LOLEsq says: Demands. I has them.
1. Tomorrow, I get to tell someone that he or she is being unreasonable. I don’t know who it will be just yet. I haven’t decided. This is just one of the many perks of my job. Perhaps I will draw the name of one of my sales people out of a hat and call and explain how totally unreasonable said sales person is. Or better yet, how completely unreasonable a Customer is and then I will say to the sales person, “I trust you can relay this message to the Customer without me.” And then I will hang up and go to lunch.
2. I have spent too much of the past week biting my tongue instead of growling and saying to someone, “Shove it up your balloon knot.” Or something along those lines. While I’m quite sure that this is building character, I am also perfectly comfortable admitting that I would rather be building muscle tissue so that I might assist in the balloon knot shoving. I know this is wrong.
3. I would like to cook a good meal with Plush. Will someone volunteer to be my commis and do the mise en place so we can just walk into the kitchen and cook like we’re doing a damn show? I don’t want to spend my time chopping things when I could be chasing her down the hall.
4. I wish to Twitter more. Please to be joining the Twitter and adding me so I can bore you stiff with up to the minute details of absolutely nothing at all. You know why? Because I am damn good at saying absolutely nothing in 160 characters or less.
5. Final demand: Sex and praise. (Truly, are they not the bread and butter of the single life?)

Sex and praise is the bread and butter of life, period — not just single life! ;P
Can I just say that “balloon knot” is now one of my favorite phrases? I’m trying to find a way to incorporate it into my next executive presentation.

You speak wisely, Avitania.
And now I demand both sex and praise from you!

Do you need a hug?
March 6th, 2008 at 8:52 am
1 – Sadly I think I do this nearly every day as well. Hrm.
2 – Sadly I don’t bite my tongue enough
3 – I’m a one trick pony but I do it well. I do your salted filet thing and it’s quite teh yumz. I will cook it for you.
4 – I have gotten more Twitters in the past two days than I have in a long, long time
5 – Done.
You inspired me to update some of my sidebar stuff on my blog. I updated mine and added some new schtuff. I’ve been lazy

Bev – I thought I was clear. Sex and Praise.
Sex
and
praise.
But I won’t turn down a hug.

Lynchseattle,
Why is everyone unreasonable except us?
I want to hear more about the salted filet.
Just saw your new sidebar! The google chat thing is cool, eh? And I’ve made the roll! Thank you.

I draw the line at a hug and an attaboy.
March 6th, 2008 at 9:08 am
Bev – I’ll have:
1 hug
with a side of attaboy.
order up!

I found your site through a Prosumer search where you asked if you could change font sizes. What was the verdict on that?
You can delete this comment after you’re done reading it if you like. Thanks for any help!

Hey there, Grey – I was just considering a change in my font size, as well. I can’t remember where I found it but I will dig around in the files and when I find it (most likely this won’t be until the weekend), I will leave you a comment on your blog and one here. -R.

Thanks so much! You’re sweet! BTW, that’s a cute ass dog.

Hi, Grey,
My apologies if I over explain this – I’m not sure how familiar you are with WordPress. I am not very familiar with it so the lengthy explanation would be necessary for me.
Go into your admin page, click on Presentation, then click on Theme Editor. On the right hand side, choose to edit your Stylesheet.
As you scroll down in the stylesheet, you’ll see language that looks something like this:
background: #FFFDF6;
color: #333;
font: 80%/1.6em Georgia, “Times New Roman”, Times, serif;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
text-align: center;
If you increase that 80%, that seems to increase the font. The 1.6 does something to how big the lines are. I’m a complete novice at this. My original numbers were 78% and 1.6. Maybe play with those a bit. I hope that was some help – I’m afraid I’m not well versed in CSS language.
-R.

Thanks, I’ll try this over the weekend.
