blessingx Posted May 13, 2012 Report Share Posted May 13, 2012 (edited) Besides work haven't made it out of the house a lot lately, but to celebrate Mother's Day took the family to Picchetti Winery in the Santa Cruz Foothills. Found a nice meadow in the neighboring open space reserve for a little picnic. Was great. No gators though.

skullguise Posted May 14, 2012 Report Share Posted May 14, 2012 Did the Mother's Day celebration with my in-laws who were up for my wife's Bat-Mitzvah, we all went (with my niece on my wife's side) to a very nice brunch in Cambridge, MA. Then dropped off the in-laws at the airport, and off a bit to the North End of BostonFinally, home and dinner (fresh homemade pasta for wife and son, sliced Hot Sopresatta and cheese for me....yummage). It was a very nice day, except for one part where I slightly pissed off my wife. Almost 17 years of marriage, and I'm still not fully trained.....

acidbasement Posted May 14, 2012 Report Share Posted May 14, 2012 I pulled about 40 wood ticks off the dogs last night. They died in the flames (one more advantage to having a wood stove in the house). This year's tick season is brutal. I'm about to leave on the train for a few days in Edmonton. I've got to pull something out of my arse for a meeting with my graduate supervisor tomorrow morning, but after that I'm looking forward to re-visiting some of my old haunts in the university area. I might try to buy an old discman from a guy there as well, if I can get in touch with him - he was selling a D-777 last I checked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ujamerstand Posted May 15, 2012 Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 Went to Canadian Tire today to pick up a cordless phone that doesn't suck. Saw a whole line of the same 1.9ghz suckery at the store. Left disappointed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aura Posted May 15, 2012 Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 Scheduled an eye appointment for Thursday afternoon. Not related to the whole "bug-flew-in-eye-and-fucked-my-cornea's-shit-up" fiasco. I'm going to switch back to glasses after going with contacts exclusively for the last 11-12 years. Might split time between the two, but I hope to really use the glasses more because I'm getting tired of contacts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raffy Posted May 16, 2012 Report Share Posted May 16, 2012 Cooking a pork shoulder on the grill (rottiserie) at my best friends house. Having a bottle share while we wait...so far we've had Heady Topper. It's nice to relax like this after a long day at work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shellylh Posted May 16, 2012 Report Share Posted May 16, 2012 Sounds fun Raffy! Congrat Chris! Losing weight is a real bitch if you don't like starving. Saw this on the way home today. Trucks and trees don't mix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wmcmanus Posted May 16, 2012 Report Share Posted May 16, 2012 ^ He must have really been moving to cause that much damage. My guess is he's not an owner/operator! I've found that I really have to be careful not to get too far off of the interstate system in my motorhome which is 13'2" high (built on a Volvo semi truck chassis). Plus, it's 84 feet long counting the trailer which is almost always attached. So I don't have nearly the tight turning radius that these guys do. That, and they couldn't give a shit if they scratch up anything but their cabs, and that goes even for the owner/operators. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wmcmanus Posted May 16, 2012 Report Share Posted May 16, 2012 (edited) There's a falling asleep at the wheel joke here somewhere. Hey!!! That had nothing to do with tree branches!!! I forget what some of you people know sometimes... too funny. I was wearing my UE10s and listening to an unfamiliar Beatles song. The last thing I remember, prior to seeing the turn that I could not possibly make... was that I was wondering to myself, "Is that George singing the lead? What a shame... they really bullied him around a lot... he being the youngest... never got his fair share of the spotlight... it was always John and Paul..."

HeadphoneAddict Posted May 16, 2012 Report Share Posted May 16, 2012 Got on the scale and saw a number below 240 lbs for the first time in 7 months or so. Progress. Good job! I was over 260 lbs in october and I'm below 215 now. My goal is 200, but it's going slower now. It's not easy if you have the wrong metabolism.

Dreadhead Posted May 16, 2012 Report Share Posted May 16, 2012 Good work Larry glad to see you're keeping it up. Yes my metabolism, appetite and height combination is a recipe for being a huge guy but I'm glad to be finally progressing back to where I want to be. The goal is 210 which isn't too bad at 6'5", I'd like lower but I'd be happy there. Wayne: Lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knuckledragger Posted May 16, 2012 Report Share Posted May 16, 2012 Last night I found out that a woman I've known since second grade died of cancer earlier this year. She was scarcely a month older than myself. She left behind her husband and two young children. I hadn't seen her in years, but I'm pretty saddened by the news.

Salt Peanuts Posted May 17, 2012 Report Share Posted May 17, 2012 Came home to find my daughter all scratched up on side of her head/face from a fall she had while running. I know it looks a lot worse than it actually is, but still breaks my heart to see her all scratched up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
