The 50 Plus Cafe, Pub, All-Nite Greasy Spoon and Dive Bar

3 am club strikes again....



I woke up and 0230. I rolled over and gave it another hour, said the f-bomb, and got up. Fixin'ta pour cuppa #2. It's pack-'em-up day. Got to do a wee clean on the job here and then ride down to the next brief assignment for orientation. Getting up to speed on the new job, one tidbit at a time.


Oh, my new/rebuilt big iPad wouldn't charge. No idea why. When the battery died, it rebooted itself and then started tookening a charge again. Who knew???
 
Good morning Boat1 and others of the Spoon. I had trouble getting to sleep and then staying asleep. My hip hurts, took ibuprofen, waiting for it to kick in. The good news for our nurses, no more bleeding and no fever. I am going to try to get some sleep. See you later.
Good morning and feel better soon!
I hope you get some good, quality sleep!!!
 
I've seen you around on enough channels to think that we "align" in a lot of ways...
I'll DM you about it sometime, if you like, but would you possibly be interested in a classic Chevy or two?


I had 2 Chebbies in a row that broke my heart and I drive Dodges/Rams any more. My classic interests are 1941-1947 Packard Clippers. I like the short wheel-base coupes the best, and I wanna build a ballsy inline 8 for one or two of the ones I have accumulated.


I do still respect old Chevies. I'd kind of like a '32 coupe.


Don't tell Wonderer67 - he likes Fords.

I LOVE the 32 coupe, but we don't have anything that old.

I know. She sends it through the Ethylsphere. Kitten, too. The boys are good. The girls oppress them.


I have to.work....or what i call it.

Phone it in make 6 figures.... tell my boss I need more work she says I do enough and I keep.phoning it in....

Guess i will work.on some more ceus


I'm making more than I ever have, and I've had an easy first 2 weeks here. Next week isn't sounding all that bad, either. I make phone calls, I look at plans and read spreadsheets, and I write reports. Wash, rinse, repeat. They're polite and helpful. I can do that, too, so I will. It's almost phoning it in but I have to be here. I can deal because they pay for travel. Generously.

Sweet little tdk.... she was sitting by the phone agreeing with everything ethyl was saying...

I am glad the new job is working for you.... I wish I was a little happier but thats me.... the eeyore of the group....

But I am a loveable little eeyore..... ♥️
 
Thanks! It is hard for her... we do work well together... she's who I've sought for my entire life.
I might tell our story one day.
How nice to hear.... it is a lot of work to keep a marriage together across distance. I saw it with my own parents. My dad was an over the road truck driver.... my mom had a lot of work on her hands
