Thursday evening Nest party

    Yawn... I can tell that I was gone for work for 6 work days. I am behind! A lot of stuff I had to wait until Jan 1 to do when our new FY started. I spent today ordering items for the gift shop. Normally that is a fun part of my job, but today it felt like a burden. I did find a new publisher to order from, so that is what I am doing right now, figuring out what books I want to order. I think some of you need to take a trip to my work place, I'm ordering a bunch of gardening, preserving/canning, herbal type books.

    I keep wondering where you work.....can I ask?  and can you answer?  haha

    GRSP, has anyone pointed out that your nest join date is 5/5/05?

    Just noticed that.  Weird.

    Fun, isn't it?  And I totally have a hyper-awareness of dates and numbers, so it's pleasing to me.   ;)

    Chymes, that sounds like a nice dinner.  How does XN prepare sweet potatoes?

    I need jeans, shoes and bras.  So, I'm not doing any of it.

    I'm reading case studies for my career counseling course.  Kind of interesting.  Class starts tomorrow, and our prof signs every email with "Peace."  Curious to meet her.

    We went to Yesterdog once.  I was overwhelmed by the atmosphere and underwhelmed by the food.  I really wanted to like it... but, no.

    I've only ever had Yesterdog for free.  At my former job, some people adored it and would have it catered for lunch.  

    That's the problem, I believe. YD technically does takeout and catering, but the quality isn't as good IMO because the chili quickly makes the buns all soggy. You need to order and eat in-house for maximum freshness and deliciousness.

    I do not like evening Nest chats!  You all lure me in, and now it's passed my self-assigned 9:00 computer curfew.  At 9:00, I must begin winding down my brain so that I can get a good night's sleep on weeknights.

    (I am the lamest person ever.)

    Good night!

    I need to do this!!!  You are not lame, you are smart. :)  Good night!

    I will send you a PM, I also have a question about you. Big Smile

  • I wish I Vicki's bra's fit me but they don't. I've been getting mine from Frederick's of Hollywood. I've had a good run of luck with them. I also lucked out recently at Target with jeans.

    Same way he does regular potatoes: Cook in the microwave (usually because other stuff is in the oven) with holes poked in them. [I think that is all he does for cooking. I'm not 100% sure though.] Then, cut open in quarters, mash them up a bit with a fork, and add butter/black pepper. Eat.

  • Night y'all!  Hope you all sleep blissfully.

  • That's how I do the sweet potatoes, too.  Lately I've been roasting them.  Mmm.

    GVSU, I really wanna get out there.  Maybe there will be a spring wildflower walk?  I've started my winter hibernation already.

    Amachuta, great b-day.  I'm a little more than a week older than you.  Henry's b-day is like yours: 10/18/08.  We missed 4/5/06 by 3 hours with Willa.

    Kasa, I know you're already gone, but that's a smart strategy.  Good night.

    If you don't have class, we have a very cool spring wildflower hike in May. It is in an area that is normally closed to the public.

  • Fingers crossed about that.

    You might try again, if you haven't recently.

    Five years ago, VS bras didn't fit me at all.  But I tried them again not long ago now they fit.  I haven't changed, so I assume that they've changed their sizing a bit.
