“I am around another 20 minutes then I am outta here”
Mr. Kensingtonian, have a great Thanksgiving! And a Happy Thanksgiving to everyone else as well!
I don’t know what time the rest of you are heading out, but I have theater tix tonight, so I volunteered to work the late shift today so my colleagues can take off early. I’ll probably be turning off the CFLs in the OT (lest Snappy punish me) around 5:30ish if anyone is still around to chat.
Ok… I gotta go back to bed. I feel like absolute crap
🙁
I hope you all have a great Turkey Day!
“And when I, for the 3rd time, told her that it was NOT POSSIBLE…she burst into tears and ran away.”
Fortunately, there’s no crying in PR!
THE NIGHT BEFORE THE NEWS CONFERENCE
Twas the night before the news conference
And running through my head,
Are visions of jubliation,
Or prospects of utter dread.
Will the media come out en mass,
Or fail to even appear?
Will I toast in proud triumph?
Or drown my sorrows in my beer?
Will the mayor keep his word
And show up for a few remarks?
Or send some stooge and his regrets,
Thus feeding me to the sharks?
Will the client bask in glory,
And give me a pat on the back?
Or put all the blame on my shoulders,
And call me a no good flak?
Ah, such is the life in the land of PR,
Where results are never assured.
Where sleepless nights are frequent,
And praise is rarely heard.
Even if you hit a home run, and
Your efforts are appreciated greatly,
In a few short weeks, the client will ask,
Hey, what have you done for me lately?
“It’s on Hoyt between Fulton and Schermerhorn.”
“Wait, make that Fulton and Livingston.”
Thanks…that’s not so bad. As long as I don’t have to ride on Flatbush. I’ll turn on Atlantic and look for parking. I’ll bring my big ass shopping cart.
I can’t wait to go. I’m giddy with excitement!!!
Am I going to have to replace my nitelight? CFL’s will not likely work against the monster in my closet.

Does anyone want to recommend appropriate wine for Thanksgiving dinner?

Snappy, she’s better today, actually went for a short walk this morning, but not great; I’m thrilled to know she’s in great health but for the arthritis, but I’m anxious to find a way to manage the arthritis pain.
herk, lol to your 1:14. Nice to see you posting prodigiously today.
Cobble, thanks.
Dave, yeah, what’s the Government gonna do? Mandate people buy new, CFL-friendly chandeliers? Ban holiday window candles? And how ugly would they look? Some fixtures are just not meant for CFLs, and I say this as someone who tries to be very enviro-friendly.
haha snappy!
