It’s 46 degrees Amurikin this morning, it’s dark, and Hockey season is a few short days away. I am a happy dogbutler.
Hijack away, y’all!
And from the last MMP: Good luck with the CPAP thing, Morgyn!
First! It’s good to be juvenile!
Good Mornin’ Y’all! Up and caffienatin’ YAWN ‘Tis 50 Amurrkin out with a predicted high of 79 for the day. Another great day to open windows. However, temps are climbin’ back to the mid to upper 80s the next couple of days so I suppose the A/C will need to go to work again.
Ok, that’s all I got. I need more caffiene and rumbly tummy is hongry. Then, alas and alack, 'tis Moanday so irk purtification must commence.
Happy Moanday Y’all!
Dunno if I ever mentioned this, but eons ago when I was working the mid-shift in San Diego, I’d occasionally go to San Diego Clippers games with my coworker friend Nita. She was a *HUUUUUUUUUUGE *fan who knew the players and understood the rules. She did her best to educate me, with mixed results. Digging deep in my memory, I think 2 of her favorites (she’d drool when they came on the ice) were Gordie Howe and Andre LaCroix. We’d go to a game, then go to work all hoarse from yelling. Ah, good times…
It’s warmer this morning than yesterday - about 44° just outside my garage door. **FCD **is still abed, Higgs has been tended to, and I’ve had a PB sammich on the heels of a loaf of bread, and I’m finishing my Diet Coke right now. When we get back from the gym, I’m going to wash sheets and a stinky afghan. I’ll probably do more stuff, but that’s the big item on my agenda, because it’s Moanday.
Happy Moanday, all!!
Good morning, y’all! I know I’ve been UA (AWOL for you non-Navy types) for the past few months. I’ve been a bit busy and distracted and I now fall asleep at 9:00 pm because I have to be up at 5:30 the next morning.
I am pleased to announce that I will have a job after the new year. After a [del]colonoscopy[/del] background check, I have been offered and have accepted a position with the Pennsylvania Board of Probation and Parole. I’m not sure when that begins because they’re doing the go-around with my current agency.
So that’s what’s going on in Rockin’s world. What’s new with y’all?
I have to do laundry today. Can’t put it off any longer.
Rockin’ congrats on the new gig! I know someone who just retired after a bazillion years as a probation officer. The funny part about this is her last name is Lawless.
Ooh, thank you! I’m not actually going to be a probation officer. I’m just working as a clerk in the office for a bit to get the nasty taste of my old shitty call center out of my mouth. It’s almost gone but it will still be great not to have to work with the public anymore.
Have a good day, y’all!
1 hour and 20 minutes until my work week is finished and I get to take two nights off. I have to say, it’s nice to be able to sleep without wearing a mask over my eyes. Kaylasmom is about to commence her third week of broken shoulder recovery, after which she’ll start physical therapy to stretch and loosen the muscles and ligaments that have been immobilized for so long.
In the meantime, I have to do a grocery run today because we’re out of butter (among other things), and I’m pretty sure that Valor is going to run out of dog food before payday. On the happy side, his sore neck appears to be all better.
sure you can. Buy more clothes. 
I woke up all sneezy and sinusy. The joys of Autumn Allergy Season. Blurf.
BLURF!
VWife and I went to Cottonfield County this weekend, then saw Jeanne Robertson in concert in Norfolk yesterday. Front row center seats, too… We got home very late, and I finally rolled in to the orifice around 0830 this morning instead of the customary 0600.
Is it quit o’clock yet?
Thanks. I think I didn’t put it on right, there was some leakage at the top. Having cool air blowing across your eyes is a little weird. I kept waking up and fiddling with it until it finally stopped doing that.
Anyone know if it’s okay to cough while wearing one of these, or should I try to take the face mask off first?
On my second bottle of Mountain Dew, and it isn’t even 10 yet.
Conga rats, rockin! I hope your new job goes well.
spaz, were you down to a bathing suit or an evening gown as your only clothing options this morning?
bobbio, I’m envious. Jeanne Robertson is one funny lady.
