Well, Jason and Roscoe had been feeling bad after finding that bit of meteor rock, never realizing that by touching it they had contracted space herpes. Meanwhile, Dan, was shocked to learn that his true father was actually an infamous, modern-day pirate, and had escaped prison to chase after some actual buried treasure. And, across town, Pamela and Paul finally gave in to their illicit love for each other, only to realize afterwards that their love was, in fact, completely....No, wait! That's my soap opera.
And, apparently, my boss injured himself skiing this weekend, though not too badly. Bumped a tree and bumped his (helmeted) head on a rock. Needless to say, there are numerous skiing accident cartoons gracing his office door this morning.
I had nothing to do with putting them on the door.
Morning FAWTLY Folk. So, the wife was still feeling bad this morning, and stayed home. Luckily, Charlie slept really great last night, so neither of us had to get up to attend him. However, I drop the kid off at daycare today, mention that my wife wasn't feeling well and had a bad stomache, and they tell me "Oh yeah, some of the other infants had stomache problems on Friday".
So, at least now we know where she probably caught this crap from. Seems it's been going round. Here's hoping I don't get it (or at least not as bad as she did).
The wife hadn't been feeling good since earlier, and while the boy and I were eating, I heard her blowing chunks upstairs. So, I go up and she's hurling in the f~@@ing sink. I go back down to finish my dinner BEFORE cleaning up her puke.
So I put the kid in his crib, while the wife is curled in a ball in our bedroom, so I can clean out the sink. The whole time I'm cleaning the kid is screaming is little head off. Finally get the sink cleaned, then give the kid his bath, then feed him a bottle, give him his medicine, then get him put to bed.
Somewhere in all this, I remembered that there were clothes in the dryer. I set them to run a bit longer so they wouldn't wrinkle, then once the kid was down I folded and hung that s$!~ up.
Then the wife asks me to go out to CVS and get her some apple juice and ginger ale. CVS didn't have any apple juice, but I was able to get her a couple of 2 liters of ginger ale.
Now I'm finally sitting down to relax. Damn, I hope the kid sleeps good tonight.
Bummed to hear this. While I don't have all the Planet Stories books, I have a good many, and plan to eventually fill out my collection. Hopefully, the series will be started up again one day.
In the meantime, thank you Mr. Mona, for all the hard work you put into this incredibly cool series.
So, I was watching Supernatural last night, and some poor dude got killed by a unicorn. As the unicorn turned to move away, it trailed a rainbow behind it. My first thought was, "Holy s#&$! It's Sebastian!"
I'm no longer into video games as much. Mostly because everything that seems to come out these days is an MMO. I do occasionally replay old games though.
Also, traded in an old car seat and stroller at Baby's r us for a brand new car seat and stroller. Woot! Plus, got the boy some stuff for his upcoming first birthday.
When I was single, of course, I hated Valentine's Day. These days, I think I hate it even more. Just one more f@#~ing day that I have to get my wife some kind of damned gift. As if it isn't difficult enough to find something she'll like.
So, back when I first started working here in Philly, we had a much easier computer system to work with. Easy in that we could actually load whatever software we wanted.
With that in mind, a bunch of us had Unreal Tournament loaded on our machines, and during lunch we'd sit at our desks eating and playing Unreal. Good times. My character was named HK-47, after the assassin droid from the Knights of the Old Republic games.
So, just recently, I came across some screen captured images of me winning a few rounds with old HK. That got me hankering to play again. I talked to the guy who original had the game, and he got a copy of it to me on a flash drive. Now I've got it on the computer at home and have been playing a bit.
