I'm all set

We don't see your name among the Many,000,000,000 POTS orders received over the weekend, no SM ma'am.

 

Order now, because your green card (and, in fact, your passport) gets adorned with a special code for "POTS owner" that facilitates many perks and streamlined processes, si ma'am.

[TBoneTX 45,329]

Such order volume, woo-hoo man!

The World has officially renamed today "POTS Monday," acknowledgment man.

[TBoneTX 45,329]

Scintillating repartee on most of POTS Monday, yawn man.

Everyone must be deciding on which POTS they like best, mighty tough choice man.

[TBoneTX 45,329]

Scintillating repartee all day/night, zzz man.

If all the POTS options are overwhelming to choose from, ask for help, we aim to please man.

According to my study of the USCIS website I'm hoping I'm reading it correctly that now I have my green card in my sweaty paw I can come & go as I please as long as I have that. Dominican Republic does not require a visa unless you stay longer than 30 days, so I'm all set-just a matter of running to the pharmacy today to get a couple of shots(Hep A & Typhoid) throw a few things in a case(including the two pepper sprays I purchased yesterday, one is purse sized & the other is a tiny one with a carbine that will clip onto my bikini) & off I pop!

This time next week I'll be on my way there

I talked to a man from the DR yesterday.  He said to stay away from areas in the Capital city, don't walk around with jewelry on, and if you're on a resort, just stay on the resort.

What Niki-B. says is what you'll probably have to resort to, si SM ma'am.

Scintillating repartee since our last post, yawn man.

If it's that traumatic to select a pre-owned toilet seat, ask for our advice, remove pressure man.

My coworker (Female, 50-60years old) just got back from an 11 day vacation and thus her chaotic energy has returned.
Today I spent 30 min explaining to her that if she saves something on her desktop, it won’t be on mine if I log into that same computer with my own credentials.
“Why didn’t you do this while I was on vacation”
I don’t have access to those files
“What do you mean they’re right here”.
We also have a network drive that the entire lab can access from any computer in the lab but she doesn’t understand that either so she doesn’t use it. This is not the first time I’ve had to explain both of these to her. When I first started I thought my coworker was just having a bad day when he stated that she doesn't listen to anything anyone says, but this was instead a warning.

 

Then an hour later she felt the need to give me the most disgusted and disapproving look when she noticed that I had a tattoo. Then said "why on earth would you do that" Nd then "you really want that on you for the rest of your life??". I’m doing my best with not letting it bug me but nonetheless it was rude. She asked me twice if it was temporary and was visibly disappointed when I said no each time. Next time she asks I'm going to tell her the tattoo will come off when I shed my skin next. She is not pleasant to work with. I just want one day where she doesn't raise her voice to me. Just one.

So, you work with my mother?

 

I got a larger forearm tattoo, she gets off the plane and tells me it is awful, ugly, and no one would like it.

How great is my neighbor "R". It's alternate side street cleaning today. 

She moves 2 of my cars for me, now I'm watching her on ring, she's dragging my empty garbage cans back to my front yard for me. 

Gotta get her a gift card for Christmas...

Waiting on results for Herself's biopsy. Somehow, I had the idea it would be done by needle aspiration, but it wasn't. She has 10 stitches on her shoulder, and 6 high on one of her rear legs.  No cone of shame required, for once being a bit rotund is working in her favor, as she can't reach either spot to lick or bite at them.  It will be at least another 6 days before we get results, so it's going to be a long week.  She is still giving me the hump, I am the one that took her in there so she is not speaking to me.

 

Not done a bit of holiday hall decking this year. Simply not in the mood to drag all the stuff out and do  it. Maybe later.
