Randoms

Sharp chedddar, apples and crackers today.

1) Heard on the radio: "I hate it when people use text messaging abbreviations on the internet." Um, the whole abbreviation thing STARTED on the internet.

2) Peet's. We now have a Peet's coffee, which excites me very much. It's not a real, stand alone Peet's, just a coffee bar within the mall at the Sundance theatre. We stopped to get coffee today and it doesn't open til 9:00 a.m. Boooo hisssssss. Then Chris missed our turn to Ancora, so we ended up at Starbuck's. My grande nonfat vanilla latte *rolls eyes at lingo* is a tasty treat this morning.

3) Drinkwell Fountain. Yesterday we bought our cats a water fountain drink container. They seem to like playing with it more than drinking from it so far.

4) Bras. I need a new bra or two. I have one I love, and for the first time in my life, I'm going to seek out that same one online and order one or two, just in different colors. This makes me feel old.

ETA 5) My office. I have a mini fridge, coffee pot, toaster and a food storage cabinet that my boss and I share. A few times a year someone else uses the microwave, but I can handle that. I also made the mistake of putting food on my desk a few times and now my boss just brings everything into my office and puts it on my desk. And then she stands there and eats while talking to me. I can't stand it any longer. The microwave and coffee pot are going into the conference room. The fridge will stay, but I'm trying to figure out where to move the food cabinet.

I HATE the internet abbreviations. And text messaging for that matter. I have a good friend that will not answer e-mail or voice mail but if you text him, you'll hear from him a few minutes. Grrr!

It's hard to find a decent sharp cheddar down here. And all the cheese is orange. *pout* I am definitely missing some Vermont Sharp Cheddar.

Have you seen the commercial where the son, daughter and grandmother are speaking "text message" language to each other? LOL. It's funny. I don't text message and wouldn't know the first thing about it.

I've never been to a Peet's.

We have the Drinkwell fountain. The cats love it. You have to be vigilant about cleaning it out but it's easy to do.

I need a new bra also but HATE shopping for them.

I hate text messaging. I'm not deft at it, nor do I really care to be. But then again, I'm not a big phone person either. That commercial DOES crack me up, Nookie!

I need to get measured for a bra. I've never had one that was really comfortable, so I'm thinking I've been buying the wrong size. I desperately need new bras. One of my favorites just broke (heh. I broke my bra!) and I'm down to 1 or 2 wearable ones.

I just bought two Bali ones online. They are styles I know fit well and I found them for about $10/bra less than in the store. And a coupon for shipping made it only $34 for two good bras delivered right to my door.

So you work in a kitchen?

I would like to get measured for a bra too. I wouldn't know where to go though.

I've never been to Peet's either. I'm staying away from Starbucks and my beloved Chai, as the calories are outrageous.

I will have to check on this Drinkwell fountain thingy. Sounds cool.

BTW, I'm listening to Fergie again

*makes note to text message Kim sometime*

Well, many people have commented that I just need a cot in here. I have a fridge, toaster, microwave, coffee pot, Swiffer and a rug under my desk.

DF-JCPenny's does fittings, as does Victoria's Secret.

I don't think VS carries any bras in my size. But I'll check Penneys.

I really dislike the abbreviations more when used in email. Just seems lazy to me. KWIM?
