Right now I'm ... Janine awesomeness

>> I loathe my dentist's office<<I couldn't go to a dentist's office that I couldn't tolerate. I hate having dental work done and when I go for any procedure, I take my i-Pod Shuffle and listen to my favorite tunes while being worked on. It helps me relax. My dentist - and hygienist - are great. I manage to get to the office because of that.
when i'm at the dentist i just open my mouth, close my eyes, listen to the music playing on the radio and wait for the sign he's done.
>>i just open my mouth, close my eyes, listen to the music playing on the radio <<I had to do that on my last visit. My Shuffle needing recharging so I had to go cold turkey. It really wasn't bad.
I just got back from the dentist, where they were playing soft rock from the 80's. Rod Stewart, Fleetwood Mac, and Huey Lewis and the News. I think the music does something to the receptionists' brains - both of them had way overdone highlights in their hair.
No Steely Dan, though, which I actually LIKE. I don't know what this world is coming to...
Right now I'm eating a Honeycrisp apple the size of my head.

Maybe Rock Island, IL? One of the Quad Cities.

Why are they always so big? I try to find the smaller ones at the farmer's market, but I wind up with apples that should be an entire meal.
You don't see that every day.
This afternoon one of the students tried to get Skittles from the vending machine, but they got stuck and wouldn't fall. I leaned against the vending machine, tilting it a little, and the Skittles fell.
Right now I am cursing RA. All these new moderators have resulted in a quadrupling of the number of posts occurring overnight. Damn, I have come online this morning, there are thousands of new posts to read. It's going to take all morning to read them and I have work to do...
Nup, I'm not going to stir 'The Man' any further this morning. I value my life. :D

I wouldn't try that again. Vending machines can kill.
vending machines don't kill people, people kill people and when they outlaw vending machines, only outlaws will have vending machines
That is correct Kevin, but vending machines can kill your patience.
I only had to rock the vending machine a little...like push it into another vending machine until the Skittles fell. One of the students said I was her hero then.
Rocking the vending machine -- is that a euphemism?
Right now I'm feeling down. I'm not sad but its just that something is off. I just need to say it.
contemplating getting out of my pj's and going out into the world for one last little item for my gift exchange. I love snowy, cold days when I don't have to be outside ALL day.
thinking of microwaving some sweet buttery popcorn. Who put that idea into my head?
Trying to figure out how to kill the afternoon without starting anything new. Or doing anything productive. Or having to think too much.

I'm deciding to walk away from GR for a spell. Maybe a month ... maybe a week ... maybe a day ... who knows? See y'all later, anyway. Carry on.*braces for the withdrawal*
I hope it's just a day. Unless that's selfish and you need more time *sigh*

Wait a minute, Larry. What's going on with you? Why don't you stay with us and talk about whatever's on your mind? You obviously have friends here.
Right now I am ... mourning. A close Aunt of mine just passed away this morning. =(
i am sorry you lost your aunt yzobelle, i hope you and your family can mourn your loss together.
Thanks Janine! It was really a shock for everyone.
Sorry for you loss Yzobelle.Hurry back Larry, I will miss your wit, and charm. We'll be here when you come back friend.

Name three.
Name three.
I got an iPhone last night! I'm giddy playing with it on my lunchbreak! Just thought I'd share. Carry on.
i have decided i am officially sick.
janine wrote: "i have decided i am officially sick."aww bummer, janine! Hope it passes quickly.
How sick, Janine? Stay home and read on the couch sick? Or miserable sick?
if i had a couch, yes. i think i'm going to move to my parents for the weekend, they have really good couches.
That is an EXCELLENT plan, Janine. Will they make you soup? They should make you soup, too.
And bring you blankets, and fluff your pillow when needed.
right now I'm wondering what happened to GR? Was there a makeover? WHy is the format so different?
nevermind, my computer was being wierd
did I spell wierd wrong? Is it wierd or weird?

What kind of comments? Does she scold you for not flossing? I can't imagine a hygienist having that kind of attitude. You must really like your dentist if you stay with him despite her.
