Work went well and I have my explosives packed for the weekend. I can rest well tonight.
Some of the people reading this may not but ---------- 
“hey y’all, watch this!!!”
Thanks folks. Developments have occurred. I have just been contacted by the Uni suggesting the course I’m applying for is below my skill level and I should go for the Advanced Diploma instead (basically leap ahead to second year). I’d already been upgraded from the basic Cert IV, now they want me at the highest level.
I’m even more daunted. I’m not certain, this seems a bigger step than I had anticipated, but the description of the course does seem like it would be more helpful.
Urgh.
OK, all I have to do is survive till my Dr appt. Hope I can. It’s so weird how a simple head movement means the difference between agony and no pain. Last night, my elbow seemed to be targeted, and this morning, it’s the back of my upper arm. And, of course, my neck from holding my head in an awkward position.
Apart from the aches and pains, it’s a loverly morning - upper 50s, low humidity, just really pleasant! It’d be a perfect morning to get some yard work done. Instead, I’ll be sitting inside drawing up fake instrument panels for a helicopter trainer. Good times!
I don’t think I shared this little tidbit from yesterday. The car guys called to tell me the cabin air filter in the Sonata looked like it had been snacked upon by rodents. :eek: We keep the car in the garage - I guess we’ve got rodentia living in our garage. Perhaps I should let Taz play out there a while…
Well, time to make the donuts. Happy Wednesday!!
Good Mornin’ Y’all! Up and caffeinatin’. YAWN 'Tis 68 Amurrkin out and clear with a predicted high of 90 and mostly sunny for the day. A nice Summer day is in store and I shall spend most of it in the east forty. Tomorrow I shall be in the west forty. In just over a month I can spend the day in bed if’n I want. 
BatKid go for it. I debated graduate skool for a looooooooong time and finally took the plunge. I have not regretted it at all. Good luck!
ruble I’d be worried if you didn’t have explosives handy on the weekend.
OK, that’s all I got. I need more caffeine and rumbly tummy wants to be fed. Then, alas and alack, purtification for irk must commence.
Happy Hump Day Y’all!
blurf.
4-fucking-30! Stoopit cat!
50-dozen cookies; could you slip a few off to your Mumper friends? Nooooo. 
Just realized I’ve been driving around (slightly) ill-eagle-like for the past few weeks as I never put the new insurance card in the car.
It’s like the Hotel California, they go in but don’t come out. Got pulled over one time w/o current card, but the stack of expired cards saved me. See, I do have insurance, just not the current one. I’ve had the same policy since I got the car, see ::fans the deck::
Blurf.
In a very shocking development, I was an hour early for irk today. Oh, the humanity!
Up, caffeinated, and sheveled. It’s nice out this morning.
**BBBobbio **- who are you trying to impress?? 
Not me…;):p:cool:
FCM, hope it all goes well for you today. My mom had serious pain the last 20 years of her life and it was not fun. I’m sure they’ll get it fixed.
Nothing day yesterday, may get a little more done today and mow the lawn tonight. Outside of that nothing of great importance.
Batkid, the school wouldn’t be making those recommendations if they hadn’t reviewed your record and decided you could make the grade. as others have said, Go for it! And good luck to ya.
Actually ------- that’s how we discovered you can fire a rubber chicken out of a 3-pound British gun. :smack:
<smacks Bobbio on the nose with a rolled up newspaper> Bad! Bad Bobbio!!! No!!!
Happy Hump Day!
It’s cool and sunny outside, windows are open.
SSDD.
Could someone remind me what “SSDD” stands for?
Same Stuff, Different Day. Or Same Sh!t, Different Day.

I thought it was Send Some Dunkin’ Donuts!!!
Three more hours till I can leave for the Dr. The ibuprofen - they do nothing!!
Afternoon, mumpers - it’s about an hour away from hometime and I have had a blurf all day. I expect I’ll still have it when I get home and it might even last until I get to the pub tonight. It’ll be the last pub night with 'im indoors for a while, he’s starting a new job on Monday so he’ll be living away from home during the week and not coming back until Friday evenings. On the plus side, the telly remote will be mine again. On the down side, he was meant to be seeing a band with me on Monday and now I’ll be going solo.
(((((gotti))))) - sorry to hear about the financial woes, it’s just one thing after another sometimes. I hope they get themselves sorted out soon and the nice people pay up before we have to send Swampy round to extract money with menaces.
(((((Nettie))))), hope you manage to de-grump soon and things start to look brighter for you.
As for the rest of you, rosie’s sig to the lot of you!
Hell, y’all oughta see it from my side. I wake up earlier than usual, but too close to alarm time to bother going back to sleep. I’ve got no other choice that to get my ass dressed and head to the orifice. The saving grace is I’ll be done for the week by munchtime on Firday.
Hope you get some relief soon, Mooooom.
In other news, blurf.
