shellylh Posted January 29, 2010 Report Posted January 29, 2010 Had a good time hanging out with JP, Al and Ric. It's too bad that you NorCal'ers will be losing JP, he is a cool guy (Al and Ric aren't too bad either ).
Dreadhead Posted January 29, 2010 Report Posted January 29, 2010 I spent most of the day buried under work and comparisons between numerical and experimental results that just didn't make sense. Figured out that the lab that did the experimental work screwed up yet again in their analysis. Fuck they are useless. Also the co-worker (and now member of my staff) that was supposed to do the analysis is useless too. Frustrating day overall. Though I'm off to an awesome dinner in about 45 min.
boomana Posted January 30, 2010 Report Posted January 30, 2010 Had my folks drop Ivan off at the vet for his annual checkup since I had to work. He got so stressed and worked up having to fight the vet and all the techs all day long that his blood pressure shot up to the point his eardrums started to bleed. My poor kitty. Thank god he did some damage to the evil ones in the process. Now he's home, drugged up on sedatives and pain meds. They're waiting for tests results on his thyroid, saying that kind of blood pressure in a young guy, no matter how stressed, just isn't right.
Hopstretch Posted January 30, 2010 Report Posted January 30, 2010 Hired a bodyguard for the wife. Kinda weird. Former South African special forces blah blah blah. If it's going to turn out like The Bodyguard, I hope he's been lifting weights. And I simultaneously deny that I ever said that.
Voltron Posted January 30, 2010 Report Posted January 30, 2010 You only have a few minutes to edit that so think long and hard how it would go over with the "little woman." Hiring a bodyguard for your wife is very weird. How often will he be needed?
Hopstretch Posted January 30, 2010 Report Posted January 30, 2010 How often will he be needed? Hopefully not several times a night.
The Monkey Posted January 30, 2010 Report Posted January 30, 2010 Make him teach you some cool shit (e.g., head control).
sschell Posted January 30, 2010 Report Posted January 30, 2010 Make him teach you some cool shit (e.g., head control). I'd recommend wrist control as well.
Beefy Posted January 30, 2010 Report Posted January 30, 2010 Hopefully not several times a night. Well, at least it would be one less job to do around the house......
Dreadhead Posted January 30, 2010 Report Posted January 30, 2010 Vicki, I am Sorry to hear about Ivan.
Hopstretch Posted January 30, 2010 Report Posted January 30, 2010 Woke up with a headache. I forgot about that part.
Dreadhead Posted January 30, 2010 Report Posted January 30, 2010 Did the body guard deck you when you made advances to his client?
Hopstretch Posted January 30, 2010 Report Posted January 30, 2010 Heh. The client is fully able to repel such advances herself. The headache is attributable to some Belgian monks and Scottish distillers.
Knuckledragger Posted January 30, 2010 Report Posted January 30, 2010 Going to my stepfather's memorial service. \
Dreadhead Posted January 30, 2010 Report Posted January 30, 2010 My condolences KD. Hope everything goes smoothly etc.
Dusty Chalk Posted January 30, 2010 Report Posted January 30, 2010 Condolences from me as well, dude.
The Monkey Posted January 30, 2010 Report Posted January 30, 2010 Condolences KD. This morning, we headed over to the rink and skated around with former Rangers Nick Fotiu and Brian Mullen.
morphsci Posted January 30, 2010 Report Posted January 30, 2010 Sorry for your loss KD. Me: Just took apart our broken treadmill, returned it and picked up its replacement. Waiting for Karen and Peter to return from swimming lessons so we can drive up to Champaign and get some Sashimi.
Aimless1 Posted January 31, 2010 Report Posted January 31, 2010 My wife and I made dinner together ... a first in our 33 years together. Then we went to Cirque Dreams Illumination. First hour was very entertaining. After intermission sucked. Nice night out with my bride.
The Monkey Posted January 31, 2010 Report Posted January 31, 2010 Just got back from a dinner party in NJ. Great group of people with nice kids. Played Just Dance for the Wii. Brilliant.
Beefy Posted January 31, 2010 Report Posted January 31, 2010 My wife and I made dinner together ... a first in our 33 years together. How the fuck does that happen? Then we went to Cirque Dreams Illumination. First hour was very entertaining. After intermission sucked. Nice night out with my bride. Meh, the only Cirque production I have seen was Allegria, and it was pretty boring. Too much pretentious arty crap for this philistine. Glad at least half of yours was good though
nattonrice Posted January 31, 2010 Report Posted January 31, 2010 Almost missed a checkin but was saved by a witty change to an express train hehe Didnt help that I was liquored up at the time...