I go back to Nashville for testing today. I wonder if I should have studied. 
**BBBobbio **- I lurves me some Jeanne Robertson!! She’s quite the story-teller! I’s envious!
We’re back from the gym. I’ve got 2 afghans on the lines - ah, fresh air! There’s a load of towels in the washer and some sheets in the on-deck circle. **FCD **has gone to get some metal to make something for his dad, then he’s going to the dentist to pick up his xrays since he’s going to a new dentist tomorrow.
It’s shaping up to be a loverly day here - I’ll be opening the windows soon - we’re supposed to get into the 70s today. Yay!!
I just got a reply on Twitter from an actor I admired in my childhood. I’m going to smile all week! I love it when that happens.
All righty! Cucumbers have been saladed - they should be ready for supper. Dishes are loaded in the dishwasher - just a few more and it’ll be full enough to run. Sheets, towels, and afghans are out on the line getting all dry and sweet-smelling. I ironed the test t-shirt that **FCD **painted - the paint has set just fine - yay!
He’s in the basement making metal chips. I’m thinking about running down to the closest Amish produce stand to see if they have any more 'maters - the ones we got there last week were wunnerful!!! Life is good at FairyChatEstates.
Happy Moonday!
It was chilly this morning when I had to head out, now it’s nice and warm and just perfect outside.
So my appointment went well and surgery will be scheduled but not until after November. By then I may be able to stop taking plavix and so will be in less danger of bleeding to death.
I’m waiting for a call from my heart doctor, I screwed up taking my pills yesterday. I fell asleep early and when the alarm went off I grabbed my pill box and took morning pills instead of evening pills.
Tomorrow is move day. Sah-son is going with me although I’ll be bringing him back here on Thorsday. I’m taking the dog as well. Whatever I can’t fit in my truck will have to wait until later. I was hoping to get everything out at one time but that is not going to happen. Settlement is not happening either. At this point I don’t care anymore. I’m moving in and if anything falls through they can pay to move me out. If they want to fight until there is no money left to fight over more power to them.
I’m feeling the bitch today.
**sari **- you need to knock that off - bitches don’t like to be felt!!!
sari you may yet end up with a free house!
Howdy from da cave. I’m finishin’ up some irk stuff from here. I have a bunch of stuff to scan and submit from a foray into the west forty today and it just made more sense to head on to da cave from where I was, so here I am.
Sketties and meatballs for dindin (yanked from da freezer, so heat 'n eat!) along with sallit and garlic bread. An easy Moanday dindin.
Ok, back to irk.
I don’t know FCM
but anyway I answer that is going to be TMI or dirty or something.
Here’s hoping Swampy
This has gone beyond ridiculous but not my issue anymore.
My only fear is that I’ll miss a doctor/hospital bill and it will show up on my credit report. I’m being careful but there is no way of knowing what all bills I am supposed to get.
My window shades got delivered today, I hope they are safe on the porch. I just can’t drive out there tonight, I’m exhausted and by the time I’d load up the truck and get out there it’d be after dark. It will have to wait until tomorrow.
sari, I’m sorry you’re going through all this. Is the hold up for the same reason as before?
I had to submit a second claim with my insurance company to get the front end damage fixed on my Jeep. Damn it!:mad: I haven’t done a damn thing wrong, but I’m the one spending most every spare moment dealing with this shit. I submitted the claim, and they now have to “investigate” to after the towing company.
In the meantime, my husband finally called them and gave them an earful. He mentioned lawyer, and miraculously, my insurance company got off their asses and FINALLY got in touch with the insurance company of the gal who hit me. They have accepted liability, so at least I don’t have to pay the deductible on that claim (all the rear end damage). The second claim will be another story.
I texted my husband and told him what happened with the first claim and that I had to submit a second claim. He told me the first part was good news, but he still wants me to call a lawyer. I don’t want any part of getting a lawyer involved. It’s just more time and money, but he won’t listen to me.
I just want my Jeep back for my live to go back to relatively normal.
I also went down and renewed my car rental and was assured the other company is picking up the entire cost. They freakin’ better…
