  1. ::takes daft one’s car to be inspected::

    Daft one (calls on cell phone): How’s the car?

    BW: Almost done, but babe, they need to replace the muffler. It’s all banged up and loose, like you backed into something, or someone backed into you…

    Daft one: Oh, yeah. I backed into something.

    BW: :bash:

    This is why I love our mechanic, who takes the daft one in stride.

      *giggles* “How’s the car?” Man code for: “Did I damage it?”

    2. BronxWench

      Exactly! Honestly, I love my daft bugger, but he can be a trial sometimes. :lol:

       

  2. Well, Mom’s home from her visit to the UK, and the daft one’s old boss passed away, so I get to go to a wake tonight. 

    I owe so many people reads and reviews… I’ll catch up, I promise! :blush:

      I hope you Mom had fun, and also, I hope this evening will go as well as these things can. *hugs*

      Mom had a great time, although Letchworth Garden City is much quieter than London. :) I think she missed the shopping…

      The former boss was a good one. He had his faults, but he treated his employees like family, and looked out for their families as well.

  3. ::sighs:: Fourteen months without any issues, and the corgi lass had a small seizure today. I know it’s bound to happen from time to time, but I’d begun to hope...

      My corgi lass is home, and I’m so happy to have her back with us. The neurologist is fairly confident it was a dosage adjustment that’s needed, so we’ll see. In the meantime, I have my furbaby back. :2tubs:

      So, one small seizure last night, but the rest of the night was peaceful. I’m hoping it was just the IV meds wearing off, and the oral meds will kick in properly. My poor wee girl...

  4. Happy Birthday to the lovely and very special KoKoa_B! ::hugs::

      We will wear t-shirts proudly bearing our disclaimers, and ruin childhoods wherever we go with stories based on old and almost forgotten TV shows!

      I hope things get a bit easier for you soon, and the car ends up okay *hugs*

      Dealerships always seem to offer the worst service. Hope your car-ma improves.

      I'm very much in agreement, George. I may prod my neighbor's mechanic and see if he'll take on my Jeep. I'm post warranty now anyway, so...

  9. So, yet again, the damned refrigerator has decided keeping things cold is not its role in life. Parts are on order, and contrary appliances will be shown their place. In the meantime, I have another fridge in the living room. :headdesk:

      D'oh! Hope it's fixed soon.

      I really shouldn't whine, since I do have a loaner while I'm waiting, but it's just awfully crowded. And awkward. Oh, well. Cold things are cold, and that's what counts.

  10. Chapter 1 of Masking Intentions is up.

  11. And now Keith Emerson, too. What a dreadful year.

    1. Melrick

      Melrick

      And Jon English. He won't mean much to non-Australians, but he was a long-time icon of Aussie music and he died a couple of days ago, which was a huge shock.

  13. The curse of 2016 continues. Paul Kantner of Jefferson Airplane is gone. :(

      I feel like cuffing DEATH around the lughole... *repeats: "..there's no such thing as The Rapture.."*

      Thank you all. It's funny that it still trips me up sometimes, but there we are.

  16. Rest in peace, David Bowie. The world is a little quieter, and sadder without you.

  17. To all celebrating it today, Happy Thanksgiving! Let's hope we all have reasons to be thankful as the Wheel turns.

      As my dad always used to say sometime after my birthday, "Happy Unbirthday!" This may be the only reference to fantasy literature that he has made in his lifetime.

  19. Happy Birthday to our very own GemonGoddess061! Have a great one, DG! :D

    1. JayDee

      JayDee

      whoa! DG had another birthday? It seems to happen every year now! Well, hope you have a nice day DG.

  20. I'd like to give thanks to all our fine veterans, because you've given your all for us, and I, for one, am very grateful and humbled by you all.

  21. The blessings of Samhain to all. May the coming year be a good one for us all.

      Thank you! I'll just ignore that cold white stuff that will arrive sooner than I want, and stay longer than I care for. :D

  23. A belated but very heartfelt happy birthday to Dafdes! I hope the day was wonderful for you, and may the year bring only good things.

    1. JayDee

      If it's belated then we can wish a very merry unbirthday as well!

      lol, thank you! :) I got chocolate, so was happy. Still not forty yet.

  24. ::takes deep breath:: Mom's wrist is NOT broken after all, and the corgi has been seizure-free for a week. I might actually get caught up with all the things I've been putting off...

      Thank you! The corgi has other plans for me, mostly involving feeding her and petting her, but I'm getting there!
