Yeah, I'm not getting another pet until I'm in much better financial shape.

In another parking lot. This time in the rather ironically named town of FairhavenOk, now THAT sounds like a location for a new TV show or RPG game.
Sad when it works for either,... ;P
Or a Lovecraft pastiche
I mean, if I can't even put my clothes on right-side out, how can I have a pet?
| 1 person marked this as a favorite. |
Yeah. One of my driving forces for getting an actual JOB ™ would be to make my pets' lives better. I want them to have a fenced in yard, and doggy day care while I'm working. Oh yeah, and health care if they get sick.
I Just let it go on by and blissfully ignore it like i do the evening news.

Work continues to kick my ass. I've been told to delegate. I tried, and now I have a massive f**#-up to clean up on top of everything else. Yay.
damn. I'm sorry man. Sounds like we need a drink!

Ouch.
Yeah, I feel you. Seems every time I ask/trust/delegate someone else to do something, I end up having to fix that before I can get on with the pile of work I left for me. ;P
This should cheer you up, CH.
Yeek!
AT least for the most part I am master of my domain at work. I have certain things to do, but I am given a lot of leeway as to how to accomplish them.
Saturday Morning in the terrordrome...

One man's terrordrome is another's pleasure dome.
It's the yawndrome, actually. I need to catch up on my homework. But somehow I feel less than enthused.
Yeah. Homework not achieved.
I have a midnight shift. I'll have to try then. I'm not going to get it done this shift. Too busy

Got my general plot laid out and some research done for my historical fiction NaNoWriMo.
Hooray for family drama!
Oh yeah! I should do that this year #goals

Well, my thing has been hammered into shape.
This is why a good editor is worth a pound of gold. My first draft was shite. Not total shite, but there were big hunks stuck to its shoes. Dave was able to give me some good feedback, and the finished product is so much better for being edited thrice.
So hats off to Dave. I'll be posting it on my blog Tuesday along with his inspirational illustration.
What is this in-ter-net that you young folks keep talking about? And this ca-ble thingie?
P.S. - Yes, we now have cable and internet again.

One way to deal with these is to talk to the person who screwed up, and ask him how he would fix it. If he doesn't know, or gives a wrong answer (there may be several wrong answers and several right answers) give him explicit instructions how to fix it, and then tell him to go do it. If he screws that up, give him something else off your plate, something simpler, to do while you fix the screw-up. If he can't do anything you might give him, why is he still working there? :-)

Yes I'm a bit cray cray at the moment
Patrick, the White Jacket Corporation just called you. They said that they have your padded room, your nice white jacket, and your Hannibal Lecter mask ready for you.

Linked for you.
David, do you remember Hirano's?
David, do you remember Hirano's?
Vaguely, yes. It's been a while. Why do you ask?

Another show I need to watch

I was just thinking that if you all make it down here, that we go there for dinner.

Sure thing. I know there was talk of a road trip during our last New York gathering (though I'm not entirely sure that all of us remember the conversation). Plus, if I'm not mistaken, the Lord President Moorluck and the Lady Solnes are moving back to the East Coast as well.
Just make sure I don't drink too much. I have a marked tendency toward "oversharing," and I remember everything.

I do remember the discussion. In vague detail
Maybe this early Spring. Spring Break? I never did get a chance to go on Spring Break. We could end up down in FLA to visit the Moores.

They are moving to Florida. I am not sure if they are as sane as I had thought.
Blustery night in the parking lot

I'm fairly good at forgetting. Which is good in a way. After my tenth hard cider things were a bit spotty. The waffle joint and the walk to the hotel is quite iffy quality , like an old Super 8 reel that sat too long in a humid basement.
I have a three drink max rule myself. I want to enjoy my time.
Three drinks and I might as well just drink water. I need at least six to begin a buzz

Yeah the Green Fairy's blood tastes like licorice. I hate licorice.
Let's chase the Grey Goose instead.

So does anything on the menu interest you?
On the plus side, you all have a designated driver already assigned. There are PLENTY of places to have a drink at here in Savannah. Downtown has a lot of good places to eat as well as a few places that server local micro-brewery beer.
