Jeebus, you people have nothing better to do than make me catch up?
Haze - that thing would lend a new meaning to ‘turn it up’
I got dragged out tonight to a after party-party that I really did not want to go to. Da Mayor in a nearby town (think Stacy Peterson) is kind of an old acquaintance and every year he throws a BEEG holiday party at the golf club for 600 of his closest [del]campaign contributors[/del] friends. I used to hang in that group, don’t anymore but a few good friends still do.
So, Mi Esposa wanted to go sit in the grill room at the golf course and meet said friends after El Grande Party-o. I didn’t want to see that whole group of hangers-on, but went anyway.
Had fun with the friends, caught up with [del]El Grande Poop-o[/del] the mayor, and had a decent dinner.
So I guess all is good.
rigsy baby I missed you.
No, really. I did.
Really.
Oh, and senor ursus swampus, I post from the can on a regular basis, I just don’t brag about it. Though I probably should, because it IS cool.
Ogbligatroy drkrune ptso. Whee!!! Bere godo! Spele sono. I lveo yuo gysu!
How’s that for drunk posting? Ok, I am dranke but can still spell. Yay me!
Oh, and know what’s a good thing? A good thing is that Waffle House serves breakfast all day long, 24/7. I shall have my waffle and bacon at some point tomorrow cause ol’ y’all know who owes it to me. Yes he does! He does cause I didn’t jump his bones in his oh so tahred state tonight. Plus I made him supper. I’m such a good person!
Have I mentioned that I’m drkun? Well, I am.
Oh and I’m downloadin’ some particulary salacious Pr0n that I shall share with aforementioned ol’ y’all know who tomorrow.
Was that out loud? Dang! I must be durkn. Even I don’t usually share that much TMI.
Nite Y’all!
Oh, I don’t think I’ve used this smilie enough in this post, so…
ETA: Senor Big Yellow Thingy Boss Guy… posting from the can is a good thing!
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing. . . often used in the treatment of PTSD. While the clinician has the patient moving their eyes back and forth, the patient talks about the troubling images. According to the article, it’s not known why it works.
Hey gt! Here’s to a calm and uneventful flight. Thanks for the thoughts, it has been a trying time, but at least I’m climbling out of the hole I was digging in the basement. I seem to remember you mentioning that kai and pie perhaps rhymed, but they don’t. The work kaiwik is an alutiq word, and is pronounced kay-wick, with the accent on the first syllable. It is a word which, in English 60’s/70’s slang, would have been expressed as “my old lady”. One’s significant other, but not “proper” as in “my wife”.
Thus endeth the foreign language lesson!
pie you are in my thoughts, financial troubles are just. a. bitch.
Here is another link for ya, rigs. It was amazingly effective treatment, albeit not very comfortable to go through. The end results were worth effort.
The wind is howling about the eves, the thermometer is holding steady at 36 degrees F. and it’s raining. I took my new head med a bit ago and am feeling a little dopey, so perhaps I ought to stop posting and begin moving toward beddy-bye time. You guys are the best (as if there were ever any doubt!) and I appreciate being able to vent and still have friends to come back to. Hugs and kisses all around, g’night!
Yabbut…I’m flying through Chicago tomorrow. <crosses fingers big time>
I have my clothes all laid out, but I need more pants, I think. And some more socks. I’m still deciding what to wear New Year’s Eve. It ain’t gonna be elegant. Good thing we’ll be with friends.
I’m staying up extra late so that I’m a little closer to my soon-to-be time zone. But I’ll be going to bed pretty soon, I think. I’ve been accumulating a list of stuff that I need to remember to do before I leave, but none of it will take terribly long. On the other hand, I need to write an e-mail for work in the morning.
Thanks for remembering my question, kai (and now I have to train myself to pronounce your name properly). Hope things continue to go better.
Got to make sure I’ve got everything collected and then toddle off…
I’ve updated my sig…thanks for being a willing [del]victim[/del] volunteer, FCM.
I’ll stop by again sometime before I head for the airport. Can’t remember if they have any free wi-fi there…
Glad to hear from both of you, Kai and Shadow. I must admit, Kai, that I’ve been “mis-pronouncing” your name in my head! I was thinking it was like “Ky,” or (for the Trekkies out there) the Kai (pronounced Ky) was the head of the Bajoran religion on DS9. It’s actually nice to know where kaiwik actually comes from too. Shadow, I’d been wondering how you were doing too, and am glad to read that you’re doing better. {{{{{{{HUGS}}}}}}} to you both.
Glad you made it back safe & sound, FCM; sounds like you had an interesting holiday. Hope that the van will be okay–sorry that it conked out on you, but at least you weren’t too far from home when it happened.
Today would have been my Mom’s 79th birthday. Don’t know why I’m up so early, but I am thinking of my Mom and of course missing her. I’m glad that it’s Friday, though, and next week will be a short one too (although I do have to work on Monday; it should be pretty quiet).
No. It was still Thursday when and where I was posting, but where **Noone ** is at, it was already Firday. I guess it doesn’t matter anyways, because it appears that he LIED. :eek:
[Johnny Depp as Willy Wonka] Ew! [/JDAWW]
It’s too early to be awake, but here I am anyways. :rolleyes:
And I’ve already gotten some stuff done. I’m hoping my sleep deprivation will allow me to sleep on the plane tonight; I’m usually really bad at sleeping on planes.
I’m awake, up, and getting ready to head to work. I work 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. today. Ick. Plus it’s a lab for a new computer system that we are implementing the first of the year and no one is showing up for them. It’s going to be a long day. I’ve packed a couple books, and writing stuff. I’m sure I will be spending a lot of time online as well. Fun, fun.
{{{{{Hugs}}}}}} to those who need or want them.
Oh and SpecialOne will be back in town I believe on the 28th, but he might need time to get back in the swing of things. Hopefully he will be back soon. Room 304 hasn’t had much use since he’s been gone.
Well, I’m awake. Mornings are too early. I think I have all my Emergency Hospital Supplies packed. I’m sure I’ve forgotten something important, but right now I’m too sleepy to care. Anyway, it would be nice if I didn’t have to use them today, but if I do, it will be Terribly Romantic. I guess.
Blech again. PiePup#2 decided to dance across my laptop and now the screen is all messed up. The top and bottom toolbars go away when a website is open. I tried fixing it, but it didn’t work. I guess I’ll have to wait until I see TVMan this weekend to put his wit to work.
GT, the snow has started here, and it’s supposed to snow all day, up to about 6 inches or so. More crossing of fingers.
My payroll secretary, god love her, is the most anal individual on the planet. Yesterday, I decreed that all of us that came to work must leave no later than 1 pm, earlier if they so wish, and that all will be paid for the whole day. I’m nicer than I ought to be I guess.
She stopped in here this morning TO COMPLAIN. (A) Because she thinks it’s wrong to pay people for not working, and (2) because what about the people that had to burn an entire day off to not be here at all? I said go read your e-mail; the one I sent to those of you that weren’t here saying that your time off sheets were changed from 1 day, to .5 day.
No more Mr Nice Bus Guy, I’m going to start being the Guardian of Time from now on.
Well, I guess that I’m hogging the MMP today. But I just needed a moment to complain. I’m at the shop today and I made the mistake of answering the phone. :smack:
One of my regular clients called and wanted to order some appetizers for Monday. Given my current financial situation, this sounds like a good thing. Right? WRONG. She’s got enough of my discounts saved up that she’ll be getting 6 dozen assorted appetizers for free.
