Good evening everyone. TGIF!!!

Almost 20 pages to catch up on, not gonna happen. Not today anyway. I hope you're all well and the rest of your week has been great since I last saw you.

Who's ready for the weekend?!? I know I am!

What she said.
Hi all.

 

[mfraz25]

Just finished The Hangover 2. Starting In Time now.

 

[violetvoo]

Hi Sallie...good to see you!..

 

[MustangSallie]

VV! How nice to see you! I hope you've been well. We missed you.

 

[violetvoo]

thanks Sallie...I'm better now....missed you guys bunches too...

sounds like you've been really busy..

An updated family portrait.

I really need to get a couple mods I'm not afraid to beat up.

 

[MustangSallie]

Great collection Ben! That's why I love my ProVaris. I just toss them in my bag and go. Even with the lava tanks on them I don't worry too much.

 

[cba191]

My Provari isn't really a toss and go PV anymore though. I will get a mini, and at most, will paint it. That way, it won't kill me if it gets scratched or damaged. I keep the wench and the touchwood in my pockets, but they stay in little felt pouches.

Yes, very busy at work. 12-15 hour days. Actually, as much as I can stand without falling asleep at my desk or making stupid mistakes because I'm so tired. It will probably continue for a few more weeks. I knocked off early tonight, and I'm taking tomorrow off, but I'll be back at it again on Sunday. The manager on this project just shortened an already tight deadline by 4 days. I was told it was a "motivational" tactic. Is he kidding me? There are two other guys working on this project with me. One is working as hard as I am, and the other one is new to web development and is doing a fantastic job. I think this manager needs to go back to management training. As far as I'm concerned he's been nothing but a motivation killer. Every time he sends an email I feel like knocking off for the day, even if it's 8:00 am.

Yeah, I guess not! Good plan with the mini.

nice family there ben...

 

[cba191]

I need more Lava tanks though. I'm one short as it is, with 3 more mods (that I know of) coming.

he sounds awful!..
seems like those tactics are more discouraging than motivational...
Sorry you're having to go through all that....

what new mods?..

 

[efirdj]

One hour nap complete. Dinner over. Kids in bed. Beer is open. House is loaded up. Mancave in use. All I need now is a PS3 with some Assassin's Creed: Revelations.

Still working on vanilla James, hope you have lots of cartos, there are 5 on the counter now. tee hee. I'll pick the best 3 on Monday.

I have more than I know what to do with. They will be perfect for taste testing. I cant wait!!!!

I got vape mail today! Plus a tank. Ive modded one of my old CE2 Clearos. Im going to attempt a custom tank set up tonight. With House Blend. What else?

 

[cba191]

My plans call for a MiniVari, a Touchwood 18650 (for a Kick), a Micro Tank Grip, and a mini lavatube. That's it for now. I need to find a job.

sounds good...job's prob a good idea unless you;re independently wealthy...
haven't been to grip thread in forever...is he putting tanks inside grips?

Yup. He even flushed an Odysseus in one.

not completely flush, but the Lavas are flush.

Independent wealth would be nice, but alas, that isn't the case. "let go" is more like it. I have a couple months before the Grip and Touchwood are ready though. I should have a new job long before that.
