185 nanoparticles walk into a bar.....

I stole some pictures from the birthday weekend from Jancie's blog (which I've also added to my blogroll).

Liz took Jancie and I out for mani/pedi's on Saturday. Next was lunch at the Cheesecake Factory. She then proceeded to flirt with our very young waiter and invited him to our party. He didn't come. Probably got stuck in traffic or something.
Birthday girls!

The night ended at Top of the Hill.

This past weekend was a three day weekend thanks to Columbus day. So thank you, Columbus. I was very productive on Monday because I slept late, went shopping, went to the gym (okay that part actually was productive), and watched movies all afternoon. I was all set to go and discover a new land but by then it was dinnertime and my dad was making eggs and toast for DINNER! what?!?! Who would turn that down?

At lunch today I entertained my coworkers with my improv skills by telling them '185' jokes. My suggestion was nanoparticles.

i.e., "185 nanoparticles walk into a bar and the bartender says "Sorry, we don't serve nanoparticles here." So the nanoparticles say "What? We just wanted to try your micro-brew!"

OR

"185 nanoparticles walk into a bar and the bartender says "Sorry, we don't serve nanoparticles here." And the nanoparticles say "Fine, we will go next door to the Mar-tiny bar"

Yeah....maybe sounds better when you hear it out loud....? But remember I work with scientists so it was quite the hit.

Actually a coworker got in on the action and said:

"Two nanoparticles are at a bar and one says "See you later," and the other says "No you won't".

Get it? Because they are really small.

I thought that was pretty clever.




My Gramma is having eye surgery tomorrow so just want to send positive thoughts over the internet waves, good luck Gramma!!!
