  1. Getting ready to go into work for my last shift at Wally world. While the job and shift suck, the people have been really good to me, and I will miss them. There are some real and honest folks there, of the type I have not really encountered in the workforce before. People who work for next to nothing and don't complain about it. They work hard day in and day out, and just persevere. One gentleman, originally from India, has worked the graveyard shift at WalMart for 11 years, and I've never heard a complaint from him. He always has a smile for everyone, and is the hardest worker I've ever had the privilege to try to keep up with. While working there has seemed like a big step down for me, it has also been a humbling experience that I have learned a great deal from. I will leave with some great lessons and a renewed respect for people with a strong work ethic.
  2. ^ I second this!
  3. X2 Mike! That would be cool to be free of glasses after so many years. Just hoping your vision doesn't get good enough to see the stain where I wet the bed in your guest room!

    And see I thought it was implying that it was a jump on the bandwagon moniker, Like "OK, I ate one too".
  5. Cleaned the aquarium, cleaned and did maintenance on both filters and did a 50% water change, for the last time.
  6. Ouch! At least the eye heals really fast.
  7. Sorry Brent! If it makes you feel any better, I rear-ended someone at Boy Scouts way back in the day. But that's a whole other story. I make light, but I feel your pain. I know what a bad year (or three) can be like. Hang in there buddy, we both must have some good things coming around the corner. Wish you were here for a heartfelt hug!

  9. You say the sweetest things Colin, but I thought we were keeping that on the QT?

    Watson is adorable! I hope he recovers from the cough quickly. I don't see how anyone could be in a bad mood with a Watson to come home to. Congrat!

    Hurrah for Joost finding a great home!
  21. Belated Birthday greetings oh tall one!
  22. Good news overall Al. Hang in there Quest! The newer anti-seizure medications for dogs are pretty good. My Mom had a dog with the same symptoms you described for Quest, except her dog was aware of her surroundings during and immediately after the seizures. It would scare her to death when her back legs would give out, and she always thought we'd be mad that she lost control of her bowels. We'd just hold her and comfort her until the seizure was over. Once the vet prescribed the medication it never happened again, and we had a few more great years with her. Here's hoping you get much more time with Quest!
