Copper Creek Chit Chat continued....

I would officially like to ask for a deep grape CC Flavor....Yeah me who only liked tobacco. That is all...

Normally I would "eww" at this. However, given how well FV captures other fruit flavors...you might be onto something. I'd beta test this.

So I started out my day by almost drinking a spider. It will get better, right?

I think it almost has to. WHere else could it go from there???

I like having my coffee on the deck. I went to take a drink and there was a huge spider in my mug. *still gagging*

Everything has to be somewhere, if ya think about it.

Is it too late for a nap? *yawn*

My rule is: It is never too late or too early for a nap if a nap sounds good. Everyone has to believe in something...I believe in this.

And the fun continues at home. Im sitting down, finishing up dinner, and my wife is in the kitchen cutting up a watermelon that she got on sale for $2. She's using one of my large kitchen knives. Yep.... you guessed it... I heard the sound of enough air being sucked through her teeth to create a negative air pressure in the house as my ears pop from the sudden pressure change... I sit my drink down because I know what that sounds means. She calls out as Im trying to roll off of the couch "JAMES! I CUT MY FINGER." At this point, Im still trying to stand up, and she says "James, I need you in here NOW." I move as fast as I can, which, right now is almost a stop, and shuffle into the kitchen expecting to see my watermelon ruined with a finger sitting in the tupperware. She has her hand under the faucet, all five finger still attached, not looking at her hand. She's gone pale, her teeth are starting to chatter.... she's literally about to pass out. I take her hand out of the running water, and I had to stifle a laugh (which she didnt notice) and I rolled my eyes (again she didnt notice). Turn the water off and hand her a paper towel to apply direct pressure to the 1/8 inch nick on her finger. At this, her knees buckle, and this is when the fun begins. Keep in mind, I cant stand up without my back shooting excruciating waves of pain through my back and my leg, and now I find myself trying to support my wife's full weight. No, she's not fat, by any means, but she's not MommyOfDoom tiny either. She lays her head down in an attempt to maintain consciousness while I put a bandaid around the cut. She calms down and goes to lay on the couch. As Im putting away the bandaids, she runs back into the dining room and sits down and puts her head on her arm with her finger stuck out too me. She said "Nope. Nuh uh. That wont work..." You could see the blood through the bandaid. Ungh... So I put a second one over just so she couldnt see it... Then she tried to stand up.... again, her knees buckled, and I had to half carry her, this time to the bedroom, because lets face it... if she did pass out, she would hit the floor.

What kills me about this, is the fact I have told her MANY many times to keep her free hand BEHIND the direction of cutting when using a knife. Maybe now, she'll listen.

Oh, and she's a hemo-phobe. She almost always passes out when she sees blood (usually just her own though).


For the most part, my back doesnt usually bother me. But the last couple of days have been inexplicably tortuous. Ive been walking around the warehouse all day lookin' like an 80 year old man... hunched over and a shuffling gait.


Ice cream and bacon jerky! Sounds like a perfect dessert! And I would have beat my wife and kids STUPID if I was only left with two pieces out of two bags. Then again, I wouldve bought four bags, and only brought two in the house.

Glad she's OK but it is kinda funny. It doesn't sound like your back is gonna feel better tomorrow either.

I think the dogs got more than me.

Since when are we not saying Provari in this thread?

What she said:

Night James. I hope you wake up with no pain tomorrow.

Okay, realistically, I hope you wake up with manageable pain tomorrow and that things in the Efird house start to calm down and get back to some semblance of normal.

 

[RickMc]

bwahahahahahahaha!!!!!

sorry James.

I'm sorry too...but it made a great story!

 

[FlyingV]

Provari, Provari, Provari, Provari, Provari!

I love mine. Right now I am sporting one with an orange/black tank and an orange j-wrap.

What the heck is "normal"? I dunno nuthin' bout no normal. +1 on the sentiment, though.

I need to go look at the j-wraps. I've been avoiding it because I think I'll find more than one that I like, which means I'll have to buy more Provaris.

 

[FlyingV]

He also does custom work.

I never say the P word. It causes arguments all over this here place.

AT some point I have to cave and buy a j-wrap. There are so many I like.... I keep eyeing them, but haven't pulled the trigger et. I worry I will go the same direction as Sallie and have to buy more P-words just so I can sport all the cool wraps.

 

[FlyingV]

pssshhhh. Provari.

 

[FlyingV]

I love you too.

Yeah, and just saying "the p word" is going to avoid that... BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

 

[MustangSallie]

I missed you guys so much. The enabling here is elevated to an art form. I promise to never lose my mind and leave the posse again.

 

[MustangSallie]

Ah crap, I just looked.
