Where's Lise - she could tell us. Oh yeah, I bet she's sleeping.

Dreaming about PR and his sexy wattle...

OMG! is that site for real - lets say for a second I was even considering doing something that scary to my body I don't think I'd go to a guy with that kind of sense of humor......

**Nanci** · 07-10-2006, 10:45 AM

Yeah, I don't think cosmetic surgeons should have a sense of humor either!!

"Tears" as in ripping of the flesh, not as in weeping.

I had an aggravating, stupid miscommunication thing with the nurses on nights. Did they come to me to clear it up? NO, they complained about it to their boss in front of both the day and night shifts. By the time I found out this morning and cleared it up, I had a nurse from days sniping at me. argh. The truth is, they know who I am, I apologised for the miscommunication, and this one nurse just loves to take shots at the midwives. I get to be like KN, and act with professional curtousy, no matter what.

I am so tired. Going to bed. Perchance to dream, and if it's of PR, his neck will not be the focal point.

Back for a 3 hr staff meeting tonight. Where's the icon for "sighing"? Then OFF tomorrow, and meeting TE'ers betagirl, fujigirl, and songlady for lunch downtown! Wahoo!

Ah Lise - I guess you have to "act like a duck and let it roll off your back". That sucks, though.

**Nanci** · 07-10-2006, 11:51 AM

fish, for a minute I thought you meant Lise had to let my PR teasing roll off her back! But then I realized you meant her work situation- so I feel free to continue.

Well I'm in a snotty mood today. I was walking to the cafeteria for lunch with my friend, she was babbling on in her usual way. (Can you say Chatty Cathy?

) And for the first time in a while I just wanted to say "Shut the f*** up!"

I didn't. It would be mean. She does talk an awful lot though.

See, I have learned to put down my breakfast/lunch/snack/drink whenever I open this thread or both monitors would be annointed and I would have to shake out more crumbs from the keyboard! We have some funny girls here!

my boss (a male) is exactly the same way. he'll be gabbing along about something and then go off on wild tangents that ramble on to other wild tangents [for example, he was once telling me about this one policy that we have and then, about this high-level guy's opinion of it. next thing you know, he says, hey, that guy looks like eddie munster. then he starts taking about the munsters and next thing i know, he's talking about that doll that eddie munster used to carry around. that took about an hour]. I always make sure I pee before I ask him a question and I never ever go ask him something within an hour of my departure time.

Please keep it up Nanci (sorry Lise

)! Of course I was talking about the work issue!

I finally had a sec to look up a pic of PR - wattle wattle!

**bikerz** · 07-10-2006, 01:52 PM

Did you guys know that there is a word describing misheard song lyrics? It is mondegreen

Also related is another form of malapropism called eggcorns.

I was tempted to put this critical info in the Engrish thread, but then I thought, nah! TD all the way!

OK - back to the previous drift topics ...

Lise just needs to get Nanci to change her topics from wattle into wine!
