now for something funny

I don't get online much. I've been going through the forwards I get sent and found this one. It made me laugh so much!

*****

Tickle Me Elmo:
There is a factory in Northern Minnesota which makes the Tickle Me Elmo toys.
The toy laughs when you tickle it under the arms.
Well, Lena is hired at The Tickle Me Elmo factory and she reports for her first day promptly at 8:00 am.
The next day at 8:45 am there is a knock at the personnel manager's door.
The foreman throws open the door and begins to rant about the new employee.
He complains that she is incredibly slow and the whole line is backing up,
putting the entire production line behind schedule.
The personnel manager decides to see this for himself, so the 2 men march
down to the factory floor. When they get there the line is so backed up that
there are Tickle Me Elmo's all over the factory floor and they're really
beginning to pile up. At the end of the line stands Lena surrounded by
mountains of Tickle Me Elmo's.

She has a roll of plush red fabric and a huge bag of small marbles.
The 2 men watch in amazement as she cuts a little piece of fabric,
wraps it around two marbles and begins to carefully sew the little package between Elmo's legs.
The personnel manager bursts into laughter.

After several minutes of hysterics he pulls himself together and approaches Lena.
"I'm sorry," he says to her, barely able to keep a straight face,
"but I think you misunderstood the instructions I gave you yesterday..."
'Your job is to give Elmo two test tickles.'

Hooray!

Guess what I did today! I was able to get our 4Runner registered! The registration had expired in July. . . ): but now... it's legal! I, unfortunately, was driving it unregistered when I was pulled over a few months ago. I now have a big ol' ticket with my name on it. I have to reschedule my court date now that I have a J-O-B! (: haha, i just learned a new smiley I: haha, it looks like a chubby kid smiling. I love it! I;

I'm attempting to upload pictures from my camera, but I had to charge the battery and find the cable. The battery holds a charge for about ten minutes... and I'm not exaggerating!

Check out my sister's blog: www.xanga.com/rainfall_fj

She's coming to visit me soon!

no time

I just have no time these days. I love, love, love my new job. Yesterday they brought in pizza for lunch and they had a masseuse that gave everyone 15 minute chair massages! AH! It was the best. And today there is supposed to be a Wii competition!? What the heck?

The bad thing is that I'm tired all the time. That's no fun. A tired Cora is a cranky Cora.

I've missed my computer time and my tv time. But a paycheck is very much worth it.

I love you, Vanessa!
