Decidedly flat. Somebody entertain me?

Go for a walk and pick a fight with a senior citizen.

Everyone wins.

You remind me of the CAH “get drunk and fight a police horse”

[–] MeanElevator@aussie.zone 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Who's to say the horse didn't have it coming.

I’m phobic of the damn critters, but cannot approve of punching them.

[–] MeanElevator@aussie.zone 3 points 11 months ago

Hence why senior citizen are an adequate substitute.

Going ok for the moment while I work at another site. Hoping the end of the day comes quickly.

Drinking too much coffee which is making me run to the bathroom far too often.

How's it going with you?

[–] MeanElevator@aussie.zone 5 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Busy as shit at work. Keeping fit and healthy, but also seething with rage at the general public for existing.

Trying to make the best of this Friday without doing too much work.

[–] Duenan@aussie.zone 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Well hopefully you'll be able finish up work and go home fairly soon as half the day has gone already.

[–] MeanElevator@aussie.zone 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Thankfully I'm working from home today, but some dingbat filled my afternoon with meetings. And I'm covering for a couple of people who are off for an extended period.

Wanted to crack a brew open during the last meeting but taking my son shopping later and prefer to be sober.

This day ain't mine, but I appreciate your good will towards me :)

[–] Duenan@aussie.zone 2 points 11 months ago

Aww that's a bummer, well after taking your son out shopping I hope you'll be able to put your feet up and crack one open after everything has settled.

Good. I had to go and get some buns because we are having lobster rolls for dinner with lots and lots of beer. How are you going?

[–] MeanElevator@aussie.zone 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Pretty good. Busy and tired. Looking forward to beers tonight as well. No lobster for us though Mrs Moneybags ;)

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 4 points 11 months ago

Look I had to try those aldi frozen lobster tails didn't I? The thing is the kid wasn't going to be home so I declared it "lobster and beer night" now she is so I have to share. 😔
