I've been working a new job, one that I am not sure I will fit in with. It's a night job during Pacific time, so I miss most of the good threads until I wake up the next night. By then, they're over, deleted, or it's just irrelevant for me to post at that point.
I'm also working on my BSN, so that's taking away a lot of my AN time.
I miss you guys.
So, what are the best things I've missed this week?
Maybe we should start a poster's choice thread, kind of like ixchels "What I Learned This Week," of the most interesting top five threads of the week.
We could call it "The Most Awesome Threads You Missed," or "Where Were You When...," "How Did You Miss THAT?," or even "The Weekly Review" (boring, but apt).
Oh, no...it wasn't here. The cr@ptop was acting up; at the time there was a part that was defective, and Dell was even aware of it. I Googled the problem and came up with pages of websites devoted to the problem. Anyway, I got so frustrated that I punched it.
I'm normally not a violent person. If I was at home and something made me mad, I'd go play the piano and pick out a piece of music that required a lot of forte chords. Unfortunately, I was so mad I didn't make it to the piano in time.

We have similar styles!!!! Growing up, my mom could always tell if I was mad, sad or happy by the songs I chose to play on the piano! Lol I miss my piano

I have an 1982 upright grand by Wurlitzer. I'm in the mood to go play some Legato tunes
Mine is a grand by Kawai. I love it, but chemo has left me unable to navigate the pedals, and my fingers don't have the dexterity anymore from chemo as well.
Does anybody else notice that a lot of threads that would formerly been booted posthaste to the Breakroom side get to stay here now? Clickbait? Marketing about how many posts come to AN? Yep.
Personally, I think it's great. Cute pet videos can't be far behind.
In other news, my friend Esme is still not back ... send me PMs and I can forward them :)

Dell inspiron cr@ptop
Ha! Love this. I always referred to mine as a D(H)ell laptop. Lasted to just about when the warranty was up, then the hard drive went kaput. Did they fix it? No, they sent me a new hard drive and I had to install it myself as well as shell out big bucks to rescue all of my files and photos off the bad hard drive. Lesson learned: back everything up. And when the second hard drive went kaput, I learned another lesson: Bye bye D(H)ell and hello Apple! All of my previous laptops (2, but the first was bought used) running Windows quit after no more than 2 years. My Macbook Pro was purchased in 2009 and is still running just fine. The extra cost was definitely worth it.

LOL! I was curious and searched the name. I think she's been completely booted. No profile, no threads, no comments, except for where she was referenced in separate threads. She's a ghost!
That must have been some awesome snarkiness. Even He Who Shall Not Be Named didn't get that treatment.
