What RUINED your day today?

[Clitical Thinking]

Get well and listen to what staci said

I hope you feel better Love. That is awful. My best friend years ago asked me to sue Carnival Cruise Lines, after he fell on a slippery dance floor and messed himself up pretty good.


I sent out a demand letter, and they send me a copy of his bar tab. He claims he was buying drinks for everybody in the near vicinity, but it’s difficult to make a liability claim when your client had over $300 in cocktails delivered to his table.

There was a group of guys sitting nearby, and one said I should sue the bar. Told him I'm not going to do that for numerous reasons. They've had enough struggles with the pandemic, I love the bar, and I've been drinking.  If I'm going to sue anybody it would be the asshole or dumb bitch who spilled his/her drink and didn't clean it up or tell somebody.  To many people want to sue right away.

Thanks everybody, definitely going to take the hot bath and wine suggestion.

Heal up quick sweetie. Need you back in action with Big Ben your accounts are so hot.

No worries there, I've still got one perfectly fine hand and a mouth and a throat that needs practice practice practice. I could just lay back, and he can straddle me with his knees by my shoulders and... well... you get the idea

Your wish is my command.....   Besides soaking in the candlelit bathtub thinking of hot cocks, as stace mentioned, how about if I gently massaged your sore butt and hip?

Seriously though, I hope the pain goes away soon and you will be back on the dance floor...

My ass and hip are killing me, plus my wrist is a bit sore. Slipped and fell last night and came down hard on my right side. At the time it was more embarrassing than painful, but now it just throbs. Went out to the bar with my friends and started to dance a little and slipped on a wet spot on the floor. Guessing somebody spilled their drink, and it wasnt cleaned up.  Didn't help that I had a few margaritas in me.

Must have been a sympathetic injury.  I fell in the shower tonight right through the shower curtain slamming my ribs on my side into the toilet.  Coincidentally, I too had a few margaritas with Grand Marnier floaters.  I slept a couple hours, and now I’m up at 2:30AM my side killing me, just took some ibuprofen and washed them down with another margarita.  The only interesting part was, I wasn’t alone in shower.  I lay on the floor, and we both laughed for several minutes a little muted as her mom was in the guest room.  I finally was able to get back up and into the shower to wash the soap off, and then watched her wash out the brown dye job that started the whole shower scene I had joined in the first place.  Then later I got bitched at for not cleaning up all the water on the floor.  Hey!  Injury here!

Hope you feel better.

Hurt while having fun in the shower? That should take some of the pain away from your bruised ribs.  Mrs W puts a non slip mat down for those moments. 

Hope you feel better.

Geez, with all these injury reports I think I'll just spend a few days in bed to make sure I'm not next 😲 🤕

Like a lot of people I am working from home. I have two screens hooked up to my PC. On one screen I have two VPN's and on the other screen six websites. One of those sites is where I do most of my work. So, if you add in KB or youtube, flipping between those sites and my main site, the main site will get jealous and time itself out after just a few minutes. No biggee because I usually catch it about a minute.
However, we now have two new supervisors that are watching the motherboard like a hawk. The very second that the main site times out they send you an IM "What is going on?" On top of that, they are listening to calls and critiquing and Monday morning quarterbacking.
Maybe in a couple of weeks the leash won't be so short.

Yesterday I was contacted by a guy I served overseas with and found out that one of the soldiers from our platoon had passed away from covid.

Whetherford was a funny funny man. he was from the south and had the thickest southern drawl I have ever heard in my life. Almost to a point where you think he has to be faking it. But he always ready with a smile, and was always ready with a wise crack or a joke.

He is loved and will be missed by so many.

Sorry you lost someone dear to you. One thing, memories never die.

At my age, I've lost many I'd been close to. I still savor memories of the good times we had.

For 50+ years, I had four friends from elementary school that I have kept in touch with.  Two men. Two women.  The five of us have been through thick and thin, have enjoyed a supportive relationship, but we also give each other shit like only long term friends can.  And as the only lawyer in the group, I’ve given them all a lot of free legal help through the years.

One friend died from Covid last year, then there were four.  Then another died from cancer in February, and then there were three.  Now it’s me and two girlfriends.  One of them called me last night to say she has cancer, and is having emergency surgery to remove tumors that look malignant.  Really feeling sucker punched right now.

MJ is taking some personal time to attend to family matters.  She sends her love and these finger paintings.  She is absolutely fine, but has a lot on her plate at the moment.  For her tranquility, she has requested no questions or comments, if possible.

Sorry toe, just seeing this now.

In Badlands today. Some road repair going on. Deal where you have to wait for a pilot car to take you through.

I was nearing the construction zone and a cute young lady was standing there with a stop sign. Knew I'd have to wait until cars going the opposite direction came through.

I noticed the lady was on her phone. I'd been back in the park where there was no service. So got my phone and was looking at Minneapolis news while waiting.

Next thing I knew, the car behind me gave a toot of their horn. Looking up, there was the pilot car ready to lead our string of cars through. The gal was laughing and I gave a wave and mouthed "sorry". She waved back still with a big smile on her face.

As I led the pack of about 20 cars, all I could think was, ' Yep, I just became another asshat on his phone in the car.

In 2016 after seeing a ton of buffalo in Yellowstone NP, Wind Cave NP and Custer SP, I got to the Badlands and was tired and headed to the free campground at the west end of the park.  A bunch of people were stopped because of the buffalo herd all over the road.  I’d seen enough buffalo, so to the obvious horror of all the gawkers, I just kept going in my big Dodge Ram.  Just as I suspected, the buffalo saw I was bigger and slowly got out of my way, maybe walleyeing me a bit, but they moved.  And, I got to camp and after setting up, got my much needed rest.

Why has eating out become so technologically challenging?

Last Tuesday we spent the afternoon in Baltimore wandering and eating, mostly seafood.  Trying to leave, it happened again (as in this happens to me all the time).  I couldn’t figure out how to get out of the fucking parking garage.  People were lined up behind me wondering what was this idiot’s problem.  I had to press the button for help getting garbled responses.  Turns out, I had to push my card in upside down.  Despite a picture telling me that, I just couldn’t get it, because it was so counterintuitive.  All the other card readers you insert the card  right side up?

Yesterday at the faux Korean restaurant, I had to (with lengthy instructions from my niece) take a picture of some abstract art on the wall to then see the menu on my phone.  Why can’t I just get a fucking paper menu?  If my niece wasn’t there, I’d have starved.
