Cheddar and bacon spread with assorted crackers today. Seems like the holiday season thing to have. I've been doing a lot of misc. posts lately. Sorry if that's boring.
1. Chris did a very sweet thing yesterday. He picked me up at the bus stop because a) it was bitter cold, and b) there were lots of pissed off offenders walking the same office-bus route I'd be.
2. My boss is driving me nuts. She has no clue that she works in a completely spastic way. Everyone else knows this (even people that don't directly work for her). It used to be manageable, but she's so overextended now and I don't see her committments changing anytime in the next few years.
3. I bought a spin toothbrush yesterday. Long ago, my dentist recommended a Sonic Care one, but I couldn't bring myself to spend that much money on a toothbrush. So instead, I finally ponied up $17 for a rechargable precision spin one (Crest, I think). Do you have a spinny toothbrush? Do you like it? I couldn't use mine yet this morning because it has to charge for 20 hours for the first use.
4. My poster presentation for the conference next week is almost done. I should have to the printers by noon today. I think it looks fabulous. It's hard to do qualitative research posters and make them look nice because there's not a lot of opportunity for charts and graphs. It's often just a lot of words. Now on to my Dallas 2 hour lecture/discussion presentation. Yeep.
5. The new season of The Real Housewives of Orange County started. It's my guilty pleasure. That, and The Hills. I think it's because I'd like to be rich. :-)

This blog is a collection of things on my mind. Could be serious, could be rambling idiocy. I invite you all to read, debate, ridicule, *whack*, and even give me a little love.

Misc posts are good.
1. Awwwww!
2. Talk to her about getting her an assistant.
3. Someone...I forget who...Seana?...had a dead spinny toothbrush. I think I want one.
4. Check your email
5. I have no guilty pleasures at the moment. :(
I wanna go to Dallas with youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
I have an el-cheapo Crest spin brush (about $6, I think.) I do like it. I don't know if it does an appreciably better job on my teeth, but psychologically I feel like it does.
Yay Chris!
Sorry about your boss.
We have the Oral B Sonic rechargeable toothbrush and we love it. Ask you dentist if the spinner one is better than a regular toothbrush.
Do you actually give the lectures yourself? *shudder*
I enjoy watching the Real Housewives but haven't seen the new season. I think I'm like you, I like watching it because I like to see how the other side lives. Some of those women are fugly though. Way too much plastic surgery on their faces.
My bosses are always insane. I think it's n the job description.
Nice job Chris!
I'll hold up the poster for your Dallas presentation. I'm already sick of cold.
My kids have spinny toothbrushes. They actually use them too, which is a plus.
I like misc posts. It's like having a conversation with a friend. Doesn't always have to be something earth shattering.
DD has the musical toothbrush. The ones that play a song and that's how long they're supposed to brush for. Her's plays a song from High School Musical. *grin*
1. Awww!
2. Grrr!
3. Nope!
4. Yike!
5. Cool!
MTW <-- all about four letter words and exclamation points today!!!
1. Why are the pissed-off offenders walking? Aren't they allowed to actually ride the buses?
2. All bosses are nuts. See Bob above.
3. I have a Crest toothbrush like Frodis. I like it. Dentist says it's good too.
4. I like poster presentations bcause you get to power skim through the ones that don't interest you. But I'm sure yours is fascinating! Really, really fascinating.
5. Don't watch it and don't watch it. My guilty pleasure is Hotel Babylon. I want to live in that place for real!
1. He is a sweet guy.
2. I feel like I could be your boss.
3. I have a cheap Crest one at the office. I think it was $5. I like it.
4. I'm sure it looks great. And I'm sure Dallas will be great.
5. Today I watched FNL at lunch. That was my guilty pleasure today. I should have gone to the gym. But I had a meeting that conflicted, and I needed to have good hair for it. So I will have to go after work.
Kimmy is not coming to Dallas. She's going to Ft Worth. *pout* That's on the OTHER side of Dallas from me. Waaaaaaaaaaaah!!!!
A poster presentation?
Dork
We have electric toothbrushes: Oral B by Braun. It's actually two toothbrushes in one charger.
For the past couple of years, it broke about a week before the warranty was up. Each time, we took it back to the store and got a brand new one. I told Mr. Puffy that we should do this every year.
My dentist recommends them. We each have two toothbrushes: one for the teeth and a skinny one for the gums and inbetween the teeth and gums. I don't brush long enough. I brush my whole mouth in the time it says to brush 1/4 of your mouth.
Sometimes I use my old "manual" toothbrush just for the heck of it.
Momma: I'm working on the assistant thing for my boss. She technically has one, but she's unreliable and incompetent.
Breezy: I told Chris I wanted a musical one. :-)
Frodis: Mine is like sandblasting my teeth. I used it last night and today, and still need more practice.
Nookie: Yep, I'm the presenter. Indeed shudder worthy. And, yes, I also think some of the housewives are fugly. I bet they were all prettier before the plastic surgery and too much tanning.
MTW: Oh, I have some four letter words I'd like to use, too.
Bob: I just told my boss that graduate programs induce mental health problems in people. Thus, that's why all the academics (and most students) are a little crazy.
DF: Can you fold up into my poster tube carrier? Technically, the poster presentation is in SF. If you want to go to Dallas, you can be my powerpoint clicker.
Swami: Thanks for being nice, but I'm sure you'd power skim mine. :-)
And the offenders were walking from the office to the bus transfer point to catch a bus. I was walking from the transfer point to the office to catch a Chris.
Boo: Do you go home and watch tv at lunch?
Puffy: It's very cute you visit your old toothbrush sometimes. :-) Chris pouted that I didn't get him one. I didn't know he'd want one, and I figured I'd try it out first in case they sucked.
Bravie: Hi Pot, I'm Kettle.
