I got a pod win here now, and it is the Mi One. I was figuring it was my OTHER win, the vapefly Galaxies RDTA but it's not.

I feel bad for not even doing much but opening the lid going, "I bet that is super easy to deal with but I am TOTALLY fried." I wouldn't have done much with the vapefly either my brain hurts.

I still want it, for future purposes. LOL. It's just I've been doing everything here and am about to do yoga and I filled a MED BOX for the first time in a couple years (totally hateful, totally useful) and frankly I am not equipped to do much more. Oh, I paid bills.

So I could take a picture of my med box it is NEW but like, uh, it's also boring unless you are the one USING it. Etc.

I am going to attempt to get 2 Weeks of business casual up there tomorrow and that might invite purchasing. So, not to derail the thread, but like anyone know a chain that caters to the terminally short and skinny without like, having dancing unicorns on the pants? I can't buy from Walmart (usually, I did this past week but it appears to be a fluke) plus like, Target here carries nothing small enough I am thinking maybe Old Navy I want some grey and some green pants and some boring sweaters, also cheapish?

Also, I am "home" and it no longer feels that way. I am officially a resident of the apartment in Sierra Vista, and like, I LIKE IT. Although man, winters gonna be COLD. I don't mind.

The husband wants to buy 38 acres in St. David (super cool town) and put a new manufactured home on it. I am not opposed. He tried to talk me into it by telling me I could "achieve one of my dreams, own a horse." I was like.... "Dood, buy the land if you want but I already OWNED a horse as an adult (2 actually) and I got rid of them because they are TOO MUCH WORK. Since you are scared of horses, I assume we won't be doing that and/or someone will have a dead horse on their hands." LOL one or the other.

Good day all.

Crappy, cold and overcast here in Toronto. Perfect for staying in and binge on food, Netflix and e-juice and perhaps a cocktail or 2 (or 10!). Currently watch the qualifying for the Mexico GP. Any Formula 1 fans in the house?
Yep, I watch as much as I can. I've been watching F1 since the sixties when you could catch a few races on Wide World of Sports.

You are good at winning contests. I've only won one, and it was for some Innokin mtl stuff with a Zenith on a CF mini and an EQ pod system. The pod isn't bad. Straight mtl. I tried a 45 mg nic salt in it and thought I'd cough my lungs up. Settled on mixing it with a 6 mg regular nic, came in at 12 mg and pretty decent. Flavor is OK, no real cloud, and it could satisfy me for say an afternoon.

As to the 38 acres, manufactured house, and a horse, it's the horse that will cost you more money over the long run. They're expensive and time consuming to care for.

I didn’t start getting into F1 until the early/mid 90’s. The time difference meant I was always missing the GP. Oddly enough, the first GP I ever set my alarm to was the 1994 San Marino GP – sad day that was. Started to devote time to F1 when young Jacques came on to the scene…for obvious support for a fellow Canadian.

Should be an interesting race tomorrow. But think anything short of a disaster Hamilton will clinch his 5th world title. We’ll see how nice Verstappen plays into that first corner off the start.

LOL no time for contests any more.

Horses are SO EXPENSIVE. I have no clue why my parents bought me one other than the whole "Noveau riche" thing. My mom made it so, my dad muttered darkly about like, "hobbies that eat."

I truthfully the only desire I have for a horse is when I become Joan of Arc for the vaping ban and ride up that long grassy stretch to Congress or whatever that building is called. And I plan on stealing one because I am fairly certain that I will be dead or jailed by the end of that protest and horse stealing will be the least of my worries..

LOL, I love that the husband snuck it in though, as if 28 acres isn't ENOUGH to worry about as it its, as if it would be some sort of motivator for me to allow him to own 28 acres or something. I will not be the one stewardessing it , let me put it that way. He'd have had more luck with me (although he got 100% luck anyway) letting me know he could own one of HIS dreams like a tractor.

Really must go shortly. God, I am TIRED. Yoga must be done.

