Random thoughts thread

during one of my internships, I spent a lot of time holed up in a room working on Captivate videos. There was a note that said to save often, but I didn't do that as often as I should have. On more than one occasion, I lost several hours of work. Had IT come in. He couldn't figure it out either. Bad sign when the IT person is having no luck Googling the issue.

Sat back down to get back to work and was swinging my feet like normal. Lightbulb goes off in my head. Sure enough, I had been intermittently kicking the internet cord and it was cutting out the connection and apparently caused me to lose my work. Derp.

In my previous job, I would slouch slightly in my chair and stick my legs straight out. Can't tell you how many times I would kick the plug out for my light underneath my overhead bin.

Our random thoughts thread girls...small in stature, but large in heart.

Six feet tall in my bare feet. Revel in my "grossness".

By grossness, is that referring back to the height, or your bare feet? cuz I can deal with height, but if you got janky feet, it's OFF.

:pwink:
 
Women who are taller than me do not make me happy. Short women are where its at.

Fortuantely I don't have this problem. If I date a woman taller than me than I'll be dating a WNBA player/volleyball attacker.
 
5'2.25 here. Husband is 6'0. And, I've taken to wearing flat shoes, and Kalso Earth shoes (because of a pinched nerve issue) where heel is slightly lower than the front of your foot. So, I scoot around in my midgetness and make the husband look like a giant.

At work I go to lunch everyday with a guy who is 6'5. I always feel like the waiter is contemplating getting a booster seat for me.
 
I'm super thankful for dudes that walk around with their collars popped, because it reminds me to check mine and make sure it's down so I don't look like a giant ******.

I can only assume you do this to make your husband seem shorter in comparison
 
This spring I somehow ended up in a picture with the Governor, and we were surrounded by people who were all well over 6'0. So, the Guv and I look like super-duper-midgets in a forest of freakish giants. And I have a look of sheer panic on my face because someone in the group (who had too many glasses of wine) calls the Guv by his first name and then lays into him about how bad the winter was and why doesn't he fix it.

Not one of my better pictures for a multitude of reasons...
 
It drives me crazy when people aren't prepared. I am monitoring a disaster recovery test and I see the same people be clueless every single time. My stuff is all staged on the live system so when a DR test happens all my work is already done. These same people bumble about every time and act like this is the first DR they have ever done.

I know I have done more than the average employee but it didn't take me more than 3-4 DR tests to start working on a better way to do my part.
 
How do all these damn flies get into the house?

I can understand a couple once in while when going in or out the door, but I've already killed 5 this morning and another one is buzzing me while I'm CF-ing.

Going to Filling Station in Davenport for lunch. Love their mega-huge-ginormous tenderloin!

Anyone ever teach you the "sweet slap"? Or maybe you need to make yourself a glass fly-catcher...

Last year I swear I went to work one morning and came home to about 20 flies all hanging out on the window over the kitchen sink.
 
I was in the cry room watching a wedding and I noticed that in between the two panels of glass were 4-6 dead flies....

I wondered how long they've been there since the building is about 13yrs old.
