GM's thread about nothing (27 Viewers)

Warning: kvetching follows...

I am so effing exhausted right now. One class done. One more to go, & a stack of student papers to grade.

Right now: trying to unwind with 2 shots (spit and swallowed) & nursing my last beer with some baseball on the tube.

Tomorrow: shot video from the library.

 
Having a bit of the hoarding gene apparently has its benefits. We went to my in-laws yesterday and picked up a bunch of football cards that my husband collected when he was little.

The following rookie cards are in acrylic protective cases and in mint condition:

Walter Payton

Tom Landry

Barry Sanders

Jerry Rice

Terry Bradshaw

Joe Montana (x2)

Earl Campbell

Johnny Unitas

Fran Tarkenton

Dan Marino (x3, plus 5 others in a plastic sheath)

OJ Simpson (x2)

Jim Brown

Jim Kelly

Roger Staubach

Bryon Piccolo

He wants to keep a lot of these for our non-existent kids, but I'm pretty pumped about trying to price out some of these and the two other big notebooks of cards. :moneybag:

Yeah, it's fun to price them, but you're never going to get anywhere near to what you think you will.I'd save them for the imaginary offspring. That's what I did with my baseball cards. It's fun going through them with my son from time to time.

Yeah, I don't know. They are always different too. Last night I had a bazooka, the guy next to me did too and there were 7-8 guys with rifles. We were trying to outflank some tanks (left side) through a forest when they outflanked us and came right at us. All hell was breaking loose and I woke up.I usually don't get shot but I have several times that I remember. Once in the chest and once in the arm. I also woke up one night after I took one to the head and everything went black. :mellow:
Mine was the exact same dream, everytime.I always got cut down running across a field.

Do you have any cop or drug dealer friends? Borrow their kevlar and wear it to bed. Hey, you never know until you try.

So...let's say someone gave you a baggy of "tobacco" and some rolling papers, but you've never rolled yourself before. What's the best of way of learning how to do this without losing all the "tobacco"?
Empty beer can with a key-punched hole down?
 
Six days out and things are pretty good for the little bentleys. No real pain, just a feeling that things aren't all perfect down there (kind of like 15 minutes or so after a good racking when the feeling hasn't completely gone away). Have to spill my seed 20 times before taking in a sample to be tested to make sure it took. As a married guy, I expect to see the doctor again in a couple years.

Pretty sure you're supposed to do a bunch of meat raffles.
 
I have insomnia. I have an Ambien prescription. I remember fishing out one pill last night among at least five or six left.

I went to take one tonight -- but the bottle is empty. :unsure:

The wife didn't touch it.

Junior can't reach that high and couldn't get the lid off anyway.

If I would have taken them, I'd probably be dead.

So. Here I am. Awake with a mystery.

Someone call the Scooby Gang. Thnx.

 
I'll be quite embarrassed in the morning for my immediately prior post (in another thread), but there you go. I'm not looking for any "he's a ####" stuff--I don't even know if that's true. I just needed to let this out in the safest way possible, and this is the spot to do that.

Just got word from Cal's IEP that he has done so well he won't need to attend any summer classes for behavioral (or scholastic) issues. :thumbup:Thanks to all of you public school teachers!

You bunch of overpaid, too many vacation day getting, eye rapers.
Awesome news, Bob.

:thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: Thanks guys. I was pretty happy about this yesterday. Then Mrs. SLB calls me at 4:30 to tell me she screwed up and the Boy Scouts award ceremony was last night at Cal's school and not next Wednesday. I tell her I'll be late but I'll meet her there. I'm a good 20 minutes late and am relieved to see Scout Master's wife and assistant (my neighbors) pull up right before me. Cool, I'm not the only one late. I go in, find a seat next to Mrs. SLB & Dyl and everything is going fine. Mrs. SLB says he had a great day at school and no incidents at Boy Scouts. Great! His back was turned to us so he didn't even know I was there. About two minutes after I sat down he walks over visibly upset. I try to give him a hug but he won't have any of it. He says he has a question for Mom. Apparently there was a camping trip last Friday night while I was at the lake. My wife didn't even tell me about it. He asked if that was true and when he found out it was, and he didn't get to go, he announced he was leaving. He walked out the door, I waited a minute and then went after him. He was crying his eyes out, telling me I ruined his life (he may be in the 2nd grade but can argue at a 10th grade level) and I was a bad Dad. The ripped his yellow Boy Scout scarf off and yelled he quit. This went on for a good 10 minutes. I'm going to leave out the rest of the ugly details, but he was hysterical. We finally get him calmed down enough to get him back in the gym to graduate to the next level and he starts crying again. Every parent in the place was looking at us, particularly me, and judging. It was ####### awful. The chick neighbor Scout leader was really understanding and told him that nobody spent the night because of the hail storm and that seemed to placate him. I told her thanks and asked if she also had a big rock in her back pocket I could crawl under. She put her arm around me and said "that's what neighbors are for". The male neighbor Scout leader looked at me funny, when he would make eye contact, up until I left.I got home a few minutes before them and he came into the house as if nothing had happened. "Hey Dad! I see you got some new ties here!" I didn't yell or scream but made it very clear how it made me feel and how he was never to act like that again.I couldn't sleep last night so I'm going to knock out a quick 5 miles before my 9 meeting. :bye:

Of course you have my sympathies, K. I'd offer my ear too, but I'm barely hanging on myself and would make for a crap listener.

You got plenty of good folk around here for that though. :thumbup:

 
The wife did it
I'm all for blaming women for everything, but I kinda doubt she stole my drugs as she had a minor anxiety attack when I told her, worrying about Jr. finding them on the floor. Plus she left me a "I love you" note this morning, suggesting I go see the doc for a low volume script to get me through the last week of the semester. I'm thinking I spilled them down the drain and forgot? Also -and I'm totally serious here- I eventually got some sleep and dreamt I was a soldier in WWII. :mellow:

Only my sense of ordinance is awful. I don't even know how to load a gun without pressing R2, so it was more like Scott Pilgram vs. the Schutzstaffel. I was shooting RPG rockets at Nazis in a basement and coming out unscathed.
