Mornin' to all the Imponderablers.
Cats and mothers in law.
I'll be back in a bit with comments. Right now, just need some coffee.

Hello, Imponderable-ers!
Our receptionist is out today, so I drew the lucky straw and am riding the front desk for most of today. I will not have a lot (if any) time to chat today. Know I will miss all of you today!
If this thread gets too long, and I am not around, go ahead and start another one...just use the same title Male and Female Imponderables-- followed by a song title.
Thanks!

I know the terrible affliction of the front desk. But since I get alot of crap done no one really questions me about posting for fifteen minutes or so. Get some funny looks from folks occasionally. Thats what they get for bein' nosy.
See, it ain't polite to read over someones shoulder for a reason
Bet the'd seen a side of me they never knew existed.

It's just that there is no time to post...between my work and the work of the front desk, I don't have much free time. On the plus side, the day is going by like wildfire! Heck, on a normal day, it would only be about 10:00...right now, it's already 12:30!
See you all when I can!

BUMP!!!
Must be a pretty busy day for everyone. Think this is the quietest the board has been since I've been here.
Think I'll strip down and run around in the very empty thread. If anyone hears singing coming from the jacuzzi, its just me. Might wanna knock first.
When everyone surfaces:
When was the last time you recieved/sent flowers? Mine was at the end of last year. Sent Ms. Questionable a cute little arrangement of daisies in a big smiley face mug. Kinda turned me away from sending flowers. It was a bad time in her office, (Social worker's assistant at that time). Damn FTD forgot the card I sent and wouldn't tell her who sent them, (paid cash). Big uproar in the office. Law enforcement was called. I guess she got a death threat from some parents.
Next time I buy flowers they will be hand delivered.
No room for error.

aaaaaaaaaaah back from training and all nice and relaxed:) At least I got lots of my boxes unpacked ( sadly I have many more boxes to unpack)
Mother in laws- not crazy about mine as she is somewhat distant , can and has held grudges for any thing she sees as a slight,and also very critical of my sweet husband, but she's not around much( lives about 6 hours away by car) so it works fine...if she were here, I doubt it would go so well.
My husband, on the other hand, got a mother in law that thinks he can do no wrong. She's always fussing over him, making his favorite meals, telling me I should wait on him more, etc...If we had a fight, there's no way I'd run home to mother. She'd be on his side

Wow, talk about a gesture of kindness backfiring!
The last time I received flowers was two months ago. Got thirteen beautiful white roses from a friend. I get flowers from students of mine sometimes. Chocolates too :) Teaching adults is fun. No angst, just gifts!
I tend to give flowers to my Mum or my female friends more than to guys. Cliche, I know, but true.

Last time I received flowers was on my birthday, so little over a month ago.
Now, last time I received flowers from a guy....dusts off the calendar...maybe 1992? Haven't received flowers too many times. 
NV: that's quite the tale of backfiring.
I once tried to send my mom flowers for mother's day (all she ever wants for mother's day is a Gardenia corsage) and they never showed up. Called flower company and they were like "uh, we forgot." 
Thankfully my mom and I have a good relationship, but could you imagine the ramifications if we didn't?

hmmm desktop are you sure you like teaching adults?? I usually need several trips and large shopping bags to take home all the loot my sweet little munchkins bring me each year:) Mind you large portions of it are somewhat odd or poorly homemade, but I love every piece and have a large windowsill display of stuff they've made me:)
as for flowers my husband's big on randomly showing up with flowers instead of buying them on standard occasions and I like that better:)
