I like this time at night on HBT

[Dan]

All this talk about livers. Nobody should ever eat mine if they know whats good for them.

Love me some liverworst. I'm not really even sure what it is. Pretty sure there is some liver in there though. My favorite, once in awhile sandwich is a 1/3 inch slab of liverworst, thick slice of yellow onion, mustard. That's it. Heaven in a sandwich.

On a different note. You ever seen the cheesey adds trying to find a pet a new home. Here is mine. I hope it works.

I like it! And since that cat doesn't have $10 worth of meat on him it offsets the chance that he'll be acquired for dishonorable purposes.

Your cat appears to be bigger then your dog.

It's odd. I'm taking this week off. I don't have to be back to work until next Tuesday. So, I could drink as much as I want. What am I drinking you ask? Diet soda. I just don't feel like having a drink right now. I usually don't.

So what you do it, you go to sleep and then TOMORROW in the morning you hit it like a beast. Totally blotto by lunch time. And then make someone deliver you food, Chinese takeout maybe. C'mon man this weeks going to go quick. And I've got all of next week off so I'll be looking to you for guidance.

Thanks BB. I hope it works. This moving crap. Absolutely no fun. In two days I have a new home in Hawaii. Nice place, cool Kona breeze most all of the time. But, it's for my wife. I'm not looking forward to living there. Giving to much up here. I'm renting this house out. I'm going to find a place, like a room to stay in for awhile until I find a good job in Hawaii. There is nothing wrong with where we live except my wife hates it. I'm a foolish, PW'd arse.

When I first went back to HI in April, wife wanted to look for a place. The interest rates were at an all time low. She got a Realtor. He wasn't really that good at finding us a place. Then again, I was only there a week so my wife found a place. He was however, very good at winning a bid and the loan officer was also very good. We found a place. Our offer was accepted. I was shocked. Then we went through the loan process and I thought for sure we'd be shot down. Part of me was hoping we would be. Nope. If I'm being honest, there is something wrong with that. I make a pretty decent salary. It's not extraordinary but not bad either and I do have a retirement pension.

Wife did the walkthrough of the house on Father's Day. Get's the keys on Thursday.

Cockroaches! She did the walk through and tons, well maybe not tons, but lots of cockroaches. That's Hawaii, no matter where you live, if you don't annihilate them they are strong. Termites too, but this place we bought is termite free. The Realtor said he would ask the owner to have an exterminator spray the nuclear defiant little bastidges before keys were handed over in a few days.

I'm pretty much at my wits end. That's why when I post these days they are long. On one hand. I just bought a house in Hawaii. On the other hand, I'm giving up (for my wife) my home where everybody knows my name, and I like my neighbors, for her. In the end I believe Hawaii is a beautiful if not small assed island. I loved it there while in the military, probably because it was shorterm. Living there longterm was out of the question which to be quite honest was a saving grace. Live in paradise for awhile but you don't have to give up everything to live there forever. Of course, if you are born and raised there you'll never know what you gave up.. I wasn't born and raised there.

Ending this post because trying to read through it even gets me confused.

Goodnight HBT.

 

[bottlebomber]

Good luck Dan.. It's impossible to know how you feel in a time like this, but you're doing things for the right reasons and I have faith that they will turn out well for you. And a good night to the room.

Huh, I find that being drunk makes the time go very fast indeed. Not a bad idea, but I'm thinking pizza.

Dan, no one knows what is in your heart better then you. May you find what you have been seeking.

I thought you said we were opposites

Yeah well, a few minutes ago my brain did that funny dizzy "you should have gone to sleep a while ago" thing. Besides, if we were complete opposites I think we would have annihilated each other on contact. :fro:

 

[Leadgolem]

Hey Emjay, do you like sushi?

 

[Leadgolem]

For some reason that song made me think of this.


Goodnight now.

 

[BobbiLynn]

Dan, if I could, I would take your cat home and not even think about eating him. I bet he'd get along great with my dog and also the chickens. But I heard cats will want to eat baby chickens, and since we plan to have more babies, maybe not a good idea after all.

For roaches, there is, or was, something they sell at Lowes or Home Depot called "Max Force". A gel. Haven't had to use it in years, lucky for living in Florida. That's what you need, nothing else works like it does. Get 2 bottles, line the kitchen and bath with it, like bottoms of cabinets, but no pets if you do this. Put it in all hidden spots in the house, but mostly kitchen and bath and you will be sweeping up dead ones in no time. They will take it with them back to their nests and kill all their buddies too. As a Florida homeowner who has tried everything, I can tell you, that **** works.

Moving is not easy and pretty sure it's on the top 5 list of most stressful things you can do. Finding a new job is on the top 5 list too, I think. Good luck.

 

[emjay]

Hey Emjay, do you like sushi?

Honestly, I don't know. I'm waiting until I'm somewhere really good to try other than the few pieces I've had.

Redneck conservative or hippie liberal?

Hmm, I'd say hippie liberal. I love sushi with so much wasabi on it that tears are running down my face.

