DYK Sheila, that post about one pair of glasses on your face and one on your head made me (heart) you even more than I already did.

DYK hooray for the kudos, Shelia! It is always great to know you are appreciated when you can't tell exactly how you're perceived. Congratulations!

DYK I hate to hear everyone having such a crappy time at work.

DYK there are things I really like about my job and things I hate about my job, but I will almost definitely take the other Joif it is offered to me and it looks like there is work there for Pete.

DYK I did a little calculating this morning and I am almost sure they will not have made a decision before the end of the month.

DYK was Ellie wearing one of your friend's headbands in the picture you posted of her recently? I think maybe the bow was purple.

DYK it made a big impression on me that I still remember it at least a day later --- super cute!

DYK Elizabeth, you will be working Sunday but not Monday?

DYK I am hoping to take Sunday off but I am planning to put in a full day Monday. The university is closed but I am so far behind. If there are not many people around on Monday, though, I might get totally caught up!

DYK Pete's job is not going well at all.

DYK that is one reason I would like to move --- very few options for him around here.

DYK and now I am all caught up and posting by myself.

DYK regarding Liz's dog, I din't know whether to laught or cry over this story.

DYK she has been putting a diaper on him every night at bedtime, although when I went in there this morning to wake her up, he had lost his diaper.

DYK and I feel terrible that he spends all his time either in his crate or on a leash, I really do... But we can't have him peeing all over the house!

DYk so anyway, we bought him a Washable Male Wrap: Designed to Meet the Needs of Male Dogs.

DYK and the instructions start with "Position the wrap so the microfiber pad covers your dog's masculinity."

DYK seriously?

DYK so I put the wrap on him and let him run around the house when I got home from work.

DYK yep, I peeked around the corner just in time to see him completing an attempt to pee on the couch. Of course I yelled NO and ran toward him, but...

DYK it simultaneously infuriated me and made me laugh because he had this very clear "WTF???" look on his face when he realized there was no actual pee on the couch.

DYK but then of course I found about seven places where it looks like he has peed on that couch. Good thing we'd already bought the super Nature's Miracle.

DYK not pleased.

DYK- Deb, how about a dog training class for your niece and the dog?

DYK - the Local pet store (Petco, Petsmart) may offer group classes that don't cost too much

DYK - And while you are there, you can ask about breaking him of the habit of peeing on everthing.

DYK-there has to be a spray or something that will help ward him off of peeing on things.

DYK- And on another note, my gf has two male black pugs.

dyk, yep, I'll be in on Sunday

dyk, complete opposite here - most people will be in on Monday since the staff gets holiday pay

dyk, I would get 2 floating holidays if I came in - but it's not worth it to me since I'd lose the peace & quiet that I'd get on Sunday
Past Races:
-Boston Run to Remember Half Marathon, 5/29/11 (2:35:11, no training!)
-Corporate Run, 3.5 miles 6/2/11 (36:38, 4 days after running the half!)
-BAA 10k, 6/26/11 (1:04:52, wanted to be under an hour...)
-Tavern to Tavern
