I Called In Sick Today

[Sickinfo2 291]

PBR on ice. Very hip.

 

I ended up hanging out with her quite a bit

 

The girl (the date) is incredible. Face, eyes, beach body, and smart as a whip to boot. We hit it off.

 

tore up the dance floor, shotgunned beers, and basically had a fantastic time.

 

"Hey _____. If your long distance thing with (groomsman) doesn't work out, I'd like to throw my long distance hat into the long distance ring."

 

So now we're chatting semi-regularly, and I've started an internet relationship with a girl over 1000 miles away.

 

 

 

 

I dunno who this is, but the above clues eliminate every regular in here but me. And its not....

 

 

 

 

Breaking news...

 

 

 

First fart outta the gate

[speedz99 145]

It's pretty easy. You just take a buffalo, dip it into a chicken, and then convince it to stay still on a plate.

 

That's chicken buffalo, idiot.

 

Notdrunkenenuf....

 

Oldie but a goodie.

 

Important to note, he lives in New York and she lives in Miami. They were apparently "friends" from college and had rendezvoused just for this wedding.

 

I feel like this makes her fair game...almost. Depending on how close you are to him. I assume he has no idea that you're both in the same long distance non-relationship?

[speedz99 145]

I'm in NYC until Wednesday, and I'm thinking about emailing the ex to meet up for a drink. We still email once every few months or so, and I think/hope she's amused instead of bitter about the fact that I'm moving here after telling her there was no way in hell I'd move here with her. It was long enough ago for it not to count, right? I'll just mention my mom's cancer in the email and she has to be nice...I really just want to see my old cat.

It's fair game. They dated in college, and it feels like it was more of a nostalgic thing with them. He's not a close friend but a friend. Making a move at the wedding would have been a different (and more interesting) story.

[speedz99 145]

Then god bless, and take pictures when you go visit her in Miami. They can be of other girls on the beach if that makes you more comfortable.

Beans, do I need to worry about the fluids if its vertical for an extended period of time?

 

Thanks btw. Can't believe I didn't think of that.

So I think I've found the house I want to buy. It's nothing too special just a split foyer jobby but all the big stuff (roof, heater, a/c, water heater) is brand new or only a couple years old. The downside and the upside are the same problem. It's not technically on the market yet so I've got first crack and don't have to worry about competing for it but I do have to wait until their new construction is closer to being done in order to start my mortgage app and get a locked in rate. If all goes as planned I should move in around 1st of september. It's a 3 bedroom so I'm going to start searching for a blonde chick and brunette chick to get as roommates so we can have all kinds of wacky adventures due to a minor miscommunication. Most of you probably won't get the reference but I think beans will.

Shake and his new ladyfriend can be the Ropers, later to be replaced by Essay. Napa will be Larry.

[The Ocho 970]

I always knew you were secretly gay

I feel like you never actually watched the show.

[ShakeZuma 585]

Recipe?

 

basically the same that you can find from frank's via googling, but with ranch instead of blue cheese. 25 oz shredded chicken, cup hot sauce (frank's), cup ranch dressing, 16 oz cream cheese, 1/2 cup mozz, 1/4 monterrey jack, 1/4 cheddar, bake at 350 for 20. I then put more cheese on top and broiled for a few. better presentation. it's simple but quite tasty. I like tortilla chips for dipping but you can use just about anything.

well if you are a new poster, you seem like you'll fit in well.

 

 

except for the whole "ability to talk to women" thing. what a weirdo.

 

bench or angle grinder.

 

I was thinking about getting a bench grinder for sharpening blades and axes and such, but you say an angle grinder will work just as well? I feel like that would take a lot more precision and skill, no? guess you'd need some sort of vice to mount the blades/ax in. guess I could just squeeze them between my knees. not like I'm risking anything with an injury down there anyways.

[Sickinfo2 291]

I'm in NYC

 

 

 

Dont forget to hang out in times square, buy a bunch of overpriced drinks, and smoke a cigar or two...

 

 

 

Beans, do I need to worry about the fluids if its vertical for an extended period of time?

 

 

Well, I wouldnt exactly hang it like clint eastwood, although I have before. As long as the cylinders on the motor are facing forward they cant get oil or gas into them

 

 

 

If the gas tank is in the back none can get in the block, either....

