reserve due to surgery) I am sure she is taking notes.

Kicked all butts the other day. scored 4. Damn, they said.

Yes, I need a life.

Yesterday my. Mentally ill co-worker asked me if I thought that the new store manager was sending him voddo vibes like invisible laSer beers and he had to call in sick because some one was going to arrest him and he had to clean his yard for 8 hours. And he asked me if I was laughing at him, and I said no I was laughing at a 18 year old Wayne Gretzky head shots form his official Wayne Gretzky fan club. (Wayne was the home town hero and was a teen hearth throb in the mid to late 80's)
