The end of the weekend :/ Well atleast this is a holiday week... I work the afternoon shift and only work 3 days followed by two days off payed!
Plus I get to look forward to Sons of Anarchy on Tuesday "this really seems to be the highlight of my week" and then maybe a holiday firejam on Thursday.

What is everyone else's holiday plans?

Oh and anticipating Black Friday Sale for V4L... cause I really need some new Diamond batts, and maybe another juice since I currently only have BlackJack

Hope you feel better soon Morandir.

Hey Whistles, what's the holiday for? Is this to do with the 'Black Friday' sale people are hoping for? Oops, :oops: I guess it's Thanksgiving?

We don't have that in Oz, of course. :laugh: I always wonder how people can handle 2 big family type reunions & meals a month apart. Well, I guess after Christmas we have New Years, then in Oz we get Australia Day 26th January, but it isn't like the Thanksgiving stuff we see on American tv shows. It's more the bbq & beach sort of thing, if we celebrate it at all (I don't know anyone who does celebrate it).

Had a nice dinner out last night for DH's birthday. I went outside to vape, suddenly noticed a whole table of people staring at me. I moved behind a plant, turned around another another whole big table were staring. I choose to believe they were staring at my matte black diamond with green LED, not at my slightly goth outfit. The ecig went well with the outfit :laugh: People here really have not heard of ecigs yet, at least very few have. It was funny, though a little disconcerting.

I am officially OUT of the kitchen for Thanksgiving :) DH and I will have dinner where he works :) They have a huge buffet for all the students/employees who can't get home for the holiday and that includes those who don't want to cook a huge meal for two people (like us) :party: The only drawback...no leftovers :(

Randa, hope your dentist can help you because your symptoms all seem to point to dental problems <sigh> It's amazing how many things can go wrong because such a small part of our body, like a tooth, decides to go bad :(

Morandir, I am so sorry to hear about your ...uh... hmmmm, what to call that? "Statement" about work? Flu bug? Caffeine overload? Are you pregnant??? :lol: I had one job I hated so much, I would frequently throw up before leaving the house <shudder> I was never so happy as the day I graduated and could quit!! :) Yeah, I could have deleted his character with no problem...I have *NO* clue why he started up a new one because he is doing the same "run around all over the map" that he usually does :)

Whistles, Hutchinson ??? Kansas? Where? I haven't watched SoA...don't know why since it's so highly reviewed :) Dexter contains enough angst for me :p But, as for Thanksgiving plans, just kicking back and letting someone else do all the work :) Oh, and crossing my fingers that Northwestern gets a bowl bid <cheer> They've been coming on strong lately :)

Good Morning V4Lers!!!

Kids are out of school all week,wish me luck with that.Hubs and I are going to cook Turkeyday dinner together.That should be interesting.LOL!


My Dads out of the hospital and they gave him like $500 worth of prescriptions.He doesnt have the money and Lord knows I dont have an extra $500 sitting around here.I asked a friend to take him to the VA and see if they can help.He needs a breathing treatment machine and they changed all his meds.The pain meds alone were $100.I wish I could just pay but its just impossible right now.Everything I have is going to get us to Miami for my surgery and a small Christmas for my kids.I will probably end up helping some but I cant expect my kids to get nothing from Santa and be good with that.Its just bad timing.
 
Too many people to send sympathy to one by one, but you all have my sympathy. Sounds like a rough time for several people :(

Trying desperately to wake my brain up. I'm afraid I left it at home next to the tether attaching my eyelids to my pillow. I'd seek a caffeine fix, but that always makes my blood sugar crash.

Ms. Kanza don't think I'm pregnate... :) It's a mix of stress and fronts moving in and out that's causing this one.

Ms. Katz glad you had a great time at DH's bday dinner.

Ms. Keyzy hopefully the VA can help. Can this year please be over with soon? 2012 has to be better... Right?

You're tha man if you can gobble down a four pack of that stuff dude. It went down just fine. Tasted awesome as a matter of fact. Reminded me of Chimey(spelling) a bit, due to it's light fruity undertone. But man does that stuff catch up with me lol....

Kanza - glad hubby is doing better. Moranidr hope you feel better soon. Nothing like working all the time when feeling like crap. Kezy...hopefully the VA can help you out. I know it's frustrating when everything seems to hit at once. To everyone else, hope all goes well for you this week and Happy Monday:)
 
In a very lame shout out to Jeff Foxworthy:

If you are still tired and unfazed after being kicked twice in the face because it's "just another day"...
you might work in psychiatric healthcare.

Ok, that was lame. I'd delete it, but it still somehow strikes me as funny. Besides, as my friend's t-shirt says, by you reading this, you have allowed me brief control over your mind. :)

Uba sir dogfish head's beers avg 9% abv. Four pack of 10% is nothing. Four 20% beers, might get me buzzed if I haven't had enough sleep the night beforehand... :)

LOL...They had to wake me up to eat some turkey last night. I was out cold.....


Now we did slaughter 3 other 6 packs. But that's just sop when my cousin comes over to hang out. There was still 1 of the Harpoons left in the beer fridge this am.....it was daring me lol. It will die tonight!!

You couldn't possibly be pregnate, M'dir, because it's pregnant. :) But you couldn't possibly be that, either :)

But ugh...I hope you feel better. Nothing worse than ralphing.

Sorry, repressed English teacher...:)
