Hahhha ha ha. I don't think so.

I did find my lost mod from this morning, I was like "Where is my Siren/Smoant mod?" and had a vague memory of rising from bed, and something being flung VIOLENTLY off my person, ricocheting off my guitar, which fell, and then a bunch of noise.

I went back to sleep so it took me a bit, everything is fine, including the guitar. Which I don't plan on learning to play more, I think I paid like 20 bucks for, if the big move EVER happens, well I am going to find out what it feels like to smash a guitar. Or, alternately, donate it for the tax write off, I guess.

My Smoant Charon etc has arrived. I have not even opened the package. DHL packages are so AWESOMELY huge I kind of like to leave them around for a while, imagining a genie is inside. LOL.

When, I mean IF I am rich, well, SHOOT ANOTHER TEXT THESE TEXTING MILENIALS and their WAYS they can't just talk like a normal person.... I mean IF I get rich, I am using DHL ALL THE TIME.

The husband is all happy outside, and I have returned to this post with BATHROOM CLEAN.

I'm going to do yoga soon and the minute I start someone's gonna call and text.
I am pleased with my bathroom.

My Blu6 is 6 bay, charges 10440 up to 21700 batteries. User selectable charging rate up to 2 amps, 4 amps total.

It even has a bluetooth app so you can control and monitor it with your phone or tablet, lol.

I really like Xtar chargers too. I have an Xtar VP1 around somewhere........

No problem charging 21700s at 2 amp in the Blu6
My Xtar won't do 2a (for 21700s) but it's autoselection feature is damn convenient.
Both are excellent chargers.

Good evening fellow Shinies.

Been thinking today as to what to go for it [very big if] I can talk Mrs OG into splashing out on some vaping kit. Squonk gear or spare mini mod? Decisions, decisions.

Have been resisting the urge to start talking about computers, I cut my teeth on the IBM XT, and go back to the days where CP/M was common. Realise that I will probably descend into an incoherent rant [I am not a fan of Microsoft and despair what has happened to the IT sector over the years], so probably best avoided.

Might play around with some more coils tonight, or make some more 10ml juice samples. Or both.

Meanwhile as house chef I'm off to cook Frank's and beans. If anyone is into cooking, this guy [Chef John from Food Wishes] is brilliant. Great presentation, superb recipes, I've learned a lot from him.

Ah, you're a young sprite. My first computer was the then super powered CDC 6600, and lining up to hand my punch cards in to be run and then wait around until the printout came back to me. First language was FORTRAN. Big step up was getting access to the PDP 11 and an actual teletype keyboard. Those were the days....

Hey all, happy Friday. My gf picked this up at the box store today to help keep her nieces and nephew adequately bribed/rewarded when they come over to hang out at her place. I'd say she's good on candy 'til next year.

A few of those may have "fallen off the truck" after that pic was taken...

My first one wasn't near as glamorous. A Ti99/4a with a cassette deck.

3 kids AND you? I'd say she's good for 20 minutes. 25 tops.

Hey, there were no squonkers back around then. Besides, you weren't allowed to smoke in the computer lab. Not sure what they would have made of vaping back then, but my money is on never convincing someone is was just nicotine it was being used for.

Might last a week here, maybe. Probably not actually.

 

[Tralfaz]

The bag will be safely out of my house and on its way to her place later this evening. I regret to report that a few Snickers and Twix may have been lost in transit, though.

Kids would never have known there was 3 musketeers or M&Ms in the bag to begin with once it left my house.

...and yes I have no problem with stealing candy from children. There are no rules where chocolate is concerned.

Yep, yoga began... then the calls. Sigh. Somehow doing this with family is more exhausting. This chick is a TORNADO. Oh well, I guess I was too. Still, I will be happy when this one is like, locked up by her own hand or someone else's and or heavily medicated.

I guess I'm glad, I got the worst all over with in my early 20s thanks to well, things were getting exciting in the BAD way. I've never seen such a bunch of clueless, although I guess it's not fair because the HAVE done stuff and etc., and I had my own ex to deal with....

Still have not heard back from HR lady, and it's 2:30 here and she may not get back to me until MONDAY so it just so happens that oh well I may have to endure a weekend of "Guess what? NOTHING!! Not yet!" but hopefully that's good practice for my to do list, such as the kitchen here in an hour. It needs scrubbed. Tomorrow, errands and like YOGA for sure, and a meeting and I hope I SLEEP BETTER man.

Happy to be doing the deep CLEANSE on two main areas of my house but MAN I need to like, get all time manag-ey for sure starting with NOT oversleeping my alarm by 2 hours. Sigh.

Five pounds?

That's not enough.

 

[untar]

I see your bag of sugary stuff and raise you a piece of tarte tatin, still warm

 

[Letitia]

Well now it's time for dinner.

 

[NolaMel]

To heck with dinner, now I want to go to costco and get 100 pounds of halloween candy and anything from the bakery. I love to cook, but I wish I had someone to make me yummies like that tarte

 

[cdmcfud]

I'm going to clean it up, check orings, etc. Probably install the f2 coil. May try a new oring on the M3 but doubt it; flavor is great but coil is a little much for me. May try the M1 first but suspect that will be too airy for my taste.

One morning I found it completely empty so I cleaned up the mess and refilled again. I came back later and it had emptied itself again. It was differently leaking from were the atomizer was screwed on not from the glass.
I've only had it for about two weeks.

 

[Coastal Cowboy]

I am amazed at people who are perfectly satisfied using one or two devices and vaping the same vanilla tobacco flavor for years.

This guy's been married four times and changes cars like we change underwear but he won't turn loose of his old mech.

It's easy to make. It helps if you're a fast peeler though, there's about 11 small apples in there ^^
In an oven-proof pan (best with detachable handle) make a butter caramel, arrange the apples, cover and cook for about 10 mins. Then put the dough (pâte brisée, not sure what it's called in the US, it's a mix-flour-salt-sugar-and-butter-to-a-crumble-like-thingy-then-add-a-yolk-and-just-enough-water dough) on top and put the pan into the oven until the dough is done and golden. After taking it out cover with a plate and flip (careful to not douse yourself in hot caramel magma), done. If you have a scoop of vanilla ice cream to go along - good for you, I didn't have any
