Pfff, people care too much, the day I got my wisdom teeth pulled I did deadlifts and squats, heck, the day I got a throat surgery I did bench presses and pull overs and went to work. And I never take painkillers, ever.   :p  :p

I gazed at the dead, and for one dark moment I saw a banquet.

Respect...the only pain i can not endure is in my mouth...well that has changed a bit. but still. But no painkillers? Ugh...

 

What did i today, nothing, just preventing my dad from chokeing (again -.-) taking care of some stray cats..the usual..and now..drinking! :dancing:

The pain I can't stand at all is headache, it interferes with my sleep and makes me feel desperate - fortunately headache is an extremely rare occurrence for me. (Hats off to those who have to deal with migraine) Any other kind of pain is quite tolerable, and I've had my fair share of injuries.

I hope you don't mind my asking, but whaaaa? Does he have a condition that impedes his ability to swallow?

Interesting, headaches are no business for me, i can deal with them very well. Hard migrane attacks like i had in the past are difficult to handle...but the moment it goes into my mouth i´m a terrible "****" (no offense to pussies :p ) i can deal with all but my mouth is something other...but then i have a real phobia of dentists i guess....i have less fear from death than from a dentist lol. Anesthesia helps.

He suffers from COPD. And a lot more things. Makes my day interesting.

Hey, I just realized I'm talking to a fellow countryman! Servus!  :w00t:

As i said, he suffers from COPD, which is nasty on it´s own. But he is also "that old guy" meaning he does what he wants..smoking like a volcano, and well coughing fits aside, stuffing himself full with ****y treats despite diabetes (which ironicaly is still fine). etc..well things get stuck. >.< It´s really like taking care of a child, a child that knows very well what it does :p I can´t blame him.

Servus, wo kommst denn her? ;)

I'm sorry for your father - my family has the same mindset, living totally unhealthily but at the same time being completely aware of it. I'll never understand those people....

Aus dem tiefsten, dunkelsten Eck vom Mühlviertel.  ;) Du?

Don´t feel sorry o.O He has a lot of health problems, and tries to just enjoy life..i can understand that ;)

Well this is awkward...

 

A contract gig I was working last year finally got back in touch with me asking if I was still looking for something permanent... just as I was promoted in my current full-time job. I find myself at a crossroad; I imagine I would get paid roughly the same at both gigs, but I fought tooth and nail not only just to get to where I am at the company I'm at now, but just to get hired there in the first place. I'm working at a much bigger company right now, but I still enjoy the atmosphere of where I work nonetheless. On the other hand, the other job was in Calabasas/Woodland Hills  area where I could still rent a room from my parents, whereas now I have to commute from a crappy apartment in Downtown LA to Culver City.

“Political philosophers have often pointed out that in wartime, the citizen, the male citizen at least, loses one of his most basic rights, his right to life; and this has been true ever since the French Revolution and the invention of conscription, now an almost universally accepted principle. But these same philosophers have rarely noted that the citizen in question simultaneously loses another right, one just as basic and perhaps even more vital for his conception of himself as a civilized human being: the right not to kill.”

"The chancellor, the late chancellor, was only partly correct. He was obsolete. But so is the State, the entity he worshipped. Any state, entity, or ideology becomes obsolete when it stockpiles the wrong weapons: when it captures territories, but not minds; when it enslaves millions, but convinces nobody. When it is naked, yet puts on armor and calls it faith, while in the Eyes of God it has no faith at all. Any state, any entity, any ideology that fails to recognize the worth, the dignity, the rights of Man...that state is obsolete."

I vote Calabasas. 

All Stop. On Screen.

I vote whatever feels more secure to you.

"only when you no-life you can exist forever, because what does not live cannot die."

My vote would be to stay where you are. It sounds like it has a higher ceiling and the other job is a lateral move at best. I get the commute thing, I drive 45-60 minutes each way. :( 

I played 3 games of hockey in a row.  Everything hurts.

 

Shame that you couldn't have keep some of those - would have made a great conversation piece for your hotel ....

 

Would love to see more pictures of the hotel too.  :)

 

 

 

Sitting in the bus. 7 hours ride just started so might as well use the bus wifi to upload a few pics.

Rest of the uploads failed... meh. Another time

Unobtrusively informing you about my new ebook (which you should feel free to read and shower with praise).

Dig the glass floor that looks down into the garden. That's part of an old aqueduct?

Old potter's / ceramics workshop most likely

Looks pretty nice.

I'm just waking up after being up well through the night and into the morning saying goodbye to a very good friend, and my main dance partner, who is sadly moving away. Much drink was had and goodtimes, we did a pub crawl and then sat around and talked into the wee hours and got a little teary at her leaving, and she's safely on her way today.

Pub crawls always have a way of making a situation better, you seem like a good friend to your lady friends. That's an admirable quality  :thumbsup:

 

What type of dancing do you do ?
