Mornin’, y’all.
I had a very strange dream myself, but it wasn’t scary. It did peg the surreal meter, however, because it involved:
If I didn’t know better, I’d think I dropped acid before hitting the rack.
It’s Firday! w00t!
Wow…such chattiness. I’ll have to catch up later, cuz I need to get to work. Ice cream was yum.
Back later…

Morning all!
Sorry about the bleach dreams, Soapy, although it does sorta fit. 
I’ve only got one lunch today so I’m kinda slacking off. Although I can’t slack too much because I’m the only one here.
After I deliver I’m going out to lunch with [sub]hmmm… What to call her?Oh, I know!!![/sub] SockLady*. She’s the one that I originally started this business with waaaaaaay back in the dark ages (1997). We never did anything for my birthday and also her birthday is coming up so we’re going to a nice little Italian restaurant for N.O.L.
*She’s famous for giving funky socks to people as gifts. Besides, she one of my two best friends, but calling her Older Best Friend sounds disrespectful at least.
Also, I think I’m going to start a thread about my front window dilemna (sp?). I’ll link to it when I’m done.
It’s Firday. Raining right now. Off to work.
Dude, wrong thread and wrong message board. 
Sorry, I get confused sometimes.
Good Mornin’ Y’all! Happy Firday! Especially for me cause no work.
I was sound asleep by nine last night. Thus, I was up a little before six this mornin’ all refreshed. I pulled an all nighter. Yep, didn’t wake up to pee once! Since I was up and all, I put collards, peas and squash on to cook so they’re all done, cooled off and in the fridge. I feel so productive. I told ol’ y’all know who that he has a special supper tonight and to think Sunday dinner at grandma’s. I have decided that I will make a peach cobbler (one of his favorite things in this world) for dessert. I spoil him don’t I?
I dreamed that I went to LiLi’s place to pick up JoeDawg because she was babysittin’ him. In dreams Canada and South Jawja are right next to each other. Anywho, Mr. Lisslar made a picture of LiLi holdin’ JoeDawg and me holdin’ Nat. Then Nat went swimmin’ in my pool. He also called me Unca swampy. In dreams a baby who is just beginnin’ to crawl can swim and talk. Then there was talk of several other Mumpers who were comin’ over but I never really did know exactly who. All in all an entertainin’ dream and no bleach was involved.
Ok, since I’m all productive, maybe I’ll go do some laundry and give da cave a little spiffin’ up.
Later Y’all!
No more slacking off here, I just got a last minute lunch for 55 people!
once again…
zoooooom
Hi and bye
mooooooz
Good morning and Happy Firday!
Not much to add - just checking in…
Gratz on the busi-ness and on not being eaten by a dragon, Pie 
My niece has been figuring in my dreams lately, at least twice this week I woke up when I realized that “gee, the reason I can’t see her face clearly is because she ain’t been born yet! I must be dreaming!” I hope everything is ok.
Mom is at her parentals’ this weekend, so no phone call tomorrow morning. Trying to decide whether I want to drive down to Portpatrick or not. Trying to decide whether I want to do it tomorrow (when the alternate plan would be to drop by the local Games Workshop store and look at all the pretty painted figures, they’re launching the new manual so there’s a bunch of geeky stuff planned all day) or on sunday. Guess I’ll decide when I wake up tomorrow
One of the guys from work held a party at his house last night. It was nice, but I wish I’d known there was going to be a raffle, cos I hadn’t brought any money (the clothes I had on didn’t have pockets and, since I went there from work and that implies my laptop’s carrier, I didn’t have a handbag). Met lots of nice folks, loved the house.
At work, creatively avoiding do the actual work I have!
Sleepy- been up since four (thank you vampires and visions of my own death… no bleach involved).
Hope everyone is having a good day–
Hi Lunch!
(Roo says I shouldn’t make you mad…)
I guess last night was the night for bizzaro dreams. Mine was about little Tiki Bird who was the size of a Macaw in my dream and heavy! Okay, not as weird as Gnat swimming in Unca Swampy’s pool.
Speaking of Tiki, we are making progress in the taming department. He’ll come to the cage door opening and eat millet out of my hand now. I’m taking it slowly. Oh, and he does a reasonable facsimile of saying “Tiki Bird” as well.
Alright, I’m off to check my bank account to see if I can squeeze a few bucks out of it this afternoon to go rummage through Ross for a couple of new shirts. We’ll see.
Tupug
Let’s clear a few things up…
Eagle feathers most likely refers to the American Bald Eagle, there being many more than one kind of eagle in the world…
Ice machine still no worky this morning, but Domestic Goddess that I am, I fixed it! It is now happily making ice (I am of the opinion that appliances are happiest when fulfilling their designated destiny).
I hate my cat and may skin him for a muff. Of course, he’s so huge, it would be more like muff, ear muffs, and hood…
Can the successful boat sellers send some good juju my way and convince TH that he needs to sell his boat (that’s been on the water twice in 2 years?).
