I just read through to catch up and didn't see anything. Looks like a bunch of stuff was deleted from when MOP was here, though.

I guess I never gave details. There are really only about 4 bars in my town. I was out with the infamous Megan and the crazy chick apparently drove bar to bar until she found my car. I saw her pull up and park outside through the window. She sat there for about 15 minutes, then finally came in and went to the opposite side of the bar. When Meg went to the restroom, crazy came and sat next to me while I was talking to someone else. Ended up talking outside for half an hour, with her apologizing and saying that I blew it out of proportion and that we could work things out. I ended up leaving, but got multiple texts and a phone call at 2 am.

Awesome'Homer J Simpson said:OK, here's the plan.I fly out to Seattle or whatever rain-soaked coniferous forest you live in, and we finagle a plan to get me and her in the same bar. I proceed to get her sh#thammered with my vast knowledge of shots that taste like candy but will knock an Irishman on his ###, all the while being the sensitive shoulder to cry on. The mood will soon lighten up and I will be charming and funny and devastatingly handsome (as the booze really kicks in) and get her to forget about you for a while. I'll lament the "fact" that I can never find a girl who really wants a committed, loving relationship and she will fall for my charms harder than Meghan is falling for Tanner. We will then proceed to her place and I'll do horrendously vile things to her. And her to herself.'-fish- said:I will even stay overnight, holding her gently as she falls asleep. I will have her make me breakfast and we can talk all morning...maybe even spend the day together. I will lament the fact that I have to leave town, but let her know that we can keep in constant contact and that I would even be open to moving out there to live with her. We can go to couples counseling and everything.And this, my friend is how we get you off the hook. A clingy stalker-chick like this will never leave you alone as long as she doesn't have another target in sight. If things go as planned, the new target she will fall madly in love with will be Aaron Rudnicki from Chicago, Ilinois.

I think you've been burned before and are just scared of how close you feel to her, how much she means to you. Let your feelings flow!

Tanner just wants me to get stabbed to death in my sleep so he can have Meg to himself.

I think I'm usually a good arbiter of hot chicks, but I'm just not seeing the Megan thing. I think the other one is hotter when she is in her thinner phases.Tanner just wants me to get stabbed to death in my sleep so he can have Meg to himself.

I feel like we use another term. Not commission, not finders fee...got it, "referral fee"! Thanks for the lead!

I do appreciate your omission of the word "whore".

That's Brit. I think so too, but he only randomly chatted with Megan. It was an instant connection, and they'll be going to counseling together soon.I think I'm usually a good arbiter of hot chicks, but I'm just not seeing the Megan thing.

Just finished my double double animal style here in Phoenix. I enjoy In N Out but anyone who calls it the best burger around just isn't trying very hard.
Anyway, what's up with the rental car center at the airport? They throw you on a shuttle that takes about 10 minutes to get to an airport like building that houses all the rental car counters. It's the size of like 3 football fields and the garage descends about 30 levels in the back like it's built on the cliff from Dusk to Dawn.
If you're going to take me off site to get my car just dump me in the usual poorly lit lot where I can jump in my Emerald Club piece of #### and be on my way. I don't need to walk through your weird arena/garage.

I also have meetings at 9:30 and 10:00 tonight with the tech teams I'm battling with to complete the project they've had all year to complete but only just gave me a beta version 2 days ago and now want to pressure me into calling it a full launch. I'm tempted to get drunk and see if I can avoid losing my job by saying something in appropriate.

**Thank you for the many well wishes and condolences and PMs**
Much appreciated.
Mom passed peacefully at 9:09 p.m. tonight, surrounded by two dozen children, grandchildren, and close friends.
Not a look at me kinda poster, but this may help someone who has to go through this down the road.
Not religious myself, but the priest performed a ceremony about an hour before she passed (Last Rites were given the previous night; this was some kind blesssing thing). Anyway, was comforting to the candle lighters in the family. Afterwards, they drew the curtain around her while we waited outside, and they unhooked the life support systems. From that point to her passing was perhaps 20-30 minutes. Nothing dramatic...her breathing and heart rate slowed down gradually, until she passed without incident or fore warning.
From my last post this morning until 8 p.m. was spent making arrangements. For the services, for the organ/tissue donations, etc. Then she had to meet the criteria of three different tests to be legally declared brain dead.
Contacted my son this morning. He's in 8th grade, and was going on a field trip to plant trees in Detroit. We updated him, and decided to let him go about his day. When he was done, his mom (my ex-wife) drove him 3 hours from Bloomfield Hills to Grand Rapids to spend the evening with us. I'm pretty lucky to be friends with my ex-. Great lady.
Spent some time with my son before we went in to the room. Set up what scene would be like. Told him we all grieve differently, and whatever he felt, just know it was genuine. There's no right or wrong way to morn. After we went in, everyone cleared out so he, his mom, and I could have some alone time with Grandma. There is a ten year gap between Grandchild #9 and my oldest son. So his relationship with my mom was special. He held her hand and whispered to her his whole class schedule and what he has been up to this fall. I am so damn proud of my little man. He's not a boy anymore. We cried- a lot - and then went for a short walk to decompress.
I'm rambling. Bottom line is it all felt like the right way to do things. It's what Mom would have wanted, and that is what matters most.
Spending five more days here burying her and beginning the process of settling the estate.
Again, thanks to all of you for your compassionate support. It means a lot to me.

There was another gentleman there who looked really familiar that I pegged as kind of a #### because he stayed inside and messed around on his phone while everybody else was picking up trash. Turns out we'll be touring his office in a month if not sooner. Cal will love his squad car.

Yep. Mine was about 2 years in the making. Got so absolutely fed up at the end that I gave 30 days notice and resigned last March. Absolutely the right thing to do for my mental (and physical, as it turns out) health.However, saying the job market is tough right now is a serious understatement. I'm a highly employable guy, very solid track record, diverse background but still getting no traction after 6 months. The company I left wants me back and as much as it pains me to consider it, I may have to go back to that hellhole if I don't find something else soon.My advice, if you're going to do it then at least leave on the best of terms. Stay classy. And work your network as hard as you can to find your next opportunity before you head out the door. If you're not getting positive signs of opportunity elsewhere, take that as a sign that you're stuck there for the time being and continue to ride it out. Or, if that's not possible, have plenty of savings you're willing to live off of until you do find something else. Basically, estimate what you think you need to tide you over, then double it.
