**Tao** be a dear and pick up a dozen filet mignons while you’re out. Hey, she asked, so go big I say! 😃

Howdy from da cave. I decided to call it a day early just cause I could. No idea about dindin. Swipin’ the General’s dindin sounds kinda good to me right now.

Sort of impulse-bought a ticket to a show today. 🙂 Had to go a long way for it, but I imagine it’ll be worth it.

Gotta try to find some music for the uke today.

Alright, in an effort to eat well this summer I just had a [Klose](http://www.bbqpits.com/) call. Snagged a 20x36 HD pipe smoker so we can rib and brisket-up. Now, if only some sturdy neighbors can help me get it out of the rental truck. I ain’t doin’ 550 lbs by myself. I’ll season it tonite, then party at lieu’s!

I’d like to hug whoever invented BBQ and patios. He/she wuz good people.

That would be **AngelSoft** , since the username is also a TP brand name. There is logic to nicknames here. 😃

My niece had her baby on Wednesday too.

The HFH is in TN so you know I’m no heading that way. She hasn’t come back yet and nobody knows when she will but I imagine it will be soon to see her new grandson.

Today has been a sucky day.  
It’s almost 4pm, I’ve been up since 6am and I still haven’t stopped long enough to eat. I said f’it and ordered pizza. It’s been chaos all day.  
I need to take a deep breath and pull it together.

It amuses me no end that these “Nigerian Princes” and others who want me to share in a multi-million dollar inheritance do not take the time to have someone fluent in English review the text of their emails. I have seen such ridiculous spelling and grammatical errors that the email is practically screaming “Hey! I’m fake! Don’t even think about falling for me!”

Day eleven million of having to deal with new chicks and training. Also, we had a guest with a Medical Emergency that required a 911 call.

I’m so damn tired it ain’t even funny. And I have to go in again tomorrow and do it all over again. Bronzer (the other new chick–that’s her name now) is going to find out I’m not kidding when I warned her my mood deteriorates greatly as the week progresses. Also, if she makes any more hints about wanting my shift, I’m going to clock her with a box full of soap. The managers want me on the morning shift because I get shit done for the other shifts. Also, I can deal with a lot of the little crap that pops up without bothering them with it. She cannot, especially at this point.

Vacation, meet Tropical Storm Andrea. It’s a delightfully gray and rainy day here at Myrtle Beach. Boo.

I’m glad you spelled that out for us as that’s not what I think of with most of those letters.

I know you’re being a smartass, but I have no concerns, even if there were armored Sri Lankan spiders with pointy sticks…per-feshunal courtesy an’ all! 😉  
I had to be out earlier & stopped for lunch at a Mickey D’s in the shitty. I turn around from the counter to see an older woman sitting there in a nice dress wearing a too-small “rain hat”, complete with the manufacturer’s name on it…Ziploc!

Yup, she was wearing a one-gallon freezer bag on her head. :rolleyes:  
Problem was, it only covered about 2/3[sup]rds[/sup] of her 'do, & none of her dress.
