In keeping with Twink's wonderful idea to get the board motivated...
Say one good thing and one bad thing that's happened to you in the past 24 hours...in 3rd person.
Let's see how rusty my English is...
Good: Nicole made a fabulous dinner last night -- Chicken Cordon Bleu and rosemary potatoes!
Bad: Nicole really wishes puppy hadn't broken out of her cage last night and ate DH's birthday gift...
Re: Third Person Tuesday
Good: Lauren go a new cell phone!! Lauren thinks the Verizon store is WAY overpriced and the Best Buy is the way to go for phones.
Bad: Lauren is mad that there is a mouse in the house!
Good: Desiree is happy that her stats class is done with their exam. I swear I get just as nervous as they do, even though I'm not taking it. I want them to do well.
Bad: Desiree is very tired and fears she may snooze on her hour and a half break in between traveling between campuses.
Erin is happy that she had a productive day and is going to pig out and watch The Biggest Loser with some friends tonight! Fun times.
Erin is sad that DH got rejected from another job yesterday that he thought he had in the bag ... boo! Erin hopes he gets a job really soon b/c this unemploymen thing is getting old!
Erin - I'm so sorry baout your husband's job prospect. It is such a horrible time to be looking for a job. I know how I feel (just being employed PT at this point) and its horrendous. Stack on top of that how men feel about their jobs as their identity, and their ability to provide. Hope he finds something soon!
Jamie is happy that she got to leave work early today.
Jamie is sad that she had to go to the doctor today and has a mild infection. Jamie is also sad that Jayson has class until 9 tonight.
Tania is really liking her new job that she started yesterday.
Too bad the new job is only part time, so she has to keep her crappy old part time job until she goes full time at the new job.

Liz just had scooters-and for those of you who are unaware of what scooters is, it is Liz's favorite desert place.
Bad: Liz wants to rant about work, but is holding back due to fear of people from work being on here and seeing it...
Erin - I'm so sorry to hear this. My DH was laid off in November, and he just finally got a job about two weeks ago. Let's just say we had a not so fun 10 months or so in our house! I will keep my fingers crossed that something happens soon.
Good: Jen is drinking a glass of wine and is thinking about going to bed early.
Bad: Jen had a pretty bad day at the client today because none of our planned projects ended up working out. On top of that, she lightly backed into a BMW this morning as she was leaving her garage but is EXTREMELY thankful that there was no damage (and yes, she left a note).
Liz, I am jealous! Monday night was the only night that DH and I could go to Scooters this week, but it was closed.
