ShadySands Posted December 26, 2012 Posted December 26, 2012 Happy Boxing Day and first day of Kwanzaa to those that care to celebrate either Today was back to work for me but, as expected, it's dreadfully slow Free games updated 3/4/21
LadyCrimson Posted December 26, 2012 Posted December 26, 2012 Slept too late. My brain is fuzzy like a well worn carpet. Would like to do some errands but the thought of contending with all the crazy day-after-Xmas deal-shopping people is intimidating. Still have enough catfood so my ankles are safe, and can order a pizza, so I think I'll wait until tomorrow. Sitting around playing video games and watching TV sounds better anyway. “Things are as they are.

Guard Dog Posted December 27, 2012 Posted December 27, 2012 Happy belated B-Day Shady. I've planned out my first two road trips for work next year. Indianapolis and Evansville in January and Little Rock, Jonesboro, Dyersburg, Springfield and Fayetteville in February. Hey Calax, I'll be working in Des Moines and Sioux City this summer . If you're in town and feel like a drive I'll buy you a beer or two. Gonna be a busy year.

Nepenthe Posted December 27, 2012 Posted December 27, 2012 First day back at work after The Event. Was prepared to give in my notice. Turns out there's nobody of rank here. Could've slept last night. Had an entertaining talk with a senior co-worker about the similarities between this place and 1 % gangs, the importance of being a Good Leaver who just haves to give up his bike or pinky as opposed to Bad Leaver, who gets his life ruined. You're a cheery wee bugger, Nep. Have I ever said that? Reapercussions
Kor Qel Droma Posted December 27, 2012 Posted December 27, 2012 I heard on the radio this morning that my hometown is the fifth coldest place in the world at the moment. I can't decide if that's better or worse than being the sixth worst city in the country for crime. 1 Jaguars4ever is still alive. No word of a lie.
alanschu Posted December 27, 2012 Posted December 27, 2012 Edmonton was pretty darn cold the past few days. Mostly insanely annoyed because some guy is half parked in my stall so I can't park my car and plug it in. And the towing service won't tow it because they need BOTH titles in order to authorize moving it. And my condo board is not back until the 28th.
LadyCrimson Posted December 28, 2012 Posted December 28, 2012 It's currently 40F here (830pm). It's soooo cold! ... wat? Didn't feel like killing zombies today so I've been watching hubby kill zombies instead. He's not very good at it, but as always he's entertaining nonetheless. His opinion so far: "It's a little too melee for me." “Things are as they are.

Roxane Posted December 28, 2012 Posted December 28, 2012 I've done some shovel action thanks to the 9" - 10" of snow we got today. My Obsidian Order title really belongs to my cat who is cute since day one and she built her attitude around it.
Kor Qel Droma Posted December 28, 2012 Posted December 28, 2012 -31 here. Earlier this morning it was a nipply -38. It's supposed to warm up to 20 or 17 tomorrow, but it's supposed to be windy, so that'll probably make it feel just as cold. Jaguars4ever is still alive. No word of a lie.

Hurlshort Posted December 28, 2012 Posted December 28, 2012 We are staying in socal right now, and we spent the last day at Universal Studios. I will post pictures and stuff later, but it has been a blast.
LadyCrimson Posted December 28, 2012 Posted December 28, 2012 -degree temps is why I'm never moving North. Heheh. Universal Studios was a lot of fun when I was a kid...haven't been to it in years tho. I'm sure it's vastly different now. Do they still have the Jaws ride? lol “Things are as they are.

Roxane Posted December 28, 2012 Posted December 28, 2012 It's sunny, 23 here. It's a perfect day tp enjoy cross-country skiing after the snowstorm. My Obsidian Order title really belongs to my cat who is cute since day one and she built her attitude around it.
WDeranged Posted December 28, 2012 Posted December 28, 2012 Got a cough, drank half a bottle of Baileys...where the hell does it go?

melkathi Posted December 29, 2012 Posted December 29, 2012 Low ceiling basement. Was absendminded and walked into a low beam. Now my head is bleeding... Ouch. Unobtrusively informing you about my new ebook (which you should feel free to read and shower with praise).
Labadal Posted December 29, 2012 Posted December 29, 2012 I'm up at 3am and still not sleepy. I'll go ask someone in the house to knock me out.
Gorth Posted December 29, 2012 Author Posted December 29, 2012 It's 30 degrees (Celcius) here, waiting for the sun to set a bit before venturing out (and braving the holes in ozone layer) for some shopping Generally just procrastinating and catching up on all the "to-do" stuff that had piled up since last New Year (which was the last time I had some time off from work and didn't travel somewhere). “He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt.

melkathi Posted December 29, 2012 Posted December 29, 2012 I'm up at 3am and still not sleepy. I'll go ask someone in the house to knock me out. Don't ask anyone, Do what I did: walk against a concrete beam Just do at a higher speed than me. I'm still concious so it didn't work...

That's an all or nothing proposition... if it works, it's good.

Deadly_Nightshade Posted December 29, 2012 Posted December 29, 2012 I had a rough night with the girlfriend, not a fight and more dealing with her feeling like **** because of family pressure to break-up -they don't care for me/my family-, but we'll likely be ok. If nothing else we'll go back to being close friends (as we were before we were dating, and what, worst case, we both want to preserve if things don't work out). "Geez. It's like we lost some sort of bet and ended up saddled with a bunch of terrible new posters on this forum." -Hurlshot
