I noticed this product:<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s a box called <span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">Pimp My Cubicle<\/span>.  If you&#8217;re bored with a drab workspace on your job, this box&#8217;ll make it bootylicious.  It contains the following:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>A money sign paperweight<\/li>\n<li>Gold push pins for your bulletin board<\/li>\n<li>A dazzling disco ball<\/li>\n<li>A &#8220;PiMP&#8221; mousepad<\/li>\n<li>Leopard-print fringe to hide grey cubicle walls<\/li>\n<li>A <span style=\"font-style:italic;\">&#8220;Bling!&#8221;<\/span> keyboard key &#8211; gold tootheses fo&#8217; yo&#8217; keyboard!<\/li>\n<li>A 64-page idea book<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>It&#8217;s on the first aisle at Bookstar, where they keep the clearance\/sale merchandise.  Or, you can click the link above and get it from Amazon&#8217;s selling partners at a discount price.<\/p>\n<p>You may notice I&#8217;ve added an Amazon search box to my blog, at the upper left.  If you need to buy anything from Amazon (and they no longer sell just books &#8211; they have EVERYTHING), please consider searching for it through my blog&#8217;s search box.  Amazon pays commission when people buy stuff through me.  Please support your local blogger!<\/p>\n<p>The trip to East Memphis turned hazardous on the way back&#8230; stopped at Memphis Pizza Cafe on Park, and while in there the storm clouds arrived and all hell broke loose.  Drove through a puddle on White Station so deep I wasn&#8217;t sure the car would get through it&#8230; then coming back home, I was going to stop at Bookstar again but it was closed because the power knocked out.  Continued driving west on Poplar and soon discovered why&#8230; there were power lines down in the middle of the road.  Finally made it home, and as I walked through my parking garage to the exit, lightning must have struck a transformer on the garage&#8217;s roof.  It sounded like a bomb went off!  It was good to be home.  At least the temp wasn&#8217;t 100 for a change.<\/p>\n<p>It was a productive trip though&#8230; Target had 70-page notebooks 10 for $1.  I keep my personal journals in those, so the $2 I spent on two packs should cover me until 2009.<\/p>\n<p>The Sunday brunch crew has decided to take a field trip this week, because one of our favorite former Saucer bartenders is now working the day shift at McGuinness.  So we&#8217;re going to go see her, probably followed by our usual stupid antics at the Saucer later in the afternoon.  Time to get this party started&#8230; I&#8217;m outta here!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yesterday afternoon I was shopping in East Memphis (to my favorite blogger\/MILF: Please note that I got out of downtown for more than 2.5 seconds) and on the way out there, I stopped at Bookstar to look around.
