5-20-01 Three important wedding lessons learned this weekend: 1. Beware when the groom's mother is wearing the same color as the bride. 2. Never, ever, ever chew on the feet of the Bride's Barbies. 3. When life hands you lemons add tequila, triple sec, and limes... Dibble - The movie Power of One? Have you read the book? 5-13-01 Wasn't there some rule about tequila after beer? Didn't we talk about it on Friday? Why, oh, why could I not remember said rule on Saturday then? Oh, it must have gotten lost in all the beer... I wonder if that guy ever got his keys back... P.S. Thanks Dan *sheepish and hiding* 5-9-01 Hmm... I *saw* flowers. Of course, I'm pretty sure I bought them. Yeah, they just don't make romantics like they used to. Steve, you do have access to gweep, right? 5-2-01 All Years' Resolution: Don't let it just be the bad news that brings you together. Be sure to keep in touch with good friends, especially those that you don't see very often, when times are good. *moment of silence* 4-25-01 Uh, sorry, can't stop, Evil Hand! Sometimes life's little surprises are very very good. I had a couple of those today. Of course, my company also caught on fire, so you win some, you lose some I suppose...:) 4-24-01 Uh, sorry, can't stop, Evil Hand! 4-21-01 I have a feeling this is turning into a pretty interesting weekend. Saw some people I haven't seen in a long long time last night... Oh, and I think that I'm definitely ready for summer, this week has gotten me ready to see lots more hot guys with no shirts.:) 4-17-01 So, Chia, do your monkeys just constantly mate? 4-14-01 ooooooh. I'm sure it isn't the tequila that is making me feel this, oh still drunk. I'm going back to bed... 4-11-01 I hope Easter feels like a real holiday! This weekend is so necessary! 4-7-01 Yippee! I have email again, still no gweep, but I don't think now is the time to ask MIS for favors:). Weird message from a dream I had last night: "If the rent is too high, get out of the building." Any thoughts? 4-4-01 AAARRRGGGHHH!!! Third straight day at work without email!!! Must...find...competetent...IT...people...withdrawl...bad... 3-31-01 Wow, when he was 15, Steve looked just like George McFly! 3-28-01 Keep takin' naps, still bein' tired. Did you know that the US on the whole is clinically sleep deprived? 3-24-01 Am I really old enough to be getting hit on by people my dad's age??? Oh, and I'm definitely partial to anything German, and anything not American (unless you buy a truck, then you have to get a big honkin' truck stamped all over with Made In the USA). 3-21-01 Even if spring completely eludes us, summer will be here soon, right? 3-17-01 Saw Enemy at the Gates last night. Good movie, makes you realize how glad you are not to have fought for the Russians. Also raises the question, if she can keep her make-up looking that perfect throughout one of the bloodiest battles ever, how am I having so much trouble with mine on regular sunshiny days? 3-14-01 Ooh. My brain is nice and toasty... Toasty like a nice little flame thrower... Look at the pretty bunnies.... 3-12-01 It's funny how when things work, I don't hate my job... 3-2-01 It's not the years, it's the moments. -CK 2-24-01 Rest assured, every Saturday this semester will be beautiful, except two weeks from now, that'll be rainy and crappy because I have it off...:) Somewhere, in another reality, there is another me doing something just a little bit different than what I'm doing. I wonder if she's happy? At least this means someone is taking care of my 'what ifs' with 'what is'... Oh, and I am happy. Spike: You're not friends. You'll never be friends. You'll be in love 'til it kills you both. You'll fight, and you'll shag, and you'll hate each other 'til it makes you quiver, but you'll never be friends. Real love isn't brains, children. It's blood. It's blood screaming inside you to work its will. I may be love's bitch, but at least I'm man enough to admit it. 12-11-00 Okay, if I hear one more gizm joke, EVER, it'll be too soon, thank you, Dan, Mike, Beardo, and John! Oh, and Dan, What's the OTHER reason water doesn't boil???:) 11-30-00 Two Words: Topless Karaoke "Damn, if I'd known it was going to be that kind of party... I'd have remembered the limes..." 11-23-00 Sleazy D- "Man, Love is not a game of horse shoes!" Shortly followed by: "It's not officially a relationship until they look like a milk add gone horribly wrong!" -Hank And we wonder why they can't get the girl??? 10-4-00 Sorry, still can't get on gweep. Email hsheldon@sepracor.com to reach me! How can you wait for Heaven? and Who has that much time? and How do you keep your feet on the ground, When you know you were born to fly? 10-1-00 If I'm missing for a while and you need to get in touch, your best bet is my work email during the week until I figure out what to do about this damn firewall. hsheldon@sepracor.com If anyone has any ideas about how I can get gweep at work let me know! It's killing me to not update this space! 