Off Topic Part Quatre

[trailmix 77]

Ew. Just ew, MrsCat... I was going to get some lunch but i think I'll wait. I was thinking of hitting you up for a crumpet to be honest.

Have a good trip, to the Toon, Flames! That sounds like fun, actually -- I don't like Tim hortons but I love me some Second Cup, I tell you...

Can anyone give me a brief lesson on the multiquote thing? I tried to quote flames and MrsCat but failed...

Well I would think how it is supposed to work is that you would just click multiquote on both posts and reply - but hey, that doesn't work haha.

What I do is go to the first post I want to reply to, copy it, go to the next one and hit reply and paste that first quote in there as well.

Wish I could help you, but I can never seem to work this mutiquote/reply thing properly... I've given up trying!!

Testing...

Edit: seemed to work just fine for me. Hit multiquote on both posts, then hit reply on the bottom of the thread.

That sucks Raven and Joyce! Applying for jobs is nothing but a pain. I've applied for several the past two weeks or so, and I keep getting e-mails from people asking me to confirm that I'm still interested in the position. I mean, if I apply for your job today, and then you e-mail me tomorrow asking me if I'm still interested, there's about a 98.9% chance I'm still going to be available. And then I get the generic, "a decision will be made in the coming weeks" Well thank you very much, I'll just sit here for a month hoping you'll call me... or not. Geez. It's not really a matter of life or death, I'd just like to get out there and start doing something.

In other news, we're expecting 5-8 inches of snow tonight and into tomorrow. And I thought it was spring...

Our yard is a complete disaster and I want to start planning some landscaping but It's really hard when you don't know if the nice weather is here to stay, or if you're going to get hammered with snow again. The backyard is all dirt and has about 30 years of leaves lingering about, and the front yard isn't much better. Apparently whoever lived here before didn't care at all... or maybe nobody who has lived here cared at all.

OMG OMG OMG I'm such a blonde. No, really, I am. Tim shakes his head at me all the time. Guess it just makes life interesting...

Thanks Huggles..nice to have support. I feel awful cause I'm collecting EI, and I haven't found a job yet!! Oh well, I'm sure something will come around soon. Something I found out today though..the Curves I go to hired someone!! Helllloooooo!! She knows I'm looking, and it's what I did back home!! Whatever..I'll survive.

Hope you stay warm tonight. We've had some great weather here, then it will rain and be cold. Guess that's part of the South. This backyard needs a major helping hand too. I'm going to see how much it will cost to hire landscapers and just get it over with. Tim's house needs lots of work too!! *maybe I'm to busy for a job??*

At least you get some feedback, Huggles! I don't hear from them or even get their "FU"-letter! Ah, the old days...

A new fresh start on an exciting project! I wanna get back into gardening again.

I've been saying that to myself for a while. I've been so busy with helping my husband start his new business venture, and then moving and settling into our new house, I've been thinking that squeezing in a job is going to be hard! But, then again, maybe a job will be a good excuse not to have to be super woman and help everyone with everything all the time, right? When you're a working woman Tim may have to step it up a little!

Yeah really. I don't care if you're not interested in what I have to offer, just let me know so I can move on!

I actually got an FU letter the other day. It was actually quite amusing! It was very generic and then at the end it said that the person they hired has 15 years more experience then I do. Ok then! 15 years. Well good for you! Can't really argue with those numbers!

Wow, did I miss that post? What new business venture? Is it something you can do with him, or no? I've discussed with Tim a business I think would be fun! But we need to check out all the rules about starting your own business, buying the things you need...etc...etc...etc...so it may not get off the ground just yet..

Well his parents own a business up in Denver and they decided to expand by opening a new branch down here in Southern CO. Right now he's the only employee (which is grand fun for him...) But I also get to help out quite a bit, ya know, for no pay and little appreciation from the inlaws? It's not such a fantastic situation I assure you They say that when business reaches a certain level (they have this numeric value in their head that may or may not be reached anytime soon) they want to hire me on to help. I'm really not holding my breath or sitting around waiting for that to happen, that's for sure.

Speaking of which, off to my job that doesn't pay anything I go

Well, at least it's something for you to do. I may just see about volunteering somewhere till I get something. Course..little to busy for that too! Two places I wouldn't mind would be the SPCA, and a woman's shelter. Like a transition house.

don't know why but that struck me as funny.... sorry for your frustrations though...*picked up on that when you said.."vent" thread*.. *giggles* I'm not so blonde after all!!
