ZK aren't you glad you weren't invited, then you don't have to decline. I prefer people not ask in the first place, but my wife likes to be invited but always declines; she likes to feel included. I like to be excluded, I'm like just don't bother me, don't tell me to watch certain things or go places or eat your food, because it just gets awkward when i say yeah I'm not interest and next time just don't say anything. I'm not a beast I just want to be left alone like the happy solitary white buffalo that I am. I mean the only person I can stand to be around is my wife and select family members other than that I'm over joyed with this internet I can keep all my friends at least a state away, if you have a tiff you just don't play games with that person for a week and then you forget about it. And if you really don't like someone you defreind them and block them and poof they are gone into the abyss of the internet. :)

OMG Free I'm the same way! If hubby and I do actually go to a social event of some kind, we sit together in a corner and talk and laugh. Online I'm a lot more social than offline. I, too, like having friends too far away to drop by or invite me to see them.

So my Wife says we are going for a walk.

I say it's -17C.

I'm going for a walk. Code for "I" better be "we".

My best snow blowing outfit should be good enough?

Sunny day, wind at our back. Not so bad.

Turns into the light breeze. Holy mother of goodness!

I need new gooves. Plastic palms cracked.

I need new boots. Plastic cracking and not warm enough.

Splash pants are not good enough for breaking the wind.

I need to fasten all of the weather straps.

Maybe wife learned a lesson.

Brrrrrrrrrrr! It's allegedly 53 f here right now. I have the heat on and everyone outside is dressed for snow. Well, everyone FROM here. Incomers are wearing short sleeves and all. Weird northern people. My brother is married to a Canadian. They go up there sometimes in the summer, and he's cold and bored lol.

I got a wind chill advisory on my phone yesterday at 11:15am. For SW Florida? Really?? LOL! I can only assume someone, somewhere pushed that button instead of the daily rip current advisory button.

LOL Deep! 

P.S. I miss you and the Thursday night crew :( I don't even know if you guys have been playing..?

Lol Free

So I went to the vet to buy food for my cats and at the counter, they have a photo album of dogs that need homes. And two framed pics of dogs that need homes right now this minute or they're going to the Humane Society. I want a dog SOOO bad but my cats are very territorial, spoiled  little monsters. And dogs are a lot more work. I know it's not really in the cards for us, but that photo album made me want ALL THE DOGS. (I told the vet assistant this and she laughed and said "with YOUR cats, I'd suggest you not get a dog. They may take out their frustration on you." )

Talkin shit about my babies! (She's totally right though. They'd look right at me as they destroy stuff lol.)

*Welcome to crazy cat lady who is also a dog lover chat*

Holy crow! Couldn't update my Live account with a 12mo prepaid card.

Went through several iterations with Live chap rep. Finally they had to cancel my current subscription before any new codes would work. I was quite worried about not accessing my games there for several minutes.

Can't you just keep the dog outside like Deep? Deep I think is an outside husband although it is sad how he'll peek in the windows at you and whimper when a thunderstorm comes up, but he knows where the garage is.

Sometimes I pretend that Deep and I live in an aquarium together; I'm the eel and he is the hermit crab.

All I have is a list of complaints. Since none of you are married to me, it's not really your job to listen to them lol. But I'll post them anyway!

1. Wireless doesn't work in my house. I tried the wireless One controller anyway, even though the 360 one always disconnected randomly (even with new batteries). The One disconnects MORE. Pretty much in a constant state of pushing A and yelling "I DO SO HAVE A CONTROLLER CONNECTED YIU PIECE OF SHIT!!" So I'll be investing in the play n charge thingy (thanks to Achy for the info!), since it has a nice long cord. Fucking wireless garbage! 

2. Hubby has caught a bad cold or the flu, like he always does this time of year. I'm feeling like I'm catching it myself. Usually we are sick one at a time. This could seriously suck...us both being sick at the same time. 

3. I've been on antibiotics for this sinus infection for eleven days. It feels like a lifetime. 

4. Someone used hubby's name and SSN to claim unemployment. No one "official" seems to give two shits, including the unemployment dept. 

5. I'm still having the stabbing pain in my left temple that apparently is impossible to diagnose.

I think that's it.

Yeah...kinda fell off the face of the earth.  Wouldn't you know, it is round!  laugh

Holidays started off going batshit crazy trying to get everything lined out for the new car.....then the wait in anticipation for him to get back from the holidays to finalize the transaction.

May I present to you...unobtainium in the USA (well, ok...there were maybe 20 road legal chassis brought in), my new (to me) Ford Escort RS.  

[url=https://flic.kr/p/qB5puf][img]https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7465/161494... 

And par for course, as soon as I got back from vacation...the 60+ hours a week started up again at work.  One of these days...maybe sometime this summer.

Great to hear your wife's arm is healing nicely w/o needing further surgery.  That's freaking awesome!

Glad you made it through the holidays alive Kit.  Stay strong!  laugh

Sounds like a hell of a trip OS.  A memorable one for sure.  You'll laugh about it a few months from now once your body forgets the aches.

That car looks fast, I kind of wish the photo was just a bunch of trees denoting that its even faster...or I feel like I got a speeding ticket just by looking at it.

Or some gold JPS striping.  wink

The wheels are actually going to be sent off to be refinished in gold w/ black lettering here within a month or so.  White is too bright for my tastes.
