I have become Larry King

I just have so many things to tell you, one of which involves me losing my pants.

First of all, I have proofreading out my arse, which I know might result in me losing my pants, what with all that paper crammed back there, but that is not what I am referring to in the above paragraph.

There is one company that I am still freelancing for, only because they have been good to me and they pay a lot and I don't want to lose them, as I have done with my pants.

Do you wish I'd get over my pants already?

Anyway, they sent me a catalog, so each day after work I have been rushing home to proofread for an hour, then I take Lula to the dog park, then I come home and proof some more. All before going to bed so I can proofread at my actual job.

Fun!

So if I miss a day or two blogging, please forgive. Actually, do you wish I'd post less often? Sometimes people say to me that they have to catch up on my blog, which makes me feel like there is too much to read. Do tell.

In more news, I made a new friend today, at said dog park. My new friend, who I will call Echo's Mom, has three big dogs and an Australian husband. Actually, she has an Australian shepherd, too. Maybe she is obsessed with Australia. This could explain the koala bear hooked to her back.

So, we exchanged numbers at the park (she has an iPhone. Hello.) and we are going to have dinner and get the dogs together and perhaps throw a boomerang. I am excited to have made a friend in Greensboro.

Also, Tallulah is getting fixed on Thursday. She will be a barren woman. She told me she wants to concentrate on her career, while still being able to slut around freely. I am down with that.

Plus not to mention too, there are now TWELVE geese babies at my work. Did I mention to you that there are geese at my work? Today the mom and dad let me and my walking friends walk right past them and we didn't get hissed at or wing flapped at or anything. Oh, if they knew how badly I want to kiss their babies.

In fact, one of my walking friends sent an email to us today saying she wouldn't be walking at the 3 o'clock break because she had a doctor's appointment. She told us to say hi to the geese for her. I wrote back and said, "If you come to work tomorrow and my eyes are pecked out, you'll know I granted your wish."

Everyone else sent her an email saying good luck at the doctor and we'll miss you on the walk.

Why I always gotta be the weird coworker?

Okay, so finally, I have to tell you that my PANTS were falling OFF all DAY. I am telling you, they are really loose. It is so exciting! I even tried to run with Lula a little today and I couldn't because I had a Stumblebum thing going on with my pants.

I totally need Mork from Ork suspenders. Shazbat!

I like how often you post. I look forward to a new post each day! And YAHOO about losing the pants!

[Kristin]

Oh-kay, I've always been a lurker. But, I figure if a post makes me cry because I am laughing so hard, it is worth leaving a comment! I had to read the part about your new Australia-obsessed friend to my husband. He just grunted. Anyway, I think you are hilarious, and I will continue coming back.

By the way, even though you don't know me, and really shouldn't care about my opinion, I love that you post frequently; you are a daily read.

[Jennifer]

I wish mine were falling down, too! Sigh. Now THAT is a great feeling.
Now - go shopping! :)

[Shannon]

No posting less! We won't allow it! It's come down to...if there hasn't been a new post, I leave a browser window open - which automatically refreshes. Said, of course, in the least-stalker-ish way possible.

Congrats on the new friend! And...shop. Either for a belt or a new wardrobe. :)

[Valarie in AL]

Yay!! Your pants are falling down, thats such a good thing. Hopefully mine will start doing that soon. This 5:00 am workout thing I'm doing better start paying off.

[Doodles]

Puleezzzeee continue to post daily! You make me giggle every single day!

Way to go losing your pants and making a new friend all in one day!

[dcrmom]

No! Don't stop posting every day! By the way, you got a mention in my AI post tonight. Get your ding-dang butt over there and leave me a comment. I know, I'm annoying.

Oh, congrats on the new friend! You ought to get mommy cards. You know, with a picture of a dog on them. CUTE? :-)

[Mrs.Boone]

June you crack me up. I love reading your funny post everyday. I say keep them coming.

[pattik]

You are missed when you don't post.
You are one funny girl I really enjoy
reading about. I am a lurker usually but
I wanted to tell you how much your posts
are enjoyed!

[Nancy@mycraftylittlepage]

Wow - congratulations on losing your pants, June. I got fixed, too, a couple of years ago and it's the best thing I ever did! Tell Lulabelle I hope she has an easy recovery! Nancy

[Lenette]

Congrats on the pants situation and your cheeseburger diet. I'm a little jealous actually, while your pants are falling off, mine are getting tighter! Maybe I should take up running, but I need someone to chase me first. Keep up the good work!

[Louise Cornbelcher]

How can you lose weight eating pork chop sandwiches? Are these with our without bones? Inquiring minds, etc.

[Laura]

I rely on your posts to take up 20 minutes of my work day!!

[kellie]

I always love to see your posts show up in my Blogline. And when you skip a day I always miss it!

So excited that you found a friend! Friends are good!

And, I LOVED MORK AND MINDY growing up!

[Cristy]

DO NOT STOP POSTING EVERYDAY!

(did that look intimidating and stocker-ish? i hope not. i hope it just looked excited.)

I too want to know how one binges on church picnic food and pork chop sandwiches and then has their pants falling off. Since I just had a baby, I could really use to know more about applying this strategy... see I've got this high school reunion thingy this summer that I'd like to look really svelt for AND not actually have to give up really yummy foods.

Oh, and yay for the new friend. Good luck w/Tallulah's surgery!

[Your Pal from MA]

A - Good luck to Tallulah and her surgery. Koty and Sadie are sending a big "WOOF" her way!

B - Yaaay on the losing of weight! Since I've been working at the Garden Center (did I tell you about this?), I, too, have gone down a size! Wheeeee!

C - I love when I've been busy and then have a day off and can read 3 or 4 of your posts in a row! LOVE them, June!

4 - Glad to hear you're making new friends in Greensboro! That's great!

5 - Miss your emails, but know you're busy.

[Teri]

You must post EVERY DAY! When things get too serious at work, I know I can count on June to get me through!

[Laura/DaPFG]

maybe the whole no-pants thing had something to do with the making of a friend. heee!

"... Tallulah is getting fixed... wants to concentrate on her career, while still being able to {***} "

Maybe that {***} IS her new career.

Congrats on the loose pants and new friends.

I have a book recommendation for you....

Please keep posting often! I just started reading your blog and I absolutely love it!

[Jane @ What About Mom?]

I'm sure your coworkers are glad someone is a BIT original.

It's always a treat for me when I miss posts or something (like the feed's broken) and then I come here and there is (are?)more than one to read. It's like when you miss your favorite TV show and then you go online and you get to watch two in a row.

I know, life is about as exciting as it gets, over here.

[Culpepper]

Everyday! Never stop. There are relationshops depending on your blog. My husband loves to hear my tales of June, Lula and Marvin over dinner. Please keep my marriage strong. Post daily!

[Darla]

You must post EVERY ding-dong day. Thank.you.very.much.

Congrats on the pants. What color suspenders ya goin for?

[Faithful reader in Pittsburgh]

I agree with the others - even when I don't have to time to read one day, it is always a pleasure to be able to catch up and have more than one entry to read!

Please continue posting as frequently as you do - we all enjoy your writing very much and you are always too funny!

[Tee]

I look forward to your posts--everyday! If you ever get over to Mourt Aire, NC check out the porkchop sandwiches at Slappies. Congrats on the falling pants!
