A 'joint' made out of pizza? Is that even legal in your state? ;;D
Gee - how did I miss your comment? You must be talking to Dana Jean - I come from a Canadian "province" and it isn't even one of the more popular ones!

Nah - like that Ringo Starr song goes:

- no, no, no, no - I don't smoke it no more - I'm tired of waking up on the floor;
no thank you please, it only makes me sneeze and then it makes it hard to find the door

How did they react? Did it come as a surprise?
I wrote a formal resignation statement and handed it to her. She didn't say anything to me in person, but waited until she left work and sent me a text saying that she was sorry if she has done something to hurt me, etc etc.....
She didn't really seem surprised. She sent a text to all my co workers telling them that effective Dec 1st, I would no longer be working there.....I found that really odd.
We will see what today brings.....I have only two days left, since it is a holiday weekend. :laugh:

Seems a tad cold on her part. She could have at least faced you and your co workers. May your day go smoothly- an sonly success and calm at the new job.

Just received my Christmas present to myself in the mail today- a 1st printing hardback of East Of Eden by John Steinbeck! It's absolutely beautiful! The dust jacket is nearly flawless with hardly any fading to the spine at all, which for a 60 year old book is saying alot! I'm doing my happy dance!!!!
Well Merry Xmas to you KRF!! What a nice gift-giver you are!

As everyone here in the states starts gearing up for T-day and travelling, just a wish to stay safe!

((All in need or not))

Every time I do a re-read of it I find something new. It's crazy-weird! To quote Steinbeck's intro:
'Dear Pat,
You came upon me carving some kind of little figure out of wood and you said "Why don't you make something for me?"
I asked you what you wanted, and you said "A box."
"What for?"
"To put things in."
"What things?"
"Whatever you have," you said.
Well, here's your box. Nearly everything I have is in it, and it is not full. Pain and excitement are in, and feeling good or bad and evil thoughts and good thoughts - the pleasure of design and some despair and the indescribable joy of creation.
And on top of these are all the gratitude and love I have for you.
And still the box is not full.
John.'


This book is a treasure!
This intro reminds me of the one Steve has in The Stand:
'For Tabby,
This dark chest of wonders.'

I always find something new in this one, too.
Gave me a chill (Good writing does that :D).

Back from MRI. It was way way worse than I thought it would be. I was expecting a CAT scan type of thing. I have had that. No lights a spinning this time.

This horrible drumming and chirping all the time in that tube. They gave me earplugs and something to hold and squeeze if I could not stand it anymore.

I took it. No squeeze.

Then hells, finally get out of there and walk outside, only to get hit up by people asking for money and cigs
