Yeah, those are Kitsune's ear muffs for his garage workshop. Anna was just having a miserable day -- screaming, yanking my hair, pulling my glasses off, scratching my nostrils -- so I grabbed the ear muffs to stage a photo.

Zip -- Im sorry about ur mojo!

Ali -- hope the kiddos are all in good health soon!

It sucks when you pour epoxy grout and the next morning you can push your finger into it
Next time you have to remember to make a sacrifice to the concrete gods. Don't mess with them.

Was the epoxy out of date or too cold or what?

There was probably enough heat from the chemical reaction for the center to set, but chilled before the outside could cure too.

Epoxy sets up faster and generates a lot of heat when it's all pooled together, when it's spread thin it takes longer. When I was glassing my canoe I put the scrapings into a quart plastic container, when it got to be about 3/4 full it suddenly set up and got too hot to hold. I dropped it and watched it foam up like mad and melt the plastic container to nothing. What a fucking mess.

Sucks to have to redo a job like that, Zip.

Ha ha ha, don't I know. I was building a fiberglass roof on my van, so I took a plastic bucket, dumped in a gallon of resin, stirred in the hardener for about 5 seconds and started for the scaffolding to slop it on. Three steps and the bottom fell out of the bucket.

There was a short lived instant coffee drink in a can that had some pull tab that you manipulated and a separate chamber of the can that contained a product like cement that quickly heated up and heated the coffee in the other part of the can. It never really took off because you had these big cans that were mostly cement with a little separate pocket of coffee at the top. They also weren't very green.

Pretty much everything, but specifically, sick midgets, and my ex husband being a dick about the big boys pending visit. He fucked up the dates to begin with, but he's now not acknowledging that Aden has a lot of study to do (probably because he's not educated himself) so Aden and he are bitching at each other.

It's nice that he hasn't seen them for over 2 years, but wants to fucking argue before he even sees them.

Fucking moron.

I think he's actually pissing me off. Not irritating me.

My motto is never, ever update if you are fine with the way things are working for you.

I've had to rollback too many times to ever fall for that update BS again.

Chrome doesn't always make it obvious that you are updating.

Agreed.

I'd still be writing in MS Word 5.1 (100k) if it would just run on my newest Mac (OS 10.4.11)
