A MMP for the last week of June

I wound up telling CableCo to go to hell, and went back to Verizon. They install on Thursday the 5th.

Gotta be Comcast. That’d never have happened with my CableCo.

We just switched to Uverse 2 months ago. You’re right, when it works, it rocks, when it doesn’t, you hope the Borg would assimilate it, and solve 2 problems at once.

{{{{{Soapy}}}}}

{{{{{Taters}}}}}

Cap’t, I agree. I got my Mumper friends, and my hockey Peeps(Rubble’s met them), and the faker and the drama queens can go pound sand.

I irked, I made southwestern meatloaf, I texted my “just friend”:)h

Metrocast.

Peedin - Brother D-Day & Brother Flounder have some experience in getting an equine up stairs; ummm, on second thought, that situation ended with many repetitions of “Holy Shit!” being uttered. :smack:

Jim - you’re scarin me with talk of your ‘last one’ which implies there was more than one. :eek:

No martini’s for me tonite; co-irker gave me a samplin from the bottle of Swedish Fish Vodka to sip as she’s moved on to the Bubble Gum Vodka now. It might be :slight_smile: or :(, but I have a feeling it’ll be more like :smiley: or :smack: as there’s probably no middle ground with concoctions like these.

I would not want fish liquor.

That would probably require some context. The relevant part is 5:33 to 5:45

Aw Jim, you rock. A martini, or really just about any adult beverage would go down well about now.

I opted not to stay late as my data mining system is still fubarred, or at least the one area I need to obtain data from is still fubarred. Every time they load a new universe there’s an issue. :rolleyes:

I will be staying late tomorrow and Thursday, and will probably have to come in on Friday, which is my RDO. DO.NOT.LIKE but I have to get stuff done or I’m going be locked up on our psych ward.

I bought groceries on the way home because we were too busy running back and forth to the hospital from last Thursday through Sunday, and then Sunday we brought MiL home and had to pick up her 'scripts and groceries too.

Well, I need to cook dinner. Hubby is asking and to be fair to him, I haven’t really cooked much of anything since last week.

If it is FiOS great—but be prepared to deal with Satan’s billing system…

Practice makes perfect :D:dubious::smack:

That said, have you ever seen James T. Kirk cause harm to anyone that didn’t really need it? I live by a code and unless you are a red shirt you are safe with me. :wink:

JIM

Bet the Target employees cringe when you walk in.

Up, caffeinated, off to irk.

No problem – if you can’t vent here, where can you…?

Good Mornin’ Y’all! Up and caffienatin’. YAWN ‘Tis 67 Amurrkin out with a predicted high of 92 for the day. This weekend, both Sattidy and Sunday the high is predicted to be around 102 for both days! HAWT!!! Good time for a pool partay. We’re havin’ a birthday/pre-Fourth of July gatherin’. Hot wings, ribs, smoked chikin, corn sallit, coleslaw, N.O.T. sallit, some kind of cake and copious adult beverages. Should be fun!

And now this…

Now I need more caffiene and rumbly tummy wants to be fed. Then, alas, irk purtification must commence. Gonna be an interestin’ day yet again. I’ll be so glad to get this end of year stuff outta the way.

Happy Hump Day Y’all!

Happy Soapy Day!!!

I managed to sleep in till a wee bit past 6. So far today, the terlit has been scrubbed, I’ve showered and dressed, a load of towels is in the washer, cat box is scooped, and I’m chowing down on a cheese sammich while surfing. Not bad for being up less than an hour. :smiley:

Today is mostly laundry day (in honor of Soapy, if course… :wink: ) but I’m also going to seed some of the bare areas of the lawn and make sure they’re well-watered. After I mowed yesterday, it was pretty clear where the grass didn’t take. I’m thinking I probably didn’t water enough in some spots in the early days of the seed. No biggie - I’ll get it covered.

House is still open, but I expect before the day is over, I’ll have to close things up again. Bummer. Another heat wave is coming. Stoopit summer.

Still, Happy Wednesday, all!

Happy birthday, Soapy!!!

Hugs all…

GT

This makes me want to ask Virgin if they wouldn’t mind diverting my LA flight and just drop me off near Swampy’s place instead. Who needs to visit LA and SF anyway?

(((((Taters))))), sorry to hear you are having so much trouble at work, it is an awful situation when you know what needs to be done but your superiors aren’t helping out.

They interviewed for my post yesterday and have offered the job to someone so it looks like I will be out of here at the end of July. Time to tell my agency I need them to find me a new home!

Happy birthday, Soapy!

Happy Birthday, Ivory!!!

ETA (at Boo): Boo!!

Wow, you guys are up early (or still up, depending!).

Thanks for the happy birthday wishes! Last year on my birthday I felt pretty bleak. This year, while things are far from perfect, I have a lot more to be hopeful about. For right now, that 's good enough for me.

Or, er…, Doping at work… :eek:

:smiley:

Blurf.

T -32:19:46 until vacation starts. Almost 48 hours until my kid+gfriend land at the Bawlmer airport. :cool::cool::cool:

You and Lance Armstrong?

Ok, that was rude… :smiley:
