So far.....so good.

Took Callie to the vet this evening..No no, I'm fine. The bleeding should stop soon I'm told.
It was $45 to just "walk" in the door. Gotta love it.

But anyway, she got her rabies shot and a complimentary pedicure, yup that's what the invoice said folks!

She is 10 lbs....perfect ears....perfect teeth...just all around PERFECT! I must say, I totally agree.

Damn Waitress !!

I went to dinner with Mom, just to the local diner.
I ordered pastrami on rye, but I think the waitress heard me wrong.
I got tongue!

Work.....

Today was one of the all time highlights for me. Professionally? Hell no! Comically? Is that a word really? No matter.

For those of you who don't know, I work in a grocery store. I'm responsible for the pricing in the computers and maintaining the shelf tags and display signs. Tomorrow starts our annual "Can Can" sale. Its a BIGGIE, trust me.

So the grocery dept. manager gives me a list of signs he will need tomorrow. Tells me that I can get all the pricing out of the sales flyer. Really? Duh! Thanks for that Danny. So I make all the signs on his list except for one item - cause I can't find it anywhere in the flyer. I call him on the in store intercom and question him about it. He is certain "its in there-keep looking" -- No its NOT, I ask him where he is in the store and I will bring the flyer to him and he can "show me"

He's in the back stock room, talking to the store manager, loading empty pallets onto a trailer for return. Now mind you, I was hand picked by the store manager to work with him cause he heard so much good about me and the few times I did fill in at the store he liked me. Well really? What's not to like? Anyways.....

Picture this:

I'm in the back stock room with the sales flyer in hand as I approach both Danny and the store manager Pat. Pat is probably pushing mid to late 60's.....Irish....hot headed....and everyone fears him. Not me, he could be my Dad. Why? Go back a few lines. We are one in the same!

I tell Danny, as I hand him the flyer, "find the item and price in the flyer & I'll buy you lunch"
With that he throws an empty pallet to the side and it hits a puddle of water.....SPLASH.... I get hit with water. Well, I hope it was water anyway! NO one else gets splashed, just ME! Danny laughs. Pat laughs. I laugh.

Then Danny says "sorry....but hey- when was the last time you got "that wet" ??

My response? "Hmmm? Let me think? "that wet? And with a MAN? Gotta be close to 20 or 25 years Danny!"

With that comment, Pat started turning beat red with laughter....just about gasping for air.....and walking around in a circle.....mumbling something about "he has pencils to sharpen somewhere.....ANYWHERE BUT HERE" and walks away!

Yup, a good day at the office!
