I know, I know :) It's just tough to reign in my ... um...sometimes (hell, most of the time) inappropriate sense of humor. Comes from spending too much time swimming in a sea of testosterone. There are only 3 females in this house, and two of them are canine.
......I work at an equipment company.......I CAN RELATE!! Actually, my smart mouth quick wit is really more SELF DEFENSE than anything!!:laugh: Actually, they're a great group of guys. We're very lucky, we have just about ZERO turnover and most of us have all worked together for over 10 years. So we're really like family in a sense.

Ah Aaron, that just stinks.

lol My daughter was completely out numbered. Still is but not so bad now. She was the only female in house with 5 males... four sons right in a row. :shock: Now she's got two girlies to help even things up.

Wow...5 youngsters! I was so traumatized after my son was born, I opted out of doing that again.

Hey Kayte, days are long and taking a toll:(. I am getting too old for this!
Retirement looking good? :(

I'm sooo grateful that I can set my own pace for the most part. I'd be sunk if I had to show up at a job and actually function when insomnia rolls around.

I was actually just telling myself that today. Going to end up being a 19 or 20 hour work day. This is definitely a job for the young and single.

As we get older we are supposed to slow down and smell the roses..yadayada..I can't even get my watered! I know my poor DH is feeling single!

What would I have to have clicked to go invisible? I don't remember doing anything like that.
I was joking, Elf, I see you just fine.

I'm the opposite, there's my Dad and I was the first born, that's where the male line ends. After me came my sister and she had 3 daughters. Now the youngest (married) daughter is pregnant and guess what....it's a girl, due in September.

haha, I am pretty much always online when I'm at work. But my closest co-worker is 4 hours away and my boss is 6.
.....mine is about 12 feet away, her vice is FB.

I'm beat, can't stop yawning, so I'm going to call it a night. Goodnight lovely ladies :wub: and goodnight Aaron :toast: See ya tomorrow. :)
Goodnight Jerry! Sleep well.

I was traumatized by other peoples kids...I opted out before one!!:p

....that was me this a.m. - I believe I saw every hour of the clock from the time I went to bed until the time I got up this a.m. I know I shouldn't even look, because that only makes it worse. Then I calculate how many hours of sleep I can still get if I fall asleep right that minute......maddening.

Hi AB and Lori! And yeah.. I'm lagging a bit, too.

Wow Aaron. I hope those aren't stressful hours you have to put in! :blink:
I put in quite a few hours a day but they aren't stressful. I can flake out any time I need to.

Today isn't bad but some days are just crazy. I've hd to do work in St. Louis, Springfield, MO and Osage Beach all in the same day before.

I cover every theater in Missouri, and some in Illinois and Iowa

She has 6 kids... the 5th male is her husband. ;) They have four boys and two girls. She ended up having to have a hysterectomy after #4. She had one natural and 3 c-sections.

I'm sorry to hear your sons birth was traumatizing. :( Did you end up emergency c-section? I had two of those.

Do you have kids Aaron?
