The in-laws.

DucksNuts · 09-07-2009, 06:07 AM

I stacked down the stairs at work (totally ungracefully and noisily!!) and broke the heel on my new $100 heels...mother fucker was what I said.

Added to that, I tried to make a super quick recovery and make out that I had only stumbled a little...so I have been masking a swollen ankle, bruised arch and busted heel all day....

yeah, Im irritated!!

Oh and I had to clean up the cup of tea I threw over the handrail in the process of said stack.

Then I spilled my pasta lunch down my front and somehow didnt notice, so there are 3 new customers thinking Im a slop (which I am).

Soooo, Im a slop and a klutz apparently.

It's a holiday and I'm "off" work.

But I still have to go to my work place and feed the goddam cats.

I'd feed the cats if I could have them at my workplace!

And DucksNuts -- what's "stack" mean in that context? Fall? Stumble?

Cloud · 09-07-2009, 02:47 PM

my roof has sprung a leak! (mad)

This is actually from yesterday, but I was too exhausted to post ...

Directly across the parking lot is a public park. It is a lovely public park, with walking trails, a baseball field, a lot of green space, and a party pavillion.

The party pavillion is available for rental.

I thought that the park rules required your event to end at sundown.

I must have been wrong about that.

Were I right, the police from the station that is also my neighbor would have done sometime about the freaking mariachi music that was blasting from the loudspeakers at 10pm.

That's eight hours of party.

Enough people!!

Stack = crash.

This is why we need CCTV everywhere. Ducks, do it again! I wanna see!

Stack in this context was a 5 step stumble, followed by a grab of the handrail which prevented a pile of arms and legs on the floor

I have lower heels on today.

First we have a drought for two months... and now it's been raining for 4 freaking days straight. My back porch is an inch and a half deep, with no end in sight, and they're talking about flash flooding in other parts of the city. Goddamnit.

People that bought a fuel efficient vehicle too small for their needs and generally depend on mine being available, and now want to borrow it for a week to vacation in.

Enterprise will rent SUVs. Like $300 for the week. And they'll pick you up!

Pie · 09-12-2009, 08:52 PM

Yep, we rented a suv for our NC jaunt two years ago. Worked out very well.

jinx · 09-12-2009, 08:58 PM

I assume they know that.... but they've asked for mine. So I gotta be the dick...
