  1. SM! I love Burn Notice! Our family has watched all the episodes, and can't wait for the new season! We also like the BBC's Torchwood, but can't find it anymore. Did they cancel it? Anyone know?

  2. I never get to watch any of those shows since I work late. I'm even missing Ghost Hunters these days :(

  3. Arrrrgh, another errand to run and a trip to the post office.

  4. Ack, GD! No Ghost Hunters? I'm assuming you don't have Tivo or a VCR, but do you have a friend who could record it for you, and then you could watch it at the friend's house? Just an idea.

  5. okay, I'm back from the job interview and things went good, I think. Now I wait again. I got a card in the mail today from Metsa, and it will be put on the mirror in a few minutes. MIL is taking all of us out to lunch to Olive Garden so I will check back in later.

  6. Hmmmmm, the only Ghost Hunters friend I have is XBF and I have no intention of hanging out with him and watching it. I have a VCR but I can't get it to record anymore - it used to work!

  7. Everything still crossed for you, Karen, including George's paws!

  8. Hi everyone! Today is an immobile day for me :( I was running into the room and managed to slam the corner of the table right into my knee. I already have arthritis in my knees (at 21 years old too, ugh) so it hurts to walk as it is, but now due to hitting it I have a giant cut and its ballooned and swollen up and hurts to walk. I put an ice pack on it and am taking it easy for the day.

  9. Ow! Sorry to hear that, Gini. Yeowch.

    Maybe Taco will kiss it better :)

  10. Thanks Kilroy! How are you doing today?

    Posted 3 years ago by gini #

  11. I'm OK, not working as hard as I should be :) I'd rather hang out here.

    Posted 3 years ago by Kilroy #

  12. I know how that can be. I'm trying to work online a bit to try to pass the time, I don't like having to be stuck in the house.

  13. Hello all. I took my car to be serviced this morning and they just called me to tell me I have to replace two tires on my car plus labor to put them on and do an alignment to the tune or around $600 when they are done. The darn tires cost $230 each! That is what I get for owning a Toyota Camry SE V6. Special sized tires. The tune-up is going to cost me another $500 so I will have spent around $1000 on my car! Ouch!!!!!! I will be paying for this into April of next year. I need to sell this car before it takes me to the cleaners or I just need to win that darn lotto!

    Ouch Gini! Take care of yourself. Good luck Karen with your interview. How are you Kilroy?

  14. Oh no SMM! That is terrible! What a ton of money to spend on a car, and right after the holidays in this economy too? I am sorry to hear that :(

    Posted 3 years ago by gini #

  15. Yeah, Gini, that is what scares me..spending that kind of money in this bad economy but I have to do it as I need the car. I have thought about downsizing to a used car that doesn't require so much maitenance but have to wait till mid to late of next year as I am still under water on my car loan.

  16. Don't believe that Torchwood was cancelled but it was the end of the season so it will be a couple of months before it starts again. Burn Notice should be starting again in January with the new season.

  17. Oh, that is funny, Deb! And somehow just not natural.....

  18. With his paws crossed, George won't be able to attack you, so maybe we can keep them crossed all the time? Thanks, Kilroy for getting him to do that for me!
    Gini, I'm sorry about your knee, arthritis sucks, but to have a cut and bump definitely makes it worse. Hope it won't be so bad for too long.
    SMM - $500 just for a tune-up? What do they use - gold in the oil? Make them show you the tires they take off and to show you why they recommend the new ones before you leave - these places just love to make money that way.

  19. Thank you Karen, it drives me crazy too because I had so many errands I wanted to run today but I just can't reasonably do them. I really need to grocery shop, too

    Posted 3 years ago by gini #

  20. Gini, I wish I was in your area - I'd get that shopping done for you. Do you have someone who can help?

    Posted 3 years ago by KarenCentennial #

  21. Karen, the tune-up is for 30k where they check everything and I mean everything. I will ask to see the tires. I did price them at several places and they were not much cheaper (maybe $30).

    Posted 3 years ago by SylMiaFelixsMomma #

  22. Thanks Karen. There really isn't anyone around right now and Mike won't be home until 10:30 tonight which is too late to shop. I will have to put it off until tomorrow; hopefully I'll feel a bit better then.
