My blog is four years old today.

I really should've stopped writing six months in.

You know how one of the big bonuses to switching over to the New Blogger is the absence of wacky server errors? I *never* got one of those until tonight. Coincidence? Or no??

I'm still not switching.

No matter what sort of strong-arm tactics are employed.

I'm serious. I'll move to LiveJournal TypePad if they pry the Old Blogger out of my cold, dead laptop.

My mother called to say she'd fallen down the steps at her doctor's office and had broken her elbow. I told her it was a good thing she fell at a doctor's office, but she said they sent her off to an actual hospital with people who could properly splint her arm.

She said it was a good thing this didn't happen before her holiday visit. I thought it was a good thing it didn't happen DURING her visit at the ice rink. I swear, I only walked away for less than two minutes, to take back the rental skates, and when I returned, she was splayed on the floor in the middle of a quickly-gathering crowd.

For those of you who wrote in to ask what a pair of Brian's old boots might look like - they might look like this:

Number of minutes I waited in line at the DMV for new license plates this morning: Zero

To be fair, though, I think the clerk was in a hurry to leave to start his shift at Hot Topic.

This morning I loafed too long and didn't take a shower. My hair was quite the mess and I didn't feel like dressing up for work. I decided to wear some black pants, a pink t-shirt and a pair of Brian's old comfy boots with the rationalization that I'm not at a public desk and I could sit unnoticed for eight hours.

The first thing that happened was the receptionist went home sick and I got scheduled to cover the switchboard for two hours. All two hundred people in the office walked past me in those two hours. Some walked by repeatedly. Loafers.

The second thing that happened was that I was nominated as Employee of the Month and there was a surprise party for the event. Everyone was there as I accepted my award and Macy's gift card. The final public embarrassment was having my picture taken so it could be put online for everyone in all the satellite offices (and, perhaps, the world at large) to see.

I'm sure there's something to be learned here. It's either A) shower or B) don't do such a great job that you win a prize.
