Meh. I haven't flown in 5 or 6 years, so I really can't compare it. Wasn't too bad, just annoying. I didn't even get groped.Jess and I are getting ready to board.How was security?They didn't take naughty pictures of you either?
I tend to get selected for supposedly random things like UAs and extra security screening.
For future reference, just in case you are about to be screened by a good looking TSA agent, use this line -

You get the wand and not the gloves? Lucky!

Went in to the new store to do some work today and noticed that somebody apparently attacked the toilet with a hammer. A big chunk was knocked out of the pedestal below the bowl. Then I started looking further. Nothing could have dropped onto it because it's below the bowl. If somebody had hit it, the pieces should have been inside the base instead of all over the floor. And what's that spatter on the wall and the undersides of the bowl and tank? Could it be...?
I think the side of our toilet blew out. Somehow. Can it do that?
Seriously, it sounds like the water in the trap of the toilet froze, expanded, and blew out the side of the trap. Was the heat off during the winter?
Who?
O.O
I'm quite curious.
Umm, about the structural failure that is.
Who what?
I got nekkid scanned on our Memorial Day weekend trip on the way down in the Philly airport. Then again, when I left for Norfolk on the 31st, I was once again scanned in the Philly airport.Meh.

Why, who doesn't, and who?Actually, believe it or not, i like most things. I am working on a hateratin primer for my blog that I will link here when done. But my top 3 hates are Whedon, Facebook, and Alton Brown.You hate everything, don't you? Why are you even on the interweb? (Where is your secret bunker?)aaaaarrrrgghh!!Quiet day.It's because everyone is basking in the glory of Whedon.1- he is jarringly unoriginal, and incredibly bad at filing the serial numbers off the anime he watches before coming up with an idea for a "new" series.
2- it is indeed the most insidiously inescapable site ever, and it is slowly taking over our lives! And 3 - he is a chef and food critic who had his own inexplicably popular show for a while, my thankless roomies would eat my lovingly crafted dinner whilst proclaiming that Alton Brown could have done it better, earning my eternal enemnity.
1) You're thinking about Disney.
2) One of us!3) Alton would've probably had b&$~&-slapped your roomies for the comments. He's cool like that. (Any cook that integrates Monty Python and recipes will never fall from my grace.)
stupidly annoying day at work
I think I will drown it in Apfelwein
*blink*
Fresh outta work, headed to gym. The good thing about iBorg is I can keep up with posts ( even if it's a little much to adjutate the battle going on in my PbP). Saves time later as I try to untangle half-a-dozen mounted charges and several high-level spell effects .

Your EBS Sleep-phase-walking Friend,

I'm such a naughty treant -
So, I informed them that I would give HR a heads up since that type of behavior can't be tolerated. And I would look for an alternate spot.
Boy, they didn't want me to contact HR. (Which I did already.) Sounds like their cover story may have been slightly exaggerated... Smelled that a mile away.

Well, I'm not on Facebook. I've just been busy doing stuff around the house. Lots of errands to do today. Since my family has this really annoying habit of wanting food to eat. Every day too! ;P

every day? that's going to far. Don't spoil them that way or they will demand food several times a day ;-)

Guy had a heart attack on my flight. Stuck in Minneapolis for three hours, missed my connecting flight. New connecting flight is an additional hour late. I'm going to be getting on an airplane around the time that I had planned on being AT HOME tonight, with a two-hour flight and a two-hour drive still to go. Not cool.Dude, you have the WORST luck. >_<
Don't you think the guy who had the heart attack had worse luck than Shiny?
haaaassss ssssooooommmmeeeeeoooonnneee caaaaassssstttt ssssllllooooowwwww oooonnnnn ttthhhhheeeee thhhhrrreeeeeaaaaaaaddddd ?????????
It is gorgeous perfect weather outside. I hate it. Every time I set foot outside I start sneezing. And everyone want to be outside all the time, kidlet included so I know I'll have to sit out for a good long time after I pick him up from school. I need a bubble. That way I can enjoy the outdoors without interacting with it. ;)
, Mother Fuddruckers.
My skin's all crawly. It's kind of cool. The cats are seriously alarmed by my Barry White voice though.
Allergies? Concrud?
::Dons gas mask and full body suit before attempting to inflate PMG-sized sterile bubble::
I believe I may have licked one too many doorknobs at PaizoCon.
I thought acid was delivered on blotter paper, not doorknobs. You kids these days, sheesh.
Pho' is a great comfort food. Now, please eat it in your bubble.
Oh man sm is the best. She brought me BttH for lunch. Now my outside is all crawly but my inside is all warm and snuggly.
FIFY
Remember you are in the FAWTL thread, so we have to go there. It's in our charter.

One to treat the outside and one to treat the inside. This follows the sound principle: The whole man is sick; the whole man must be treated.
Operation: Viral Vector Seattle was a success!

You want some con crud? I guess PMG can cough on a doorknob and mail it to you.

So, there was a thing, and it fell through, but we're going with a backup plan (superior to the original plan, IMO).
Long story short, Freehold (and other long-time FaWTLies who *ahem* don't use Facebook) please contact me.
Newcomers to FaWTL, we love you, and hope to get you involved in next year's festivities. :D

I believe I may have licked one too many doorknobs at PaizoCon.I'm starting to feel a little rough as well. It's all Jess's fault.
Nooooooooooooooooo!
*sigh* If my suspicions are correct and I contracted this foul illness on my way back from my brother's wedding, the incubation period is about three days. :(

I have drugs. And tequila. I'll burn this bugger out before it gets me.

I think the side of our toilet blew out. Somehow. Can it do that?
Did you call your local municipality to see if they were doing any sewer work in your area? Sometimes that can cause build up of pressure (gas and/or liquids) while they're working.
Is it just a clean hole in the bowl wall or are there cracks leading away to the floor? Sometimes the bolts that bolt the toilet to the sewer pipe flange in the floor are overtightened by the last person to work on/install it. That can cause stress cracks that give out when too much water pressure hits it or the toilet shifts under any significant weight.
(I am/was never a plumber, but I used to do some rehab work eons ago.)
We figured it out. RotoRooter owes the landlord a new toilet. They were snaking the neighbor's toilet and came up into ours and blew out the side of the tank!
He's talking with them now about them paying for a new toilet, but hopefully we won't have to flip the bill either way. :)
New store looks great too. We keep meaning to put up pictures, but we can't find the attachment that adapts it for the computer. :\
