[Abraham]

i was told I have 2 packages addressed to Mr. Fantastic waiting for me at home. I told her they were TOP SECRET and if she opens them I will cut her hair while she sleeps.

So, free haircuts at your house?

 

[Ignoramus]

Smart kid...wait for it.

Funny.Horrible.

I have been on the phone for 15 minutes with a guy needed Sharepoint support. I have told him no fewer than 6 times that I don't know anything about Sharepoint and while I will try to help, I am probably the wrong person on the planet to talk to.

And he is still asking me questions.

Story of your life?

Pretty much. And today was payday and my commission check was $600 short as I didn't calculate my draw correctly. This $600 shortage now has my wife in a panic and floating the idea of moving to south Texas (aka the far side of Hell) where all of her rich aunts own companies so one of them can bestow a job on me through pity that will allow me to earn a more respectable wage.

If it weren't Halloween and my 3 year old weren't already dressed as Minnie Mouse I might be tempted to go jump off a bridge.

Pregnant women are a little emotional. Give her some long leash. Or like YSR, just keep her drunk the whole time.

On that note, I am meeting a coworker at a place called Stock and Barrel here in Knoxville in 15 minutes. I would link a menu but I am on my phone and that's not going to happen.

Can one of my fellow bourbonphiles Google it up and tell me which two you would choose?

Dressed up at the comapny president to emcee our office Halloween costume contest and United Way silent auction. I killed it.

Both the boys have costumes with lightsabers. They've been beating each other with them all day. I don't see how the lightsabers will survive the night.

Frosty - Just picked up a couple pizzas from Papa Murphys. Ours has a pickup window if you call ahead so I skipped in front of the suckas waiting in line.

 

[Abraham]

Did you get the jacko lantern pizza?

 

[Guster]

Can't believe what I'm watching. Need to get 12 more Cards out.

Youcant believe a team with a 140mm payroll is in the world series?

Not just in it, but winning it. Nope. I can't.

Far higher payrolls have come up short

Cal broke his wand, that was borrowed from a neighbor, today at school. Oh and he lost his retainer. About a $300 day for me. Oh and its raining. I've begun to start drinking heavily. These three are driving me nuts.

Of course I did.

Doing the Movember thing again. Is it cheating if I don't shave today?

Nope, as long as you shave on Nov 1, you're good

They were favored to win. They had the highest run differential and most wins in MLB this year, I think. Not sure what was so stunning about this.

 

[Good Posting Judge]

I think this has been discussed here add nausea, but Lindsay Czarniak on SportsCenter could get it.

Because everyone thought they would win at the start of the year, right? They won like 25 more games this year than last and beat teams with more talent

Yeah, I grew up with talented Red Sox teams finding a way to lose, so that will always be my mindset. It probably comes across as obnoxious, but I'm used to them finding a way to lose. I'm not used to the winning, regardless of payroll or talent level

I thought that's when we're supposed to start growing?

According to the rules you shave Nov 1 as the starting point

Ours does not. Pretty crazy how crazy it was there, am I right?

3 days down, 12 more to go. Turns out "2 weeks" was just an estimate. But hey, deep fried cajun turkey on Saturday.

I think we had 5 trick or treaters at my mom's tonight. It rained, but it wasn't too bad. Plus, parents drove their kids around. What's up with that? Weather on Halloween in the Burgh is usually questionable. I walked these hills in the snow one year for that sweet sugar!

 

[Frostillicus]

Wife and her mom are now in full on "talk about who we don't like in the family mode." this is horrible. I can't go downstairs because my father in law went to bed already and he's sleeping down there. My options are to go to bed or try to tune it out and keep drinking. Opting for #2 so far.

 

[Abraham]

I'd do anything for a chance to go to bed early.

 

[Notorious T.R.E.]

Drink in bed down?

 

[Frostillicus]

Drink in bed down?

Feels weird. Not ruling it out.

 

[Frostillicus]

Really? Just go to bed.

My wife and I have been fighting all day about money. So the clippers game is more appealing them my bed. Word up.Eta - and I'm drinking and eating all the candy.

They lead the league in WAR too, if you're into that. I'm not sure what Vegas said, but didn't they have to be the favorites coming in?

 

[Notorious T.R.E.]

Abs

 

[Ignoramus]

Had a table of 8 women tonight who got completely shattered. One of them lifted up my shirt and commented that she would give me $20 if she could rub my abs. $160 later, I feel like a hooker without putting out.

LOOK AT ME!!! I HAVE ABS!!!!1

Vegas also had them winning 82 games this year. They weren't supposed to be good.

So the new tech guy we hired for our office of 6 takes 3 or 4 smoke breaks a day. He spends his entire lunch hour at the other end of the parking lot smoking. Whatever, I don't have to sit in a small control center room with him. But last night he decided to be considerate and put his butts in the trash can in the kitchen rather than leave them outside. So the whole office smells terribly and the sweet Christian girl we have answering the phone is five seconds from quitting. Yea corporate growth!

Why would he smoke outside and bring the butts inside?

I didn't hire him, but I'm beginning to wonder if he's going to fit in. He's a very squirrelly guy that doesn't talk much, drinks coffee all day, and smokes without bringing any gum to work. In other words, he's a tech support technician. He seems nice enough but our office is a bunch of normal people that watch sports and listen to current music and like to drink beer and joke around but just happen to be technically inclined. This dude is all video games and Dr. Who.

We shall see.

Still doesn't explain bring the butts in the building. I say you rape him.

 

[Sweet J]

Hang in there, Sweet J. And if your brother, who has nothing to do with anything as far as I can tell, needs some comfort in these tough times, just let me know.

awesome.

Yeah, I had a similar experience last week with some buddhist women. Did they chant while they rubbed your stomach?

 

[Disco Stu]

I love Halloween so hard. Possibly the best holiday out there.

 

[Notorious T.R.E.]

Surprisingly not that hungover this morning. I think I'm through the looking glass or wormhole or eye of the needle or whatever.
