and can pull out fillings, that was not fun

 

easy peasy caramel recipe, take a can of condensed milk and simmer it for 2-3 hours make sure the can is completely covered by water for the entire time , it's more Dulce de Leche than sticky caramel

Very nice pic Frosty!

 

I wanted hard crunchy caramel, not the sticky kind (it was for candied nuts), so no milk/cream in there.  but appreciate the culinary suggestion :)

 The nuts were a huge hit, everybody wanted a taste of my sweet sweet nuts.  hur hur hur.

I have yet to see an episode of that show. Though in all honesty we are 10 days into the New Year and I've only semi-watched one football playoff game because my team was in it

 

 

Luds I'm looking at your signature thinking to myself I need to make an appointment to use the Isolation Tank

 

Hmm that may be a good reward for my 100 day challenge, Massage at day 30, don't know what for 60 and Isolation Tank for 100

Good: Saving the Company a ton of money by fixing machines instead of replacing them

Bad: Some of the machines are so old that I can no longer get parts to make repairs

Worse: Paperwork for getting rid of said machines and even more paperwork to get said machines replaced

So to cross thread, would you rather give up sex or exercise? And if you are a sweater is it acceptable to wear a headband during the act?

 

(Disclaimer, the original question was blow jobs and cheese; I dislike cheese so I changed it)

It's acceptable to wear whatever you and your partner(s) want, on whichever bit of anatomy you care to don it.

 

I'm given to understand that for many people, sex is the only exercise they get.

Me: sad and unproductive because I hate my job.

Relatives: you don't need to like your job, you just have to be productive.

Me:  I work and pay my bills.  I just don't work very hard.

Relatives: You must work hard and excel.  Everyone else in the clan does.

Me:  Everyone else in the clan likes their job.

Relatives: your desires don't matter, who says you have the right to put yourself first?

Me:  Um... that's why I'm sad.

Relatives: stop being sad, you'd be happy if you worked harder.

Also, I'd encourage selective listening/hearing. Listening-the act of hearing the words someone else says...

 

hearing-the act of giving a fuck what the other person says.

 

I heard it on prairie home companion (fuck em for calling it "live from here" now) this past weekend: Treat your job like going to the bathroom. You're gonna have to do it. So go in there, do it quickly, and try not to think about it when you leave.

 

Or take the homer simpson approach...you go in there everyday a do it half assed.

 

 

I've had jobs like that, situations, and relationships. I pray it passes like a bad day of gas

All I can say is update the resume and send it out; that is what I'm actively doing right now

 

The people I work with make me not want to be here right now and all the frustration is just causing me to shut down and not give a shit, which makes me exactly like them which I f'n hate. So I have sent out my resume to at least 10 different places so far, fingers crossed.

Well that's enough to suck the life out of a person for the entire time being in their company. 

 

Bottom line, hating your ob eventually weighs you down and doesn't do much for general well-being. And if you dn't put yourself first, who will? 

 

Being unhappy with the job means one thing - getting out there and finding something more suitable and less nerves consuming.

All I can say is that I feel you. I'm in the same boat right now, waking up each morning is such a struggle.

No thanks, those are our summer highs here.....I'm actually not that happy that it is 40 degree's here, this weekend is normally our snowshoe race which has be converted into a trail run and the 3 on 3 hockey tourney has been cancelled wtf happened to winter around here?

 

But I am trying to make the best of things by hopefully getting some early work done on the garden.

The upper 80s/low 90s is actually pretty close to our normal summertime temps. The difference (and it is considerable) is the humidity, which has been mercifully low. In the summer it is close to 100% most days, so it feels much warmer than what the actual air temp would indicate.

 

However, it is February and still technically winter, so I would prefer we go back normal please and thanks..

We will never see the best version of ourselves inside our comfort zone
