| Oh, haha, that would make more sense! Arts in UCC. I don't really want to do it, but couldn't make up my mind for anything else. I don't want to be a teacher though, which is what everyone thinks when I say Arts. We'll see what comes of it anyway. |

So I got to work and everything was off the floor in my office. Some of the stuff I had removed yesterday because I was told the cleaners were coming in to strip the floors. but EVERYTHING Was off the floor and either on my desk or in another room. Once I cleared that off and found my chair I thought things were back to normal. Then I went to use the bathroom and the garbage can was on the toilet. So i go to take it down and one of the sides of the garbage can fell off (it is metal) and sliced open 2 of my toes! Now I have to go and get a tetanus shot this afternoon so that I dont get an infection since it was a metal object in a bathroom that could be covered in all kinds of gross.
This is a fun day.
ps- toes HURT! |

| Kristy, maybe you'll have to trade in your ballet flats for some steel-toed boots. Maybe you can claim workman's comp! |

im wearing sandals :(
Flats would have prevented the injury.
Given that everything should be covered by the government, and if some odd reason I need a prescription, by my work medical plan, there shouldn't be anything for workman's comp to cover, BUT I should get kick ass steel toed boots anyways!

Sure! With a cute plaid lining! Or maybe you can invent a whole new genre of footwear: Steel toed ballet flats, for the fashion conscious woman who occasionally encounters occupational hazards. |

yesterday, it snowed in Munich.
SNOWED!!!
There was SNOW!
In September.
SEPTEMBER!!!
Of course it turned into rain after a few minutes but people instantly started talking about Christmas.
Which made me think about last year.
Which leads to my question:
is there any demand for another Christmas Exchange? Or maybe a REAL "Secret Santa" exchange this time?
And if so, who wants to take over from the scary elf (haw haw)? ;D |

| I was wondering this, myself. I'm always up for a boardie exchange. Maybe start a new thread to attract attention and guage interest. It seems the board has lost a lot of people since Facebook has taken over, but we might still be able to do it. We didn't do a spring exchange this year, did we? It's time! |

I am just sitting at work watching them block off streets and bustle around in the cold. It is EXTRA cold today. What happened to the nice October transition before winter :( |
