Good late afternoon DTR! Got back from southern Indiana about noon today. I love that part of the state this time of year. Had a good time tailgating yesterday. Had a few beers, cooked out, and tried out the beer pong table a couple times. Had a good time, Indiana won. GF got a little intoxicated but was ok. Had to take her to the ER late last night, she had a severe allergic reaction to something in the hotel room. She rashed up really bad and was having a hard time breathing. She wasn't drunk at all when this happened either. It was kinda scary to me, in the 4 yrs of being with her I haven't seen her react that bad to anything and I haven't had to take her to the ER either. She got steroid and breathing treatments and a shot of some very strong benadryl stuff. She's alot better today and is at home resting now. Gonna relax tonight, truck is plugged in for the night and we're suppose to get rain/snow and possibly just snow fluries tomorrow. Thanks Northerners for finally send the snow my way, been waitin a while for it.

Mad, sounds like you had a rough time. I've got plenty of cold beer if you need one.

TRad, nice picture!

Red, I think we need to move the janitors Beam, I think thats the reason I keep find him face down and stuck in the garbage can.

Thanks, me too! It's hard to figure out what did it because she is allergic to EVERYTHING, and I mean it. She thinks it might be the linens on the hotel bed, she is allergic to a few types of fabric softeners and soaps. Or if there was anymold in the hotel that could have triggered it too. Who knows what it was. I know it wasn't the pillows because she didn't sleep on the hotel pillows, she already knows she's allergic to some of them.

Sure is quiet around here. I guess the party animals just can't handle the heat so it's the kitchen not.

Yeah it's been very quiet lately in the breakroom. The janitor doesn't need washing again, I just powerwashed, simple greened, and degreased him last week, he should be good till almost thanksgiving. So we know its not the smell from him keepin people out.

They may be scared off by the alternative to the timeout can. I just checked and Cin is still going strong. Poor Scott......

Evening. Sounds like everyone is alive and busy. Good sign.

Glad you're finally moved hat. For better or worse.

No, that's not it. I was frustrated and stressed quite a bit, and did get a little short with a few people, but I can handle my emotions and be a civil, respectful professional. When the bad man comes out, it is not pretty. This is not me bragging, I don't enjoy it. It does make crap happen in a hurry, tho.

Yep. Yes. (yes, almost, yes!) I finished filling in the Panama Canal, and I had to get a few more fittings for my lines. Still setting the shed up.

I'll take one. I'm going to nights this week, so no evening drinking...

Didn't have any OL problems, she was a champ! I could not have done it with out her.

I'm beat again. Did good today, have another fun filled day ahead of me.

Went to a resturant, all you can eat oysters tonight for dinner, I'm stuffed. They were good, too. I almost ate them out of them.

Ok, going to bed.

The leaves are brown
Falling from the trees
And onto the ground

The sky is all gray
And the weather is rude
But that is okay
It simply suits my mood

The owners, they hate me
My supervisor berates me
And thinks of me as her toy
But that is okay
I'm just her whipping boy





Evenin' coffee an' sweet tea is ready. No goodies... it ain't my job!
