We are one in the same. I feel the pain

...

I'll bet you do...

I like eggs.

Speaking of which, how is your little Snuggles doing, has the fever/vomiting stayed away?

Further proof of the prodigious amount of work that Bethesda puts into the Elder Scrolls series:

It’s Super Bowl week here in the states, and one of the big stories that broke today is that Ray Lewis, All Pro middle linebacker for the Baltimore Ravens, may have taken deer antler extract (a banned substance) to accelerate his recovery from a torn triceps muscle.

It just so happens that the only positive alchemical effect of small antlers in Skyrim is to Fortify Restoration. Coincidence?

ROFL! Awesome bit of trivia here!

Well you gotta hand it to 'em...

That's....strange! But it sounds like simply a coincidence.

Unless Ray has been playin' skyrim......

ROFL!!! Ray: "Er, I've been playing this Bethesda game called Skyrm, and whenever my character gets injured and takes 'Potion of Deer Antlers' his recovery time is diminished greatly. Could you please incorporate it into my recovery plan?"

More likely, whoever thought up the alchemical effects did their research well, lol.

That's awesome!

It sure has! My sweet baby is spending the night at grandma's though, since hubby and I both worked tonight. We're getting him back tomorrow afternoon. Then, playtimes!! I wanna take him on a picnic at the park, then maybe go see his other grandma... He's been stuck inside for 2 days being sick, poor loves

A picnic? But it's freezing outside!.....oh, wait....I forgot


It's great news he's feeling better, and a picnic sounds nice

No picnic. I got hit with a surprise 14 hour shift.

I'm so glad to hear that, poor little guy!

Yuck.

Nooooo... ...

Ah, would that I had done this quoting earlier... ...



Yes, I think we all did...The question is, why did you do it?...



Also, 49ers or Ravens anyone?...

Exponential or factorial?

Ah, but that is too clever a question for me this time of the morning... ...

I merely enquire as to your prediction for that there Superbowl that the previous thread about Ray Lewis was alluding to... ...

I'm out.

And hurting.

Retail is brutal.

He told the coffee shop at the time he was making a back-up account, I think because of that account fiasco at Bethesda.

Several people on here have two profiles, usually because something happens where they can't get onto their original account and getting hold of a mod is not quick on this site. (so most just make a second account).

Woukd it be wise to make a second account

If there is a chance you'll ever forget your password, yes. I think that is what happened to Ulani, and Foxy has had the same problem - traveling around the globe has that effect on people. I can't remember what happened that Saquira and Victoria needed a second account, but it was probably the same thing.

I'm gng to Africa in a few months, I should make a backup account before I leave

Stephan got voted off Top Chef again tonight, lost it on a "Surf and Turf" this time.

Write down your password and give it to your sister. If you forget it, ask her for it.

I keep my account here open all the time, so when I went to my mom's in November I was scared to death because I didn't remember what my password was. URK! I tried everything I thought it might be and finally found it - WHEW!

That's a good idea. I'll need to do that before I forget.

But just wait. I'm going to forget the password, and she's going to make me work for it just so she can get back at me for the broken toilet

You owe her a toilet anyway, lol. A person with children can NOT be in a house with a toilet that doesn't flush!

I didn't mean to break it! I was just making the flushing sound because the toilet is loud when it flushes, my sister hates the noise, and I wanted to annoy her! I don't expect the toilet to break

Now the kids are staying at my house because i didnt destroy my toilet. My sister drops them off at thier school, and i go to mine, after I get out I go home until its time to pick them up, and I watch them until my sister or her ape....I mean husband, picks them up.

I detect a smidgen of animosity for her husband XD

Well.....let's keep it at:

I don't like him, he doesn't like me, and family meetings are a disaster when we bump heads

You're Alive!

Barely! XD I have to be back up there in 5 hours. No one has heard from my boss since 10 am this morning. And in his absence, I run the store, since I'm the only assistant. We're worried because he passed out at his old apartment (His place caught fire and he had to move. He went to pick up some blankets) and woke up in the hospital with swollen hands, broken glasses and cute and bruises. He remembers walking into his old place and then nada. He woke up in the hospital. He said he was heading to the eye doc and no one has seen him since.

So, we're a tad bit worried. I shot him a text saying if he doesn't respond before 4:30 am, then I'm going to work for him tomorrow.

That's a bit....unnerving. I hope he's alright

Uhh... If you actually care about the dude maybe you should knock on his door or something.

EDIT: assuming he lives on his own without a spouse or room mates.

I hope so too. Even though he's kind of mean, he's still my buddy.

I also need to ask him why the CRAP one of our cashiers bailed this morning. I spent 5 hours alone.

One day, I'll be a successful author and not have to deal with this XD I'll write a bestseller and set my son up for life!

And still make him get a job. Can't touch that money til you're 30, boy!

I don't know where he lives. I know where the apartment complex he lives in is at (vaguely) but not his apartment number. And knowing him, he hasn't even changed his address on the employee list. (even so, there's no way for me to look it up."

If he doesn't show by tomorrow morning, I'm going to call his brother, if that's his emergency contact.

And I'll most likely be using your books as a flyswatter! I'll be reading them too, of course! but if I see a bug flying around the house, whatever is in my hand automatically becomes a flyswatter, and the object at that time will most likely be my nephew or your book(no I've never used my nephew as a flyswatter! I've never attempted it either!)

Wait.....the other cashier just left you alone? You should convince your boss to take that out of her paycheck.

And.....

What will your book be about? I'm curious.....

Hmmm, cashier disappeared at the same time, huh?

-snickers- I wonder where she went.....

Trophy husbands of course!

He just didn't show up, mALX. We occasionally get those who think, "Oh, it's just a dollar store, I don't HAVE to be there."

Then again, my boss might have told him to stay home. Dunno. He was really out of it this morning. Either way, by the time the evening shift came along, I really had to use the bathroom, lol

Have you thought of going to a hardware store and buying a flusher thingy? Maybe her ape husband can fix the toidy. Tie a little bow on the flusher and give it to her with either flowers or candy. You owe her big time for the suffering she has had to go through over that broken toilet, lol.

Most likely? The sufferings I have to go through in retail XD

That there is the makings of a best seller.

When it comes to fixing things, her....um....pet ....is worse than me. The likeleyhood that I'll be able to fix the toilet is higher that the likeleyhood Donavan can.

And I did buy a new handle. Now we just need to find someone who can actually fix it.....

I'm sending you my book "How to fix anything around the house."

Thanks! That would be very useful

My friend can fix the toilet. I'm just waiting for him to respond bac to the e-mail I sent. Ive been too busy to call him or anything.

*oops, double post

Today will definitely be an entry. Here's how it will go:

As I scanned and bagged the young man's items, I noticed he was staring at something at my shirt.

"Your total is $8.71," I told him. He continued to stare.

"$8.71, sir." No response.

"Your total is $3,000." whatever was on my shirt was very interesting. I looked down. There were no spots, no logos, nothing to attract his attention.

Then it dawned on me. He was staring at my chest, not my shirt. Apparently my chest is infinitely more interesting than paying for his candy and drinks. I sighed, trying again.

"I wrestled a bear once."

"That's-wait, what?!"

Ah, finally.

"I said, your total is $8.71."

He blushed. He paid quickly without letting my hand him his change. The next customer smiled at me.

"Rough day, honey?"

"Not as rough as that bear!" I teased.

She laughed. 6 hours until closing.

This would make an interesting book. Do your customers really do that kind of stuff?
