Boy am I in a pissy mood. Stupid forms to fill out really annoy me apparently.
I had to fill out a form to get my phone and directory information transferred when I switch offices for my new job. One of the things they wanted to know was the "wall jack ID for the ethernet port". Now how am I supposed to know that before I'm in the new office? So, I put "I don't know" on the form and they said unless I provide the ID they're canceling the request. Eff you jerks! I gave you the office number you should have some database to look it up DIAF!
Next I had to fill out forms for a hearing exam I need to take to work in our lab. They put "IMPORTANT" on the line asking for the facility name and address where I'm schedule to take the exam. Well they never provided me a facility name just an address. How the hell am I supposed to know this "IMPORTANT" info? So, I got pissy on the medical history form.
"Have you now or have you ever had the follow:"
"Dizziness?" - "yes, when I spin in circles"
"Ringing or buzzing in ears?" - "yes, very seldom and only briefly experience ringing ears"
"Have you heard loud, constant noise or music within the last 14 hours?" - "yes, I listen to music in the car" (they never said the music had to be loud)
"Was your hearing previously tested?" - "yes, in grade school"
That's the passive aggressive equivalent of writing "suck it" on the form.

Wait, you're moving offices within the same company, right? Why do you need to go through all that crap again, don't they already have it? (there's probably a 'necessary' reason for this that I'm unaware of, but I don't see why crap like that can't be transferable...whatevs)

The only one I see working as an in is the "wait don't drink that". Though the "who was it?" question is a problem. Best you could probably do is "he ran off when he noticed I saw him and was coming over but I had to stop you from drinking that and now he's gone". Then just go right into "here let me get you another drink".

What's your favorite thing to do on a snow day?
I love curling up with hot chocolate, a good book and a warm quilt:)

Well as a kid if I got to stay home I'd always watch the price is right and hope they got to play plinko that time. Plinko has to be the coolest game on the price is right.
Fun fact: a frat at my college had their own "plinko" type board setup in their back yard. It was labeled "Drinko". At the bottom of the board were all sorts of drinks or things like keg stands. Brilliant!

They are brilliant in achieving their goal at least. Of course the goal is to get women drunk. Well...at least that's step 1.

Sounds like a plan. But in my case it would lead to everyone getting drunk. One of the reasons I gave that plan of action up; besides leaning over the porcelain bowl.

It is cold here. Will warm up, but will get snow then rain. Typical December. We probably won't have snow for Christmas. Considering so many people will travel on Christmas, that is a good thing.

Hey MsA:
Just visited See's Candies website and have to agree about their chocolate. They looked awfully good. I will probably go with peanut M&M's. I swear I am addicted to them.
