GM's thread about nothing (11 Viewers)

enough of the car talk....who's getting wasted this weekend?
Heading to Germany this weekend to watch the GER/ARG game on the jumbotron at the Olympic Stadium in Munich. So, yeah.
If you don't give us a detailed write up when you get back, I'm going to hunt you down and pants you in front of co-workers. I'd sell an organ or a son to trade places with you right now. 3-0 Germany....
 
The future in-law visit is going spectacularly poorly at this point. They arrived last night around 7:00 and the only thing I had managed to do from my to-do list was wax my eyebrows. I had a good dinner all ready to go and for the most part, the night went smoothly.

I spoke with them on Thursday and apologized in advance for the state of cleanliness here. Approximately 1/2 of the house is being renovated, so in addition to sheetrock dust being pretty much everywhere, there is still some chaos in the 1/2 we are living in - in the way of 1/2 unpacked boxes, clutter on the kitchen counter, etc. I normally keep a very tidy household, I'm just not able to do so at this point.

This morning, I awoke to the sound of the dishwasher being unloaded by FMIL. Not a big deal, I appreciate the help in the kitchen. However, over the course of the morning, she has cleaned the kitchen, re-organized the kitchen, taken out the trash (during which she fished a cup out of the trash that she didn't think should have been thrown away), made a production of sweeping all of the hardwoods, and questioning the whys and wheres of things we've put up.

BF is a mama's boy so my frustrations are apparently all on me.

:unsure:

 
Also, I need a good birthday present idea for a 2 year old boy. SLB, GM > looking at you here, guys.

My MIL "cleaned" the dishes after a birthday party once. Her idea of cleaning was evidently to just run them under water and wipe them dry. Crap was still on the dishes, and then she put them away in all the wrong places. A month later we were still finding stuff she put away in the wrong cabinets.

Anything with Thomas the Tank Engine on it should work. Doesn't even have to be a toy, pajamas, sheets if he is going to be moving into a "big boy bed" soon...

Legos?
Large Legos were a suggestion from my BFF who has a 3 yrarold. As was a play-mobil cooter and various other playmobil items
Not playmobile. Playmobile has too many ####ing tiny pieces to lose. A two year old will never be able to keep track of it.Try a duplo Pixar Cars tie-in, like this one. There are others if you want to spend a little more. They have Thomas the train sets too, that would also be a good call.

Oooooof. Sorry, GB.

As a parent, I loved getting puzzles from These Guys. You can find them anywhere (TJ Max? Ross? I'm not sure about Target). They make big floor puzzles that are really fun to do with your kids. I'm partial to the ones with the states, so the kids begin to learn basic geography. This is my 'go-to' gift for others.

Copied from the World Cup thread:There were about 40,000 people in the stadium. Pretty intense. Even after the third goal, nobody was really cutting loose. Just a nervous vibe for most of the game. Everyone went ape#### after the fourth goal, though. It was madness after the game. People everywhere. We made it on to the subway and it was a ####### scene. We were all jumping up and down and chanting. The subway car was bouncing all over the place.Made it to a beer garden to watch the second game. My attention was more on the party than the game, though. I think we left sometime after midnight. Things got fuzzy. At some point on the way home I remember stumbling around with a pizza box in my hands thinking, "Where the hell am I?????" That's pretty much the last thing I remember. I woke up a bit ago safely on the couch. However, apparently I got up last night and pissed all over the floor. :goodposting:

I had a cat named Fred. I'm pretty sure he hated everybody.
I had a cat named Ralph. He hated everybody but me. I also had a cat named Oglethorpe. He hated everybody including me. He died of feline aids. He's the only animal we ever had my mother didn't spend thousands on to save.
Our cat names:Mittens :lmao: SammyHankFrankBrutis
:blackdot: MittensFredGeorgeSpinks

GM, Caterina is probably more well known in Canada for her role on Mr Dressup....the Canadian version of Mr Rogers.

Thomas or Cars. If you hate the parents, look for one of those Wiggles Guitars. Annoying as all hell but kids love them. There's also a very loud whack-a-mole type game with bells and whistles that I have yet to pay my sons godmother back for.

If you really don't like them...get a Home Depot plastic hammer that makes different noises each time he hits something. Its great fun!!! :bag:
 
it took me 1.5 rotations of The Song Remains the Same to finish Hemnes TV stand from IKEA tonight. OG had a couple of long islands and jumped me mid-drawer install. nothing like a little bang bang during some live led zep. OG= Ole' Girl
Did you manage to work that miserable little Ikea wrench into the bang bang?

We're hoping for some new information here, GB.
:tinfoilhat: I think I have demonstrated many times here that I'm not very good at writingstories.

Let me check how some of the pictures of me turned out. :tinfoilhat:

I will tell you this, Mrs. SLB wanted to check out one of those fruit piano bars and the bouncer asked me for a $5 each cover. I told him that he should be paying me.

He let us in for free. I'm assuming because of the cat shirt.

Yeah, I was really amused when he told the cashier that "these guys are on me".You really shouldn't encourage me when I'm drinking heavily.

 
On the topic of funny cat names, my brother in law had a pregnant cat suddenly start living under his porch. It apparently had a weak litter. I don't really understand this, but apparently when this happens, the mother will just kill all of her young. So one day he comes home and finds the no-longer-pregnant cat and a row of dead kittens. This is a very sad thing. The funny part is that he decided to take care of the cat, and named it Muffins Manson.

Unsolicited advice for my GBs...

If your wife wants new boobs, just go ahead and spend the money on a divorce lawyer instead. Save yourself some time and money.
