Yikes... that translates to something unspeakably filthy. Shame on you, sir! *slap*
Whoa, hey now. It's not like she asked him to get a triple-triple for her and he came back with a double-double.
That will start feuds that would make the Hatfields and McCoys step back and say "OK, everyone should just calm down a bit".
Got a slight raise today.
Now I can afford to see Mad Max some more!

I've spent most of the morning supporting Facebook. That is just the strangest damn thing I've ever done in the workplace.

I'll have to check when I get home.
My washing machine is broken too. Service call would mount to at least €85. I'd love to DIMyself but I have no clue what's broken or how to repair it. Plus, no space to take it apart in a small apartment. So....yeah, €350+ it'll be. Sigh.
Got to go fishing today at Chapman's Landing on the Shenandoah River . The river was too muddy and fast to catch anything, but this looks like a great spot. I'll be back.
Yeah, the video's vertical. I took it with my phone. Sue me.

I never think to do that in the heat of the momentLuckily, there's a little known trick around this.

The heat of the moment where the water is too muddy to even remotely standing a chance of getting a fish to strike? I know, it's adrenaline-pumped non-stop action from the word "go," amirite?I never think to do that in the heat of the moment
Nobody does. It usually results with babies.I never think to do that in the heat of the moment
My bobber kept jiggling. I coulda got a bite at any minute, yo.The heat of the moment where the water is too muddy to even remotely standing a chance of getting a fish to strike? I know, it's adrenaline-pumped non-stop action from the word "go," amirite?
But you're right. The water was way too muddy, and moving much too fast due to the rain the day before. I mostly was going out to check the site out. And from what I've seen, it looks like an ideal place to catch some fish when the river conditions are better. There's a nice slow-moving eddy right at the fishing site that I'm sure will be productive.

I read this as "boober kept jiggling" and thought I was in the Halforums Academy 2 thread for a moment.
That's just where I get my lawyers. If things get too tough, I get Thor to bring the hammer down.
His retainer's a killer, though.

You should also include in your complaint all the times he grabbed your ass without asking.
Which you'd know about if you KEPT UP WITH HFA.
Just because it's unsolicited doesn't mean it's unwanted
Perhaps this will stick in your mind.I never think to do that in the heat of the moment

I had a very vivid dream last night. Like weirdly vivid. I'm not saying much about what it is because...
I told a friend about it and he said, "Whoa. That sounds like it would make an awesome movie. Paul Giamatti would fit perfectly in that role."
And he's right. So I looked online and there's never been anything like it. So now I'm going to learn how to write a screenplay because I think the idea is just that good. I even have a couple tentative titles. "The Last Laugh" or "The Best Medicine" are the two that stand out.
Oh, and if any of you have ANY screenwriting capability, hit me up. I'll pitch it to you and see what you think.

I picked up a transcript yesterday at my Alma-mater. The kid behind the counter asked me if I was a recent grad... Really? I've been out of college for 21 years now.
So I guess it means I still look a little bit young to a college kid.

Well, it's actually not all that uncommon these days for older people to go back to college. There's even a meme about it.
Yay. AAA issued a $49 refund for my canceled membership. Should hit my bank account by Friday.
Boo. Didn't refund the "same day service fee" of $35, even though no service was performed the day I signed up. Turns out the basic fee for a service call in that area is higher than the same day fee, and the refund I am getting could have been less.
