Oh yeah. That used to happen to us at times, too. Or sometimes people we don't know would leave messages on our machine, even though they don't realize they have the wrong number. They leave a message anyway.

...when you try to log on to the Decades Messageboards, and get that pesky "Server Must be Busy" message.  ???

Ah, so I guess I'm not the only one who got that pesky message last night. I was getting ready to post in a topic, but after I hit the Post button, that message came up. I couldn't even log out it was so screwy. So I woke up at about 3:30 this morning to see if anything changed, still no such luck. Then I went back to bed. But this afternoon, everything seemed just fine.

I did that as I was walking to work last week. Someone papped their horn and I thought they were papping at me. I did that technique where I turned a wave into a scratching the back of the head motion - I wonder if I fooled anybody.  ;D

:P >:(...people don't wear deodorant.?


We used to have this small weight/aerobic workout room at the office.  Anyway, a foreign guy started working out there with his girlfriend, and neither of them would ever wash their gym clothes.  They put on the same stinky stuff every day, and it was getting very RANK.  >:(

I mean it was so bad it was like being punched in the nose when they came into the room.  Made me wonder if someone could actually die from a bad smell.  ???

Well, I went upstairs to the laser printer and made this big sign that said "I am barely Breathing..." asking the (anonymous) persons who were stinking up the place to take a bath and wash their clothes.

That fixed it.  Nobody had to be "confronted" and the stink went away.  Everyone at work was wondering who posted those signs, but I never told.  ;D

I work all day, I'm tired, just want to fall on the couch and take my shoes off, and the dog is giving me that "I didn't get in the trash" look!!  >:(

sthe librarians should look into this :P

I agree. One time during my first marriage, we were moving. I didn't have too many books at the time only about a bagful. My husband was carrying the bag out to the car when the bag broke and all my books went flying. He didn't think that I needed them so he tossed them. I was LIVID!!!!! Some of those books were out of print!  >:(  He did learn not to touch my stuff!

My boss or a co worker takes something off my desk without telling me and I go crazy looking for it, thinking I lost it.

...your favorite TV programs get interrupted/preempted by a Special Report?

I know I mentioned this on the thread on the old board, but I hate it when regularly scheduled programming is interrupted by something that can't wait until the regular news. On the other hand, if there was something very important going on in the world, I can understand it.

I can relate, LB. My second-cousin had a baby a year ago, and so we sent a copy of the "Goodnight Moon" book to their house as a gift for the baby (Jake), and we still, to this day, have not had a phone call or thankyou note. :\'(

Sorry, Howard....I'd much rather deal with that situation, knowing I can jump in a cool shower and I'm instantly comfy again.  For me, that's better than it being 20 degrees and it taking me forever to warm up....especially my feet :-\\

Heck, hubby's cousin got married 4 years ago and we spent about $100 on a gift for the "happy couple" and never got squat!!!


I gave my cousin and her new husband $500 for their wedding.  Figured it would help them start out, especially since they have a 3-year old kid.  I know they got the dough because I have the cancelled check.

No thank you note.  No email.  No phone call.

The next time she gets married, I know what she'll get from me.  A big fat friggin' donut.  Zero, nada, zilch, zippo!   >:(

Neo! Hiya!  I finally got my account up. But anyway, I hate it when you fall asleep planning to get back up within the hour, but you find yourself sleeping for about 4 hours. It's like where'd the time go?

How about when it doesn't run at all?! I just had to retrieve the password on my Internet account..

I don't fancy ever doing that again!

Yeah, well yesterday (and this morning) it was running slow in the library; it took forever to log out of here at one point.

Same here.  My husband and I gave his cousin and her new husband a big fat check at their wedding last October.  We have yet to get a thank you note.  I kind of gave up expecting one awhile ago.

I have been waiting almost 2 months for my disability half-fare card to come in the mail.I had to keep on repeating to call Mondays at The MTA to ask if my card was already mailed out and they said May 3rd and it's already May 17th.Shouldn't it had come last week? ??? >:(  This was very fustrating for me! >:( Has anyone ever waited for their half fare card longer than 2-4 weeks? ???



Howard

Ho ho. I can relate to that, Howard. Best advice I can give you is don't get worked up over them. They probably like the situation they are in and getting badgered by a mate is only going to turn them against you.

There's an easy way to avoid that.

Just hold your breath until you pass out, then your autonomic nervous system will take care of resuming the breathing1.  :P
