The downside of a home office

I can’t stand to sit with my back to the restaurant. I figure I was a gambler in a former life and got shot in the back in a saloon after a winning hand.

Or a mafioso. :slight_smile:

If I was, I’d want to have my desk facing the door not for that reason(even modern day ninjas need functional computers/tablets these days like everyone else), but just in case a few armed pirates show up to try proving they’re superior in a fight.

And while I can stock up on some cheap rum…even that’s far more expensive than having the ninjas dispatch them to ensure they have someone to turn to when computer/technology issues occur.

My husband likes to sit facing a tv when we’re eating out (if the place has them) and I like to sit facing a window, and since they usually don’t put the tv’s on the windows, it’s a win win for us :slight_smile: Just thought of that because the Thai place we ate lunch at today had soccer going and it was snowing, so we were both entertained when we weren’t talking to each other (it’s hard to talk with a mouth full of scalding noodles).

A great update to the story with both husband and wife talking about the viral video. Nobody too serious and nobody afraid of their spouse. :wink: Just a normal family dealing with a viral video and quick jumps to judgement.

One nugget: "The four-year-old bounced in, jubilant having celebrated her birthday earlier that day.

“She was in a hippity-hoppity mood that day because of the school party,” he explained."

Turn on ABC news. They are just about to show the interview with the family .

They actually seem pretty normal

You sound surprised. Why wouldn’t they be normal?

I just want to know if he was wearing pants for the interview.

From the article in #64.

Ha, liar liar pajama pants on fire :smiley:

Pants on fire? That is another thread http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/parent-cafe/1970385-miami-attorneys-pants-burst-into-flames-during-arson-trial.html#latest :wink:

@jym626 you’re completely misreading me. No drama here, move along.

Not getting your point at all- we agree-- they were /ARE completely normal. Thats the point! Please don’t create what isnt there.If you think you are being misread, maybe you weren’t clear. Move along is right.

Have you all seen the absolutely hilarious response video that just came out? (It’s a witty parody with a mom in the same role)

it’s facebook if the link is starred out…