I was going to say Old Navy, Princess 3 is a size zero, about 5’.She finds some stuff there. She also finds the pants that hit taller people mid calf/ above ankle make fine full length pants for her. She has a beast of trouble finding work pants. Hope you find something without a long hunt

Since we were discussing regional cocktails yesterday, this one goes out to @NolaMel. One of my personal favorites – the Ramos Gin Fizz. I usually get it frothier than this but I’ve kicked laziness into high gear today. Still mighty tasty though!

Vapemail incoming..... USPS is such a flipping mess lately!!!

Had 2 packages scheduled for delivery Thursday.... Neither showed up! 1 was rescheduled for Friday and did show up 2 old used eGrips piffed to me by another member. The other had been changed to unknown delivery date. A brand new old eGrip VT. Appears to be stuck in limbo somewhere between Chicago and Dallas. :yawn:

Out for delivery right now are 2 brand new old GS air tanks.

Scheduled for Tuesday.. a brand new old Innokin VV/VW V3 battery

Some odd and ends from FT . Out there floating around somewhere.

Renova Zero pod I won September 19 is apparently stuck in a crevice somewhere.:-x not holding my breath on that one.

How can that get any frothier? Looks good. Now I want one.

It was said that Henry Ramos use to shake the cocktail for 12 minutes – even went as far as hiring dedicated shakers to accomplish this. I much rather be drinking the cocktail than shaking it so I cheat from time to time. I’ve used a milk frothier, or a food processor with a whipping/meringue attachment. (blender does not work). But a good trick I’ve learned is shake for as long as you can, pour into your Collins glass and throw it in the freezer for a couple of minutes. Remove it from the freezer and make a hole in the top of the froth with a straw, now pour your soda down the hole. You end up with a head such as the pic below.

I’ve also seen bars use a paint shaker to make them.

I really freaking hate how my having less time makes me exponentially more organized and I do things faster. If I could do this sort of thing for MYSELF, I would OWN the world. Well, be at that Steve Jobs level, etc.

I have done MOST of the stuff scheduled for tomorrow, today. I MEAN. I now know when every med next needs filled. I have a grocery list and a shopping list AND I did yoga, AND cleaned all clothing.

Pretty much all that is left is like, shopping. Which is such a novelty I am almost looking forward to it. Thank God the provider I share an office with doesn't mind a full spectrum desk lamp (also on the agenda for tomorrow) because the building was an old cancer center of some type and it's mainly a bunker, they had to boost all the internet signals. Not so much light in there due to radioactivity and whatnot.

LOL, am just actually killing time waiting for my little sis to call. I could be rewicking some ego one coils, but lets face it, I have done ENOUGH.

Good to hear about Old Navy.

    Awesome review @bigbob2322 :wub: I'd find it hard to be impartial, but you nailed it.

    All I've done so far today is wicked a doggy (door open while priming :censored:ing smoke alarms ;)), showered (door closed) laundry and bought some work clothes online (chickens ain't fussy)

    @stols001 : Anna - get some sheep for your property, they are cute & fuzzy lawnmowers ;)

    I also have to use a medication weekly organiser. I always teased my parents about them, until I broke my ankle and damn well needed one myself :rolleyes:

    Howdy, havent been on for about 24 hours. Halloween stuffs with the toddler here. I've been walking around gathering candy in the cold rain for the last 2 afternoons. It's for the kid though, he loves that kind of stuff. Oddly though if theres a choice of a little toy or chips instead of candy he will take that instead. His aunt gave him a little baggy of fruit today and he was super excited to eat his apple and banana. Kids weird lol. Gimme that chocolate! I'm glad though, with the wife being diabetic we all limit sugar and unneeded carbs. Keeps her alive and me healthier win win.

    I've skimmed through the last 7 pages and the only thing that stuck is a drink with clam juice in it...:confused: Just give me a 4 finger scotch or some whiskey with sours, and syrup or syrup, orange bitters, lemon juice and more whiskey. A good glass of disaronno works too. Hell gimme a yuengling or rolling rock too.

    Vape mail came today, got the nibs for my fountain pen and glass for my smm serpent. I dont remember who was asking for pics of the build but I forgot...I went back and referenced Matt's video on his rta and built it to his standards and it seems to be ok so far.
