A Couple (or more) random things

1. Photos - I was going to post a bunch of cute photos, BUT, photobucket is not working right, and so I am going to have to do it from home later when I can get the correct frikin' size of photos. My kids are cute, but you don't want the images so damn big that you have to SCROLL to view each one!!


2. There is a cute way to do everything - For example - I understand that if you ride the bus and then have to walk a bit to get to your office, your high heels might be uncomfortable. You might even feel drawn to wear sneakers or some sort of flats. I get that. I even do that sometimes. (In fact, I just bought a very cute pair of slip on sneakers from Rocket Dog - Fabulous!) So, great, wear CUTE comfortable shoes.

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, DON'T WEAR YOUR UGLY-ASS "I WORKED IN THE GARDEN THIS WEEKEND" SNEAKERS WITH PANTY HOSE!!!!

This is a look that should not UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES be worn in public. It should only be worn in private if you are trying to fend off your horny husband. Thank you. This has been a service of the National Working Woman Get a Clue Foundation, sponsored by What Not To Wear

3. Stop spamming my email!!!! The "government entity" that I work for has the ability to leave spam messages on our work email. As in,

"Now is the time for your mammogram! That's right, Government Entity is sponsoring Mobile On-Site Mammography. The van will be here on X, X, X and X dates, and for those of you that work in our satellite locations, you can find the van on X, X, and X, but not on X date. Make your appointments now, and be sure to bring your insurance card. For questions call XXX-XXX-XXXX. Once again thats Mobile On-Site...."

Now, I have a couple of problems with this.
  • More than half our workforce is men

  • MANY of us are WAY too young for mammograms

  • We all have email

  • YOU CAN'T ERASE A MESSAGE WITHOUT LISTENING TO THE WHOLE THING!!!

We get at least two of these spam voice mails a week. What an OUTSTANDING use of government resources.

Thank you, those are my rants of the day. Just remember, people, we can all make a difference, even if it means our small contribution to the world is wearing matching clothing and not spamming voice mail. Peace be with you.

Shoot! My battery died just as I was entering my verification letters.

What did I say? Something about how I love Stacy and Clinton and that I'm always paranoid someone is filming secret footage of me when I leave the house. I should totally be on that show!

Also, I'd never heard of spam voice mail! How annoying!
