Lamplighter, as much as I've missed you, it's sad to see you back under these circumstances. I mourn with you. Sometimes our dearest and stoutest friends, seemingly immune to everything, they could always take the heat and still deliver the blackest news. Coming from them, it was somehow better, we welcomed them. We would let them pour out their insides to us, and it warmed us to do so, despite their appearance. So stable, so strong, seeing them fall to pieces from an unexpected shock leaves us feeling broken.
But please don't despair, some morning Joe will come again, and you'll cup him in your hands, bring your face near, and feel that welcome warmth once again. |
For quite some time they've been putting cremated people's ashes under tremendous pressure and creating man made diamonds out of it. Some local pottery maker should be able to powder what's left of the old cup and incorporate it into a new handmade one even if only as an added design feature.

Not today, but last night...
Wanna know how to really spice up a Cub Scout campout with 30+ families? Two separate rattlesnake sightings. |

My son was camping last month and had gone to bed when he stretched out and felt a snake in his bag. Just a rat snake, but it caused much excitement. Can only imagine a rattlesnake. |
Oh, and I took a really really tiny piece of wood to the right eye while helping a friend cut down a tree earlier.
Hours later, I finally got it out. Now my vision is alternately blurry in my right eye as I blink. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr |

If it's still funky tomorrow, go to an eye doc and he'll put some shit that looks like mustard in there. It'll feel fabulous. Like gasoline.:o Seriously, there's some stuff in trees that can wreak havoc with the stuff in your eyes. Some kind of fungus or somesuch. If it don't straighten up and fly right pretty quick, I'd go for the mustard looking stuff. |
Thanks - still feeling funky. Dunno if I did something to the eye or the lid, but damn its a PITA right now.
|
Owww. If you'll forgive the pun - I'd keep an eye on that and go to a doc if it doesn't abate.

ymmv, of course... Also: Sucks about the latest round w/the ex, dude. |
Feeling much better today, thanks guys. Used the eye as an excuse to get out of work a little early. Leaving at 2:30pm saved me a TON of time driving back from Marlton NJ.

Well played!

We have termites in our house. Thank fuck the thing is steel frame or I'd really be upset. Mainly just two locations inside and one outside, both only a few months old. $2400 later. :( Why is it that shit just keeps piling on shit here? I would love it if my house got squashed by a meteorite and I could claim insurance. There is so much dodgy shit here it's not funny and I am fed up to the eye teeth with being the one that has to deal with everything.

Be thankful it was termites, every other critter down there wants to kill you. :haha:
|
Ouch. Sorry. :(
