    When did it become commonplace to not give napkins with food?

    It's probably left up to the franchise owners. The Dunkin I worked for about 10 years ago had a policy of "some napkins" in each bag, so it depended on who was working the window. I currently get a small fistful each time from them and from the local McDonald's, which is fine because I have a...

    What's your favorite dinosaur?

    We watch a lot of Dinosaur Train in our house, so I have become quite fond of troodons. Favorite Jurassic Park dinosaur would be velociraptor, though.

    What does your garden look like?

    My gardens are full of grass and weeds that are taller than me. :p I need to get out there and pull that garbage out, as we've got all sorts of actual flowers that would be beautiful if you could see them (some kind of orange lilies right now, and assorted roses). If it storms today, that'll...

    What are you reading?

    Catch a Wave: The Rise, Fall & Redemption of the Beach Boys' Brian Wilson Husband buys me books for my birthday that I wouldn't buy for myself. :)

    How many of you are there?

    Under my married name, 18. One of them is my husband's cousin. I was the only one of me with my maiden name, though. I could check alternate spellings, but who has that kind of time?

    PICTURE POST II!

    I haven't posted here in a while... busy busy busy... Here is Ryker, at his first birthday party. He was not interested in a photo shoot, but this one at least shows his face, unlike the ones where he was trying to eat the balloons...

    What are you reading?

    College Accounting: A Contemporary Approach (Third Edition), Chapter 12 (out of 13). After slogging through two chapters of Payroll, the end is finally in sight... and then the exam.

    Keep it Clean

    My husband does a lot of the cleaning (dishes, floors, bathroom) and I do laundry, but mostly we don't clean much. I try to keep the baby toys corralled so nobody slips and breaks their neck, and lately the baby's been doing the dusting and sweeping - he's into everything so it just works out...

    Your Dream?

    I wanted to be a music producer. I started doing that in college, and ended up with just a "regular" music degree, then bounced around several different industries the last 10 years (pharmacy, food service, legal, retail, IT). My new "dream" is bookkeeping and accounting, and I'm taking a...

    Poopblic Transportation

    Considering how many poopy diapers I've changed today, that sounds quite economical.

    Tell me what to do

    The gooseberry/strawberry almost looks like a candle! Very pretty. We couldn't do layers because of the need to cool between layers - very tight sanitation rules about processing and sealing, and we do follow them. I added the site to my sig. Unfortunately, can't ship overseas, but do feel...

    what's your local weather?

    Heavy flurries. It's only just starting to stick, after about 4 hours, so I don't anticipate shoveling, except maybe to continue cleaning up the previous mess.

    Tell me what to do

    I'm working on new photos, but it's slow going. The spoon ones are from 3 years ago, more recently are the ones on the green background (my office wall) and the fluffy purple thing (a scarf my partner owns). We need a white background desperately. Hmm, maybe I need to rebrand Nana's Prune...

    what's your local weather?

    Crap. I think the snow has turned to sleet, judging by the noise it's making on the screens. This one might be 5 or 6 new inches of snow, plus some ice, but the forecast remains a moving target.

    what's your local weather?

    Post-blizzard, we are now getting more snow. Need to see if they plan on widening my road at all, or if I should cancel the rest of our appointments for the season. A bit tough getting the station wagon out.

    Tell me what to do

    Oh, but I do. I have a couple maintenance-type customers, adding/removing things for them, plus one that buys hosting from me. I've had more bad experiences than good with this, though, as everyone seems to think the internet (and therefore their website) is "free". I'll usually refer people to...

    Another question for Americans

    I have my SSN memorized, which happened around when I was 16 and had to apply for jobs and colleges. I also ended up memorizing my entire family's SSNs because I was the designated "filler-outer" of student aid forms for myself and my two sisters. Up til last year I was working at the IT...

    Tell me what to do

    I ended up sending a note declining the offer. They've kept it open for me to work there in the future, so that's nice. Oh, we have a website, which I coded 100% myself. I'd post it but that's against the board rules. It's called OmNomNom Jams & Jellies, though, if anyone's curious. Or likes...

    Tell me what to do

    I'm probably being ridiculous (I mean other than crowdsourcing this decision) but I am thoroughly unable to make this decision myself. My current contract is over (I work in IT), and I'm (probably) pulling down a salary til the end of the month with my outsourcing company. I have been...