How to be completely ****ed up by the time your friend finally shows up at 7 AM to help you pick berries:

First, get to bed early and be up by 4 or 5.

Pop open a beer while you wait for the coffee to brew.

Look around for any drugs you happen to have on hand. Non-drowsy allergy relief works if that's all you got.

If you can't get your doctor to prescribe some downers, you can try Valerian root. Take 2 or 3 of those to offset all the coffee and allergy meds.

Lots of sugar in your coffee because a sugar rush on top of everything else is just nice.

After your third cup of coffee, time for one more beer.

Ready to go pick berries!!!

 

[emjay]

Oh, I have plenty of downers. Allergy meds make me wake up extremely groggy when used for sleep... No es bueno.

I'd peg myself as a hippie liberal too

Btw, I did sleep... for maybe an hour? First time having bronchitis and while I'm kicking its ass with my arsenal I am still coughing so hard I'm surprised there hasn't been blood, though I'm sure I've ruptured vessels. As least my "arsenal" has it coming up watery now, rather than not at all...

 

[BobbiLynn]

Hope you get feeling better Emjay, that sounds awful. At least liquid coming up now before you end up with pneumatic bronchitis. Had that once and probably the sickest I've ever been in my life. Took forever to completely clear up.

At 8:07 this morning, I lost my dog. We were in the woods picking berries and then he was gone. I had literally a gut wrenching feeling. He always comes when I call him. 4 hours later, I'm driving down the main dirt road towards the highway and some guy stops me to say you can't ride lawn tractors down that road. Well, it's Corbett Lane and we are the Corbetts so screw him. But anyway, I told him I was looking for my dog. He kept trying to say, oh you can get a fine, but I just kept explaining what the dog looked like. He has 3 purple hearts from his time in the service and once a neighbor threw rocks at his mailbox because he called animal control on her dog. Anyway, as I am talking to him, trying to get back on the subject of my lost dog, there he is, meandering out of the woods. No tail wagging, no nothing, just staggered onto the lawn tractor. Checked him over for snake bites, but seems okay. Just hot and tired. 4 hours looking for my dog. Didn't get many berries picked today, but tomorrow is new day.

 

[SharonaZamboni]

Glad you found your dig, BL!!

 

[Stauffbier]

Glad you found him Bobbi. I hope he's ok.

 

[LabRatBrewer]

Glad you found your dig, BL!!

Had to read back to find out if she lost her her dog or pig. I glad you found it BL.

 

[TNGabe]

Glad you found your dog BL! I'm sure losing him was completely unrelated to your meds and a.m. beers....

[BobbiLynn]

Well, he's pretty smart. Probably thought I wouldn't notice. My ******* neighbor said he thought he had gone to play with some other dogs down the road. At least now my dog realizes I will notice!! No matter how many beers or drugs I have consumed! He seemed really traumatized at first but now has been snuggling with me all evening, he promises to never run off again. He finally meandered over after hearing me argue with the ******* neighbor in the middle of the road. I'm trying to describe the missing dog and he just wanted to talk about who threw rocks at his mailbox. Errr.....

 

[BobbiLynn]

I'm also pretty sure the argument with my neighbor in the middle of the road had nothing to do with the beer and meds either. He even mentioned my grandfather and his purple heart, said yeah I've seen him driving by showing off his purple heart. Grandad has 3 too, if that guy really does have 3. And anyway grandfather passed away 3 years ago. Then the ******* says, so what are y'all going to do with all that land? **** you, I'm thinking, my dog is about 15 pound, brownish red and white. Said he calls animal control when he finds strays. I told him I don't give a ****, that's great, at least my dog will probably be safe, I'd call animal control when I got home. I have no problem bailing my dog out and I'd thank him, I won't throw rocks at his mailbox. But then after all the arguing/talking, my dog came walking out of the woods and got onto the tractor with me. I was ecstatic and the mean guy even flashed a big smile, glad I found my dog.

I like a long steam when I'm really congested. It seems to help loosen things up.

The argument with the neighbor probably attracted your dog. Dogs might not be able to understand very many words, but they can interpret tone and recognize voices. Glad you found him BL. Good luck getting the berries in tomorrow.

 

[Leadgolem]

Oh, I got nectarines on Monday for that nectarine mead. I'm waiting for them to ripen completely first, so I probably won't mix the batch up until next week.

 

[Leadgolem]

I put some leftover sushi in the fridge over night. Now the rice is nice and cohesive like it's supposed to be. I guess I just needed to chill it down. I'll remember that for the next time I make some. Though what I put on the rice next time isn't going to even resemble what is supposed to go on sushi rice...

 

[emjay]

Glad you found your dog, BL. Took me a while to realize you actually got him back.

Sigh. Going to be a long night. Can't sleep longer than about a half an hour at a time. And the only thing on the menu is... lung butter.

At least you're having productive coughing.. The worst is a dry and itchy infected throat. In any case, it's nothing an incredibly hot shower with the fan off and door closed, and a massive pull from a bottle of codeine syrup can't at least improve. We were all sick this past week too, but not bronchitis.
