May. 9th, 2006 10:05 pmMy Threadless order came in today! *glee* I think I'll wear one to work on Friday.
Work was... busy. But that was good since the day practically flew by. Tomorrow will be more the same I suspect. On the plus side, I have Tominated one of my coworkers. W00t!
Speaking of the job, anyone in the Albany area looking for a job? We have... erm... a few openings and the boss is interviewing now. It's a decent place to work and the job is stress-free. Ad here.
Today's my mom's birthday, so on the way home I stopped and picked up a cake and some flowers. This is the first year I've actually had money to take my mom to dinner and get her a cake and stuff. She was really happy :)
I don't know if I'm going to Tulip Fest this year. I want to, but![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
queenmaab is going elsewhere and other people are occupied. *pout* Is anyone free?! They Might Be Giants, OK Go, The Churchills, ZOX! For freeee!
lilorphanannie: How's Sunday May 28th looking for you? Will e-mail later.
The characters of Battlestar Galatica, if they were to show up on The Simpsons. (link viakhaosworks)
Bush wants fight over CIA choice. (That's the headline, I kid you not.) President hopes debate over Hayden's role in warrantless wiretaps will hurt Democrats, but some Republicans who usually back White House are balking
I am supportive of our troops overseas, really I am. Because they don't really have a choice about being they're and they're just doing their job. Duty. Whatever. But everytime I hear about something like this: The U.S. military said Sunday that the soldiers died while scouring remote Afghan mountains along the Pakistan border for al-Qaida and Taliban militants. The military said Friday's crash -- the deadliest for U.S. forces in Afghanistan in a year -- was not caused by hostile fire. I just have to shake my head. Can our soldiers please stop dying accidentally? From bad weather, or friendly fire, or mechanical failure. Please?
