The flow seems to have stopped, by the way, so that's nice.
EDIT: dang it! I don't need this today! *gets dressed*

Wow!
I'd say you deserve a cape for that, but I'm afraid it'll just get pooped on.
| 1 person marked this as a favorite. |
** spoiler omitted **...Dear God man, what happened?How many poops and/or vomits from other people did TL have to clean up today?
Five. Five poops and/or vomits from other people.
They were little people, sure, but that does not minimize the size of mess they can make.
At least my wife was able to escape to work.
>.<
that sounds like blackmail material to me...

I love my accountant, and I hate my accountant...
I'm one of those guys who (surprise surprise) absolutely HATES waiting for information. The whole hospital thing where the technician takes all the pictures, looks very concerned, says, "Good luck!", but then won't tell you what he saw because the hospital might get sued if he's wrong? Hate it! My accountant entering all the numbers into a spreadsheet to get a rough idea as to my taxes, then telling me he "doesn't do" ballpark estimates so I'll have to wait 'til he's done? Hate it!
So, I saw him on Tuesday and he's already finished with my taxes, and FedEx'ed them to me today.
But of course he's given me no inkling whatsoever of how much I owe, because "privacy".
Considering there's no way to tell from someone's tax bill/refund how much they really make, I'm really not that worried about "privacy".
So 24 hours of waiting for FedEx to arrive to tell me the bad news.
Aaaaaaaargh!

First day of calm in a while. Three high school visits done and the appropriate in-district transfer applications turned in, so hopefully when the kidlet starts high school next year he'll be able to go to the school he wants. And the run of holidays is finished (I'm pointedly ignoring valentines because ugh, I am so over celebrations already, let alone stupid, sappy ones.) so things can finally I hope get back to some semblance of normal. At least we managed to make my husband's birthday yesterday not totally suck. Poor guy. Not only did he have to work, but he got extra crises to deal with, and then a school visit, so that we weren't eating dinner until 9. But we got him a Dalek shirt and the kidlet made him a card and I made him birthday brownies, and dinner was really good if three hours later than we would have liked, so it wasn't all bad. :)
And today the kidlet doesn't need me to take him to anything because his after school club was at the school this time. So we get a calm night in and I'm making pizza, and if the kidlet ever finishes his chores and homework, we might even have time to watch some doctor who. :)

TL, sorry to hear about the sick kid. Cleaning up other people's bodily fluids sucks. Also, hope he feels better soon.

My kids are in a winter YouTube funk.
All they want to do is lay around watching f%@#ing YouTube all day.
Time to ween them for spring! It's going to hurt them more than it hurts me.

All my problems come down to fungus*.
Youngest has butt fungus from exposure (not as obvious as it sounds), and the eldest has ear fungus from infection.
Hm. My GM game features evil fungus... evil fungus has shown up in my kids...

Anyway, back to films and such.
My three favorite genres as a kid were.
1. Comedy
2. Scary
3. Cartoons.
Mine were:
1) Cartoons

Oh! You mean as a teen!
That changes everything!
In that case, it's:

Wait!
You mean in my college days~!

Young child, teen, either way.
I lived in a no censorship house and had teenage older brothers, so I probably saw things you didn't.
Saw The Wall when I was ten.

Spring cleaning.
Wow! A lot to do...
Interesting. I had no idea a bookcase could lean at such an angle without collapsing.
A smarter person might leave that alone.
Alas, I'm not that smarter person...
@CY:
... meh.
Can't say I ever cared for it.
That said, it's very true that you saw things I didn't at that point.
I was never really interested in doing so... but that's just me. :)
No, but seriously, animated things of various kinds have consistently been my favorite, over-all, whether silly "kids" cartoon-style things, 'mature' animated pieces, or that all-encompassing "genre" of anime. I do enjoy other more "genre-like" genres, including comedy, romance, buddy-cop, machismo (or whatever the Schwarzeneger films and their ilk would be called), martial arts, superhero, slice-of-life, fantasy, sci-fi, space opera, drama, action, ensemble, family fil- ... daggummit-these-are-all-still-animated/anime...
Hmp: kept a record all some of my attempts to submit this post, this time...

FEAR 2: Reborn finished. Apparently I was stuck three encounters from the finish since forever, with the first of them being much harder (shielded power armor) than the later two...
Ok, actually, the second fight also involves a powered armor but I was using laser against it which (according to the wiki) passes through its shield...

It is sort of snowing.
I have just watched 'Trainspotting 2'
I have also just had to cope with a train journey with three women skreeching like banshees across the corridor from me. Vodka tends to have that effect, and they were swigging it straight from the bottle, the degenerates.

The forever was shorter than I thought, tough. I noticed that I bought both FEARs a year and a few weeks ago. It must have been a bit before I finished first part, expansion, and second part, and started Reborn.

Job hunting is the single most annoying thing on earth, particularly when you are specialized in a field you are no longer medically capable of continuing in.

That's not a day I look forward to, being a small guy in a physically demanding field.
Best of luck! If you need someone to pose as a previous employer just make sure I get some notes to go off of.
Works best if I don't need to have any sort of computer knowledge whatsoever.
