Have I told this story before?

I believe Nebraska's law on what fireworks are illegal is a little more lax than Iowa's...at least it is in Lancaster County. (Lincoln)

So the city of Lincoln had just passed the smoking ban in indoor public places. We're driving home through the post-fireworks display traffic, and through the blue haze of all the private fireworks, we read a billboard that says "Enjoy Smoke-Free Lincoln!"

When I lived in Omaha, it was easily the smokiest city I've ever been in. I couldn't believe the percentage of people that smoked. But as far as being an annoyance to me, it was still a REALLY distant second to Husker fans.
 
GTO hope all goes good with wife and baby. 3 day weekend (hopefully for you) to spend time with wife and boy. 2015 sorry the asking didn't go so well. You'll get the dating thing to go your way, I'm pretty sure your life is well above average.

Thanks. Just taking it a day at a time. It might be another week or two.
 
I'm playing foot golf this afternoon for the first time. Kinda excited. It's played on a golf course with a soccer ball. The holes are set off in the rough.

I'm debating bringing my hydration pack and filling it with beer.
 
jeepers, wxman's wife and yours too? You were due in July, right? So you're very, very close? Hope she continues to feel well.

Thanks! She was due at the end of July/early August. This is just to buy time and get as close to the due date as possible. The doctor expects the baby to come early anyway.
 
I'd never parked in a parking garage that didn't have a button to raise the gate until last night. I was stuck downtown until this morning when a parking attendant finally showed up.

Stuck at home or struck at work or play downtown?

Did you try to manually raise it? Most of the ones I've known can be lifted since they don't have a stop above the bar. The motor that raises them usually just powers a lever underneath the bar.
 
Without have been there, obviously, it sounds to me like it could have had to do with her and not so much you. Don't be too down about it, it doesn't sound like you are completely out of the race yet. Try again when you get the chance. Even if it ends up being a phone call down the line.

And if it doesn't work out for you, I would still gladly accept an invitation to the game. :v_SPIN:

Yea, she had heard that it wasn't that good out I guess (which was true) so she didn't think it was worth it in general to go out. And I already got a waiting list of people that want the other ticket (all dudes). It's a catered box seat with unlimited food, beer, and cocktails. And you get some signed balls or something. It's actually in the outfield though and you can't even buy these tickets, they are only given to corporate sponsors.

On a scale of 1-10, how hot is she?

What's your average girl? I use kind of like a grading system where 7 is average like a C in school. If 7 is average, she is a 9+. If 5 is average she's an 8.

I just didn't even get a chance. Oh well. I guess it'll happen over the phone.

My scale of 1-10, average is 5.

Either way, in this case, you keep trying! Never give up on an 8+ unless you have no other option than to give up. I'd still definitely ask her. Sounds like her decision to not go out really has nothing to do with you at all.

I'm still gonna ask her. It's just gonna have to be over the phone I think.

Yeah, but at least you looked good.

I see you're taking your own advice to keep trying on 8+ :jimlad:

Guys like us, 2015, persistence may be the key to victory or the reason for loss, but it's the only play we've got, so you go all in with it and pray for the former, not the latter.
 
supposed to come do the dryer around this time. So I decide to go for a run beforehand and then we can go do errands after they get it installed. Now they've backed it up to 1pm. They are apparently still on stop #1 and we are #5. Slightly annoyed that we are that far down the list to fix their error and now the whole day is going to be shot waiting around for them.
