We drove through Cumberland, MD today on our trip to Indyanner. I had a personal moment of silence for Norinew.
I had the ultimate engineering geek nightmare last night. I had to find the distance between two points by using drafting instruments to construct a hyperbola. Under machine gun fire, too.
I’ve done the drafting exercise in class in college, and I could tell you in theory how to do it now, but I couldn’t do it in my dream.
I’s very grumpy right now. Par for the course road tripping with VWife…
Bobbio, :(. Thanks for having a moment of silence on behalf of all of us.
That was funny, FCM.
Sorry to hear you’ve still got the icks, LiLi. Maybe this time it’ll at least let up sooner?
I’m afraid the snark was well deserved, FCM.
Long week, but…it’s over! I’m taking tomorrow off so that the plumber can come and, I hope, replace the kitchen faucet and possibly the two outdoor ones. And then I’ll do something fun, I think. And also finish the ceremonial emptying of the closet and dresser.
I think I’ve made it through all of my pants and dumped a bunch of them.
Mr. SCL complained the entire time I was in Tenn., but has spent about an hour with me since I got back. Is emptying the catboxes that bad? I was having fun and wish I was still up there. I hate being here.
Being unemployed is a bitch. I know I’m depressed, but can’t afford the meds I need. Life sucks sometimes.
Good Mornin’ Y’all! Up and caffienatin’ YAWN 'Tis 74 Amurrkin with a predicted high of 96. Wow, Summer weather. Imagine! Even hotter tomorrow which is ok cause that’s pool time!
MOOOOOOM ummm… at least he’s employed? Maybe he’s found his callin’!
Tonight I get taken out to eat at the good seafood place. Ok, we’ll be usin’ my bday certificate (good for any purchase up to $15.99!) but still it counts as bein’ taken out. We likes the discount stuff we do! I foreesee broiled scallops in tummy this evenin’. The place makes nummy broiled scallops.
{{{Snakes}}} hope things get better for ya soon.
Have fun travelin’ and in Indyanner BBBobbio.
Now I must seek more caffiene and brekkie for a very demandin’ rumbly tummy. Then, alas, irk purtification must commence. Don’t wanna!
Happy retirement, FCM!**
The wrapping on the tuna sandwich I just ate says it “may contain: traces of fish; fish products…” Apparently they use the same warning (on differently-colored labels) for all their sandwiches.
Other than that, nuthin’ but the blurfs from this side of the pond. Six weeks today I will be jetting off to Jamaica, with or without a job to come back to…
swampy, I’ve been a pharmacy tech for years, but my state doesn’t require national certification, just a state license. But since work pays me to take it now, I figgered “why not?” And although I didn’t get my official certificate yet, the compyooter tells you whether or not you’ve passed as soon as you are done.
I’ll be thinking of you at about 10:30 or so as you’re handing in your badge while I’ll be in Pointless Meeting #428 about testing a new processing system that isn’t likely to pass final acceptance tests.
Oh My! Thanks for all the bday wishes! Makes a bear :o it does!
I’m flyin’ under the radar so far re bday. I have not mentioned it and I don’t know if there’s some kind of super sekrit bday calendar or what not. I mean, I like the people I irk with and all but irk folk are irk folk and friends are friends, right? I do understand that sometimes irk folk can also be friends but so far I really haven’t met anybody I’d hang with outside of irk.
Oh and I’m answerin’ the phone this mornin’ and doin’ paperirk. Envy that!
swampy, darling, shouldn’t you save that smiley for OYKW?
I’m going on vacation 8 minutes from now, so y’all have fun and share TMI and recipes and all that jazz while I’m gone, y’hear?
Congrats on your retirement, Mom!!!**
Another day off here, with nothing planned except happy hour this afternoon. I am going to the store later, however.
