What MADE your day today?

[Jed_]

After a nearly two year absence, a hot little Asian girl I was friendly with showed up online again and began posting a ton.  I spotted her back in October peeking in, but no posts.

Oh, and my Peruvian and I sat with another couple, also about to get hitched, and listened to a priest talk about sexuality.  You wouldn’t think it, but I found the whole experience delightful, and had to surpress yelling ‘Fuck, yeah!’ every few minutes.  Every time the priest said something about a healthy sex life, I squeezed her hand hard to emphasize my agreement.

Meanwhile the other couple younger than us seemed nervous by the priest’s lecture, the girl in particular looked extremely uncomfortable and stern.  Her fiancé’s strange tickling on her arm did not seem to help her relax at at all.  I couldn’t help thinking about what would relax the poor girl.

Well on our way to 15 people in this house.

Well, I never made it to voir dire, but at least Dallas has upgraded the chairs to decent cushioned theater seats with cupholders, and you're allowed to have drinks in the 'prospective jurors' waiting room.

I read half of a book before they told me "thanks for waiting, we don't need anyone else" just before noon.

Watching my grandson sing and dance in a high school production of Cole Porter's musical Anything Goes.

The joy on his face warmed my cold little heart. He was having a great time and it showed in his expression. I'd share a picture of him in costume, but it would just get removed since he's underage.

That's okay, outside of family, he's just another high school kid like millions of others, but tonight he and the rest of the cast were very very very entertaining.

I just received flowers this morning.  From one of the managing partners of our business.   It is so unexpected because we clash over so many things.  

In his card he wrote how I am "the glue that holds us all together."   Then a "Happy Women's Day, a day late."  


Also, good news is I finished up all my tax work yesterday at work.   All submitted to the accounting firm.   Now employee reviews next week, ugh.


My stepdaughter is home on spring break, my father and his girlfriend came over last night.   We played games, and watched a movie and all just hung out.    Hoping to repeat tonight with everyone, along with Mark's other daughter.   AND she may be bringing over her boyfriend.  She's 16 and never had a boyfriend, this is her first, so kind of a big deal.

Reading "Florida Man..." headlines this morning, looking for story inspiration ideas, and Lulz.

   I've seen most of these before, but there's some hidden gems in there if you're patient, and keep looking...

Led me to some really funny stuff. Woo for introducing me to Florida Man....

About 30 years ago I read in the Baltimore Sun about a man entering the Baltimore City Police Station and placing a baggie of crack cocaine on the front desk.  He explained he wanted help retrieving his $50 from the drug dealer because he changed his mind and wanted to use the money for a prostitute instead.

Wow, that's even better than calling the cops, and offering them gas money!

Work isn’t the only place.  You are an empath Julie.  And for a person with a speech impairment, you are one of the best communicators I have ever known.  We love you.

^ What he said. Yup.

What made my day?

A whole bunch of public and private messages of support and encouragement from you guys.

A load of my colleagues turning out to be aware enough to work together to keep an eye on my well-being all day, even though I didn't broadly advertise last night's events.

Hang in there I. B.  Now if you can just get that much support from the Docs.

Your symptoms sound a lot like a problem I had a few time...optic nerve palsy. Sounds bad, but usually fixes it's self.  It did take two or three months in my case.

One of the optic nerves goes haywire, and the eye ends up moving off center causing vision distortion.  In my case, I'd get double vision.  First time it happened I was driving!

I'm sure they'll have you figured out soon.

[psiberzerker]

I had "Lazy Eye" when I was a kid, but I got better.  I can still cross one eye, and raise the opposite eyebrow for entertainment purposes.

Back on Topic, This.

[ChirpingGirl]

I fuck off for two weeks from this place and people think I'm fuckin' dead. 

I assure you, CJ is alive and well and has 15 people to take care of. Diapers to change, a gigantic house to clean, a disabled woman to help against her will and with Summer coming up there's going to be a lot of changes happening.

It's an interesting time to be CJ.

Thanks to those who expressed concerns. 

[psiberzerker]

Good, I'm glad you're still alive.  I wasn't worried, but I'm not surprised you're just busy.

Love, hugs, kisses, and best wishes.

Nice to see you check in Chirp.  Make sure you take some time for yourself too.

Got a message from my long lost little brother, from Canada.  We're going to nerd out about tabeltop wargaming systems.

We've been working on it since my first system I came up with for green army men, in Corpus Christi, when I was 6.  So, my version of it is a little older than Star Wars (The theatrical release.)  So, the first generation was super simple, adapted from Battleship:  Cut a box in half, and set it up as a screen.  Get out your beach toys, so you can buils fortifications, roads, walls, moats, and trenches.  Then, set up tour Army Men (Cowboys, and Indians, GI Joes, whatever)  Guns (Bows, and arrows, catapults...)  Pointed toward the energy.  

"Ready?"

"Ready."

Take off the boxes, and look at the other side.  Whoever finishes first goes first, take turns calling shots.  Line of Sight ruled, if you can cover it up with the back of the miniature's head, you can shoot it.  "Pew!  Your turn."

He removes his piece, and picks one of yours.  "Pew!  That one."

Rinse/Repeat until one side wins, or the other one gives up.

Back from cruising for a week.  Good time was had by all.

So, the whole boat had a shot at her?  Wish I was there!