I got #2 son’s glasses jerryrigged a bit, but still think they need to go in. Maybe just not today (Monday).
#2 son got a ride home (in the thunderstorm) last night, so I let him live.
See? I can be nice.
Lunch, sorry for accidentally hitting on you.
swampy of course you fit the definition of “older man,” not that there’s anything wrong with it.
half the damn MMP CHOCOLATE ICE CREAM! I hope it’s served in a cup.
Update on Slightly Creepy Stalky Boy, he’s into meth. Ugh. Later in the night when I went over there he shot up in front of me and I was just dumbfounded. His one saving grace is that he at least uses his own equipment and buys clean needles from the store. Not saving enough though, but I haven’t decided whether I’m just not ever going to talk to him again or send him a text message explaining why I’m never talking to him again.
Frustrating story about college admission #54: I called my high school LAST WEEK and left a message on the registrar’s answering machine explaining I needed a transcript, who I was, where it needed to go, and with my callback number. Nothing. Then Monday of this week I left another message. Tuesday I called to follow up, she hadn’t gotten my message the previous week, but I needed to fill out an official request form. No, she can’t fax it to me or mail it to me, I HAVE to go online and print it off.
So I had to CALL her this morning due to the website’s shitty design - why didn’t I think to look under “Counseling Center” for a transcript request form? :rolleyes:
And I don’t have a printer and we don’t have internets at work so I’m going to have to put it on my jumpdrive anyway to print it at work, then I’m faxing it to her ass.
Tooth still hurts when not medicated. I think I may grind my teeth in my sleep and just don’t know it. I’m going to call the dentist lady later this afternoon, because I can’t keep taking hydrocodone for it and driving around everywhere.
Off to work now!
If you want to go into the muff making business, I know where to find you 3 more walking pelts.
TGIFirday! I’ll probably be a little scarce today as I’m trying to do my blogging duty by covering all the (soggy hereabouts) iPhone 3G and Firmware 2.0 launch details, which is going to consume a fair bit of time. My new staffer still hasn’t posted anything, but since he’s trying out the new Firmware 2.0 he’s excused, since he can provide some nifty articles on apps and such. I’ll probably do some of that myself when I update my iPhone. (I’ll still have to keep my iPod Touch jailbroken for jailbreak app reviews 'n stuff.)
ChaosBoy - Ugh. Meth heads. I wouldn’t want to deal with that in any way shape or form. Burning the herb is one thing – not my thing, but at least it’s not particularly addictive and doesn’t screw you nine ways from Oniontown. Meth is just nas-tee. Great Og, look what they make it out of! Just bad news in every direction. Oh, and if it makes you feel any better, I had to take my wife to the dentist on Wednesday because she developed a nasty toothache either. He couldn’t do anything there without a proper appointment but she did get some Tylenol 3 and penicillin to kill the infection, so hopefully that will help. I’ve also been there myself, and it’s never pleasant. Tooth pain may well be the most excruciating pain you can experience that doesn’t involve broken, skewered or severed body parts.
Rigs - “skin [my cat] for a muff” – an interesting turn of phrase. So many double meanings here that I don’t know whether to eek! or giggety!
Back to blogging and work.
Accidental, hell… Wait, you mean you didn’t really mean it!? See, now I’m **really **offended! :mad:
Ivory, Roo… no need to be jealous. We can all share…
Yay on some unexpected business, Pie!
I know you’re over it, still {{{Rigs}}} for yesterday. And also {{{Ivory}}} – nightmares are no fun 
Our cat is still a growing boy, so we’re not skinning it yet… right now all we’d get out of it is probably a largish pair of mittens.
Ummm… that’s all. Read everything but retained little. Dinner is in the oven ans I’m resting a bit
OK, it must have been the night for weird dreams. My dream was that there were nuclear bombs going off around wherever I was (didn’t recognize the area). But no one was really upset. It was just kinda like “ho-hum, there’s another bomb… whatever.” And we were driving away from it, over a mountain so we were like “we’ll be fine. No radiation sickness or fallout or whatever will get to us.” Everyone was just so calm about the whole thing. Weird.
DonkeyBear, that’s about as much fun as calling my high school to try to deal with repaying a loan I got from them for college. They have no system set up for taking payments. Or sending out bills. So every once in a while when I feel like sending them a check, I do. And then wait six months. And then call them to say “um… so are you going to cash that check?” And then wait another month. And call them again. And wait another month. And then maybe finally see on my statement that the check was finally cashed. I’m trying to GIVE them money. It really shouldn’t be that hard.
I haven’t sent them a check now in probably a year. I wonder if they’re going to notice. I still owe about $2500. You’d think they’d set up some sort of system where they send me a bill every month and I send in a payment and the payment gets deposited. That’d be the logical way to do it, but it’s much more fun this way, isn’t it?? :rolleyes:
CB good idea to stay away. Meth is some bad stuff (though the people I knew smoked it, which is the preferred way here afaik).
Busy at work, tonight going to Stampede, so I won’t be here much.
Ta! zips off
