Happy Birthday Jeb! If you can become more healthy and get more sucess at your photography and be 10 years older than I am, it helps give me hope! Congrats on all your recent successes, you worked hard for them and they are fully deserved. Don't forget to smell the roses. (not the trolls....)
Ummm err I didn't mean horses...though yes, I have stayed up all night tending to colicky horses but they don't get sick on schedule...
I'm resuming a previous career on a p/t basis; like horses it's potentially quite dangerous, but unlike horses, pays well...*stocking up on No-Doz and energy drinks*
Wow! This looks like a good all 'round time for the TSers!
Change, excitement, happy about life, doors opening, life just rockin' along!
I sure am damn glad to be here!
I'm makin' a big ol' pot o' pasta salad for a picnic tomorrow......an appreciation party for a bunch of us at the church for hosting homeless for the month of December at our church to help the local shelters.
A rewarding, and all too enlightening experience for us all.
Makes you *really* grateful to have problems like not scoring a 6.0, or having trouble remembering to reset your ISO.
Happy Birthday, Jeb!! And you're only a day over 52. You'll feel it by evening. :-)
Thanks, Deb!
Funny things is......having had the bejeezes scared outta me by my doctor, and consequently losing 110 pounds and getting in shape, I feel better than I have in about twenty years.
I'm going to go buy *another* new belt today......ten inches shorter than the one I was wearing when my doc said "Change or die.".
Gotta love that!
Oh.....in case anyone cares, I've updated my bio now that I've been here two years, Here
It's heartwarming and a little humbling to know that in this crazy, screwed-up world there are a handful of people with their priorities straight, and they just happen to be right in the same "Sweet Home" with you.
In the past couple of weeks, I have received chocolate from both krnodil and melethia, and I can now say without hesitation that these are the two finest human beings in the history of humanity. Mere moments after delectating the final precious bite of Karen's chocolate, the mail brings forth European mannah from the heavens of Deb's generosity.
I know that as your Fearless Leader, many of you look to me for examples of fine behavior, the sort of thoughts and deeds that will put you on the path to true happiness. Well, you need look no further than these two paragons of virtue.
Let us all bow down to these heroines, nay goddesses, of Team Suck.
You do know that I actually had to go to Belgium to get the Belgian chocolate, right? And of course the German chocolate came from Germany. Couldn't fit Switzerland into the schedule.... maybe next time! :-)
Okay boys & girls, I need you to wish me PILES and PILES of luck tomorrow.
I just called for my FIRST job interview in almost 7 years !
Well now - that was a complete and total BUST.
The manager I was supposed to talk with was not there, in fact, had left at noon !
What was the manager thinking, leaving before he/she had a chance to meet the best-est employee ever, are they insane??
Did you at least get a chance to talk to someone about a job? Did you set up another appointment with the manager. Did they at least apologize to you for the manager not being there?
so, i was standing on the arms of a chair, about to take a shot of the whole wedding, when the bloody camera wouldn't work. panic. checked the battery, changed the card, then looked at the front. little white light flashing... o, i put it into timer by mistake.
