    Funny fact: Squirrel skins were used as currency in Finland in ancient times.

    Not funny fact: ninja squirrels will creep into your tent at night and steal all of your food.

    And then coldly, silently kill you while you sleep.

    Also: lots of work, very little motivation.

    Dammit: my coworker said it best today: "It's a Monday-Tuesday, the worst kind of day."

    So far I have: been called into work at 7am, had to deal with one boss dropping the ball completely (but at least she took the blame for it), cranky kids who are out of sorts after 4 days off of daycare, a meeting that lasted an hour and a half...I'll stop there.

    At least I get to go to the garden tonight. Yippee skippy.

    what were their parents doing, non-parenting stuff?

    bottom line - ain't your fault...

    No, Freeload ... this was delivered to me by the restaurant. Supposed to be a treat.
    Actually, it was very nice ... apart from those prawns [​IMG]

    Do you do Labor Day in Norway? Closest we get to it is 'Late Summer Bank Holiday', which was one or two weeks earlier. Snowy's "Monday-Tuesday, the worst kind of day" is, IMO, a classic - so true.

    EAC and Firefox doing an Netflix Instant View do not play together nicely - who'd of thunk it?
    And where the hell do they come up with some of the Anime out there? Started watching H.O.T.D. - High School of the Dead - and certainly starts out with a bang at least.

    The cold front came through. Last night I left all the windows open and added another blanket.

    CinnamonGirl The Cheat is GROUNDED!

    My mom was having trouble viewing the pictures I emailed her...she could see the thumbnails, but couldn't get them to load when she opened them. I ended up sending her a photobucket link.

    Funny story, though...she saw the thumbnail of Wil Wheaton & me, and thought that Wil Wheaton was Lordeden.

    Lordeden was on Star Trek? Was he an unfortunate redshirt facing the tennis ball/slimy blob to be added in post-production?

    lol...Not as far as I know :) But I guess he and Wheaton look vaguely similar when the pics are tiny. *shrug*

    I think I could live at the garden. Maybe next summer I will.

    Today sucked. A Tuesday that felt like a Monday and only three days of work left in a week with a fucking metric shit ton left to do.

    I was thinking of curry as "curry" in a big porcelain bowl...

    We do have a Labor Day equivalent in Norway, the first of May. Called May Day, or International Workers' Day. When I grew up my family was so hard to the left they where almost red, so we would participate in the parade and such. Nowadays there's hardly any celebrations going on. There are some parades in the bigger cities, but most of us treat it like just another day off.