 

 

 

Just drain the oil before you raise it up and put fresh in after lowering it to be safe. Like I said.... never saw a husky mower before but it probably has a kohler engine with that power

The only lock in the situation would be Randy as Larry

 

 

 

Me and the ole lady would be the ropers.... jubi or oucho the regal beagle bartender for their pop in with one liners occasionally

 

 

 

Shake as Jack Tripper... always fallin down. Terrible boss. Havin me fix stuff for him around the place

 

 

 

Janet or chrissy could be just about any of the rest... its too early for this much though

 

 

 

Now Im gonna have to play some music to get that damn theme song outta my head...

Just bury the axe in a block of wood or the side of a tree to hold it. I hold it in one hand and sharpen with the other. Dont take much pressure

 

 

 

As I get smarter lazier in my older years I just sharpen the blades on the mower as well. Keeps from dragging out the air hose/impact/cordless impact and removing/replacing them...

 

 

 

I used to take them off when there were just two.... now mine have three and thats just too damn much I guess. Keep in mind you dont have to get them shaving sharp. I do remove them every three or four freshnings and half ass balance them, though

 

 

 

I saw and advertisement a while back for a dealie that attaches to an angle grinder just for sharpening lawnmower blades. Its a jig that holds it at the correct angle with rollers or something. I just eyeball it. The grass dont care

 

 

 

Ive got a couple bench grinders. Never hardly use them anymore. In fact one of them has a cutoff wheel mounted to one side for some crazy reason I dreamed up many moons ago. Was dangerous whatever the hell I was doing with it...

 

 

 

I have three angle grinders on the bench.... one with a grinder, wire cup wheel, and cutoff wheel. Got tired of changing them. Probably my most used items in the shop

 

 

 

..oh and one big ass bastard I bought a horrible freight with a giant diamond cup wheel on it. Currently grinding down a small concrete slab for a marbled look when and if it ever gets stained and cleared. Ill tweet a vid later.

I'm voting Loogie as funyet. Clearly a Party Down reference, although the avatar doesn't match the screen name reference. He travels and is long distance, and uses the word hip. Only problem, he doesn't usually enjoy the company of women or pursue them.

 

So yeah, I got nothing.

[JubilantLankyLad 1,957]

You can be Chrissy.

I think he enjoys their company, and he doesn't even have to pursue them (they offer), but he tends to turn them down because of honor or laziness or something.

[InternetExplorer 2,609]

ordered the study materials yesterday. gonna figure out how to handle the format, then try one of the practice exams to figure out where I suck.

 

I mean, I know where I suck and where I'm going to crush it. I will get face melted on any math stuff that requires memorization. that can be dealt with easily enough though.

 

it'll be nice to know how far I gotta go though.

 

hope you are all gay as ever,

[Essay21 2,387]

Good luck Strat.

 

I'm gayer than ever.

 

I did go to the casino twice this weekend. Up 200. Solid sesh.

[InternetExplorer 2,609]

texted with a former coworker from the government job this morning. no one from my group has been made permanent yet. the job duties got far more involved, with fewer people, etc.

 

feels like I made the right move.

[InternetExplorer 2,609]

oh yeah, have I complained about my work from home situation yet?

 

basically, it doesn't cost the department anything to give people work from home access, and it costs me like $9 each time I come in. so when I am asked to come in for only four hours on a Saturday, it's actually just jamming as much salt as you can into the wound.

 

and like, there are people a rank above me who have access, doing the exact same work. so this last weekend, when it was implied that I should work the Saturday, I basically ignored it.

 

I don't know, I just get irritated when my time/money is arbitrarily wasted.

[Ron_Mexico 4,220]

Have you considered being self employed? Might be a way to go for you. Although, it would make your job hopping a tad more difficult. But I really think you should work for yourself.

 

I had an unusual amount of anxiety going into work today. Like, All I could think about was not going and reasons to call out, to the point of my heart racing a little bit. This feeling is new. I dont like it. I think its more than my typical laziness

[InternetExplorer 2,609]

I would be a lot more tolerant if my employer were any less of a faggot about everything.

[Ron_Mexico 4,220]

Bad News: employers are mostly faggots about everything, always. See: Zuma, Shake

[iZuma 764]

let's be fair to my employers though, I'm a pretty terrible employee. and person in general.

[Ron_Mexico 4,220]

You make some fair points.
