Looks like it may be a slow comments day as Blogrolling is down. I always visit from my own blogroll. But fixing that now and adding them all to my faves.

Anyways, sorry I haven't been around in a little while, things get kind of crazy. Hope all is well with your family and momma.

Hugs, Love and Prayers.

free food?

I don't understand automatic flushing toilets. No wonder so many people are slackers. I mean...gosh, if you can't flush the toilet on your own...what can we expect?

uh-oh... it appears you and my honey are on the same wave-length today. (should i be jealous? teehee... no, i should *not*. instead, i'm grateful the bad-ish day is being "had" by someone(s) other than me!) still... ya can't go wrong with free food, can ya? (unless, of course, it's really crappy free food, in which case, you most assuredly can...) : )

Except for wiping up the toilet, there are a lot of reports due on the rest of this stuff.

Could tomorrows bathroom minute possibly cover the concept of "courtesy flush" and how to employ such a technique in a public bathroom (single or multi-stalled) to prevent innocent bystanders from losing the partially digested food they found at a meeting upstairs?

They just remodeled the bathrooms at our Super*Center and included the automatic toilets. The associates in the store were sitting down and standing up just to hear the toilets flush. No kidding. My SIL is a department manager at said Super*Center, and she related this story to me. She has yet to admit if she was among the toilet flushers or not. It's a small town, and there isn't much entertainment.

I hate automatic flush toilets, because they accidentally go off sometimes while you're still using them. If I wanted a bidet, I'd get a bidet in my own house, thankyouverymuch.

Busy day for you there?

And where's this alleged free food?

Posted by: Judy | February 7, 2006 3:08 PM

ROFL. Busy Mom, you are a genius!

LOL! I kind of miss all the free food mooching opportunities now that I work at a small company. I get excited on Krispy Kreme days, though! (when our sales team makes a home run sale)

Bad day at work?

I'm afraid of those sensor flush toilets. It's hard to get out of the stall quickly enough to escape bird flu. It's time to sit in the car with the house phone and call yourself.

The big can of Dumb-ass...was it the industrial sized one purchased at Costco? Someone should call a HazMat team. Oh, wait, they're all upstairs already scavaging the free food.

Free food! That sounds like some of our council people in our little town up nort' they go to any and all events to get free grub and are the first in line to grab it too.
