GM's thread about nothing (59 Viewers)

I was actively chortling at my desk with tears running down my face reading the thread this afternoon. The other people that were left in my office (open office, both sit less than 10' from me) were asking what I was laughing at. Yeah, it's not as funny when you have to explain it to other people :lmao:

 
Talked with the ortho today - I'm in the sling for at least a week, until my follow-up with the surgeon on the 24th.

Came out ahead on the family "white elephant" exchange, I think. Put in 2 old Xmas CDs (Dr. Demento and the Jingle Dogs) and came home with a half bottle of Crown Royal XR. :mellow:

 
GOOD NEWS ALERT:

So my Dad has been in the hospital for the last week, had a bleed in his colon. Things got really iffy a few days ago, talk of removing his colon to save his life, discussions about how colostomy bags aren't as bad as they used to be :X , etc. But the super doctor who saved his life with a Whipple procedure 5 years ago, tried a procedure which was basically like a Fix-A-Flat for his colon. It worked, and he is going to get to go home tomorrow.

My ex-wife's new husband had a second trip back into the hospital due to complications from his surgery, (and for a strange day he and my Dad were in rooms right on top of each other) is also home and looks like he is going to fully recover.

And finally, my youngest brother's wife had their second son this morning, and baby and mom are doing fine. Big brother Arlie Danger now has little brother Asher Danger to teach all kinds of stuff to. (Yes, my brother has registered several dangerbros domains)

Pretty good day all around...
Great to hear GB.

Your ortho didn't do the surgery?? That's a bit odd isn't it?

 
Good news: Glad to hear your news, Bogart.

Better news: Our meeting ran late and we never got to the "fun facts".

Best news: The GMTAN once again came through with beyond :lmao: :lmao: :lmao: ideas all around.

"Little Johnny's elf made elf doughnuts for him and his sister because they were so good. And Chartreuse's elf undecorated her tree last night. Julia's elf brought her a note. How come my elf hasn't done any of that?"

"Based on the recycle bin, it seems like your elf got into a bottle of Pritchard Hill last night. She was probably sleeping it off. "

I hate you people. :finger:

 
Oh holy hell....Frosty! Your box of wonder arrived today and I have to say, even though you hate me, you put way way way WAY too much effort into this. You are such a generous person. LOVE the Godfather box set, love the movies, love all the baseball cards. Love. My favorite item is the Chuck Knoblach card taped haphazardly to a wooden box. Outstanding. I shall send you another box of peppered meat soon, friend. Thank you. So much. That was fun today.

Glad you liked it, hopefully you can have some fun with the cards with the kids. And you can open that Shawn Kemp starting lineup, it's not worth anything.

I'm ready for your meat any time.

Sorry, didn't type that very clearly. Talked with a nurse at the ortho hospital today just to see if I had questions or if there were any problems. I see the surgeon who did the op on the 24th for an in-person follow-up, at which point I'll get further info on rehab. For now, I just continue with passive range-of-motion stuff.

Was going to say that would be odd. GL with your continued PT, it gets better.

By the way -fish-, don't open your box around your daughter.

Parental dooshery.

 
Toyed with taking them to a movie tonight, but they bolted the house for their friends house
This makes me sad. How old are they again?
I missed this part. :( I was too busy laughing at Blue Ray.
Oh, it's all good. They are 11 and 9 and are lucky to have friends in the neighborhood who in turn have cool parents. But the loneliness in the house when nobody is home gets to me, so I picked up two large pizzas and now both boys have friends over for a sleepover. I hope they watch movies until midnight and pee outdoors. Nice to have a full house. I have escaped to the back room with wine, a novel and soon, Breaking Bad.
What novel?
Jesus Son. Which might not qualify as novel, but wanted to work that word in.
Really good book. They didn't even :tfp: the movie too bad
I saw the movie years and years ago and was the only person in our foursome that liked it. I started the book last summer, but forgot about it. Figured I'd try to finish it as its only 150 pages. :bag:
When you read a book, do you ever get tripped up on all those correctly spelled words?

We were supposed to get 3-4" of snow last night and it turned out to be 9". I hate my piece of #### snow blower with a passion. The thing is great as long as there is 2" of snow or less and it's is dry and fluffy. Anything, else, notsomuch. I seriously considered throwing it in the street and running over it, repeatedly, with my car.

Frosty, please add Sears, Roebuck and Company to your enemies list.
What's a snow blower?

Some chicks are trying too make a bunch of money off of Christmas by getting kids to get their parents to buy them stuffed elves. Parents have to be parents and take it to the next level. At this point, for way too many of them, it's more about the parents than the kids.

I'm easily annoyed, so this bothers me.

Well, that and my daughter being a social butterfly who feels like she's missing out on something because, "She's THE ONLY ONE in her class without an elf. "

Yeah, I'm sure the Weinsteins have an elf.

Oh, OK. Sounds awful. My SIL has some elf-thing that she keeps putting in different made-up situations and posting a picture of it on Facebook every day. Like, in the wine bottles deciding between red and white. It's horrible. She's pretty horrible, too, yet somehow a bit better than my brother.

My snow blowers are the 2 teen age kids that shovel my drive way for me. LOL.

Stu Jr has been anxiously awaiting the Packers visit to Dallas for a full year now. Tomorrow is the big day. His first NFL game! :excited:

Aaron Rodgers being ruled out was disappointing but barely dented his excitement. Then yesterday Jr came down with something. 103 degree temp last night continued throughout today. Poor guy slept basically 20 hours straight, with just a few 5 minute breaks. Game status very much in doubt. Questionable at best. :oldunsure:

But throughout he insisted he was going to the game "no matter what". :football:

Finally about two hours ago his fever broke and he felt much better. Now he's down for the night and will hopefully be ready to roll tomorrow.

Haven't read anything past this, but Romo gave you and your son a game for the ages. He'll never forget that. Romo.....it's really impossible to put into words.

Oh yes, that's it! Luckily she seems to be the only person on my Facebook that I've seen do it. I've been (mostly) spared, I guess.

I hate those pictures she posts more than I hate genocide, kitten-killers, mosquitoes, people who make spelling and/or grammatical errors in their thread titles, and that GMTANner I don't like, combined. :(

Tell her those kids are stupid. They believe an inanimate object, right in front of them, that they know was purchased in a store (obviously because they are asking parents to buy it) is somehow real and goes to the North Pole and back everyday and; what's the rest? It gets into weird stuff and if you touch him you go to hell?

 
We have an unused elf for any of you in need of one. We put it out once and JR refused to come downstairs when he saw it so the elf was quickly retired.

JR is also not big on Santa. Santa came to preschool Monday and JR walked into the building, saw Santa, and turned around and walked out without breaking stride. He told his teacher that mommy had already given Santa is list so there was no need for further discussion.
