Cue a sort of fast food take on Romeo and Juliet. With, er, reptiles.... Is this the plot of your next book? Yeah, KaineParker's my new agent. Alright then, can you bang out a script for a romantic comedy based on the life of Eva Braun? Include plenty of Nazi jokes and leave the possibility of Hitler being gay open. If successful, I'll pitch a sequel involving Zombies and strippers, possibly with musical elements. And it needs to have a topless scene every 10 pages. Victor of the 5 year fan fic competition!

I will lose another 70lbs before the end of next February. I've stopped being the mopey dopey loser who's letting himself go downhill. I might still be a pathetic loser, but I'll be a pathetic loser who'll look good in a muscle shirt again before he's 46. 10 Fionavar's Holliday Wishes to all members of our online community: Happy Holidays Join the revelry at the Obsidian Plays channel:Obsidian Plays Remembering tarna, Phosphor, Metadigital, and Visceris.

Enoch Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 Today I've become a driving commuter. I'm not entirely happy about the change, but I don't want to be the guy who brings his 6-month-old kid on the subway in rush hour. The youngin' starts at the daycare facility in my office building on Monday, which was enough to convince the Powers That Be to grant me a parking pass for the garage under the building. So today was the dry run. Getting into work was roughly 15 minutes faster than the walk/subway I used to do, but it's probably unrealistic to project that I'll consistently be leaving the house this early once I'm toting the little one along. And the return trip will likely be in the thick of the afternoon rush, regardless. (The garage is set up in "departure zones" so that they can fit the maximum number of vehicles in. I got a permit for a 4:30 departure zone, which means that I double park into a big block of cars that all should be leaving at around 4:30.) What I'm going to need to account for is the degree to which this reduces the physical activity I get in the course of my daily life. I had been walking about 2 miles every day as part of my commute. I've never been the sort of person to seek out exercise for the sake of exercise. That might have to change soon if I want to maintain my present only-moderately-doughy physique. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurlshort Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 Ah, the wonderful life of working parents. Every morning I get up, make lunches for my two kids, wolf down breakfast, shower and get dressed, make two chocolate milks for the kids, poke and prod at my son until he is dressed while my wife handles the daughter, get him to the bathroom, help him brush, carry him to the car in a blanket, then load up the car, head over to grandma's, unload the kids and all their stuff, get back in the car, drop wife off at work, then drive myself to work. It ain't always pretty, but we get it done. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nonek Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 Just returned from the Lakes and a self imposed media blackout, may I be so humble as to recommend this to all holidaying forum goers, quiet contemplation, good conversation, an interesting collection of reading matter, fine vittles, and a daily wander lonely as a cloud over simply breathtaking scenery. It was the very definition of relaxation and the lack of all electronic communications devices certainly added to that, one forgets how demanding and shackling these things are. 1 Quite an experience to live in misery isn't it? That's what it is to be married with children.I've seen things you people can't even imagine. Pearly Kings glittering on the Elephant and Castle, Morris Men dancing 'til the last light of midsummer. I watched Druid fires burning in the ruins of Stonehenge, and Yorkshiremen gurning for prizes. All these things will be lost in time, like alopecia on a skinhead. Time for tiffin. Tea for the teapot!

Woldan Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 (edited) Went cycling, it was cold, windy, foggy, and very wet. And I totally crashed, funnily at the least dangerous part of my route. Don't know what happened, suddenly at 50 km/h or so on the straight my front wheel was instantly thrown to the right and before I could do any counter steering or breaking I was already doing somersaults down a slope into the woods. Luckily I didn't hit a tree, but the skin on my legs and arms itches and burns because a million nettles cushioned my fall. I could drive back home so I guess I have not broken any bones.Funny, I can have a million accidents but I never get hurt, not even a bruise or a scratch. My bike however, front brake is damaged, handlebar is bent, chain is damaged and I think my front wheel is losing air. I'm not sure what caused the accident but it could have been a technical defect. Very strange. Edited September 12, 2014 by Woldan I gazed at the dead, and for one dark moment I saw a banquet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then suddenly my front wheel slips away to the right, I go off of the bike, got stuck between handlebar and brakes and that's the story of how I broke my hand.

I did that today, when I slipped off the road I stood up and got my hands off the handlebar. Looking at the bent handlebar I'm sure I would have at least twisted my wrists.

Lexx Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 Yeah, that would have saved my hand. I'll do it next time, if I can react fast enough. PS: It's 10 weeks now. My hand is in approx 90% of the condition it was before the accident. It's still swollen, but I can move all my fingers to a fist again. Obviously I still lack the muscle strength of before, but this will come back over time. I've got another date with the doctor next friday, and then hopefully I'll be allowed to get back to work. People in the office probably don't even remember my face... 1 "only when you no-life you can exist forever, because what does not live cannot die."
