I have a friend from HS who has a couple. Why?

My hubby and I have never had a dog, but he's met a couple Corgis lately and seems sweet on them. Are they good dogs? (i.e. relatively calm, or do they need a fenced yard and 12 hours of exercise a day?)

They're good dogs. The vet I used to work for had 3 and they were very calm and friendly. At one point I asked the groomer that worked in the building what kind of dogs were the best (my family was considering getting a dog and I thought if anyone would know dog behavior, a groomer would.) She said she really liked Dr. Horn's Corgis, so they left her with a good impression.

Or the loony bin. I'm not picky.

I know, that's why you're with us! When's Michelle hauling her butt down to you? I keep thinking of you guys!

Oh. I don't have a cell phone, so I don't know texting. My boss wrote a note to me the other day and I thought it said ".... by emailing". Turns out the "y" was actually the number "4" (b4) and I was supposed to know that. The man's a 55 year old lawyer and can't write a complete word?

actually in the times of a 2400 baud modem, texting lingo was origionally BBS lingo... 22 year old technology n speach... Modems were so slow back then you waited about a second for every character to display on a text chat online. So we shortened everything.

I remember the olden days of when you had to put the handset of a phone into a funny box that made screechy noises in order to access a data place.

I just got out of a 4 hour meeting during which the supervisors actually admitted that they didnt know what they were talking about in front of all of us and then had a mini conference with each other in the same room to get on the same page while we all just kind of stared slack-jawed....
then as soon as I got to my desk I had a message from a super that theres an error on one of my cases and I need to call her right now...which I'm not doing...its my birthday and I will take my sweet time.

I spent all morning tearing wallpaper out of my son's room. The people who built this house loved wallpaper and put it in every room (over bare drywall.) 30 years later another family bought the house and just put up new wallpaper over the old-fashioned wallpaper.

I HATE wallpaper, so I've spent so much time since we bought this house slowly removing 2 layers of ugly wallpaper from the rooms and patching the holes to the drywall I create.

I'm only about halfway done.

I hope you gave her one of these.

Problem is, I'm the only one who knows how to fix the dang thing so I would be screwing myself...

Tomorrow or the next day. She's sleeping in the room with the ripped out wallpaper and patched walls.

When's she coming to see you? I hope she kidnaps you and brings you down here against your will.
