Title: *Blinks at the light....*
Post by: Bernie AKA on Dec 13, 2007, 03:03:09 PM
Happy birthday to everyone between October and now, congrats to Rama on the publication!  :headbang:  I'm not going to come on here and piss and moan, which is all I've felt like doing since then, career scores aside, so I've been absent due to not being in town and the following:

Went on a tour of my company's branches in Oregon, Dallas, Sacremento & San Antonio (only for a few hours, Nuri & Merla, and believe me I would rather have met you  :'( ) & got my promotion/raise/huge bonus - huzzah.  'Twill come in handy since Eddie's mother has been lying to us about going to the eye doctor for the past five years, giving the appointment money to Worthless Brother instead, and is now going blind from glaucoma & will need a companion for part of the week.  Disgust doesn't even begin to describe my feeling for this assclown.  Remember the guy who molested the toddler in Vegas and videotaped it a short while ago?  He looks just like Eddie's brother. Seriously.  :sick:

Two relatives, two co- workers (one each for Eddie & me) and one of the Houston Celtic community leaders have kicked the bucket.

One of our cats had to be put to sleep; possibly because of tainted Indoor Formula Meow Mix - the store couldn't care less.  Other cats wouldn't touch it.  Batch number is 7275TP080636.  I'm writing the company.

Didn't get the butthole who went around shooting cats in Galveston convicted despite many letters to the DA, but think he's left town.  Theatre preservation battle is not going well - looks like the landlord is going to let structural problems go unchecked, then pull a sad face in a few years and say he didn't have a choice due to the condition of the buildings.  Please, God, let me win the Powerball drawing and buy his daughter as a slave if I can't save the theatres....

On the plus side, Eddie & I renewed our wedding vows in a Victorian ceremony at Dickens on the Strand in Galveston last weekend.  A little more dramatic than the first time at the courthouse, considering the presence of the St. Thomas Pipe & Drum Corp and a faux Queen Victoria, though there ain't nothing wrong with Judge Dale from Animal Cops: Houston.

And finally, there are actually some decent Tin Man fanfics going around.  And the final DVD of Le Chevalier D'Eon will be on my doorstep next Wednesday. ;D

Worthless brother took his mom's doctor money and now she's blind? Someone needs to fucking kick him in the balls.

I think it was the other way around.  Her mother in law was giving her eye doctor money to worthless bro.

Seems like you were busy.... to busy for us.  :'(

You mean the eyes.  Unbelievable that the woman would let herself go blind.  Good God.


Good to see you're alive, Bernie.  The Sphere welcomes you back to her warm, tender bosom.

*revels in downy softness*

When I get extremely stressed or sick, I do what needs doing and then hole up; probably a reaction to my mother wanting the entire family at her bedside if she farted off-key.  Think of a sick cat.  I'm sure I'll end up as a news story in fifty years when neighbors finally notice two week's worth of papers in the yard.  :P

Unless said brother was taking the money to pay for life saving treatments to his cancer or to feed his starving family (I doubt either was the case) then he deserves a good ass kicking I'd say.

A good eye kicking!  Hammurabi would agree with me on this.

Only if that would blind him.

That's why you wear golf cleats!

Ok...but can we at least say they were baseball cleats even if they are golf cleats. It'll make me feel better.

Thanks - all better now!  All the shopping is done and I've gotten 4 bottles of wine from co-workers as presents today. They'll come in handy after the Xmas Eve FFF.  :P
