  1. Changed the headlight glass on my car. A stone had cracked the glass and it was gathering moisture inside it due to the last few days wet weather. Was relatively easy, though a bit fiddly. One of the connectors was stuck and the glue that held it to the headlight unit came loose so I had to glue it back into place.

     

    Is there an English word for when you get damage on your windshield/headlight glass from stones? There is for Swedish and German as far as I know, but I'm drawing a blank in my head when I try to remember anything for English.

  2. While my neighbours are decidedly closer, I can still pump up the volume while looking at the sunset! It's awesome, and I have a lake really close by :)  But not today, the weather is ****, I feel like ****, having worked with a fever and I've been annoyed at all the lazy bastards at work.

  3. Yeah, I really like them too. :(

     

    Like 10 years ago, though a wild bee community had found an area between an outer wall and an inner wall near the roof, and then I heard tiny chewing sounds inside the wall, no kidding!

    When I noticed that what I feared was indeed true, I had to phone experts to take care of that hive of thousands of individuals. This one was merely 200-300, as a rough estimate.

     

    Our planet can never have enough bees - they are almost endangered and absolutely essential to our survival.

     

    I've been considering getting a hive or two actually. An old neighbour here used to keep bees but since she stopped from old age, I thought I'd pick it up.

  4. Whelp... My next few weeks are going to be INSANE in the membrane.

     

    I've been moved back to Ames for work, But the other person who worked with me turned in her two weeks. Yesterday was her last day. 

     

    So now I'm the only person to run this place from 730 to 530 m-f and 9-12 on saturday. Plus anything extra to ensure I'm ready for the next day.

     

    This is going to be unique.

     

    You have all my sympathies, atleast I only have to lift stuff and drop it in the right place and facing. :p

  5. Yesterday I went to a "nostalgia meet" with my father, was nice, saw a few really awesome old cars, a DeSoto business coupe, and quite a few old american cars. The music was being played way too loud though, but was fun ogling cute girls dancing.

     

    Went fishing with a friend from work today, we got started later than we wanted, but went on to catch a few good ones. We did catch alot of common roach that we used as bait for pike and perch. Caught two pike, roughly 2 kilos on the first one and 2.5 on the second one. We had two pike that managed to get away, but they also might have been the same ones we caught. We managed to hook one perch that we took for eating later.

     

    Nice couple of days to get some energy for the coming week, with extra long workdays, and I have one hell of a sunburn. :D

  6. I am loving Spotify, none of the radio stations around here play what I like to listen to, so its nice that I can throw on some Gloryhammer or Dethklok, the Star Wars score, or some Tchaikovsky while I'm in the car, depending on my mood.

     

    I like it too, I was listening to Spotify's recommendations, and found one of the songs(Genitorturers - Lecher Bitch) I recognized from the Anarch bar in Vampire Bloodlines. Had to reinstall it ofcourse. :)

  7. Sounds like you might need to go a little Jimmy Hoffa on your employers.   :devil:

     

    Spoke to the union and our bosses, and then their bosses. The top brass recommended we get 2h'rs paid time to our local boss, because of our lost time, people missed the bus and the fact our employer did the search erroneously since they checked our personal belongings - big nono, if you had something in your bags that was private or embarrassing you would've had to show all your coworkers that. They are only allowed to check us inside the actual workplace not after we've picked up our personal affects.

     

    I'd insert a success kid here, but I've got to get going. :D

  8. Whoa, you guys have forced body searches?

    Unless your job is prison inmate this is not cool.

    Yeah, there is a possibility of thievery at my workplace, and it's not impossible that someone has done just that. We also have camera surveillance.

     

    Wich is why I don't think that there is a reason for everyone at work to be searched, it's a violation of my person. I would'nt complain if it were that someone had accused me specifically of stealing or if they thought they had seen something suspicious on a camera feed, but no - they searched everyone.

     

    And it's really not ****ing okay for this to happen on MY time, not to mention that they did it in such an amateurish way. If anyone had stolen something they had dozens of opportunities to ditch their loot.

  9. Congratulations Enoch!

     

    So we had a forced bodysearch after work today, don't know why, don't care to be honest, what I do care about is that those mother****ing rentacop cumguzzlers searching everyone cost me 20 minutes of my free time. I'm going to check tomorrow when we have the daily info meeting if we're getting paid for that time, or I'm raising ****ing hell. And then quitting.

  10. So, the weather this week was "great" according to common conception, summer warmth and sun, wich translates to horrid in my world. I've been sweating my arse of every day at work, I drank atleast 4 litres every day and still managed to get dehydrated and headaches every day.

     

    Plus, my mate that drives me and a couple of others to work in my car, managed to dent it when reversing out of my driveway. My front bumper has been pushed about one inch inwards, wich means I'm ****ing pissed of at him - yet I can't blame him entirely, because **** happens. He did'nt do it on purpose, but I still have a dented car that was previously a pristine car. Oh, speaking of fecal matter, what he managed to hit was the drainage pipe for our sewage, he managed to lift it out of it's socket in the tank - so I have to dig it up and put it back in position. About one metre deep. -.-

  11. The doctors here become extremely annoyed if you come there with something trivial, like a back ache or blocked ear, so I've bought a home cleaning kit. Works decently, but I try to use it preventively instead, it took quite alot of tries to get a proper blockage out.

  12. i finally got a chance to go to the doctor to clean my clogged ear... i can hear again!

     

    Been there, I know how annoying it is, I've normally only got one functioning ear and when it clogs up I can't hear anything. It's one hell of a relief when it comes out!

  13. Sigh. My cat passed away this morning despite €900 worth of tests and treatments and my niece is in the hospital artificially kept in a coma to combat pneumonia right after her liver transplant.

     

    Sincerely, this week can go screw itself up the rectum with a spiked rod smeared with burning ghost pepper sauce. Repeatedly. :down:

     

    My condolences TN, hope your niece gets better soon!

  14. I suppose it could be fun to play an airheaded incredibly naive and kind person. A bimbo... Sorry, paladin! :p

     

    On a more serious note, I can't figure out any motivation for the person or anything interesting to work with, I need something to work from. This is why I love Eon and Rogue Trader. Eon has several random tables for you to work out what happened to your character that you can build on, and Rogue Trader has similar things to work with. 5'th edition is'nt good enough on that point.

     

    On another note, I much prefer 3.5 to 5E, especially how skills worked. The feats are better in 5E, I'll give it that. And druids are horribly imbalanced.

     

    Edit; I found out that a couple of my friends have gone full munchkin with their characters. I despise powergaming, it ruins so much of the feeling.

  15. Been trying to think up a character for tomorrows PnP session, we're starting Tyranny of Dragons, a D&D5ed campaign, and I've got no ****ing ideas. My brain is completely empty of any ideas. Nothing at all, not even a hint of a good base for a character is hiding itself there. I can't even think of an appealing class or race and work from there. I'm to invested in the ones I've got going already.
