Hello. This is dentrassi's DH now. I don't have a pseudonym here, so I guess you can call me anything clean. Maybe Mr. Wizard?

Henna-wheeze, I understand that several of you have wasted (cough) I mean conveyed your good wishes for my recent job search here in a Michigan economy that went to **** in 1981 and still hasn't come back.

Although I don't yet have anything in writing , I did sneak a peek at an order for an office nameplate , so it must be close enough to official that I can break into the single malt scotch with impunity.

Therefore, please accept my deep thanks for all your good wishes : which are cheerfully accepted and returned in kind.

And furthermore, , , and !

Hmmmm. You really like those smilies, doncha Mr. Wizard. I keep telling you to move to Ottawa, but you don't listen to me. A government town is always teaming with jobs. Intelligence not required.
I'm still afraid to congratulate you personally, but if you've got a name plate on order, then you must be a shoo-in. I assume you looked at the name on the order form. It was YOUR name, wasn't it?

Heh, heh...I think we will call you Mr. Smiley instead!

You are welcome for the good job vibes and I'm keeping my fingers crossed that you get the official news soon!

Does anyone else get stomach aches for 2 days after they over eat? My stomache hurts, not in a nauseous way but I feel like my stomach muscles got stretched out or something This is the second time this has occurred not sure what it is.

Sounds like you've stretched your stomach, Mauvais. It's a gentle reminder... STOP WHEN YOU'RE FULL!!!
Yes, I've had that happen. And I'm usually STARVING the next day, as if my stomach is saying, "Hey! You put a heck of a lot in here yesterday! Pack it in again!"
