Not even a kiss?
Thank you to the one person here who wished me a happy birthday yesterday.
Thank you.Did I blink?
Could it be that I missed all the signs and portents?
oh dear.
<thinks>
Ok Mega Grovel.
Sorry; but I guess the time differences got me confused.
A belated
Many Happy Returns.
It just took me four hours to drive around the block. Yes, I got gasoline poured into my car's tank at the end there (less than 3/4 a tank), but still. Four hours of waiting. They were only running two fo their four pumps too, which is criminal. I should have complained to the police officer directing traffic. Four hours to drive less than a half mile away from my house and back...
That's better than nothing. During and after Rita, it was 10 days before any gasoline was available for anyone other than fire, rescue and police. The second Hurricane, three years later was a little better. it was only six days.
Quick blurt: I'm absolutely sick of the robo-calls I'm getting about the election. I answer them only so I don't have to listen all the way through on my voice mail.
When I'm in my office, I just lift the receiver and put it back down now. I did enjoy the other day being able to hang up on Bill Clinton. I've wanted to give him that treatment ever since he screwed up a perfectly good presidency by . . . well . . . screwing.
I've found I have to say "hello." That activates the recording. Then I hang up. If I don't, and nothing happens, I fear I may be put back in line. And I hate having to listen to the whole spiel on voice mail before I can delete it (no, I can't delete mid-message).
Don't use all of your "Hellos" on robocalls. We're only given a finite number of those to use, you know.
When I use up my quota, I'll turn it over to Mr Penn.
Hm. When writing a story for the Romance category, perhaps the best ending is not "And then she shot him."
No, that story goes in Loving wives.
Or in my case the story opened with her stabbing her husband.
I think I need a bit of an attitude adjustment and some inspiration. That ending just popped into my head. It "fits" but I think I can find something a little better if I stare at the computer screen long enough.
I'm not brave enough to post in LW.
Most of the time the first ending is the best ending.
As for LW's, just close the bubble up tight and take it through a car wash to get all the yuk off on the way home.
That's fine for the bubble, but some of that LW yuk gets into all sorts of places.
