Me too. I tried to do a visual relaxation thing on my tablet yesterday afternoon I think it was, or maybe it was Monday. Anyway, it didn't work out. Between the dogs and the kids and the power going off I wasn't successful in relaxing. But it really does work. A lot of the time I fall asleep in the middle of it.
I can fall asleep in the middle of just about anything. I am assuming this may kill me.
Sign me up for both, too! I'm learning to be less driven about work. It's nearly impossible to accomplish any significant change around here. I'm a hater of statu quo, which means I've spent a ton of time butting my head against walls. I am getting out of the head-butting business and getting in the status quo business. Resistance is futile...I will be assimilated.

My worst one was having an east bound trucker start yelling over the CB to me that I had an east bound pickup moving fast. Um, why are you telling me? I'm west bound. He said yes Ma'am, he's on your side of the highway..... Holy carp....
Sorry so late in checking in.Yankee Doodle is sick..He ate a wall..We're not sure if he's sick because he ate it or if he ate it because he was sick..He chewed 5 holes into the drywall and you can see the inside boards.He chewed all the way through.I've been at the vet for hours.She had an emergency.I'm rescheduled for 6:15...He just keeps throwing up.I know he's dehydrated....More to follow....I need to catch up on the FDA thing..It kills me the government is leaning towards making pot legal and at the same time vilifying tobacco users..At least when I'm using tobacco my mind is clear...Same can't be said for pot or alcohol...I hurt no one but myself...Not having a good day....AT ALL...
Oh noes Stretchy! If it helps even a teeny bit, Jake ate a wall when he was little. He survived a belly full of drywall. Though he almost didn't survive me when I saw the hole in the kitchen wall. 
Yep, I can drywall, tile, hang wallpaper, put down floors and paint. I can not shelf paper. Not even close.

Shrek ate a 2 foot hole in the side of the couch and a pair of underwear, as in swallowed them whole.
I've just spent the past 45 minutes trying to figure out the scrapbooking program I have so I could dress up my avatar. It won't work like that. I need something like photoshop. I used to have paint shop pro but I couldn't tell you where it is now. Darn it.
Good afternoon/evening Posse! I survived another Wednesday! 
Yup, this is my problem too. The status quo pizzes me off - mostly the 3-4 co-workers that don't want to do diddly squat. One guy today took a 28 minute break (instead of 10 min), came back and spent the next 20 min on a personal phone call (on his cell phone, so it wasn't work). Another guy was seen sitting down eating Fritos about 10 minutes after he came back from a 2 hour lunch (his regular scheduled time) and ignoring requests that he help with passport customers. I really need to learn how to ignore this stuff, because it's been this way the whole time I've worked there and nothing any of us has done or said has changed it one bit.Sign me up for both, too!

We almost had 2 dead cats when our landlord in VA was putting new drywall in our apartment. For some reason, the cats thought it was just for them to claw up, and made a mess out of about a 10 ft section down a hallway.Oh noes Stretchy!
