The Totally Radical Thread for Crotchety Old Bitches

Hmm... depends on the size of the business card you're trying to print out...

And, belated congrats, Pyrite. Was a bit out of it, me: I meant to post, but got attacked by the sleepy. -_-

Congrats, Pyrite!

In other news, I'm off work. Despite eating well and sleeping all right, I woke up with a cold. So I will spend today editing and rewriting my Viking script.

Important public safety anouncement

Gabe: that looks like her. Short shock of blonde hair WH 40k looking kit notably the gun. Though I wish more would show her with her Force Mace aka future billy club of splatter.

Thanks!

Oh jeebuz my dear cobbies. I've really done it.

I want a house and with my impending raise, this is actually a possibility. So dummy me got through my work early and decided to start looking around in the area I would like to move to:

1) See what is potentially out there. 2) If they require any extra education or whatever to qualify for the loan specific to that area, like some forclosures require you go to a credit class before you can even apply to buy.

And I did it.

I found a beautiful 4 bed, 2 bath rock home that is 14 minutes from my work, down the street from what would be my son's school, and even in range of a martial arts academy that has the styles both my son and Aprilla are interested in. It's away from the road with a mostly fenced in yard, and in our budget. The stove and heat are gas so even if the power goes out we can eat and stay warm which is vital in Arkansas winters. Did I mention it has both an outbuilding and a dining room?

I wanna go see it at least. I can't help it.

Aprilla is going to kill me but I want to at least go look. But if I look, I'll probably want it. And I really, really can't help it...

Damnit, it's in walking distance of a freaking park! A park! And the land is just shy of a full acre with a fort in the back...Maybe, just maybe I can sweet talk the Mister into going and seeing it...

And, thus "Operation Wheedle" was put into place.

I don't have a trailer on my car anymore. This is a relief to me and a bigger relief to my car.

Dinner was an extra special circus tonight. Afterward, my 7yo old asked which one was the good brother.

I answered, "There is no good brother"

Oops. Did I say that outloud?

But then he went on to enumerate all the permutations of goodness and badness between them: Good-good, Good-bad, Bad-good, Bad-bad. So I think I'm in the clear on that one.

Hi everyone. tuefel, is is just me or does that lime and cucumber gatorade taste like the vinegar mix used to make cucumber salad?

It was kinda weird. Had a strong cucumber smell but had an odd tangy cucumber flavor. So yeah I guess it was a little vinegary. Won't be drinking that again, that is for sure.

mona, next, introduce them to the chaotic lawful side of things and see where that gets you.

So many new chapters for the cobbies!

Paradox, pics of the new place or it didn't happen ;p

Speaking of stuff what you been up to Doodles?

Lots and lots. Working on my novel (passed the halfway point, heading towards the 3/4!) I launched a new video series (vinevlog! go check it out on youtube!!!) and we are hoping I'll be pregnant with baby#2 soon.

That and the usual of mom stuff, cooking stuff and wifey stuff.

Grats on the first two good luck on the last. This your channel?

yup! i'm doign another video tomorrow night. Wine tasting!

I am not a wine person but the Missus is. I will recommend it to her. Wish I was still in touch my acquittance in Nappa Valley.

Last night I hit the Greenville stop of Mötley Crüe's farewell tour they're doing with Alice Cooper. For like an hour afterwards my eardrums felt like they were brofisting in the middle of my head, and my throat is still sore as hell.

And it was fucking awesome!

The show as a whole was great, but what really got me was that they had the entire drum platform set up on a set of rails going over the stadium, and also rigged so it could rotate independent of movement, at multiple points rotating so that the entire platform was upside-down. I got some pics of the trip over, and videotaped the whole trip back, both on my cell phone, and I'm planning on uploading them somewhere when I get some free time (not this morning).

Today has sucked. Actually this has been a rough week so far. How I feel right now is summed up best in this pic:

What happened?

Here's some photos of my apartment. All of them until the last two are before I brought anything in. The last two I took tonight after some organization. The bookcase is empty in the photos, but it's mostly full now.

Cheers Nohbody!

Beautiful place Paradox! I love your floors!

Mark, you punk. you're a badass. You even on your worst days are Clint Eastwood badass! Have faith man. You can survive anything and still be nifty!

If it's any consolation my dog is trying to get me fired. She kept waking me up off and on, jumping on and off the couch, until finally I got her to just lay down and be still. That's when I realized that the dork was just chilly! As soon as I got her to curl up on my blanket and let me snuggle with her, she just went to sleep. Then she was so comfortable that it was murder getting up this morning. I even had to tuck her back in.

Spoiled furrbaby of mine.

IJ: it's just been a rough week. Mostly a clusterfuck of last minute "oh this has to happen NOW!" and staying later than normal. And physical labor, moving heavy shit around a lot in the hot sun. Plus our stupid pt program of "run every day" is making my knees and ankles hurt like a motherfucker. Just good ol' Army life stress, increasing the aging process by 2 times.

Gabe: Thanks.

Ah, fair enough. What's the situation with your footwear? Do they let you buy proper running shoes? That helped me a lot.

Not had a great week myself, but I've stopped vomitting and I've got pills for the possibly-maybe-ulcer. I missed an appointment to get a blood test with the nurse today, though, as somebody left their dishwasher on and burned their kitchen down at exactly the wrong time.

Jones: yeah, actually I do need to buy some new shoes here soon.

I want to cover all the traffic paths with rugs so I don't get black socks and feet since I probably won't be scrubbing the floor.
