What is pissing you off this time?

[xoxoxoBruce]

Power went off just before 11 last night, off and on 3 times in less that a minute then gone. Had to finish my drink by flashlight and straighten out my PC this morning.

Thought I was gonna hafta tie this dude in knot the other night. I don't think he realized just how hot, and serious, I was when I told him to STFU, and GTFO. He stuck his hand in his pocket when I got up right in his face, damn near nose to nose. I told him that what ever came out of that pocket better be something he wanted to get beat to death with. I don't think he had anything in that pocket. It'd been hell if I was wrong, though.

Another guy that was there said I took a pretty heavy hand with the guy, seeing as it wasn't my house, and all. I told him that the owner wasn't there, I have keys to the joint, and paid for part of the fucking place, and if he didn't like he could leave, too. He admitted none of it was really any of his business, but he would inform the owner what went on. I offered him my phone, and said "Speed dial #3, or push the face button and say "Call Joe."

He declined.

This was almost a week ago and I'm still a little pissed about it.

BTW, first dude is like five-ten or eleven, weighs all of 140 lbs. And 135 of it is mouth. I don't know how he's lived this long.

I don't know how I've lived this long.

People, man, pfft.

[BigV]

Some people take "Run whatcha brung" too far.

Funny, man.

Was alcohol involved?

Forget the porn thread. Where are the skimpy almost neked bikinis or the revealing dresses on women. Remember dresses? Women don't even wear a dress to church. Whats the use of dropping my Bible if I can't glance a beaver? How can I be popular on a motorcycle forum if I can't flash a maid in skimpy attire once in a while? I don't have a 'puter. I have to depend on the preverts here in the real world. Oh the ingratstitude.

Oddly enough, no. Well, I got good and drunk later. No sense letting him spoil all my fun.

[Gravdigr]

I'm finding I have less and less tolerance for people as I get older. People just suck.

Prolly gonna bite me hard one of these days, too.

[captainhook455]

Do you work? Disability? I imagine you could live down thisaways cheaper than up there?

[captainhook455]

It snows about every 10-15 years.

Ok Jim tx me last night and said make a wish. Gee I don't know, a few thousand bucks, a pound of kush? No I never think of material things or even pray for myself , but others as they come first at least to me anyway..

So I made a wish, it wouldn't come true it never does for me. He said he is riding his Harley to Charlotte for his birthday.
Yee hah is what I wanted to say. What I said was....

Are you fucking nuts!!! Temps are like a blast furnace this year. No no and no. We went back and forth. He bring the bike on a trailer. Jim wants so bad to ride with me. I told him I will teach him.lol.

Mostly I told him to drive his Jeep and forget the bike. I haven't rode mine for 3 weeks. So anyone else live down south can tell him something. I don't want him to die and I would much rather drive to Charlotte then ride there.

[captainhook455]

For his daddies birthday.

[glatt]

Don't know when his Dad's birthday is, but this heat isn't going to last forever. And if you stay in the mountains, it might be tolerable.

[captainhook455]

This is in the Piedmont. I think I ride my bike. Hot shit weather this weekend, but 88 Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday with maybe thunderstorms in the afternoon. Its only 3 hours to Charlotte from here, but I doubt dad lives there. No one but welfare lives in Queen City.

If that was for me...

I used to trim/remove trees. One day this dude says 'I want to buy you out of business.' I says 'You can, if you want to bad enough.'

He did.

Other.

People's.

Children.

Thanks to my downstairs neighbor, I am now severely allergic to smoke. As in, if I get over-exposed, I may lose the ability to breathe. My awesome biker neighbor is extremely concerned about this.

There is a 3,000+ acre wildfire burning just a little bit north of where I live. Official firefighting policy, as announced last week, is "we're building miles of firebreaks to protect high-value private properties. Everyone else, wait for rain." Which, at this time of year, should be here around about MAYBE mid-September.

All three of my allergy meds are failing. My MD's options are limited to advising me to get out of any fire-prone area until autumn, which is going to be a tad bit impossible on my budget (currently about $275 a month once my bills are paid). I would have to go to my old stomping grounds, northwestern Oregon or the Puget Sound area, to make this happen. My health insurance will not go with me. At least three of my medications are illegal to mail.

Yesterday, biker neighbor was trying to respond to a hard, urgent knocking on his front door. He thought it was my roomie trying to get me emergency help. He fell on the hip he's probably having replaced in September, also nearly ripping a 2-inch strip out of one of his tattoos in the process. To clarify: he was already walking with a cane and spent most of the rest of yesterday in bed. And the 2-inch strip that DID get ripped out of one of his arms missed his favorite ink by about 2 millimeters.

It was some f*kkin jerk kids who don't even live here. They came up and cop-knocked my door too. They run around with the spying, tattling 7-year-old who calls the downstairs apartment with the awful neighbor 'home' now because she's spent more time there in her life than with her actual mother. This whole group of kids are now stealing things, throwing rocks at windows, teasing pets, and treating our concrete-and-steel staircase as a playground when there is an ACTUAL PLAYGROUND open for their use right across the street.

My biker neighbor thinks his getting hurt is going to be sufficient to get the new management team off their asses to inform parents that even guests' children ARE NOT to be unsupervised on the properties. Seeing as how that hasn't worked yet in the 10 years I've been here, I'm flat out of optimism.

I have a referral from my MD to see an immunologist to find out if there's anything medically possible to keep me safe during fire season. If I'm lucky, I might get to see her by Christmas. With nothing but breezy, dry, 90-degree days on the foreseeable horizon weather-wise, nobody thinks I have nearly that long.

The only kid we're sure isn't involved, ironically, is the older of the 2 who actually DO live in this building--he's currently super-mega-grounded and hasn't been allowed to play with the problem kids in almost 2 weeks.
