Sounds like a fun new project. The van that is, not fireplace cornice's ...

Anyways, I'm bored. And just want to say "Whhaaaaaaa"! I need a new job. That is all.

ya' know...y'all were talkin' Maker's just when i was in an airport bar seeing my mom off after a very tense four days (and don't y'all get all Freudian on why me and my mom are tense...) and all i wanted was Maker's...inexplicibly. but i knew she'd notice the tab (maker's is not cheap) so i ordered beam.


bummer.

Sorry I missed you Tish. I was writing a cover letter and fixing the resume. I actually wrote a cover letter. And I actually sent it with my resume in an email to a company. Oh, know I'm just crossing my fingers. I hope I hear back soon.

Well, off to bed. Good night!

Morning, can't stick around got to get to work,.... yes blue I am already sick of working. Oh if we could all be rich, " sigh " Jut taking it a day at a time and next I know years will have passed.

Think I'll buy a lottery ticket today.

Nipples, the van sounds a thing that was meant to be good luck with it.

Tisha I am so happy your doing better, and are spending more time around here again, we've all missed you.

Blue, I don't know if I'll see you tonight or not I'll have to see how I'm doing after work.

Have a good day people!

about the gasket...

haven't blown mine yet, but close.

auto update....

broken intake manifold (plastic) due to heat.
2 oil changes to get all the anti-freeze out.
a new starter because the gear housing cracked.

$807.37... so now you know where my burning man money that i haven't yet earned has gone.

off to the fuck thread.

I might just follow Joel to the Fuck page... Double-double buttchew at work from the time I got here at 7:something until a few minutes ago... in all fairness I knew part of it was coming, but still...

It's like having a duct-tape bandaid ripped off... And this is the first I've been able to get over here all day. Damn, I need a drink. Hmmm... still a couple old-fashioned glasses with amber liquid on the bar? What's this?...

(Picks up shotglass, sniffs carefully, big grin on face!)

Makers!! Aw gee, someone cares!! Thanks, hon! That's the wierd thing about Family (and Whisky >>giggles<<)... there's a kinda psychic bond that develops. And speaking of MM, I gotta head to Costco and start my bottle collection for the trip. After all, what if I set up camp and some friends drop by? >winks & grins<

Hey Joel, I know it's not long green, but I'm sending you a lot of hugs and thoughts of imminent and unexpected prosperity your way. Don't look at this car thing as a fatal error; think of it as... lessee... thinking of the right mental picture... not a challenge... lessee... A gnat. Yeah. You got weeks and weeks to not only get the car back on it's feet but get up to the playa, too. Y'know, worse comes to worse, I'm sure you can ride up and back with someone. Serious about that. The thought of one of the famaglia not being there, well... *That* breaketh my heart!

OK, maybe it's 'cuz I'm too close to Berkeley, but I do a lot of this creative visualization thing, and I'm visualizing you on the playa with buku water and goodies and a strong set of wheels and extra green in hand... Don't laugh, I've seen it work...

Tell Nipples I get it now... I thought the Aluminum was reference to the Airstream (which are almost as bad)... Hmmm,,, Steel and Aluminum and Alkali. Yuck!! My Chevy Truck has those Alum, door panels, absolutely worthless. Especially after they've wrinkled a few times. And Fireplace cornices? Nice... I should pick up a cheap something, but there's just something about a tent in the heat and the dust... Maybe I'm part Bedouin?

Hey, thanks, all, for being here... Got a final tonight (Legal Research - Argh!) so wish me lick, er, luck, I better head out and get a little studying done beforehand.

If I survive I'll try to buzz back by later!

Hugs all...

Hey big sista. It was just a hard adjustment time over there on that other board. But you make your own decisions, hey?

You can come visit at my NEW place. The neighborhood rocks, and it's super close to Sensei's house, too.

I'm so relieved... I've not been terribly communicative lately, but that doesn't mean you haven't been in my mind and heart. One of these days when I'm answering my phone again, how about if I give you a ring?

I need to call up those other boys, and visit PDX soon.

Night sweet thang. Love ya.

huh, that bad? But at least you'll be makin' some money now.

Meanwhile, that job I was talking about the other day, doesn't have any positions open. So I wrote a whole long cover letter thingie for nothin'. I'm sick of being broke. Blah, sorry just blathering.

The other kids are nice enough to me but it isn't a very social environment, there is rarely a non work related conversation.

The work is no where nearly as creative as the late place was.
