curry! :vomit:
Aramis is small enough to tuck into a goose, which would fit into a large turkey. :yum: |
Is that what people mean when they refer to Chupacabre?
|
Happy Birthday Max!!
One week til carrot is street legal! |
What does street legal mean?
|
Means his innoculations and stuff are all done with and he can walk on the public pavements (sidewalks) and parks.
|
Ohhh...want to see video of his little puppy self running around outside.

I have a LOT of new bottles and crates to hold them.
I haggled a bit and got all six bins with 30 bottles per case for $100. I'll be bottling my mead tonight and/or tomorrow. After I wash and sterilize them. *sigh* Attachment 37905 Attachment 37906 |
I start a new job next week!
It's long-term freelance to start, but may become permanent. The freelance period can be kind of a test phase for both parties, which I've found has worked out well in the past. Bonus: I can walk to work. The stress and expense this will eliminate, compared to the trek out to my last job, is a huge relief. I was dreading the possibility that I would have to take another job with a ridiculous commute. I really hope this turns into a trend, and other folks on here looking for work start getting some good news! :fingerx: :fingerx: |
That's great, blue! :)
Nice to have a close-by job. |
I was just recently converted from a one-year contract to a permanent employee at my current job, so maybe the economy is improving.
|
That's awesome!
Benefits now? Vacation? 401K? |
None of that will change, but the little diamond next to my name indicating temp worker will be gone from the next version of the org chart.
And maybe I can stop working so hard. |
Asterisks by your name are never good...

Daisy Head Mayzie is back with her rightful owner. :driving:
Only I can't figure out how to move the steering wheel back up. Where'd the knob go? I don't remember ever moving it because I had it where I wanted it but now I can't find the knob to move it back up from where the mechanics moved it down. |
It's under the car, next to the muffler.
Make sure you wear gloves. |
If you feel the bottom of the steering column there should be a lever that will pull down then you can adjust it where you need to. It's pretty much flush when it's in the locked/closed position.
|
HLJ, Mr Car, you silly.
YEah, I was feeling under there. There's a thingy that seems like it might move but it didn't seem right. I thought for sure there was one of those levers that you push, then push back into place. I'll find it. |
Guessing without appropriate data and details provided ;)
There may be two of them. One underneath to adjust the steering wheel closer or farther from you and another (on left or right) to adjust the angle. (note - I don't have a VW, so ...) |
Is the CHECK STEERING COLUMN light on? What are the error codes?
Numbers, woman, not posted were specific numbers! |
haggis!
I found it. It was what I thought had to be it but I didn't have time to really mess with it. Steering wheel in appropriate spot. Daisy asleep in the carport. All is good. ;) |
I hope you wore gloves.
And eye protection. |
No. I'm typing this in braille, with my toes.
|
Husband got a new job...this time permanent. Means we will have benefits, finally. He lost his last job 2 weeks ago, but it was a contract and the new one pays better, too!
|
Great stuff kero. :)
|
I'm glad to hear that K-sene.
|
kerosene, I'm so, so happy to hear this wonderful news! Congratulations to him! wooohooooo!!
|
Win. Grats, Dakota!

"making me happy today" is a bit of a stretch, but I did read this bit as the signature of one of the posters in a thread about cider making. I got a big laugh from it.

