GM's thread about nothing (18 Viewers)

[cstu]

And regarding our boy Uruk Hai...UH,you are a friggin' man. I love that you're taking this #### and dealing with it like a champ. I've always been a fan of your work, so I will gladly add myself to the cornhole list. No idea where the Austin idea came from, but I'll go wherever and force your liver to kick the #### out of your bad lungs.

Oh, I wasn't dealing with it all that well last Spring, RFH. I went on a couple (I think) week drunken blackout. Really screwed my coworkers and left them hanging. At one point, I must have decided I needed to get back to work and went in snot-drunk in the middle of the night. My only "clear" memory of that whole period is being awakened by our controller (a lady) while I had a half-empty bottle of B&B (wtf? I don't even drink that) next to my elbow and a site called "Ride My Secretary" (lesbian edition) up on my browser. I went through a ton of self-pity and didn't deal with offers of help very well. I'm slightly hardheaded and internalize a lot. Therapy helped a gazillion tons. Now I'm fine. May be different when the #### gets really bad but I'm not worrying with that at this point.

I've had a horseshoe up my ### my entire life. Company I spent almost my entire adult life working for going bankrupt? No problem - guy on the Board of the bank holding the note just so happens to be my uncle's best friend, warns me, I'm the last guy to get all of his money, and said-uncle-friend hires me (everyone who left after me got screwed). Been married twice and have had both exes tell me they didn't want alimony. Have to sell my house (that I bought at the peak) in the worst economy since the 1930s because the company I work for is moving? A friend just so happens to want a house in that exact area to rent out - got out of that with minimal loss.

Who knows? My life's been charmed in a lot of ways. It may be self-delusion, but I wouldn't be shocked if I didn't #### out this bunch of bad cells. If not, I've got nothing to complain about.

How can you go to work after this? I'd be doing a whole lot of cocaine at this point.

 

[shuke]

I feel like Shuke...I went to a podiatrist almost 2 months ago on referral from my doctor because I have super flat feet (pics available on request) and I thought that it had been affecting things when I exercise because my feet, calves, knees and hamstrings end up hurting. Podiatrist took X-rays, said yep... Flat feet and the start of a bunion on my big left toe, so he fit me for custom orthotics. Old man, check. Well, of course insurance doesn't cover the cost for orthotics for flat feet, only for some other "code" and of course they won't tell me what the other codes are. I called the podiatrist and talked to the girl at the front desk to check if there was some other way to code it and they said that's the only code they use. Ok, no luck, waves goodbye to $250. I went in for a follow up (and had to get fitted for additional arch support, fml) and they asked me if I had been doing my plantar fasciitis stretches They had never said anything about plantar fasciitis to me, so I'm :shuked: do I have it or did the girl at the front desk that always seems overly friendly to me switch something up based on my earlier call??

Did you ask when they said that?I think flat feet are commonly associated with a deficiency of the posterior tibial tendon. Maybe they want you to do some stretching for this.

It's tempting to start a "messages from Julio" thread or blog. Julio is our new Nica property manager, a good friend we decided to put in charge despite his sometimes questionable mastery of English. The latest e-mail from tonight:

Hello dear krista already received all your emails.

For customers of either cleaning or Mrs. pancho carmen not you worried that somehow I will be always aware of how to do everything so that everything is 100% clean and keep customers happy.

I'll be watching everything ok.

Excuse you responded until now is, what happens to take lunch, and I got really bad, VOMITING and diarrhea. sorry for being so honest.

Pancho What you have every reason next week I will do something with that.

Following on from tomorrow I'll be watching everything I have even undone. as glass lamps, and chairs and other small things.

good night

with love

Julio

say hi my brother devin

I love that, like GM, despite few language skills he managed to spell "diarrhea" correctly.One of my favorites from this week:

Hello good evening DEAR CHIEF

Just wanted to tell you a little about my day

Work on some things at home camila which is more beautiful than it is.

I will send a report this weekend with photos and receipts.

Jessica is already paid two papers she signed one that you sent me and two one where I specified what I got it right?

apart from that we work hard at home all day the garden and its plants are all handsome.

The stove is really like to be clean and shiny.

Tomorrow you'll have to take money out of receipts and payments to catch up with all businesses such as internet, electricity and water. and many other things I'll be doing at home camila.

Ex: The walls are very ugly in some parts of the house.

ok for now I will not take more time I guess you are so tired from work

good Night

God bless u

July

A big hug

[krista4]

OH MY GOD, I'm glad you can not imagine how much joy I feel, knowing that all the work I've done delighted you found, the stove did. is for that reason that does not appear in the report, but I did it with so much love. (Y or I feel super happy, I am grateful to you for the opportunity you gave me).Well next week I have too many plans for camila house, fence every day improving everyday.Thanks again, I guess you need to rest.RestWith much loveJulio

[krista4]

Well this is my second postExplain a little, the house is almost ready.only two things missing.1. chairs, will be ready on Wednesday, that's the reason why we do not put them in the bill.2. glasses for the pool table.i was in Managua in Sinsa, and these models were removed from the market, then I do not take any desicion.3. I will wait a warrant for you to see what I will do.4. send photos for you to look at this nice house now.I'm giving my best for you.There are bills or bills that I can not stand,for example: round trip transportation from Managua, taxi, or things like that I hope you can understand.everything else to try to get the best price on everything for you.If you have something to ask or say to all the world like he would explain to you what you want.Julio

 

[proninja]

Met with my attorney this a.m. to write up my Will. Not having kids, and all of my cousins are rich, made it a little tougher than I thought. I went Brother/Mother/Lawyer. In case of the first two pre-deceasing me, lawyer is to liquidate and give whatever's left to the Woodstock, VA food drive. I've got a couple of days to review. Is there any worthy cause I should think of that won't piss the money away?

