The girl that said "your mom is downdated", we'll call her Sienna, just skyrocketed up my Favorite Student List.
When you're in jail, the "one phone call" thing is a myth, or so I was told by the kind folks in the downtown Atlanta jail when I tried to call to let someone know where I was. I wasn't allowed to make a phone call until 3:30 the next afternoon.
weird. something made me think about these this morning. only difference was that ours was a slide selector instead of a push button
Anyone needing a high-quality laugh:

My blogging is going well, maybe too well. I am currently authoring 5 articles per week for two different blogs each.
One is about technology (right in my wheelhouse), the other about industrial chemistry (seriously).
Each post averages about 800 words, which basically means I am producing 4-5 typed pages of high quality, edited and source material every day of the week. It takes me about 1.5 hours per post.
The pay is excellent - I make 2x in a month what I used to make in an entire season as FBG staff, although I am writing a lot more.
They are asking me to consider writing a third blog.
The money is very interesting to me.
I could fit it in to my day, I'm sure.
The blog is for...
....wait for it...
a CPA and Personal Wealth Advisory Firm.
We are through the looking glass people...
When I was in jail we got unlimited phone calls.When you're in jail, the "one phone call" thing is a myth, or so I was told by the kind folks in the downtown Atlanta jail when I tried to call to let someone know where I was. I wasn't allowed to make a phone call until 3:30 the next afternoon.
And before you get all judge-y about my being 29 and getting so ####ed up, my ex-best friend was my designated driver that night, but informed me at the end of the night that she had had too much to drink and asked if I would mind driving since my apartment was only 1.5 miles away. I wasn't of sound mind to say "no", unfortunately.
I know you can find a nice rental house in the 3k range. We're in the 2k range and are in a good neighborhood with a decent sized house. 50% on top of that should be acceptable Krista levels.
Here too, apparently. When I dropped my daughter at school this morning there was a kid in a tshirt and no coat. It was 33 degrees out. But after -30 wind chill I guess that felt pretty warm.
Probably so. The thing is, this is a REALLY laid back workplace. Beer in the fridge, lunch brought in on Fridays kind of spot. But the culture works because everyone looks out for one another and makes sure the work gets done. If he'd texted or called or emailed this morning (or even last night) it wouldn't be a big deal. But he's the technician that works from 10-7pm, so now because of his unplanned absence the guy that got here at 7am is stuck manning the help desk until 7pm tonight, by himself, on a Friday.
I didn't think I could either, which is a big part of why I did it. At the start, I left plenty of room for failure. As it went on it got easier. Kind of a cool experience, though after 5 days I'm a bit weary of it. You don't realize how much of what you do revolves around food until you stop eating it. Meeting a friend? You're grabbing a beer. Going over to a friends' house with your wife? You're eating dinner. I've caught myself opening the fridge on my days off out of sheer habit.I am not sure I go that many days without bacon, sausage or jerky- let alone any calories.On the minus side, it is friggin freezing and already a long winter here in Maine.I haven't eaten or drank a calorie since Sunday at about 5. Today the fast ends. I'm excited.Do what now?I'm pretty excited to eat dinner tonight too. Fast ending after 5 days of not a single calorie.
On the plus side, I have been catching brook trout like crazy through the ice and jamming them down my throat hole.
Looks like I'm a year late in all areas of Seattle, with those year-over-years.
Believe me, I've been looking. It wouldn't surprise anyone, I'm sure, to know I've looked at thousands of listings. Aren't you in the 'burbs? (I'm just making an assumption there, based on the kids--sorry if wrong.) City core and even Ballard which is a little father from the center are just crazy expensive.
I did the lemonade almost-fast a couple of times and found this the hardest part by far, too. It wasn't a hunger problem so much as the habit and the social aspects of food and drink.I didn't think I could either, which is a big part of why I did it.

I'm in West Seattle near Lincoln Park. My wife pretty much looked on Craigslist every day for a month and we looked and signed on this place within 2 hours of it being posted.Looks like I'm a year late in all areas of Seattle, with those year-over-years.

I was talking about Chappy Quiddick. He's a poster on another board.
Sirens and Lightning Bolt are both good.
I like this.

Not the Mallrats reference, but the original pic heckmann is referring to.
LOVE West Seattle. We would consider it but feel like being new to the area we need to be in more of the "action" to begin with, places with a very high walk score.I'm in West Seattle near Lincoln Park.

Oh yeah. Hell, you might be interested in this sector as almost all stocks are under a dollar.
On the inter####ingnetWhere would one find such videos if so inclined?picWas this ever answered, because I didn't get it, either.

You guys have never seen any of the "casting couch" porn vids?
Gonna spotify this later. "Blow Your cool!" was my intro into them and I wore that tape to the nubs.Stoneage Romeos is a sweet album.
Shouldn't this say you've reached your limit of positive votes? A quota would be the minimum number you should be doing per day, not the maximum.