9-14-00 Yippee! I got the _plates_ for _my_ new car today! Finally! Love the job! My own desk, my own cube, my own computer, who even cares that the free soda and snacks are probably just waiting for a Dilbert moment?!? If I'm missing for a while and you need to get in touch, your best bet is my work email during the week until I figure out what to do about this damn firewall. hsheldon@sepracor.com 9-7-00 Wow, time flies when you're trying to make up for blowing off months worth of work! Today's my last day and it is likely that it will drag long into the night, but it's over! So, my question is, is it bad that I woke up dreaming about a car dealer (one that I didn't buy a car from) being a bad waiter that wouldn't bring me Bass and kept trying to give me the dregs from cheap wine instead; I told him "NEVERMIND! I'll get my own damn drink!" I woke up as I was pulling the rum out of the cabinet...? 9-1-00 Woo Hoo!!! I got my car! I got My car! I GOT MY CAR! Okay, maybe she's burgundy and maybe the bank will own her for a long time before I do, but she's WONDERFUL!!! Okay, so any thoughts about why my boss is giving me more work when he knows that my last day is less than a week away? And why does he seem to think I need a sense of closure, closure will be seeing the door of this place shut behind me and knowing they can never suck me back in! 8-30-00 Oooooh!!! One more day till the new car! It's so pretty... And, because I want everyone to be jealous, I'll be starting my new job nice and relaxed (partly because it's 1:10 closer to where I live) because of the hour that I will be spending with a professional masseuse the day before. The boy did good for my B-day:) Hey, congratulations Dani! 8-29-00 Oooooh!!! Two more days till the new car! It's so pretty... Wow, new car, new job, everything is so neat! Now, does anyone remember anything about chemistry...? 8-23-00 _STILL_ no car yet...:( Well, here I go, my boss is going to pop when I give him my notice I think... He didn't pop, but I think that was because shock was holding him together. Who knew it would be this hard to quit a job that you hate? 8-21-00 _STILL_ no car yet...:( YIPPEE!!! No more studying for GREs!!! I'm done, I'm done, I'm done!!!:) 8-14-00 Well, no car yet...:( There's something wrong with this whole 'life' equation. There's no point in trying to make sense of it all, everytime you come close they just up and change the rules. Isn't there a song about God with a sick sense of humor? Dani, contact Trisha about a job... 8-11-00 Okay, so now I've lost the car that I was supposed to buy! Oh well, it probably blew up 5 miles from the lot, right? It must have not been meant to be:) Maybe when I come back from DC there will be a shiny new car waiting for me, actually on deposit this time! Dani, contact Trisha about a job... 8-10-00 So, how many times in one week can the topic of people coming out come up at work before it just seems strange? Dawn, lots of people need to be tied to chairs and hit with bricks to make them understand things, even bilboards are pretty subtle clues:) I don't think anyone should be this attached to a car. Maybe I should have some sort of funeral, you know, closure. Wanted: 1 Good home for very cute little audi. Would run better with clutch. Cheap to good home...:( 8-8-00 "...Love bites! Love bleeds! It's bringing me to my knees..." -Def who?!?!? Just how dangerous is it to drive without a clutch? 8-7-00 Gears, we don't need no stinking gears! Needed: 1 Car. Working motor and the ability to go both forward and back a plus. Please send qualified applicants to above address. 8-2-00 (oops, I forgot to post yesterday!) "And Heaven isn't too far away... Closer to it every day..." -Warrant So, I still want someone to fall over when I kiss them. How do you find a little romance in this world again? 7-31-00 Someone just switched the clocks, right? It can't _Possibly_ be July, it's nearly February isn't it? Jeff, you're a guy, you can do theater beyond when you're old and grey and out of the service, for men, I think they call it distinguished... 7-28-00 Jess, just 'talk dirty to me', baby! I want to get tix to see them at Mohegan Sun!:) Okay, I'm sorry, but while we're on pet peeves and proof reading I just have to mention that I believe what was meant was "a lot" not "alot". For the record, this is the ONLY grammatical/spelling rule I remember from 17 years of school.:) Death cannot stop true love, all it can do is delay it for a little while... 