Ghostbusters is so classic, lol! Don't cross the streams!

don't know if this is a "revelation" but -- one of my very first jobs was as an answering service operator where we used the old-style pbx exchanges with the cords that you plugged in. Just like Ernestine. I was awesome at it, too! And we dispatched taxis after hours, which is where I met my (now very ex-)husband. He heard my voice and had to come and check me out.

here's the second part of the story;

I was pregnant when I was working there (not by the guy I married), and I worked the swing shift by myself ending at midnight. One night, when I was nearing the end of my shift, I started to bleed. i got on the radio and asked my cabbies, um -- can anyone take me to the hospital? Please? I got a ride (bleeding all over the poor cabbies' seats), but here's the thing that has me shaking my head in hindsight: I felt I had to wait until my relief shift got there. Stupid--I could have lost the baby, and almost did anyway because I was early and bleeding. (My placenta had ruptured, and I had my BD#1 at 35 weeks the next day.)

I realize now my priorities weren't quite right there, but it turned out okay in the end

I can't ride a bicycle.
Neither can my husband.

When slicing sandwiches, I don't slice square across the middle, nor diagonally, but rather from 1/3 of the way along one side, through the centre, to 2/3 of the way along the opposite side.

ZG, you copycat.

I save the best french fry for last. Also, the best potato chip.

But they're best when they're hot, so by the time you're finished they might not be best anymore.

that's what I thought. Plus I always hope to have the self-will not to finish the portion....

I can't go to sleep if my legs are touching each other.

I'm the same way about my toes and fingers.

I give up. How do you keep your toes from touching each other?

I have no kookie revelations to give. But i do want to say that Ghostbusters is an awesome movie. I saw at the time and loved it. I've seen it years later and still loved it. There are so many standout performances in that film! Superb comedy.

I totally fell in love with Bill Murray in Ghostbusters.

LIAR! :>>>

Our 3 year old totally agrees with you. He is completely obsessed with this movie.

In other news:

Thoughts of my impending mammogram (the first of my life) are interfering in my ability to both comprehend English and think critically.

Oh, shit. Good luck! (Is it okay to wish someone luck on their mammogram?)
