My work week this week, Monday worked 7 1/2 Hrs, Tuesday 7, Wednesday 7. Thursday was tough, started at 4:45 AM worked straight threw till 2:15 PM. I had one 15 min break, just long enough to get a sandwich, and get moving again. Around mid day I was told to set up tables and chairs for a whole company meeting for noon today. When I got off I had to go to my doctor to find out why they did not renew my blood pressure med prescription. I ended up having an exam right then, so did not leave there till 4:30. I then needed to go get my prescription at the pharmacy near where I work, and did not leave there until 5:10 PM. Then it took me a little over an hour to get home. Then sometime last night, sitting here in front of this computer I fell asleep, (I never do that) woke up around 11:00 pm, and went to bed properly.

I thought the meeting today was going to be about insurance, 401k and the Xmas party all in one, it wasn't. The owners of the company announced that they had sold the company to another thriving and growing Mechanical contractor. I was really kind of shocked, in a way I knew it would happen at some point. My first impressions are good of the new owners, our company has not really been busy in a long time, and these guys are young and ambitious, so I think I might be back on 40 hour weeks soon. I have worked here for 36 years, and I don't like the idea of trying to find another job at 58 years old, so anyway the next few months are going to be interesting. One of my co-workers was talking about the insurance we are going to have, and said it sucks. Something about $4,000 out of pocket per year for a single person, and they will match $1,000 per year put into the account, that just sounds bizarre. I just needed to share this weird week I had.

Hoping the new owners bring prosperity to all.

When I first started here we were a small growing company, that at one point had grown to 300 employees in just about 5 years or so. Then the original owners sold, then over the years we down sized back to a small company again, to around 34 people. I just want to be busy again.

Motley Crue: Decade Of Decadence - side B

 

[FringeChief68]

Thou shalt not kill
Thou shalt not die
Cry!
Last fire will rise
Behind those eyes
Black house will rock
Blind boys don't lie
Immortal fear
That voice so clear
Through broken walls
That scream I hear
Cry, little sister! (Thou shalt not fall)
Come, come to your brother! (Thou shalt not die)
Unchain me, sister! (Thou shalt not fear)
Love is with your brother! (Thou shalt not kill)
Blue masquerade
Strangers look on
When will they learn
This loneliness?
Temptation heat
Beats like a drum
Deep in your veins
I will not lie
Little sister! (Thou shalt not fall)
Come, come to your brother! (Thou shalt not die)
Unchain me, sister! (Thou shalt not fear)
Love is with your brother! (Thou shalt not kill)
My Shangri-Las
I can't forget
Why you were mine
I need you now!
Cry, little sister!…

It has been ONE WHOLE week since I have graced the hallowed halls of ECF LOL @Bronze, did you miss me or were you like, "Something's off there's this weird high pitched squeekey voice that's somehow gone?" LOL.

I was nesting. I am very serious when I nest. It's gotten so bad, I think I might be pregnant... with a bunch of mice. In which case I plan on doing some mouse vaping experiments and like, it's not hard, I will ask for millions of dollars, release the mice free into the wild. I will then watch them get eaten by a bunch of cats, and publish the headline "Youth mice get eaten by vaping cats" and a bunch of cat memes.

I could be on the cover of times.

I am shocked, amazed, call it what you will but I was also even EMBARRASSED at what came. Oh, snus (yes, I needed it although a Bad Thing Happened with it, I will spare y'all because this thread is like, pure or something) lots of STUFF TONS OF stuff and I freely admit I bought a red, shiny metal Minkin v3 that is even UGLIER than the black rubber one (it' look's like Escher's version of the English Post Box) but it was supa cheap and the vape is great.

I have had time for nothing... Nesting is HARD.

If the husband doesn't get here for Christmas I am going across the border and finding a Mexican to marry. I can't do all this work OR do it all myself. I think the husband feels the same way, only maybe with more pain. IDK.

SO BUSY.

Also, my new phone ,those guys "Verizon" guys should be taken out and shot they have messed up my entire "data" system. I better have the ability to do notes tomorrow. Argh..

Christmassy holiday weeks they be very busy everyone is subconsciously trying to kill their relatives. One kid of mine (a favorite I might add) did something so UNSPEAKABLY awesome, it may ripple among the family for years to come. It was so great, I can't even mention it, it could be identifying. I told the mama to have the po po on speed dial (although you know, dialing 911 not so hard) it took me an HOUR and a HALF of like, laughing, handing parents tissues, and I got to swear a lot and also cite lyrics from "I'm on a Boat." Which is one of my favorite things to do. I pointed out the mixed messages the youth of our society receive and it's like, hard .I pointed out the last line, IIRC was, "I Fed a MERMAID," or near the end and etc. It's a strange world. Only I said the whole word.

And... it was all surrounding a GODCHILD they are SACRED in this culture. Oh my. Thank God it's Friday.

The husband is never coming....

Some day I will walk out of a Vape shop without buying something
But today wasn't that day

Drag Nano by Voopoo!
It's Sooooo Tiny It's made to be put on a necklace and comes with a chain.



Here's mine

Can vape Salt Nic or Normal juice.
Integrated 750mAh Rechargeable Battery
Voltage Output Range: 3.2-4.2V
Refillable Tank pod thingy
1.0 ml with 1.8ohm coil
1.6 ml with 1.5ohm coil

 

[FringeChief68]

Oh and the VooPoo NANO is on SALE for $6.99

VooPoo DRAG Nano Pod Kit - Pod System

 

[FringeChief68]

VooPoo Review

Ok first off I paid more than $7 for my Nano
I don't mind paying a little more at a shop.

Solid little device, I mean it feels like a sold piece of metal.
You can drop this from a second story window and not hurt it, maybe even the 3rd or 4th floor
It's pretty light too
I took the pod out and filled it with juice and then I lost my Nano
I forgot I had it around my neck
So it's light enough to ware as a necklace and forget about it.

Has a nice hit
Vapor & throat hit to me, I would compare it to the Nautilus mini.

So far not a lot of flavor
But I think my juice might be part of the blame
I made this juice last time I was home, which was last Xmas
VG 70/30 PG so might be to much VG for it.
My other tanks give off a lot of flavor so it might be just me too.
I'm going to have to try a 50/50 mix or Salt Nic or a stronger tasting juice.


I like it so much I ordered a couple more, that and they on sale for $6.99
These are great for yard work, stealth vaping, courtroom, back of a police car, etc.

Might be a nice piece of kit for travel, I am going to look into this one a little more and maybe grab a few plus extra coils or whatever for a future trip we are going on...
