Matthew Duncan Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 Stayed up later then I should have last night playing Black OPs. Just about got a foot into bed phone rings, I've got to go back to work. Spend and hour proving the problem is customer's equipment not ours. Lunch hour drove 1/2 hour to Big Box Lumber Supply. Parts list I Googled doesn't match. Redesign project on the fly and get back to work late. Coworker's service truck overheated. As I tow him back he hits the brakes hard and rips my tow strap in half. 5 minutes before quiting time a Company that colocates in one of our equipment rooms wants access. They are all ready on the way and will be here in a hour. 1 1/2 hours later they arrive. Spend a hour on their cell phone to determine that didn't bring the right parts. 2 1/2 hours after quiting time I get home. Unload the stuff I bought during lunch hour from the Big Box Lumber supply. I discover I forgot a piece and will have to go back tomorrow! Saturday's project that has to be done before Sunday. Wife's cats sitting in the stairway. I tell them "MOVE" and they just sit there (wife's home). So I go to walk around them AND then they decied to move right where I'm steping. Just about fell down the stairs. Prostrate takes time so I decied to sit down and cool down. Ha that feels good...no toilet paper. I haven't eaten since 7 AM and they wife still on the phone yaking. Boy did I ever pick the day to stop drinking Mountain Dew... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sgt. C.J. Sabre, SASS #46770 Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 You can probably take solace that Mr. Murphy doesn't visit you THAT hard very often, so you're clear for the foreseeable future. Maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Velvet Glove, SASS #50276 Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 Ought to tell you something, pard! One glass of Mountain Dew, or any sugared, carbonated, caffeinated drink makes me dizzy, hyper, then I crash. Don't drink often, but when I do, a glass of dry, red wine, a good single malt, or even a glass of sweet-tea don't seem to hit me the same way. This is Headstone's observation, not mine!! LOL! After several more of those, yep, I'll get dizzy, hyper, then crash, but it takes a whole lot more...! Makes you wonder what they REALLY put in "soft" drinks! LOL Velvet Matthew, hope your day ended better and your tomorrow is smooth as glass! Hugs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where'd they park thier brooms? They look like the inspiration for that old saying about prohibitionist, "They are afraid that somewhere, someone might be enjoying themselves, and feel a compelling need to stop them before it spreads."
