As of right now, Ramy's been on the plane for 5 hours!

I'm still home, have to clean out my car, pick up a really heavy and warm blanket from my grandparents house, shower, etc etc etc laughing.gif I just ran out of time for everything biggrin.gif

Hope you all have a wonderful day!!!

So...is everyone feeling less nauseous today? laughing.gif In all seriousness I hope those who did yesterday feel better today.

Congratulations Sparrow!!!! Here is a funny one, by the time Ibrahim had come out of the immigration area I had watched so many people come out that weren't him, that when it was him, I just sat there. I couldn't believe he was finally here! I just sat there in shock.
Hope all goes well with your reunion, wedding plans and honeymoon!!

Happy Saturday.

Today I will be buried in paperwork at my desk . Most days, I have 3 things to work on, today I have 7. So anybody that has me on their yahoo messenger, feel free to distract me all day! I will welcome a chance to not compute yaradge.

sparrow---I can feel the excitement in your words! Enjoy your reunion!

Thank you!!!

I'm so nervous that I'll be pacing and looking in the wrong direction when he comes through those doors and miss him...and I don't know how I'm going to react! I want to run to him but running in airports probably turns the wrong heads (security, yikes) so that's probably a no...and then jumping on him would break his back...so that's probably a no.... hahahahaha

You've only known this guy 11 month and he's already asking for money. I know you probably have your heart invested in this man but honestly, he shouldn't be asking you for money. If I were you, I would've dropped him after the first request for money. I don't care how poor he is. If he didn't know you he would be surviving, right? He'd find a way to get by.

I get so frustrated by these guys who think they're "owed" something because they're poor or have crap jobs. Boo hoo...not your problem. They look at Americans with dollar signs in their eyes. He's a grown, healthy man. Tell him to put his big boy pants on and go out and work another job if money is that tight. Sorry for being harsh but I'm passionate about this subject.

Just sayin it how it is good.gif

Sorry, I don't drink coffee so I don't know what it's like blush.gif

Had terrible connection to Egypt today so waiting for fiance to call me back when he's in a better place where he can talk wacko.gif Kinda wondering if he will ever get around to it or just pass out when he finishes his work... he says he hasn't even started putting together the papers and everything for the interview, but has been running around crazy trying to get all his work done before heading out to Cairo tomorrow. He's staying with a cousin before the interview bc he lives 2 hrs out. I told him just to make sure EVERYTHING he has ever gotten together regarding the visa is in his car and to just sort it all out when he gets to his cousin's place blink.gif hope he doesn't space out and forget anything unsure.gif

Jackie- your desk is empty! I wish mine looked like that. At the end of the day I usually just open one huge drawer and literally stuff everything into it so it looks somewhat presentable while I'm not there.

What are you guys doing tonight?

My desk only looks like that mostly, but that's because I have a rack to put pending work behind my desk whistling.gif I hate having more than what I'm working on at my desk.... kinda a neat freak at work (now if I could just translate that to my apartment blush.gif )

Jackie, looks like we have the same phone! I love it! smile.gif

Latte's aren't allowed! Bcz of the milk, it has carbs. star_smile.gif I will tell you about my drink creation that is atkins friends.

Half-Caf Americano (Caffine should be limited) with 2 splenda, and 2 pumps of sugar free whatever syrup you like, and save room for cream. Add the half and half after you get it. Super yummy!
