If this annoys anyone, all I can say is that the line forms to the right. I’m even getting on my own nerves right now.
Let’s see, over the past 24 days - got in car accident, other driver not insured, car deemed total loss, neck and back pain preventing me from physical labor, found out I need total hip replacement (6 months of severe pain with walking or sitting) unrelated to car accident, unable to get home equity line of credit due to my condo being on Indian lease land, dialysis tech program (I’m the director and chief instructor) on hold due to lack of funds and change in school owner. I am definitely being punished for something…
What am I forgetting? Oh yeah, Mr. beckwall has left me, as of Sunday the 15th.
(profuse apologies to Rue and the wonderful tradition of MMP)
Oh dear. It’s Monday afternoon here and I haven’t had a terribly good day. However mine pales into insignificance compared with yours beckwall. I hope things improve.
Beck, dearie, all that is Pit material simply so you can use the good cuss words. However, if you want to gloat because someone FedExed boxes of ravenous weasels to the clown that rammmed you and departed hubby, that’s fit for the MMP (today’s edition should appear soon)
Until then, {{{Beckwall}}}, a ton of good vibes, and a ‘How you doin’? ’ thrown in for good measure.
Yikes! What have you done to piss off Og? Sorry to hear so many sucky things are happening all at once. Mr. Beckwall is an idiot, to leave someone as witty and charming as you.
I like V-Bob’s idea–I don’t have any ravenous weasels, but I do know where I can get a rabid racoon. We could FedEx it to Uninsured Driver. That’d learn him!
Dear Og, woman, what did you do? Sneak off to the tribal land and steal one of their Pricelss Relics and now you have an Indian Curse on you?
I think, yes, it does need the Pit, merely for, as Bob said, you can swear a lot.
(Eyes, do you think next month could be any worse?)
I’ll tell you what… this can be the All Beckwall Sympathy thread and the new MMP will start up on its own. (Not that you did anything wrong. Technically anyone can start the MMP. No points off your account.)
{{{{{{beck}}}}}}, you aren’t being punished. Round these parts it’s what we call “crapple” cause s**t happens. You were just unlucky enough to get it all at once. Mr. B shouldn’t let the screen door hit him on the rump as he’s leavin’ is all I’m sayin’. Hang in there, it’ll get better. Meanwhile, we’re here so you can get some much needed doses of sympathy.
The MMP is the Monday Morning Post by Rue de Day. He starts it off with a long rambling story of somekind, and the thread soon degrades into an existential hijack-fest.
Lots of inside jokes for all involved.
On a couple of occasions, the MMP has been started by others, but those that had the gall to do so were soon FedExed boxes of ravenous weasels.
Wow, when it rains it pours. I’m so sorry you’re going through all that crapple, beckwall. Please let us know if there’s anything we can do, no matter how silly it might seem.
Sorry, Beckwall! That really sucks. On the bright side, I have to guess you’ve had your share of woes and it will all be bright from here on out. Get much better, soon, please.
I’m sorry, we’re all out of ravenous weasels today, would you care for a nice chandelier? <–hey look! an inside joke.
I’m sorry to hear about your troubles Beck, they make my own minor difficulties seem trivial. (how that’s supposed to make you feel better I don’t know). Anyway, you have my sympathies. {{{{{Beck}}}}}>
Beckwell, good wishes all around! You really did get it piled on, didn’t you.
It is just no fair!
As it happens, I do have some ravenous weasels–three, to be exact. I hate to add to your woe, but they are over-rated as agents of vengence. They could nip the targets unmercifully, and they could beg from the person to within an inch of the person’s life (“don’t you see how skinny I am! and so cute!”), but that is really the extent of it.
Hang in there beckwall - you know we’re all pulling for you. Consider yourself hugged cyberly, and fed chocolates or whatever comfort foods please you most.