Using nothing but her wits and good luck, J scored tickets to a taping of the Daily Show w/Jon Stewart!
I am planning the day in Manhattan. Not only are the tickets free, but they come with $10 parking for the day. $10 all-day weekday parking in Manhattan! It may be worth it just for that. I'm trying to figure out what to do and stuff. TDS time requirements leave us only a few hours to play with before and after. expect pics in upcoming weeks |
Awesome!
|
Very cool, UT. I am jealous.
|
Kero, that is FANTASTIC!
UT - awesome - sounds like a great time. |
Thanks, you guys. And congrats to you, too, UT. :)
|
What dates, UT?
|
I won't say!
|
Ve haff vays....
|
Going away this weekend to visit a friend at a University. I miss Uni; it'll be cool to be at one again.
|
A friend called earlier in the day and told me to call him when I get home. Been home but forgot to call him. Just called him a moment ago. He came by to give me a box of truffles and cookie cutters from Godiva. I'm gonna be happy for 5 minutes then go to sleep, hihi. Thought I'd share my smile with y'all. :D (Yes, it doesn't take much to make me happy, hehe.)
|
Happy #1 - After scouring the house top-to-bottom, I finally found the original survey on our house from when we bought it, so we can refinance without having to pay for another one.
Happy #2 - Minifobette has finally stopped being a royal bitch, with the advent of a little Zithromax. Happy #3 - Thanks to #1, my closet is now completely cleaned out and organized (the survey wasn't even in the closet, but it's a nice side effect.) Happy #4 - We're having leftovers tonight which means I don't have to cook. |
24 hrs from now i will be in Reno, NV playing in a poker tournament.

hi hi hi
he he he Lil Lola Bun how we love thee |
Lil Pete just got her Bennington acceptance plus a large scholarship. She's not going but it is a nice pat on the back for her hard work.
|
hurrah! Well done that young lady!
|
Congrats to her, and you guys. Ya'll done well.
|
I say hihihi as a greeting or as a positive affirmation.
One from Hot Fuzz and the other from the Japanese for yes. I do say them slightly differently, but until now, only I have known this. I was hoping it might spread. It obviously has, and I'm happy. Hai. Congrats Lil Pete. Did I miss why she wasn't going to Bennington? (is it something to do with Ibram?) |
My little Carrotcake.
I'm in horrible pain with bad back (see upset thread) and bless his little cotton socks, but he's really being good. he started a little with the trouser biting (which then progresses to leg chomping and a telling off, which is all part o fthe game as far as he;'s concerned), but when i told him to stop he did pretty much straight away. It's like he knows he has to be really good today. |
Awwwww. :)
|
And he gave me a wet puppy kiss (with teeth) and that made me feel much better.
|
My car is working!
I'm not! I'm shooting through for a coupla weeks. Bump ya later, peeps. Take care of the tip mug while I'm away, will ya? |
I tidied my room, and I solved the mysterious case of my missing eye drops. They were, inexplicably, living in my clothes pile.
And for the record, when I say clothes pile, I mean a pile of clean clothes that I'm just too lazy to hang up/put in drawers. But I feel better for having a tidy room. Ordered room, ordered mind. |
I have a few things to add to this thread.
1. As I mentioned in the "irks me but might be okay in the end" thread, husband's new job is a go, starting Monday. 2. I just tested out of speech class today, which means in 3 weeks I will be done with my degree. 3. I just got HBO, so I can see this season's Game of Thrones series! 4. Husband is finally feeling better and I think he is truly on the mend, this time. I haven't had this much good stuff happen in god knows how long! |
this gave me a happy moment, despite my personal current slightly apprehensive situation. Good luck in the new job Mr Kero, enjoy the new TV, all.
|
Thanks, monster. I hope the apprehension is alleviated with some resolution. I assume you are referring to the hockey situation with your son? I can almost kind of relate as every year, I go through this travel team vs rec team debate every year for my son's football interests. He wants to do travel, but I don't like the idea that it takes a parent getting up at 2 in the morning to go wait in line to get him on the team....I wouldn't mind the lack of sleep, I just think it is wrong. I could go into more detail, but it doesn't seem worth it. Anyway, I hope things work out. It sounds like he's going to do well no matter what team he ends up with, monster.
|
It's official. In a week and a half, I will be teaching a gluten-free cooking class at my local community center. I'm excited that enough people have registered, but... I'm kind of terrified, now that I realize what I've gotten myself into.
|
that's awesome Clod :)
You'll be great. |
That'd great clod! you'll be fantastic.
Kero, no, not the hockey this time -the lifeguarding certification exam I was about to take. Which I passed :D |
yey Monster!!!
|
Way to go, monster!
