She is? Ewww... that's gotta suck. 'Specially for Gabber.

Woot! I just noticed that I'm now a "Scroller Extraordinaire"! I'm so proud.

that I added this post just to up my count. lol

Hey, did you know that I really DID have an Auntie Flo?

She used to send me two bucks in a card every birthday.

She lived with her sister when they were both living. Auntie Maude and Auntie Flo.

I've never heard the "Aunt Flo" euphemism before.

Oh trust me, I have no complaints where Sara is concerned.

I got "Aunt Flo" from South Park. Plus I think I heard it on some sitcom. "Ellen" in fact, I seem to recall...

Since we seem to like to share Major Events in our lives... although it's hard to compete with "my apartment burned down"-

I quit my current job today (planned), and this evening will sign on to my new employer. Still on this little island. I'm going from "staff programmer" to "one-man IT Department". So that's exciting.

What's not so exciting is - it sounds like I'm about to inherit a world of crap. But, that's the computer-biz. At least it's another Linux shop (although there ARE Windows boxes to take care of too, dammit).

AND - my wife has gone back to the states, most likely permanently.

AND - since that's the case, I gotta move into "bachelor's quarters" - basically a studio-apartment with no kitchen. And that's okay too - lawn-care is not my baliwick.

I just wish I had a few days off to enjoy all these changes. Ahwell - if I did, then things might be SUSPICIOUSLY good...

your wife leaving is good? whatevah floats ya

Yeah. It's not a happy/shiny story, so I won't bother ya with it. It's not so much a "good thing" as a "relief".