I've heard good things about the Samuel L Bronkowitz Beer Fund. It brings so much joy and happiness to all

Good as any. Might sound maudlin or melodramatic, but accepting being terminal is pretty liberating. Thanks, cigarettes!

Wait, what? Did I miss something? :(

Holy ####. :(

Inoperable ####. Cancer can kiss my ###, but no one to blame but myself.

Holy ####. I don't even know what to say here, but very sorry.

Yeah I haven't posted any response to this stuff because I really have no idea what to say, so I'll just echo Shuke. Which is always a good policy.

I haven't known what to say, so I'll just this

Our Seahawks have beat both the Packers and the Patriots so far this year.

And no, they weren't the most impressive wins, but they were wins, so stuff it.

UH/Bill:

I haven't said anything because I've had my daughter for a few days, which for me equates to being stone cold sober. Now that I've had a few and am in a more typical state, I finally feel like I can weigh in. No words can express how much I am impressed with your outlook, how sorry I am, or how much it sucks to see one of our brethren going through what you are. Although you don't know me more than any other iknucklehead, know that if there's anything I can do, legal or otherwise, I'm always willing to help in any way I can.

Stay strong, have fun, and live the way you want to live.

Peace,

Roverfish

B/c I know you guys care...one of my FF leagues has negative scoring for Team Defense if they give up a ton of points. When RG3 when on that huge run, it put me up by 1 with the GB defense left and my opponent was done for the day. Benched the GB defense FTW. FF version of the victory formation

I did this once. There was an official change in scoring from the Elias people later in the week. Lost by 5.

 

[Raider Nation]

And here I was feeling sorry for myself for having Epididymitis (nonstop ball pain, in simplistic terms).

Acute or chronic?

Since I've never had it before now, I'm guessing NOT chronic. The other fun thing I have going on is a weak piss stream. As in, barely more than a dribble. Standing to pee isn't a very good idea, and when I sit it takes maybe 3 minutes to get the job done and feel somewhat "empty"...

Upon Googling, an enlarged prostate seems to be the culprit 90% of the time. And I am just about at the age where that is a common thing. Bought some Saw Palmetto based upon various idoctor recommendations, but I guess I have to go back to the urologist to be sure.

Has anyone experienced this?

[Leeroy Jenkins]

Finally getting around to watching Mad Men. Halfway through episode 1 and I'm a little iffy about it so far. The point so far seems to be to make the sure audience appreciates how wacky and different times were in the 60s with the constant smoking, morning drinking and light sexual harassment. That was pretty much the story of my twenties.

My wife and I just started it a week or two ago as well. We are a few into Season 3 now. I had the exact same thought as you at first. It seemed gimmicky. Keep watching though, it gets better and the characters get deeper. It's a top show.

Perfect.No time right now to come up with the best ones, but here are a couple more.

This one I like because of the attempt at a "PS" and the fact he decided to sign his last name.

Hi krista Goodnight

I received your email and I'm so happy that I have good recommendations. Thanks for telling me.

Tomorrow I'll take $ 500 for jessica and also makes me sign the receipt before getting all things, such as keys, receipts water electricity and internet.

I'll wait until Thursday to get the other 500 dollars but I will go doing other things, like the garden, leaving'll end as a new stove and other things.

I will not take more time, I know you work a lot.

Thanks again

pd, I hope you are understanding my English

God bless

good night

I imagine it comes across somewhat like a Julio message. At least I hope so.

[bentley]

Someone dropped out of a team we sponsored at a charity golf tournament so I have to drop everything and head to the course. Its a tough life. I'm not sure that Angrywife is convinced regarding the mandatoriness of my participation.

 

[General Malaise]

GM, thanks for the beer.

Too bad the Rams and Cowboys couldn't eek out a win. I hit on our Bills and the Packers, so 2-4 on the Cosjobs RR Parlay worked for me. That might have been the deadest Hooters I've ever been to in my life. There were like 4 people in there not wearing bright orange shorts and white tank tops. Costume idea, btw.I continued my day to Buffalo Wild Wings, then ended the day at Coach's, where I ingested some sort of burger with ham, bacon, cheese and tator tots. Let's just say I think I have what Julio has. Oh, and I went to bed last night at 5:40pm. Not on purpose, but that's what happened. No wife, no baby, no sons...and I go to bed at 5:40pm. Do I know how to party or what!

Though for some weird reason, I'm still sleepy.And I still have this chemical taste in my mouth from the sugar free gum. I'm starting to get scared. It's been a few days now.
