DanceTheJig728 Our Fishman, Who art in rhombus,
W00kie be thy name.
These hippies come With guitar and drum
On tour as it is in Gamehendge.
Give this day our daily toke
And forgive us our WSP stats
As we forgive spreadheads that come to our Phish shows.
Lead us not into the Biscuits
And deliver us from Umphrey's.

Yestaday

@JohnnyD- hopefully that giant baby shower is filled with awesome food. In my experience the food blows, but you would think the opposite considering they're pregnant, right? Eat cake. Oh, and a dinner club, eh? That's sweet!

bakestar08 Morning Ya'll! Got the best news in the world last week so I will be seeing ya'll in NYC for all four nights!!!!! Looks like hard work and hounding ignorant scalpers has paid off once again!

Any of ya'll have those mornings when you are actually off work for once and realize that smoking a bowl at 8:30am is the best idea you've had all day?

I am sick as a dog. Dragged my ass to work for a half day... leaving at 11. Then rotting in my bed to rest up for an exciting weekend. This cold/flu is weird... I actually felt better Tuesday night. And then last night, I was hit by a ton of bricks. I hate being sick.

So, work food...right? I accept anything and everything, however I usually end up wrapping said morsel in tissue and tossing it. People are sketchy. Today a guy brings in cookies. Sends me a msg "hi, want to try cookies I made". I go..ask what kind they are and I get the ambiguous response of "cookies". Instant red flag. I had to work to get the components outta him... may as well have said "I made it with my very own_____" so no cookies for breakfast. Definite mouse food fodder.
On a better note, someone left me a ring pop for st. Nick's! Woot! So I get my sugar start anyway! (Screw you, Bob; maker of questionable cookies!)

So...today...I'll be productive.

johnnyd @twisty-M - yeah, food should be good. At least what we are bringing will be! But there's gonna be like 30 people there, all in the "friends" category, so we shouldnt have the trappings of a normal boring shower. Its at our other friends condo; I might utilize the hot tub.

We're going early to help set up. Its funny, I absolutely love setting up for an event or party, even if its a baby shower, apparently. I'm looking forward to it.

Dinner Club kicks ass - its with one dude that I met on this site, and another guy that I randomly parked next to at the Sunday UMass show in 2010. We all hit it off and show/tour crews absorbed and grew. For over a year now we kick it with those two guys once a month, regardless of music. @Ednaz met these characters at SPAC...

chris200w GM.net. A woman here has one of those little whiteboards hanging in her cubicle. Today it says, "I'M SICK!!! So don't get 2 close." Thanks. Can you also put a note on every door knob and hand rail and piece of office equipment that you touch today, so that I can also not get 2 close to those?

@missblue75 - When someone brings in food here it's practically a stampede, followed by people slowly filtering back to their desks while they discuss how much they've been cheating on their diets.

I just finished Season 2- that ending- holy shit. I'm now watching from Season 3 by myself, and watching from the beginning with my girlfriend- should make for a weird juxtaposition. It's weird going back and seeing Walter so innocent again in the Pilot.

Well, Walt is most certainly an asshole- but he really does seem to care about Jesse. Walt is one of my favorite characters on TV due to how morally ambiguous he is. Is he doing it for his family? Is he doing it because he actually likes it?

@DancetheJig728

Watch Season 1. It's understated, but still amazing. I can't wait to start 3.

johnnyd I like breaking bad but am not in love with it as many.
The pacing of the dialog is consistently overwrought, to me.
I get it. Everything is really tense and stressful. But despite the excellent characters and plot development, this really makes parts of it hard to watch for me.

Though I could lay similar criticism on The Wire regarding trying to understand the dialect

I gotta put on the Rocky theme every morning if I want to have a chance at seeing a show. It's all good though- it's worth it.
Feel free to hit me up for any exercise advice/philosophy/encouragement.
I've got a receipt degree in the field.

mfhgreyboy Morning all. I'm out of the office heading into the field for an investigation the next few days. And it lined up so I could spend a few hours today at school with my daughter and all her little friends. It was awesome. Reading them all stories playing silly games singing songs. So much fun. I wish I could do that more often. Sigh.

Have a great day everyone! I'm off to hit the DMV first. Wish me luck.
