The longest thread about nothing....
| Thu, 01-27-2005 - 10:22pm |
Now, don't confuse this with random thoughts... there does not have to be any thought involved in this one... just curious how long this thread can get... just talking about nothing...
Although knowing us.. it will turn to men, love, sex, cowboys, embroidery (heheh T) and more...
Who wants to talk about nothing? It's all men think about. :-)

It's obvious when you put it all together but not if you don't. Taking them all separately, it just looked like she was under the weather but now we can see that the weather has improved! :o)
Well, actually, the dairy and tummy trouble really did have nothing to do with being pregnant. It was my insulin meds.
And when taken into account that Sean was gone for a while and we used BC you could see how that was not my first thought!! Hehe.
Next time, someone clue me in please! Hahaha

No fantasies about anyone should be shared on this thread. We don't want to get a post deleted when we're so close to 5000! :o)
Next time, I'll say - Jennie go take a test! :o)
Anne: "I'm running to the store, anyone need anything?"
Joanna: "Oh, well, would you mind picking me up a bottle of Pepsi? A nice cold Pepsi sounds soo good right now."
Anne and Douglas gasp!
In unison they cry "What?!?! Who's the father young lady!"

Speaking of "supersmart" Someone talk me down from hurting my coworker. I know its just insecurity because he's an idiot (and idiot is NOT a term I use loosely, I had several mentally impaired cousins, and I don't like that term. but he IS) so he feels the need to put down others to make himself feel better. I know that.
But he should NOT feel threatened by me. He's a grown man, in his 40s, with a job he got thru 20+ years of experience in this industry. I'm a TEMP. I'm NOT taking his job. Im not getting him fired, when "big wigs" are in the room, I dont generally even speak, no matter how bruised the inside of my mouth gets from the biting!
BUT, I AM in this office 32 hours a week, so when they're just chit-chatting I'm sorry I DO occasionally dare to OPEN MY MOUTH.
And yes when I KNOW he's giving the maintainance guys misinformation because he's too lazy to look it up in the computer, I DO speak up. Im sorry, but why should they all suffer because he's an idiot?
So then came the "Teresa's never wrong" theory that he deems a bad thing and tries to "catch me" making an error.
Hello? I don't LIKE him. I don't Talk if I don't KNOW Im right, and I learned early in my life how to act like "I'm just guessing" when I KNOW Im right, or how to carefully Lead others to the Right conclusion, so they dont know i knew along what the answer was.
So now today Im apparently being referred to as "Ken Jenkins" who apparently was the guy who won a lot on Jeopardy?
Seriously Im getting dirty looks and backhanded comments from him now for 40 minutes, and this is why:
"How far is it to drive to Ohio from here?"
He answered "10 or 12 hours" at the same time that I answered "Depends, what part of Ohio?"
* I was being asked the question, because the questioner wanted me to Mapquest it, which I do for him fairly often.
Dale, the idiot, answered, "well, its 9 hours to Indianapolis, so. . "
and Im sorry, I wasn't thinking, I should have let it go, but I busted out with "How Slow do you DRIVE?!?!"
and he explained in his patient tone, "I've driven to Indianapolis each year for like, 3 years."
well, whoopdeefrickingdo. Its like, well under 7 hours to Indy. I dont care if he goes there every weekend, thats just how far it is! Add to that, in the past 3 years I've driven thru it, to it, around it, by it, etc, Numerous times. Whats more its 9 hours from here to the Ohio border on I-70, and to get there you have to go THRU Indy, and then 2 hours more. Hmm. 7 hours?
So I repeated, "How slow do you Drive??"
and the other guy laughs and is like, well, mapquest it.
and Dale is like, yea, KEN, map it.
So I do.
and I said "Mapquest says 7 hours and 24 minutes, which is a bit longer then I thought, but I probably drive faster then they recommend."
And Dale is like, "What? Yea, well...How many times do you STOP?"
and I said..."well, I'd stop for gas this side of St Louis....and that's it."
and he doesnt believe me that I would go for 4 hours in the car without stopping. HEllo?!?! Do I not SIT IN THIS CHAIR 8 HOURS a DAY?
Aargh.
20 minutes later he brings the whole thing back up that HE stops in Columbia (2 hours away) for breakfast. Then 2 hours AFTER that stops in St Louis for lunch, then stops half way between St Louis and Indy.
So Im wrong because he has a bladder the size of a thimble? And why havent we dropped the subject yet?
I've made it to Louisville in 8 hours with my roomie who makes me stop every 2 hours, too.
THEN, it gets better, cause he asks how often *I* stop, and I said "well, you have to stop for gas about every 4 hours. So, usually if Im on a long road trip I would make sure to get out and walk around for a bit each time I stopped, just so that I didnt get too stiff in the car. (Course, if I was just going to Indy I probably wouldnt..I'd just get gas and go. But I didnt point that out to him. A "long road trip" to a girl from New England who had to deliver cattle to states with, well, cattle, is 15 hours.)
and he takes offense to THAT! Why? "You DO? You have to stop every 4 hours? You sure?"
What is he, 6? "well, yea, unless you have an extraordinarily large gas tank, or drive a diesel or something, you'd pretty much have to stop every 4 hours for gas."
"well, what if I drove an electric car?" in this like, totally snide if-he-was-your-15-year-old-you'd-smack-his-mouth voice.
at which point I calmly admitted he was right and I was wrong, while my entire being was Screaming "that would be the "or something" in my statement, you jackass!"
Phew. Ok.
I feel better, thank you.
