I Like Leaving Work On Time...

Long story short, JM and I work together a couple of days a week. I like to leave right on time. JM is prone to leave 15 minutes or so after the bell has rung. So in a creative attempt to leave on time, here is our IM conversation: (IM names have been changed to protect the innocent)

weatherly (5:14:18 PM): this is GOD, that's right, I have taken over Weatherly's IM. I am here to tell you that it is MY will that you leave work this evening on time at 5:30pm. I am giving you a 16 minute warning. Obey my commands.

johnmark (5:15:36 PM): wow, that is special

weatherly(5:15:45 PM): what is?

weatherly (5:20:40 PM): This is GOD. You have 10 minutes.

johnmark (5:20:58 PM): blasphemy is a sin

weatherly (5:21:28 PM): what are you talking about...? and what is special?

johnmark is mobile (5:22:58 PM)

weatherly (5:27:55 PM): This is GOD. You have 3 minutes.

Exit time 5:33pm- not to shabby :)

Person of the Week

Ok so I hate to be so impersonal...I promise a real post is coming soon! In the mean time this video made me tear up in a good way.

At It Again...

So the obsession with freecycle.org continues! Today I am picking up some photography items for a friend and tonight JM and I are going to an apartment to view and then decide on a wingback recliner...should be interesting!

As for the bookshelf we picked up the other night, it is getting a makeover this weekend so I will post before and after pictures. But for the new chair, does anyone have a clue as to where to learn how to reupholster furniture? I figure with JM's mechanical mind and my creative mind that somehow we could accomplish it, but I am also thinking we could in be way over our heads! So that is all for today...off to clean the house (ok, apartment) and then keeping on with the job search.

Don't forget about the giveaways listed below!
