Neptune's Birthday





Neptune was one year old yesterday. Not in Earth years, obviously — and not technically in Neptune years. Tuesday marked the day Neptune finally completed one trip around the sun since its official discovery on Sept. 23, 1846. One Neptuninan year equals 164.79 Earth years. Though the idea of a planet having a birthday is a little funny, I'll go with it for the sake of having something to celebrate. Here’s my birthday wish to the planet: May you never end up like Pluto.


Fun Quick Neptune Facts:
1. Neptune is the most distant planet
2. Neptune is the smallest of the gas giants
3. Neptune’s surface gravity is almost Earthlike
4. The discovery of Neptune is still a controversy,English and French astronomers battled over who actually made the discovery.
5. Neptune has the strongest winds in the Solar System. The winds there can blow up to 1,240 miles per hour, that is three times as fast as Earth's Hurricanes
6. Neptune is the coldest planet in the Solar System
7. Neptune has 8 known moons
8. Neptune is 30 times farther from the sun as is the Earth.

Dirty Diaper Dancing

have you ever seen anything cuter than this?? he gets his good dancing skills from his auntie :)

little accomplishments

So at work we have these new refresher drinks that have berries and lime wheels in them. so now we have two more containers to fit in our tiny counter.



I came up with the brilliant idea of stacking them on top of each other to save some space. so i took an empty plexi that holds straws


and had the brilliant idea to cut off one of the side to make a little cubicle to fit one of the containers under and one on top.


i got most of the side cut out, you can see the part that didn't cooperate. so i set up my little shelf only to realize that i could have just laid the stupid cube on its side and it would have done the exact same thing i was going for


let me remind you no one else thought of that at the time either. i felt pretty blond after that moment. i think its time to get the dye.


the end product!! :) yay for my little accomplishment :)

just let me rant


Conversation at work today (names have been changed to save the identity of the stupid. keep in mind the customer is a little overweight, a smoker, and is allergic to dairy)

barista # 1: Hey how are you?

customer: feeling like s#*+. the doctor put me on heavy antibiotics to get rid of this cough but its not working, the doctor has no idea whats wrong. I even broke a rib from coughing so hard.

barista # 1: wow i'm sorry, so are you getting your soy frapp a grande or a venti today?

customer: venti, i need something to take with me to drink during my weight watchers meeting. it sucks i'm not losing weight because I can't work out,and i need to lose some weight. I don't even eat anything, (pause) well i do eat. but i can't lose any weight because i cant work out.

barista # 2: oh, ok so do you not want me to put any whipped cream on it?

barista # 3: Yea, whipped cream is probably like 60 points. haha.

customer: no, give me the whipped cream.

umm do i really have to be the one to say it? i know i have bad habits and i'm overweight, but i try to make conscious decisions on what i eat and if i want to splurge on something i make sure its in moderation and a smaller size. i'm pretty sure her antibiotics for her cough are not working properly because she keeps filling her lungs with smoke. I know there could be some other underlying condition, but i'm pretty sure the smoking isn't helping with her cough. why do people complain about all these issues with their health but then do nothing to fix it. she could have easily gotten her frapp a light, or a smaller size, or with out whipped cream, especially since milk makes her sick, and we use very heavy milk to make our whipped cream. she is a nice lady, but sometimes i want to jump over the counter and shaker her, and yell take care of yourself!!!
