Since we're comparing notes...I have a 1500 square foot historic house in the city.  My mortgage is about $1250/month.  City taxes suck. 

Sorry pb.  Carmax is stoopid.  (But if you have one near you, kids, buy a car there anyway because that will help me pay for my wedding.)

I did get a Jersey offer but it was 95% travel.  Not too conducive to family life.

I just found Arrested Development, Seasons 1, 2 AND 3 behind my TV.  I don't know how they got there. Either I was REALLY drunk when I got them as a gift, or one of my two last roommates left them.  Only season 2 is opened.

Maybe I'll watch them, and THEN find out who they belong to...

They're yours.  If they had belonged to any of your previous roommates, consider it a portion of the rent they still owe you.

It's such a great feeling when you bump into somebody you haven't seen in months and the first thing they say is "You look terrific!"  :-D

Having a coworker drag me down to the gym on our lunch breaks is the best thing I've ever done.  8-)

You go to the gym in drag??  You're a brave one! I only go to friendly clubs.

Perhaps it's so he can get into Curves.  Afterall it worked for Kip and Henry when they wanted to stay at the Susan B.

Season 1 of that show is actually next up on my Netflix queue.   I can't wait.  It's been probably 20 years since I've seen any of it.  8-)

Albino snake.

Except I don't think he ever called it albino -- I just filled that in later.

What am I going to do in a women's gym? Nothing for me to look at. No fun at all.

But if you go to a women's gym in an upscale neighbourhood they have super hot male trainers for all the little desperate housewives.

Personally I preferred to work out with the lesbian semi-pro soccer player.  Less distraction and no temptation to play weak little girl and end up having a crappy workout.  She knew when I wasn't working hard enough.

No ... she was built like a guy ... a spanxing would have HURT.  She would just give me that look that only women can truly master ... usually only after having children (although some are naturals) ... that says "I know you're not working up to your potential.  You're not giving it your all.  You're only cheating yourself."  Then I'd feel guilty.

Sorry :( ... My "writer" Mimi is out ... she's the one that embellishes all the stories into interesting (albeit far fetched) ones.

I think I'm going to request that I get an office of my own. I can't keep sharing it with this guy. He's lawful and I'm chaotic so we're having all kinds of personality clashes. Everything has to be in perfect order following set in stone procedures and no tolerance for deviation from the rules. Total 'letter of the law' type guy. I'm more of a 'fuck it, I know what this person meant, I'll just do it and get it done' type person and don't really care to follow rules that are outdated and serve no practical purpose. Did I do it how it's 'supposed' to be done? No. Is the end result correct and done in a fraction of the time it would have taken otherwise? Yes.

So shut up.  :x

I'm chaotic too (but chaotic/ good i like to think), my office mate is an idiot, and i suspect evil. But we started to get along fine since i keep pointing out he's an idiot every time he says/does something stupid (witch is pretty much every time he opens his mouth), and i think he's bored with that and leaves me alone.
Maybe you should try that, sometimes it works.

Idiot/evil workmates are the worst kind.

I'm pretty much Chaotic Good these days. I can't stand rules and I simply need my freedom, but I won't use my freedom to hurt other people. I really like being helpful actually. This puts me at odds with several co-workers who can only be classified as Lawful Stupid.

I think I'm Chaotic Neutral but I've been leaning more to Good as I get older (not for the sake of maturity, but failure to cover my tracks sufficiently).
