Note to self...

Note to self...

Never make a dental appointment for the morning if you plan on coming back to work. This is especially important if you work with a bunch of a-holes who would take a picture of you laughing during a lunch meeting after said appointment. I made the mistake of not covering my face as I laughed. I would only share this picture because number one, it is now posted in other places on the internet so the gig is up, and number two, I would have done the same thing to one of them. Enjoy.

How Does this Work?

So, this is apparently the new rage as I have many friends with Blogs now. I'm not really sure how to do it, but it's got to be easier than Facebook or MySpace. I've recently deleted both accounts, so I'm going to try this now. We don't really do much of anything exciting, but I'll try to keep things updated still.


Our most recent dilemma is how to spell Olivia's nickname. It originated after she was born, and I started calling her "Turkey" because it was near Thanksgiving. That morphed into "Turkey Toodle" which then became "Tookie" by accident. None of this makes sense, which is similar to my nickname not making any sense, but at any rate, we call her "Tookie Bird." The dilemma is that we don't know how to spell the shorter nickname we call her which is phonetically "Toook." Well, if you spell it like I want to "Took" that is really just took, like I took your book. But then it looks weird to spell it "Tuke" like Duke, although that's how we say it. This has only recently become a problem because I email Neil something about her, and I never know how to spell it. We rarely call her by her real name, which could be a problem come to think of it.
