Random Thoughts IX (The first 8 were probably better)

Worst car trouble? Husband wants to trade cars for the day because he needs bigger car to haul people to out of town work meeting. I have first baby and taking him to two week old appointment. I ask if his car has plenty of gas? He assures me I will get there and back with plenty to spare. Driving down Ingersoll on way to doctor, car runs out of gas. So I am walking in snow with the two week old baby and kind of physically exhausted anyway from giving birth recently. The return trip of six blocks uphill in the snow with both the full gas can and the floppy headed two week old baby was just a joy.

how many times during that walk did you stab your husband in your mind?

hey, they invited us to some meetings tomorrow now. And I'm going to those!

Alternatively, you think I can convince Dh to let me be his stay at home wife if I get fired?

You sure you want that? More time for WDSM to watch you from his tree

Some horror movie number. Worst part, knowing him, I was going to stop at the first gas station anyway, just didn't make it. Such a dumb ass on common sense.

****, you got a mortgage to pay, woman.

Dh can about pay it on his own at this point.

Is he still sleeping on the couch?

Well we had many boys after that, so no. The man can help the kids with freaking proof calculus and quantum mechanics but can't make sure the car has gas for his wife and infant child in Iowa in February.

Not a team player
Doesn't work well with others
Too cool for the rest of us

That's what your boss is now thinking. New title is likely Unemployed

In other words, senior management material!

I love it when KC goes on ticket exchange and gives a ticket away!

I gave away two earlier this month but drew the line on outfitting. Figure they could supply their own oxygen tanks for those row 15 seats.

Something for @wxman1. From the movie Catch-22 in 1970. 17 B-25's take to the sky. No computer graphics, all real operating planes. Great scene. Audio is cool to, going from roaring planes to just the sounds of birds at empty field.

Not sure when to use up my vacation. I'd have to use it all next week to have it on my last check before Christmas.

It sounds like you have your answer.

Find a way to take it. Employers don't reward people for not taking vacation, as much as we'd like to think to the contrary.

Epic struggle today.

Battle of titans, Slug vs. Sloth.

No winners here.

Jamie hasn't been responding to my E-mails. Can I just E-mail you instead and have you discuss the topic over dessert?

I'll see how it goes weather-wise next week. Don't want to skip out when I could be working. I think what I have left will rollover to next year if I don't use it, can't remember what my boss said. I don't think he even knows I already took one day a while ago.