7-27-00 "She doesn't want the kind of love she can live with, she wants the kind of love she can't..... live without..." I won't be your lifetime girlfriend I won't be 'just one of the guys' I won't be your momma's favorite I refuse to be the last in line. 7-25-00 So what is with guys thinking they'll get somewhere by hitting on you in traffic? "'cause underwear and sneakers are just hot.hot.hot." 7-21-00 Dawn, I have a mission for you, since everythings on the web somwhere, right? There is a Christina Aguilera(?) response to Slim Shady -"Will the Real Slim Shady Please Shut Up?" - You're mission, if you choose to accept it, is to find that MP3. This message will self destruct... Mission for the rest of you: Does anyone have that damn Little Black Back Pack song on CD? Going on week five with it in my head... ...and again I see my yesterday's in front of me... -The one and only GB 7-20-00 Dibble, write scottadams@aol.com...:) Man, that wife carrying business takes a special kind of wife! 7-19-00 Hypothetical Questions of The Day: Is there a class that can teach people to become less stubborn or less proud? Can I make enough to live on tending bar? Did Dawn really say that? Can you ignore co-workers if you run into them outside the office? 7-18-00 Yaaayyy!!! All my rabbits are done! (For now at least!) 7-17-00 This weekend offered further proof that tequila will keep your stomach very happy (even if it sends your head to a secluded island with savages and no passport)! So, Dan, does Dawn know this? Other things proven this weekend: Don't EVER agree to work on Sunday, ESPECIALLY if all day Sat. will revolve around tequila! 7-14-00 I think dawn is currently engaged in something deeper... Hey, Steve, I think that was amongst the first poems that you sent me! None lately though, I am sad...:( Yep, this still goes...: So, it sounds like I missed something while I was gone... Marybeth? If you like Pina Coladas, and getting caught in the rain... I'm glad someone found me a blender for the weekend:) 7-13-00 Re: The CD conversation: yeah, I had to go through that admitting that I'd bought some, THEN I had to admit that I'd burned some! I'm still trying to get past that humiliation! - Dana, you're forgetting how much play the chicks get on _real_ radio though:) So why is an 18 year old girl with her parents out of town snapping pix with Hillary Clinton? 7-11-00 Philosophical question: How many times must you fix the same part on your car before it stays fixed? - If anyone knows this, PLEASE tell me so that I may begin to regain at least a little of my sanity! So, it sounds like I missed something while I was gone... Marybeth? 7-10-00 Rednecks and beer... sunshine... bikinis... VERY athletic men... margaritas... cute and VERY friendly law enforcement... beaches the color and consistency of flour... water at 86 degrees and as clear as glass... and one of the best grown up nights of my life... ...Now tell me, WHAT THE HELL AM I DOING BACK HERE AT WORK?!?!? So, Jeff, shall we start again tomorrow? 6-29-00 Was it at least a good CD? So, here I sit in my comftiest pants after 2hrs of sleep just counting the minutes until I'm in Florida... Something like 810 minutes... I also woke up to find people that I don't know in my house... So, Reaper, you whipped it good last night, when did you go home? Well, Jeff, your little motivational speech worked, but what's this? Am I to be replaced by Justin?!?! 6-27-00 Dani, do you want me to drop your resume? Being a Management major, your job options here are probably MUCH better than mine!:) Hey, Trisha has a pool, AND is unemployed, I bet she'd enjoy hearing from someone since she doesn't do the email thing very often and is pretty out of the loop. Someone get this girl on gweep! 6-26-00 So, this weekend I won a brunch for 4 with our company president. Who should I take? Justin, sadly yes... Take the strawberry challenge! Daquiris with 151 and real strawberrys or from the TGIFriday's mix...hmm.. tough choice, I'll think I'll have to try some more. 6-23-00 I've been bitten by the frog (or do you lick frogs, I don't remember) I was in pain all by myself last night! Okay, I missed some things according to Marybeth's list. There's some way to make money? I still need to quit my job... Trip to P-town? Be careful about that, you may just get hit on by Bette Midler... 6-22-00 Ah ha! I have the secret now! He is a red tree frog! I don't think you want my help, remember, I failed at the changing sides thing:) Hey, maybe if I'd had that book _before_... Justin, I'm frightened. I think this means my parents are cool?!? 6-21-00 The frog is bad. Because of the frog I will be in pain for days. The frog is evil... BUT the frog can make me look good:) -Yep, this still stands... So, Marybeth, you do everything your parents tell you, right? 