Would you pick us up a shrubbery on your way back?

Sorry I missed the chat, but I had no luck getting online last night. The baby wouldn't go to sleep until after 9PM and Becky was up until 11PM. These kids drive me nuts with their resistance to bedtime! ARRGGHH!!
Anyway, by the time they were tucked in, Glen was on the computer and since he's new at it, it takes him forever to check e-mail and follow links, etc. I started watching Men in Black II and as soon as that was done, I fell asleep.
I'm here at work and my stupid coffee maker is broken! This is the 5th coffee maker in 3 years! Why on earth don't companies make these things that last more than 6 months anyway?!! I've tried every brand - they are all horrible! So now I have to run to the store when my boss gets here to buy a new one. What a morning!
I'll be back after my adventures at Walgreens. Wish me luck on the Quest for the Coffee Pot.
Travel only by day...stay off the road.
Would you pick us up a shrubbery on your way back?
ARTHUR: O, Knights of Nee, we have brought you your shrubbery. May we go now?
HEAD KNIGHT: It is a good shrubbery. I like the laurels particularly. But there is one small problem.
ARTHUR: What is that?
HEAD KNIGHT: We are now... no longer the Knights Who Say Nee.
RANDOM: Nee!
HEAD KNIGHT: Shh shh. We are now the Knights Who Say Ecky-ecky-ecky-ecky-pikang-zoom-boing-mumble-mumble.
RANDOM: Nee!
HEAD KNIGHT: Therefore, we must give you a test.
ARTHUR: What is this test, O Knights of-- Knights Who 'Til Recently Said Nee?
HEAD KNIGHT: Firstly, you must find... another shrubbery!
[dramatic chord]
ARTHUR: Not another shrubbery!
HEAD KNIGHT: Then, when you have found the shrubbery, you must place it here beside this shrubbery, only slightly higher so you get a two-level effect with a little path running down the middle.
KNIGHTS: A path! A path! Nee!
HEAD KNIGHT: Then, when you have found the shrubbery, you must cut down the mightiest tree in the forest... with... a herring!
[dramatic chord]
It was 71 degrees outside yesterday and it's supposed to start snowing this afternoon!
I would never have guessed that about you...
