I am in mourning too. Buck Compton passed today. God speed, O hero.
I, on the other hand is quite happy. Sweden-Croatia 3-1. And Zlatan Ibrahimovic for once played as well in an international game as he does at club level.
I'm in mourning dude. Davy Jones bit the dust.The tentacled pirate guy?
;-)
The Monkee. No, not Patrick Curtin, he just posted something.

Why oh why do I still insist on being a gentleman to women, when I am not interested in courting them. I still open doors for them, I still push in there chairs at the dinner table. I guess it's just hardwired into my brain.A gentleman is a gentleman regardless. I hold doors open for men as well as women.
Likewise, I think of it as common courtesy.

Being courteous/chivalrous isn't gender-specific. (Or as a friend puts it, "Not all warriors are called 'Sir.'") I often hold the door open for people. :)

I do the same - if you are elderly or pregnant or have children I give up my seat on public transport, if you aren't far behind me I hold the door.
G~~~*#n UPS! Gimme my f$@*ing package you bastards!
Apparently that anti-capitalist goblin still continues to thwart your plans. It may be time to turn him to the undead side.
Swedish door holding etiquette: First person through holds it open, and the people who has it held up for them says "tack." Glares are only given if you don't hold it open. ;)
Quaint nautical etiquette?

I attempt to pull the chair out for the ladies at the dinner table. But I tend to get dirty looks as my timing is off. I'm told I should be doing it to pull the chair away from the table so they can be seated ... but I end up pulling the chair away when they're in the process of seating themselves.
I need to synchronize better.

Time to make the doughnuts
*blink*
Get some sleep dude!
I don't have to be at work until 6pm tomorrow. I'm getting my stuff ready to move in to my new place Friday. Finally have my own space for the first time since I was arrested more than a decade ago. No live in girlfriend, no roomies, nada.
Awesome! Glad to hear some positive stuff is working out for you. May it continue!
Me, I gotta date with a couple dozen muffins, some croissant dough and some dougnuts waiting to be made in an old haunted farmhouse at 3am. Oh joy. Anyone got a handy Protection from poltergeist spell readied? I kid. Well, maybe not totally. Anyhoo, running late, GL on the move HD!

Hey! That's my job! Kali ma!
Bakings done, that's good. Snow turned to rain: even better. One hour left of work ... Schweet!

Moorluck! If you want job connections in Houston, I can talk to my younger brother. He's a bank manager and always claims he can get me a job with one of his business customers. Let me know.
Even with the thing with the zoo I'm not one to put all my eggs in one basket, so I'll take you up on that offer for me and the wife.
Thanks Zombie! :D

Sure thing. He apparently meets lots of business folk through his bank and is always telling me about some of them. Just let me know what kind of businesses and I'll ask him if he knows anyone hiring.

According to package tracking, my latest shipment from Paizo took 2 days to get from Washington State to New Jersey. Yesterday was day 5 since it got to Jersey, and still no sign of it.
That's why I really wish Paizo offered shipment via FedEx - my experience with both the post office and UPS is that they both suck ass.

You didn't know that zombies wore lacy underwear and liked Skittles, did you?

How are you doing today, CJ? I hope that you have a good day today.
Did something to my back yesterday. I'm not accustomed to back pain. Man, it sucks!

Sympathies. Tweeked mine on Sunday and just getting past it. Heat and ibuprofen. Hope you heal fast!
