Did you hear that they caught a 750 pound shark in Florida? Yeah. Probably the number one reason I don't do oceans. If it can catch a swordfish, it can catch my big ass.

I saw online where someone cleaned out a plastic squeeze ketchup bottle and put pancake mix in it to make "no mess" pancakes. Brilliant idea!

I may look into recycling. I've really just been to lazy to do it but I saw a few articles that will blow your freaking mind. Just one aluminum can can save so much energy. Man, as many Dr. Peppers as the family goes through. I could probably power my friggin house for a month with the energy saved from recycling the DP cans that come through my house in a month. I've read that one can recycled can save enough energy to power a TV anywhere from 2-4 hours.

One of the ladies I work with is about 50 or so and could easily be a virgin. She is bitter at the world and has nothing to do with men. She believes almost every conspiracy theory and believes that the world is out to get her. Apparently her condo sits in a valley and with all the rain, got flooded and is costing her a ton of money. (She thinks Bush did it because Obama is a people person and would not have sent a flood to her.) She is crazy. So, understandably, we were all shocked when a bouquet of flowers showed up for her. The ladies flocked to her cubicle and wanted to know who they were from, what the card said, if she had been seeing someone, what color dye she is using on her hair..... you name it. Her only response was "they are probably from someone who feels sorry for me. I'm not reading the card. I need money not flowers."
WTF???? If I already didn't feel bad enough for her, I do now. :(
She will be on my hump day list tomorrow for sure.

It really is sad when people are so bitter at the whole world. These are also the people who really can't appreciate ANYTHING that people try to help them with. If she got money it would be "Why'd it take you so long to get it to me!" For some people you really can't help them, they like feeling crappy all the time.
I saw the ketchup bottle thing too... weirds me out a little. I really hope every drop of ketchup would be cleaned out of there before making the pancakes. yuck.
My sister lives by the credo: Happiness is a Choice. I choose happiness.
She's one of the happiest, most stable people you could ever know. I have to think she's got "it" right.
Sorry to hear you have a "Badluck SchlepRock" at work.(Remember that character on the Flintstones - the one with a permanent grey cloud overhead?) It can't be easy for anyone
WOW,thats nuts and sad that the lady could not even smile for flowers. I bet she just wanted to make a show and hid the card away for later to open and be happy about. At lest thats what I'm going to tell myself.
I really easy way to bypass all the ketchup bottle , go to the dollar store and buy a clean 50 cent squeeze bottle and put your own pancake mix in it. You can also do the same for muffin mix and it only cost 50 cents and the price of the mix. I could not believe it when they came out with the same thing and charged 3 bucks extra for it here.
We don't get TLC here because my dad says its a waste of money and he already has to put up with my trueblood addiction, I know he likes trueblood too, I see him watching. He blames my aunt for getting me hooked and says I can pay the satlight bill myself if i want to add more channels no one is going to watch but me. : (
If you have a spare moment in time see my blog for my latest post "I AM GOING TO GIVE YOU A FREE WEBSITE"
Damn! What an old bitty!
You can get plastic condiment bottles at the Wal Mart or any other place that sells cooking supplies...they are really cheap...like a dollar and some odd change each. I don't know...for me...I hate ketchup and couldn't ever bring myself to put pancake batter into a bottle that once held ketchup, even if it had been thoroughly cleaned out. But yeah, that is a good idea.
Hmm...recycling...maybe one day I will do that when I get my own house, get a garbage disposal, and get a trash compactor.
I bet Obama sent her the flowers.
Shade and Sweetwater,

I'll happily take the flowers from her. Who doesn't need money? I always have time to stop and smell the flowers tho!
In our county, they pick up recycling every two weeks. We have no choice but to pay for it. People actually complain because they HAVE to pay for it. You know how much they charge us for this earth saving service? Two dollars a month. And people are bitching. I prefer to pay the money that put all that crap in our truck once and month and drive it to the place.

In Oregon bottles and cans are with 5 cents each! It's a pain in the butt to turn them in sometimes, but nice when you get $15 back!
I am SOOOOO going to try the ketchup-bottle-turned-into-pancakebatter-distributor thingy !!!!
