Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today to bid farewell to my Sony Walkman mp3 player. After five years of faithful service, it gave up the ghost while it was on the charger last night. All resuscitation attempts with the paperclip on the reset button have failed and so it has been sent to the Land of Wind and Ghosts.
It will be replaced by another Walkman mp3 player after a brief period of mourning.
tl;dr
News on the infernal itching front. I have a liver biopsy scheduled for next Firday. Not soon enough…
Dear OG man, get better already.
Should have taken the Medical Mumper Mob on our offer. 
Jim
Spaz in this most difficult of times, it is hoped that all your music has been backed up somewhere.
BBBobbio hope all this is behind ya soonest.
Nuts ick! Here’s hopin’ you find more suitable irk soonest.
Pizza has been ingested. OYKW is about to take him a nice long soak in the whirlpool bath. He’ll be all nice and clean for later usage. 
Life is good. So are beerverages.
bobbio, I hope everything goes well and you’re itch free soon.
nuts, hope work either picks up soon or you find another job.
Bobbio’s scratching his arse??? :eek:
And everything else I can reach… 
TGIF. I am officially TDY to San Diego on Monday AM. I will be staying at Camp Pendleton. We will have 4 days of non stop learning. I will go to Disney Land one day and Seaworld the next. Yes this is irk.
I do not like to fly. I am real skeered of flying. I shall fly to ATL then to San Diego. Perhaps I shall have to get drunk on the plane. I have to wear real business clothes. No jeans and flip flops. Jeans and flip flops are all I ever wear but I do have real business attire but it will need ironing. :smack: the Butters does not like to iron.
We have a developing tropical system sitting right over us here in the Keys so the weather today has been wet and dreary. So dreary that I didn’t wake up for irk until after 10 am. Oops. Not to worry cause I have tons of leave and feel like they will owe me after next weeks 14 hr days.
Next Sat the 20th is my birthday and I shall spend it traveling from CA back to the Keys. Tis no way to spend ones birthday.
Y’all have a great weekend.
Time to switch to the sandpaper washcloths? I suggest a medium grit.
Boobiooo. Is itching a symptom of liver ailments? One time I had severe itching and saw the Dr. My itching only occurred at irk. Dr prescribed nerve pills. When a certain employee left my itching stopped.
Must be maddening for you. I can’t imagine long term itching.
Here’s hoping that whatever is causing it is fixed soonest.
How do people eat this stuff???
I bought a box of jammin jerk shrimp, Sah-son was going to fix it for me and then found out it was not microwavable and changed his mind.
He had already taken the shrimp iut of the package so he put it in a bowl in the frdge.
I made it tonight and of course the coating fell off the shrimp since it had thawed. I dumped a littler water in the pan with the shrimp, brought it to a boil and dumped in some minute rice.
OMG!!! It was still so hot I could barely eat it. My lips were on fire, my eyes were watering, I cannot imagine how spicy it is without being watered down and mixed with rice.
I may have to get some eggs and use it in omelets.
Or maybe get some sour cream?
I hate to s it go to waste, it tastes pretty good when you can get past the heat to the flavor.
Spidey so many faces, so little time.

The itch is a symptom of bilirubin in the bloodstream, which then gets into the various body tissues. Enough bilirubin in the dermal layers turns one yellow - visible jaundice. My levels are low enough that most nonmedical people don’t notice.
The biopsy is because the bile duct in question is blocked from the outside. That means liver tissue around the duct is inflamed and compressing the duct. There are lots of things that could cause that, but the quacks want to specifically rule out cancer. I’m not too worried about that because my whacked out enzymes are not the ones that go nuts for liver cancer. It’s most likely scarring from all the GB attacks, inflammation from fatty liver disease which is part of diabetes type 2, or some combination of the two.
If y’all start hearing news reports about a crazed gunman in southern Merrylande, odds are that I finally flipped out for good.
;)
I’ve considered it. When they finally put me in the rubber room, I want a scratching post.
Worked. Had Slow Girl , so I didn’t get as much done as I hoped. I have a 3 day weekend again. T.G.I.freakin’ F.
Hockey version:
2 Canadians die and go to Hell. The Devil throws them in the fire, but they just laugh and smile. The Devil asks the why, and the Canadians reply, “we’ve never been this warm before.” so the Devil turns the heat up. The Canadians are even more pleased. So the Devil turns the heat off, until it’s -200 below. he check on the Canadians. They’re dancing and laughing and shouting “The Leafs won the Cup! The Leafs won the Cup!”
Feel better, BBBobbio!
My condolences on your loss, Spaz.
Hope find a better job soon, Nut.
Good Mornin’ Y’all! Been up, caffienated, and brekkied for a while so no YAWN again today. 'Tis 73 Amurrkin out with a predicted high of 92 and maybe a lot of rain. Or not. Who knows! That’s what the forecast from the weather PTB sounds like.
Anywho, OYKW said yestiddy he needed to go into his orifice for a couple hours this mornin’ to catch up some paperirk stuff, poor thing. So, this mornin’ at about five I woke up and had to go pee. OYKW woke up as well. We laid there in the bed for a bit, with neither one of us goin’ back to sleep. Thus, the executive decision was made to go out and get some brekkie and then he’d just go to his orifice and get it all over with. So, I made coffee (ain’t no goin’ nowhere for da bear whilst uncaffienated) and then we purtified and headed out. After brekkie (at that paragon of gourmet dinin’ known as Three Squares Diner) he went on to irk. I went by Sam’s Club to gas up twuck and then went to the sto’ to get a few commestibles. Now I’m at da cave and have a load of laundry in the washer. I may or may not go back to bed for a little bit when I throw it in the dryer. Just towels and junk so no hurry to get 'em out of the dryer.
Butters I’m not afraid to fly, I just don’t like to fly. I accept it as a means of gettin’ from point A to point B in a fairly (somewhat) efficient manner. Hope the seminar is not too bad.
Sari that sounds like sump’n I’d love! I do find that a glop of sour cream helps with uber spicy.
Ok, on to other things.
Happy Sattidy Y’all!
Happy Saturday!
It’s a cloudy 64 degrees this morning with a predicted high of 73.
Nice and cool out.
Today is laundry day and I have to do some for sure.
My mother and her bf left early for their trip. I wanted to tell them goodbye and have a safe trip but I didn’t wake up. I feel kind of bad now since I haven’t talked to her in two weeks or so. Then again I haven’t been this pissed off in a long time and avoiding a confrontation with her seems to be the better choice.
Time to get up and get moving.
Caturday!
Up and caffeinated. Gotta run to the feed store for some food for Gordie today. It’s gonna bee a nice weekend, 75-82 for the next 3 days.
Heya all. I’ve been working on crafts. Practicing music. Pretty much what I do all the time. Got to play the alto clarinet at work the other day, so yay. 
Morning y’all.
Up and caffeinating. Got to get in the shower soon as my [del] slave[/del] friend’s son will be here around lunch.
