Ways to keep people from drinking your protein shake left in the communal fridge; add spirulina powder and turn it blue/green algae color! Apparently no one wants it now! :cool:
 
my head keeps throbbing at a very mild rate. it's just enough to keep me off balance.
 
One of these days, at least for a few hours, I will catch up on laundry.
 
A DEA officer stopped at a ranch in Texas, and talked with an old rancher. He told the rancher, "I need to inspect your ranch for illegally grown drugs." The rancher said, "Okay , but don't go in that field over there.....", as he pointed out the location.
The DEA officer verbally exploded saying, " Mister, I have the authority of the Federal Government with me!" Reaching into his rear pants pocket, the arrogant officer removed his badge and proudly displayed it to the rancher. "See this fucking badge?! This badge means I am allowed to go wherever I wish.... On any land !! No questions asked or answers given!! Have I made myself clear?.... do you understand?!!"
The rancher nodded politely, apologized, and went about his chores. A short time later, the old rancher heard loud screams, looked up, and saw the DEA officer running for his life, being chased by the rancher's big Santa Gertrudis bull...... With every step the bull was gaining ground on the officer, and it seemed likely that he'd sure enough get gored before he reached safety. The officer was clearly terrified. The rancher threw down his tools, ran to the fence and yelled at the top of his lungs.....

"Your badge, show him your fucking BADGE!!"
 
I am sipping rotgut whiskey. It seems more fun than sitting amongst a sea of humanity at the seashore.

You have not tasted rockgut until you've tasted the whiskey they sold in the little market next to the hotel I stayed at in Copenhagen. It was absolutely horrid. I left 3/4 of a bottle for the maid to throw away.
 
Super stoked! Get to hire back an employee I had to let go 6 years ago when things were tough. Hard to find someone in my industry that is "plug-n-play" let alone be really good at their job.
 
Last night was one of the toughest in my whole life and it's changed the course of a lot of lives. I love my parents but I'm done with this partnership. I know that this is one thing I can control and I'm choosing to walk away and maybe it's because I am so overwhelmed at work with things I can't control but it was needing to be done. I can't be both their daughter and their parent. Something had to give.
 
I had to go get my physical today.

I could only answer the health questions about my dad, who died, and my chitlins.

They could not comprehend why I didnt know anything about my mother or siblings.

Hugs to you. I made that decision a decade ago and my life has improved dramatically.

But, it's still a hard thing to do. :rose:

most people can't. i've occasionally avoided telling people i have a sister because i got sick of explaining that we're estranged and then having to deal with a whole conversation about how sad or whatever that supposedly is. i've come close to violence once or twice. not fun.
 
In the end we will all be better off.

:rose:


Yes, but I can't even imagine my children thinking the same about me. I guess that I better be nice to them so someone will look after me in my "golden years"
