I Called In Sick Today


Recommended Posts

No Pac 12 love? Oregon in the final 4. Book it!

 

 

(I could not care less about college basketball but I heard a guy on the radio say this. YMMV)

 

Oregon is the only college team I feel positively about, so this might be biased...but don't be surprised if they find themselves in the elite eight.

If you are paying $20 for a haircut, I imagine people assume you did it yourself anyway.

and after 3 days, he is risen!

Pocket change cost me my first and only black girlfriend.   It was in the middle of a roaring poker boom and I was flush in ways most men don't even bother dreaming of. Money, it was like dirt to me

I will grant Ronny that SoFl driving is crazy. Having just seen that highway situation in amazed there aren't double digit fatalities daily. But the rest of his contentions are patently false, latenly ridiculous and quite frankly seriously unacceptable.

 

Spelling counts with snotty sentences.

 

Here is a win, I called up and turned HBO, and they gave me all the other pay movie channels for $10 extra, for 3 months. I asked about the Playboy channels, and they gave it to me for free for 3 months. Yippee. Gonna be a busy quarter of wanking

how do you just ask some customer service rep for porn

 

Okay, a couple of questions or issues. I don't believe Ron Mexico's masturbation schedule will increase or decrease with having the milquetoast Playboy channel. And who pays for porn? And porn that looks like that?

I am passing on doing a work bracket this year. They bumped the entry to $20 and I've watched about 3 minutes of college bball all year. So, no thanks

 

You should do the bracket, be one of the gang. It's $20 to look like a joiner, a go-get-em type employee.

Anyone know how long it usually takes to get a new pair of glasses? I've had the same pair for maybe 7 years, so I don't remember. Read some good reviews and called Target Optical on the 1st and got an appointment on the 3rd thinking it'd be cheap and quick. Really doesn't seem like it was either of those things. The exam and doctor were fine...no complaints there. The price felt like a lot and was more than I remembered, but I think it was in the ballpark once my memory was jogged. I was told it'd be about a week. Hadn't heard anything, so called them on the 13th to see what was up. "Let me find out and call you back." About ten minutes later they call back: "Yeah, looks like they shipped. We'll let you know when they come in." Feels like it's starting to stretch the notion of "about a week". Maybe I'm just used to the quicker turnaround of the internet age.

I saw Taylor Mac this weekend, it was good not great. (Nevermind the critic.) He's a drag queen who sang a History of Pop Music. Judy (Taylor Mac's preferred pronoun. Not "he", "she", or "x'e" but "Judy.")

 

Judy opened up with Laura Brannigan's Gloria, and sang and vamped for almost three hours. My personal highlight was when Judy brought on the 10 piece all female mariachi band, and they sang Love Will Tear Us Apart Again. As my drag kings and queens would say, FLAMAZING.

 

Less FLAMAZING was me running into the wealthy suitor at intermission. (No joke, this show had a lot of the LA intellectual and arty types. The wealthy guy loves to consume culture, and I bet he's out seeing a show 4-6 nights a week.) We had a brief awkward run in, followed by awkward conversation, capped with an awkward hug.

Essay is the Stugotz of likes.

 

 

Frau, nobody at my branch is doing it, and the guy that runs it farmed it out to somebody else that doesn't even work for the company. I happily did the football pools, and do most everything, but this one gets a pass.

 

The playboy channel is free, so that's nice. You're right, I probably won't sneak too many extra beats, but they have some fun shows, Swing, Foursome, etc. I may find them relatively bland with no pop shots, this is the kind of porn the wife likes and can be about. So, it may translate to a win for everyone. It's a free experiment. Go me

They put a post on our infonet looking for someone to be the go-between with Habitat For Humanity on organizing projects and such. I've considered doing it as a way to get some "leadership" experience for my resume but it involves doing stuff and I don't like doing stuff.

Well, more work without an increase in pay. LOL at doing anything outside of business hours and we do get 16 hours paid for volunteering for shit like this but still...I could just as easily lie and say I did do the organizing.

We got 14 long 2x4s and a chop saw on Saturday. The wife has plans drawn up to build the banquet for the kitchen eat in area. I'm looking forward to having it. Should be an interesting build. I'm just the unskilled labor, she's the brains of the outfit.

I don't think I've ever heard a miter saw called a chop saw, but it makes sense.

I have no idea the names. This one has the platform attached it it goes up and down, and some angles

 

 

We also have the hand held one with the round blade. We may have the one with the long thin blade that goes up and down

 

I'm a construction pro, clearly

I came up with a new rule for myself. I have banned any alcohol until I hit a certain weight target. I think 160 is fair, with the rule going back into effect at 165.

 

I have carved out for situations where the CEO wants to drink. otherwise I think this can work.