6-20-00 The frog is bad. Because of the frog I will be in pain for days. The frog is evil... BUT the frog can make me look good:) And silence contagious in moments like these Consume me and strengthen my will to appease The passion that sparked me one terrible night And shocked and persuaded my soul to ignite -If anyone knows what this is _AND_ where I first saw it, you know me too well:) 6-19-00 WHERE IS THE NUTRIMAT/COMPUTER INTERFACE?!?!?!?! 6-15-00 Just what I needed today, got up late (power went out), missed my exit off the pike, got followed to and around work by a madman, couldn't digest the plates in my rearview, cops can't help... I need a beer. Got beer... Shopped... bought clothes... A little better. Oooooh! I finally found sandals yesterday too! 6-14-00 "Dan, do you have a gut... or is that just your stomach hair?" I don't think I can really follow that with anything other than, this party is long overdue! "The whole panoply of the universe has been neatly expressed to them as things to (a)mate with, (b)eat, (c)run away from, and (d) rocks." -Terry Pratchet on the animal mind Marybeth, I've been in a box forgetting to ask questions:) To make sure that I don't forget again, I should start wit what everyone else is starting with: Party, did someone say party? What party?:) (Dani, I think that's because Mr. May is FAR hotter than Mr. June:)) So, do I have this right? The government just up and kidnapped Jeff for 12 days? Seth says hi! "Will you go out with Kat?" "Not if we were the last two people on earth and there were no sheep... There aren't any sheep are there?" -10 Things I Hate About You Slit my wrists... commute more... slit my wrists... commute more... slit my wrists... So, I've realized that although I'm going to have to live without it, when you live alone, your TV can quickly become your, roommate, confident, fashion consultant, and many other things. Okay, maybe being forced to read for a few months will be good for me:) When people honk, yell or wave on the highway, sometimes they're your friends, it isn't JUST because you're driving like an asshole! -Sorry, Dana, next time I'll try to pay more attention:) Yes, Chia, people do read these things:) Marybeth, do you really need to be motivated now? This Web stuff is silly, but aparently, I like yams! Hey, Dawn, that's one special address! (Special being the operative word, I think) "Woo Hoo! I'm Straight!" -Really, Marybeth, was there any doubt? Shop Keeper: "So, did you have better luck with the bike than your buddy?" Brian: "Yeah, I cleared the ramp, he couldn't make it through that second bounce!" -I think this guy will think twice about renting mopeds to old and grey frat boys on the Vineyard. So, Dawn, didn't anyone ever tell you that phones are just instruments of pure evil? This is just the beginning of a very long road... Marybeth, it's okay, give the nice lady the bucket, it's empty:) When things get really bad, just remember, you could always be a shoe picker! "Okay, I'll be over in a minute, now where the _Fuck_ are my pants?!?" Come on, who wouldn't want 'Lick the gorilla' for a catch phrase? Wanted: Good home for 2 Dave Mathews Tix. The show is on July 8th at Foxboro. Let me know if you're interested. Okay, now that I've been to a Sox game, some people should come down and drink beer and go to the Speedbowl and get rowdie with me! Nothing like Connecticut red-necks! Hey, Marybeth, I owe you a bucket this week. Okay, so now I know why my cell battery was dead this morning when I didn't even think my phone was on last night! Fenway and Hallmark should join together to make greeting cards: "Happy Birthday Valerie (something) and Best of luck on your upcoming kidney transplant with your brother!" Dan M. knows everything about baseball: "So, this is the difference between on base and batting average and why they can't have all pinch hitters, and they should definately hire a midget..." So, Should I see how many fights I can start at the Sox game tonight by wearing my Yankees hat?:) Movie review for The Big Kahuna - Good movie a little deep at times, and typical Kevin Spacey, but really, Larry needed to beat the crap out of Bob... "Well at least you guys didn't have the dream with that freaky guy with the cheese, What was up with that?!?!" "The 80's party generation has entered the nineties and gone from cocaine to rogaine." Okay, just picture it... 500 dancing penguins... The coolest thing that I saw this weekend that wasn't people graduating: The original Dungeons & Dragons cartoon is back on Saturday morning cartoons! On a real network too! Congratulations everyone that got out of WPI this weekend! I hope y'all stomped on the seal and got good and drunk! "Whatever occurs from love is always beyond good and evil" -Nietzsche
