Some people have way too much energy this early.
Never mind why I’m up. Just know that I am one grouchy mf right now. You have been warned.
Since I am up so early (and on a day I don’t have to work-sweet. NOT), I’ll flatiron my hair. I want to smash and burn things, might as well be my hair.
<smiles sweetly> and good morning to all of you! <smiles sweetly, teeth clenched>
so much for the flourescent green butterfly effect…
Lunch, I’ve always got 10 minutes. 
**LOUNE ** quit complaining about the morning! Here you need pep. hands over some pep.
The flourescent green butterfly that cannot fly IRL as depicted in the commercial…
I stopped by the horsepistol this morning to take BioWife the paper and some new bottles of iced tea. She was asleep, so I didn’t disturb her. VWife is seriously sleep deprived right now…
ETA: Ralph makes a damned good alarm clock. 0430: <stomp stomp stomp><purr purr><headbutts me several times> ‘Feed me, you jackass’. Lucky for me that was when the alarm clock went off.
[Obnoxious, sweet and cheery voice]So, Rigs – beautiful morning, isn’t it? :D[/OSCV] (d&r)
::Slinks off into the backstage shadows with McUne::
10 minutes?
. . .
Nah, too easy.
:: wanders off, carefully giving rigs a wide berth ::
And what could be better than a bunch of total internet strangers sayin’ “Hire Snakes cause she’s nice, dammit!” 
Mornin’/Whatever Y’all! Home, showered goin’ to bed shortly. Also beerveraged. Just had to check in first.
Puggy I’m goin’ with Pergo flooring in the dining and living rooms and kitchen and methinks ceramic tile in the laundry room, though I’m not real sure about the tile just yet. The way my house is set up, the same flooring throughout the livin’ and dinin’ rooms and kitchen would look better cause they all kinda flow together.
Gas leaks and lazy students Haze, oh my!
Tell VWife to keep givin’ 'em hell BBBobbio!
Jah I meant to comment on the OP yesterday but forgot. It’s great! Nice description of a Fall Sunday afternoon.
It’s rainin’ here. Been rainy the past few days off and on. YAY!
Ok, off to sleepy land.
Later Y’all!
Afternoon all…I am still at home looking after the parents. My Dad has been doing his exercises faithfully like a good boy and is doing absolutely marvellous. We have his follow up on Friday with the surgeon.
Other than that I now have to transfer into one monster spreadsheet a bunch of confidential data/rankings/comments for 163 people…dull dull dull
I may however take a small nap first…
Oo oo oo incase anyone is interested I am getting married here next August 15th. Date was confirmed this morning
Ooh…pretty!
What’s TLDR mean? I see in another thread, but am 
Mmrph. Morning, everyone.
How’s the party plans coming, Bob? Hookers all ordered? Kegs coming?
Taters, it’s great that she probably has a boyfriend who isn’t the… difficult, out of state, much older guy. Right? The Other Guy is the creepy ten-years-older internet friend?
In other news, it’s morning, it’s nice and cool today, tinyninjachef has hiccoughs, and I should eat breakfast before tackling the huge mess Other Quasi Daughter and I made of the kitchen last night. Blergh.
Ah, head feels better.
Very, very sleepy.
Caffeine, must have caffeine.
Back when I am human again.
Mornin’, Mumpers!
Busy busy…
Dammit, they want extra for outcalls to Cottonfield County!!! :mad:
TLDR is just sooooooo rude!
bobbio, be sure that vwife doesn’t skip her exercises. What is up with her meal trays??
taters, a hickey? Doesn’t she know about turtlenecks??
ems, very cool place.
jah, I know exactly what you mean. Yesterday my team leader and one of the AEs each gave me a polo shirt brought back from The Dominican Republic. They are the exact same color of dark Navy blue. It’s a color I never where as a shirt or sweater because it looks awful on me. Um, thanks??
mbg, glad the head’s better. Was it the beerverages?
Still hot in Flawduh. No sign of Fall.
