What is pissing you off this time?

I try to Don't Worry, but, I'm still working on Be Happy.

Whoever is doing it, worrying doesn't do anything. If you can get by without it, well, it's just one less thing to do.

[Pico and ME]

Worry motivates me to solve problems. That is to day, when I have anxiety, I worry on how to eliminate it.

Maybe he's been hogging the bartendress' attention to the ire of other patrons.

Plus, the numbers work against me. I'm there literally 3 - 7 days a week. Since the place opened. So odds are something's gonna happen involving yours truly sooner or later. A lot of those times I was first one in, and last one out, too.

Not once has any trouble at all come from what I'd call 'regulars', wonderful ppl like myself who are there a lot. The trouble almost always has been the ppl stopping in off the interstate, or ppl who rarely come in.

Oh, and there was a screaming fit Baby had in there once. It was directed at me in return for some perceived slight or another. It happened there because that's where I was when she found me. Heh, she called me everything but a white man that night, good times.

That's prolly not good for business.




It ain't just me, either, I've seen a lot of shit go, or almost go down there. And the other couple bars in town, too. It's like...shit happens in bars.

[Gravdigr]

All this bar talk and fighting talk's got me all het up, now.

Ima go beat off to Roadhouse.

You should get free beer for providing entertainment.
But it seems to me that 3 to 7 days, and opening to closing, is a recipe for sclerosis. Take care of yourself, OK?

Do you think his tissues are going to start hardening from sitting on a bar stool for too long?

Perhaps of greater concern would be liver cirrhosis.

Well, Monday thru Thursday they open at 4pm, and close at 9pm, so it's not quite as bad as it sounds. But thank you for caring enough to say something.

What you said to that guy was a smart alec thing to say - but it wasn't a deadly insult, or affront to his honour - it was just a smart alec thing to say. He had the option of giving you the finger and then ignoring you. Instead he chose to swing his fists.

That wasn't the recent incident...We just got kinda loud that time.

I thought so.

Dear pineapple, and squash:

Fucking fear-driven gas shortages. Not an actual shortage, but idiots thinking there will be one, assholes literally filling garbage cans full of gas in the back of their trucks. Half the stations out of gas, the others with a line 12 cars deep.

And I'm down to 1/8th of a tank.

I can pick the kids up from school with that, and stay at the house all weekend. But my stepson also arrives tonight, meaning I have to drive him back to Houston Monday night, which is a full tank's worth of gas all by itself.
