Tuesday!

MzHartz · Permanent Vacation

Good day all.

This morning I couldn't even make up my mind if I wanted to make coffee or buy coffee. Then when I decided I wasn't awake enough to make coffee (we don't have an automatic coffee maker), I couldn't decide where to get coffee from. I drove aimlessly until I stopped at a random gas station.

Mornin'

I have to be at the church a little before 10:00 for a church member's funeral. We're playing a couple songs during the service.

Good morning.
Hope it was decent coffee. We have QuikTrip gas stations and their coffee if darn good!

I've been awake since around 4am when Mr. DS left for work. For some reason, I just felt ready to get up -- could be the anticipation of my trip to see my mom.

I found out a few weeks ago that my best friend from HS grandpa is terminal w/ cancer and was given about three weeks. I may be attending a funeral while there. He was the custodian at the HS, and since she called him Grampa, I called him Gramps. Later, I found out that it just stuck with him by students until his retirement.

oh hello.

I best hurry off to work for our 9 am interdepartMENTAL meeting. If it just gets stupid and absurd, I will say "that is stupid" or "thats just absurd". I feel like being that way today. smile

Morning. I can see we are already having a day. The rain finally started falling on my way into work this morning. We need it. Apparently it has been raining down this way for some time already. I hope it makes its way to my house. My lawn could use a day of nice, steady rain to help it.

Shake your head a lot then start rubbing the bridge of your nose. I like that one a lot. Oh yeah, big sighs, too.

SIGH...shake head...rub the bridge of your nose...then say "Really? You can't be serious." That'll make it really fun. biggrin

Pambo · Waiting To Be Widowed

Oh yeah. It's raining so apparently it is moron day on the highway. I had one guy change lanes so close to me that I hadda stomp the brakes. About 3 minutes later, dude in a Lexus apparently wanted over into the long lane of traffic that he decided to cut me off...and stomp on the brakes again. hmm

What is it with the rain???

confuzzed · Permanent State of Confusion

Rain makes stupid drivers even more stupid.

It happens everywhere.

Pambo · Waiting To Be Widowed

Either that or it's "you're-old-now-time-to-die" Day for Pambo.

LMAO... channeling David and Chad from that meeting the other day? You know, I think if I had maybe spoken for 30 more seconds, David's head would have actually exploded.

That's what having birthdays will do to you.

Speaking of, although I'm still a puppy, I passed the magical age where I can feel honored if asked for my ID to purchase alcohol. The signs always say something like they card you if you look under 27. Since my 28th birthday I was carded twice, at the same place, on the same day. Nice.

There are certain advantages to leaving home really late. No maroons on the road for me, and the rain mostly stopped.

I don't get carded anymore...

My 21st birthday was on a Sunday... since I was already living in Kansas which at the time did not allow Sunday liquor sales, I decided to go over to Missouri where Sunday liquor sales were legal to buy something for my birthday dinner... walked up to the counter of the liquor store and wrote a check... pulled out my ID for the check validation, and the guy behind the counter said "Just write your DL number on there for me." I asked, "Don't you want to see my license?" He said, "No... I've sold to you before." My response was, "True, but today you are doing it LEGALLY!"

confuzzed · Permanent State of Confusion

I very rarely got carded. I always had that "older" look about me. About the only places I was carded was the college town bars and the big bars in downtown Philly. And I rarely go into Philly. If I go, it was usually for St. Patrick's Day or something big like that.

MzHartz · Permanent Vacation

I really didn't carded until I was well past my 21st birthday. One time Brian and I went to dinner, sat in the bar and ordered drinks (I was probably 20 at the time), and they carded him but not me!

Mad Mema · Bad Biker Granny

The first time Kev and I went out to dinner, the waitress asked him if he wanted anything from the bar. He ordered a beer. Then she asked him, "And what will your daughter be having?" I almost had an athesma attack because I was laughing so hard. MAN was he PIST!

Clearly, I did not look so much older at the time... I think the guy at the liquor store had me confused with my sister. At the time, we looked much more alike than we do now.

confuzzed · Permanent State of Confusion

That'll teach you to date older men.

Mad Mema · Bad Biker Granny

Should have been a sign, I will give you that. Killed me though... we don't even look related.

confuzzed · Permanent State of Confusion

Maybe the waitress thought he was running around with you and was trying to work on her accusatory tone. Like they do on tv and in the movies. You know the one: "you are not fooling anyone".

Mad Mema · Bad Biker Granny

I think she was just trying to call him a pervert.

confuzzed · Permanent State of Confusion

Could be.

WebGuy · Doesn't Do Windows

One more funeral over. Hopefully I'm done with funerals for a while.

I'll wait a little longer, then call the auto dealer and make sure we're still go on the van. If so, I'll take off here about 8:00 tomorrow morning which will get me there 11-11:30 ish. I've already got a lunch date set up with one of my friends there. It will be good to see him again.