I haven’t been sleeping well either. Sunday nite seemed like I woke up every hour on the hour and then I went to bed an hour late on Monday nite because Heros was on…with more waking up. I think it’s mild joint pain that’s doing it. Getting old ain’t for sissies.
Other than that, I got nuttin
Tupug
I think they want her to chase the tray wagon for her supper.
The dinner droid came by last night to collect the MIA tray. She stuck her head in, looking to collect, and I copped a major 'tude on her.
[Real Deep Voice]“You can’t collect what you never brought her…”[/RDV], with bonus hairy eyeball added for effect.
“Don’t blame me, I just came on at 4 … (yada yada)”.
“Toots, dinner time is 5”.
I left at 6, and they were bringing a custom tray for her and one other patient as I walked out the door.
Morning, all. Stoopid Rusty, he decided to freak last night as a cool rainy front came through, so he kept me awake till the wee hours. So I am TAHRED this morning. And dragging my ass. And I don’t care.
Bobbio, if the food at VWife’s hospital is as disgusting/hideous/inedible/just plain AWFUL as it was at the hospital where I had my knee done, I’d be glad they didn’t bring me trays. Just fetch me takeout, okay? I think I lost 15 pounds in three days from not being able to choke down a single bite of what passed for food at this hospital. Hrumph. And to rub salt in the wound, my mom tells me how delicious the food is at her local hospital.
I should be doing something constructive this morning. Like finishing the transcript the office called me about to resend; I can’t resend it if I hadn’t sent it cause I haven’t finished it yet, can I? So off to caffeinate some more and then be a good girl. I guess.
I don’t know if I need more caffeine or what, but this was a little disconcerting this morning. It took me a minute to figure out why Haze shouldn’t coddle the kitties any more. What’s wrong with coddled kitties?? :dubious: :smack: 
Amusing if :dubious: story about the lady in the black bikini, Haze.
Um… there were other things I wanted to say to other people but… I guess in the future I’m going to have to start taking notes!
I made an apple pie Monday night so we’ve been eating it with breakfast. And dinner.
Someone put a bright red dot sticker on the deer crossing sign on the road by my work building so now it looks like Rudolph crossing. I’m amused.
Yesterday when I came back to work from lunch, I saw a dog running through our parking lot. It was so thin that its ribs and hips were sticking out. I felt bad, but by the time I parked, it had run away so I couldn’t try to grab it to take to a shelter or something. Poor puppy. 
We looked again at the townhouse we’re probably going to buy. But now we have a new dilemma. There’s one for sale by a private owner (i.e. not the developer) in the same complex. It’s already fitted out with the “upgrade” package that we want, plus some other stuff, like a fireplace, that we weren’t going to bother to add. But it’s >$10k less on the asking price than what the developer wants for one without the fireplace and we might be able to get the owner to drop the price even more. (Owner had to move suddenly for work so is selling at a loss and is really motivated to sell quickly.) But I don’t like the location as much as the one from the developer. But is it worth $10k or so?
In about a month, most of our larger billboards will have red lightbulbs installed at the lead horse’s nose. Stagecoaches can’t fly, but it’s still cute.
Morning, all!
I’m trying to make today as productive as I can. I’m doing laundry, homework, and attempting to make large batches of food to separate into lunch-sized containers for me and Acid Lamp. Laundry’s gotten a bit more interesting since he got a job doing special effects work. Yesterday, he came home covered in tiny bits of Styrofoam, so there are now small patches of it on the floor from when he shed his clothes last night, and his pockets were lined with small amounts of foam. Add tools and random doo-dads in his pockets, mystery stains* that will never come out, and you have the craziness that is his laundry. (*mystery stains = glues, solvents, paints, etc.) At least it gives me more “hot water” laundry to pair with dirty towels and I don’t have to worry about pens mysteriously getting into my work clothes laundry anymore. Heh.
Vbob: You should really talk to the food droids’ supervisors and make sure that they know that, not only are you not happy, but you will go up the chain of authority until this is fixed. It costs a ton of money for a hospital stay, and it’s not right for them to be forgetting to give your wife food at the proper times.
