Happy for ya’, bro! 
I had an :eek: moment this afternoon. Hubby called to tell me he was going back to the hotel. Then, he screamed like a girl. There was a noisy pause, then he said, “OK, I’m on the shoulder.” (I didn’t know he was actually driving.)
He had a front tire completely shread going 60 MPH. The truck could have rolled over. :eek: :eek: :eek:
He sent me a picture of the tire. It made me cry. He could have died and I would have heard it. :eek: 
I don’t know whether to be mad at him or over-joyed he’s alive.
Hmmm…translating to Hebrew online without a license, calling The Cute One “ma’am” and not capitalizing. (Yankne…er, Northern Women hate being called “Ma’am”.)
You watch your ass. :dubious:
Since we don’t get to pick our nick names…I am neither “Studley”, “Killer Computer Tech”, or even “Two Dogs Fornicating”, :rolleyes: hence forth, Thou shalt be “Knitting Watermelon.”
While I am at it, (and seeking support) Rosie shall be known as “The Cute One”, and Swampy as “Goes Home Early.”
Spiderman shall be “Studley” and Captain Kirk shall be known as “Women Faint”.
You’re with me guys, right?
I shall be “His Enemies Testicles Shrivel at His Approach”, or, “Little Rocks”.
Can’t… makes my neck hurt. 
With you **HETSAHA
WF**
I suspect that TPTB will disallow it, we need to work on the SHARK plan so we can take over this joint, just saying. Boys?
I played at being an electrician all day today, DNS has lights and a switch, removed about 40’ of old conduit and wire, hung lights and prepped for tomorrow.
I also came up with a way to load 1000lb sections of staging into the trailer that was neither scary or difficult. All previous methods have been both.
Go me 
Busy season begineth, I am up to my eyeballs in shows this weekend and I get to make the Loud with Candlebox this weekend :dubious:
Will post pics
Beer Now

Bless your heart. (yeah, I’ve been in the South for 35 years)
Irked, came home.

I’m not trying to be intentionally vague so forgive me but this has been a hugely emotional evening and now it’s almost 1 in the morning and I haven’t made it to bed yet and tomorrow is the first day of school for the students. Ugh. It wasn’t a bad day but it’s really given me lots to think about. I guess I’ll attempt to go to sleep.
Good Mornin’ Y’all! Up and caffienatin’. YAWN 'Tis a very muggy 73 Amurrkin out with a predicted high of 87 for the day and more rain. At least yestiddy the rain held off until night time. I got into some heavy rain on my way to da cave and about an hour after I got home it came a frawg strangler at da cave.
{{{picu and StickyBuns}}}
flytrap you forget Rosie decrees most of the nicknames. You might want to watch your ass. 
Jim if this rain keeps up a few more days you’ll be able to just have a shark swim on over on its own.
Oh, my cable has been out since sometime Sunday night. It was supposed to be fixed by eight p.m. last night but that ain’t happened. :dubious:
Ok, now I need more caffiene and rumbly tummy demands sustenance. Then, alas, irk purtification must commence.
Happy Tuesday Y’all!

Blurf. With cinnamon and sugar on top.
Have you made the requisite entry into the cable company’s Permanent Record yet? :dubious:
I wasn’t aware we had an official nickname-decree-er. I though they just sorta happened naturally, as all nicknames should.
Only slightly related, when I was in the 8th grade, one of my classmates took it upon herself to give everyone nicknames. But they were all stupid and no one used them and at least some of us just wanted her to shut up. For example, one girl’s last name was Snyder, so her “nickname” was Snidley. :rolleyes: Not that anyone but the annoying pest ever used it. She tried to stick me with a moniker based on my last name, but again, no one every used it. I don’t know what became of her - I tried googling her name since it was unusual, but it never came up in any searches… No matter, none of you care about that anyway.
The lesson in all this - if you ignore the person trying to stick you with a stupid nickname, they’ll eventually disappear from the face of the earth.
And from our list of things-we-don’t-want-to-hear-when-we’re-in-bed, I was awakened by the sound of Ziva horking up a hairball. Fortunately, I did see it in the morning and avoided stepping on it. Unfortunately, Higgs found the wad of tissues wrapped around the hairball by rooting thru my bedroom trashcan, and naturally, she ate it. ick. Stoopit dog.
Today is my job interview - 2:30 this afternoon, to be precise. I was thinking about it the other day, and I’ve only had 6 job interviews since 1972, altho one hardly counts, since it was to return to the same place I used to work, and the other was a phone interview, which I don’t think really counts either, altho I did get the job. I’m not worried about this one at all - I’m pretty sure the job is mine to lose. But fingers crossed anyway, if you don’t mind. I don’t want to show up with something on my teeth or get a coughing fit or some such.
**FCD **stopped for the night in London, OH. He probably could have made it all the way to his aunt’s, but he was tired, and I’m glad he stopped. I hope he had a good night’s rest. He usually does in hotels because he can crank the a/c down to arctic, whereas I don’t like it that cold at home. And without cats and dog and me to disturb him, he should be able to sleep in as late as he wants to.
Meanwhile, it’s cool outside, but that’s going to change. Forecast is for mid-80s today and probably not dropping out of the 70s overnight. Time to turn the a/c back on. Dammit.
Happy Tuesday!
Damn it.
I know we’re not supposed to talk shit about other dopers outside of the pit, but there’s this one person who keeps bugging the fuck out of me, attacking me in the mini-rant threads, and it’s already in the pit so there’s little I can do. I really don’t need this on top of everything else that’s going on in my life. (Am I going to receive a mod warning for this?)
My main supervisor’s back at work today. How the heck am I going to admit to her that I got so little accomplished while she was gone? Damn me.
**Midget **- just remind yourself that everyone you meet on the internet is imaginary, then feel free to ignore those who annoy you. Life’s too short to waste energy on people who just don’t matter. And Mumpers are the only ones who *do *matter.
((((( ** Midget ** )))))
Just put him on your ignore list, it’ll be funny for the rest of us when he freaks out over you not responding to him
My idiot neighbour was playing music loud enough to keep me awake again last night. I could hear it at 10pm so knew I would need earplugs when I went to bed…woke up in the night and took my earplugs out thinking she must have turned it off by then, but it was still going. I shut the windows but I could still hear it, not loudly but enough that I was aware of it. I went to work this morning and left Metallica’s “Kill 'em All” on volume 55.
Blurf.
Booked vet appointment tomorrow for mousey, as her tumour’s back. It’s now on her face, and she’s looking pretty miserable. I suspect this will be a one-way trip, but then, I thought that last time…
Finally got round to fixing my pop-up gazebo last night- I took it to juggling club, and got some of the guys there to help (I don’t know why we bother calling it juggling club- recently we’ve been drinking tea, playing cricket/baseball with juggling clubs, bowling with people on office chairs, playing hoopla with hula hoops…). I’ve had it broken for three years, and had another broken spare frame for cannibalising for two years. I believe I am the queen of procrastination.
Today, however is not a busy day- I just have to do washin’, and maybe take some stuff to the charity shop to donate, or some to the recycling centre. Oh, and the van rental company phoned and rescheduled the interview for next thursday, so that’s good.
((Midget))
Midget, I think you have yourself a gen-yoo-wine case of a hopelessly insecure 13year old boy that has a HUGE crush on you. You have my sympathies.
BTW, how’s the tongue healing?
Look here folks, you all know me well enough by now to expect me to be absent/vacant/distracted for the last couple weeks before school starts, right?
Ok, just making sure…
See ya when I get to breathe again!
Curses!
Foiled again!
