If Meg Ryan ever needs someone to play her daughter in a movie:
Meg


Mini-Meg

Well I think Avril Lavigne looks a bunch like her. So she should play her daughter (if she ever needs someone to play a daughter in a movie.)

I was a good girl all morning! Instead of cruising the net, I cleared the clutter off my desk and dusted. And I went for a mile and 1/2 mile walk on my lunch hour to keep in shape for the next hike. You just gotta get a buddy to walk with! It really keeps you motivated to go every day! HMMMMM, you could make pepsi stoves! Just gather your favorite red bull or dr. pepper, or the other real thing- pepsi, and cut em at 22 mm and 34mm from the bottom- poke holes with a push pin around the rim, and either glue 'em at home, or bring some to work for tomorrow. I've made several- and everyone is impressed. except the boss..... just don't tell him....

or make anal Excel sheets on how much your hiking stuff weighs- that oughta keep ya busy for a week

or make fireplace logs out of the excess newspaper your co-workers read

or make lightweight campshoes out of the styrofoam packing stuff

or make a solar-oven out of the cardboard boxes and excess foam peanuts for packing

I'm never bored- our company has so much recycled stuff to play with

LOL at accountability. That's funny. Unfortunately I couldn't get away with building camp gear at my desk, or take off for long walks.
And since I've already done spreadsheets (my favorite thing) about the weight of my gear, it leaves me to ponitificating over why Meg Ryan looks so much like Avril Lavigne. And since my dream job is to be a casting agent, I find it interesting.

Well Pix, you could always send long rambling emails to the boys of TT. That's sometimes entertaining. :p

I used to with ww, but he fell off the face of the earth. Last I talked to him he said he was totally swamped after returning from vacation.
Hey no wonder I'm bored!
I miss my old job. I was always going to meetings. Talking to people, change of scenery. This hiding out at my desk for the entire day thing is sucky. NO social interaction, same old same old.

hey, I like the fact that Melissa Ethridge is even joining the pop singers in trying to act. Lipstick Lesbians all look alike. But she ain't no lipstick lesbian.

Anyone bored at work can do research for the Vegas trip! :)

We kind of need dates for the trip in order to get pricing. Also approx how many people are coming.

well... you, me, turtle? pinkbublz...

Prolly not Doug if it's a weekend cuz of his winter work schedule...

Anyone else?

I'm thinking sometime in January?

That's it?!? Wow. We need more people to come. Maybe we should start a thread on the Trips page.

sounds like you just volunteered!

(I just posted it today, so maybe peeps haven't seen it yet)

We'll bump the thread in the morning. I'm surprised more people aren't interested! "It's not backpacking. I won't go if we don't backpack" etc. Party poopers. However there are some great areas near there. LeAnn and her husband and leaving this Saturday to go camping down there in Canyonlands and such.

lol,

btw - there's a slim, but not non-existent chance I could make yalls little Vegas whoop-de-doo. I'm sure it'd be fun.

I'll keep my eyes peeled as the trip gets planned.

Hey Ewker is it too late to donate for your bike-a-thon thingy?

yeah, it was last weekend. I made my goal. Thanks for asking. I got to meet someone who has MS and it really gets to you.

Oh bummer. I'm too slow. I'm glad you met your goal though.
My friend has MS. It's a scary disease.

Geez! I leave for just a little while and Matt goes and changes every!

Thot I was in the wrong place for a while.

Been interviewing for jobs for next fall. that and had a slew of tests. Now on to studying/researching stock option compensation issues for a term paper. Anyone have any input on that?

Sorry, don't know anything about investing money. Just spending it. LOL!
pixaxe killer

Isn't about spending money pixaxe. It's about how companies show the expense of giving their top brass stock options in lieu of salary.
mtnmom2
5:01:41 PM
10/08/04

That's not what I meant exactly.

I meant that stock options are a type of investment. And I was joking that I don't know about investing money, just spending it.

Oh nevermind. I won't try to be funny anymore.

My boss is traveling again this week and all I have to do is reading because I'm so new to the job. It's getting really dull. I cannot focus on Six Sigma methodologies. Bleh!
At least I can look out the window...

Yeah it sucks. The authors are really full of themselves too.

Yesterday I watched some really stupid construction guys try to figure out how to get dirt from a dumptruck to the sidewalk using a loader. That was entertaining. Now they are pretty much done. It's too cloudy/foggy today to see most of my view. Sure wish I had a meeting or something.... At least it's 2:00. 3 hours to go.
