After seeing me, the kid breaks out into tears and runs to the Dad like I'm the boogeyman. Won't stop bawling even after I leave. Thanks for shooting my self-esteem to hell, kid." Like the others already said.. kids are nutjobs anyway, cute love em to death nutjobs.. don't take it to heart. Had a complete strange kid wanting to be picked up by me for no reason and then the mom told me it was my black leather jacket, an uncle wears them all the time... so that kid prolly just saw scrubs and remembered that monster that gave it a jab for vacination.. As to the things you see in hospitals... some of it is heart-breaking and surreal, but you will get used to it with time. You will learn so much about yourself, people and about what is real in a hospital. Keep at it! 1 Quote Remember that sensory deprivation causes hallucinations Link to comment
Frost of the Gloaming Posted February 25, 2019 Report Share Posted February 25, 2019 Dude with all the issues we had with pregnancy and all of the issues my friends have had it's better to go get checked out for the babies sake than anything. 1 Quote Between a rock and a hard place, use our finger nails to climb, it's all we know..........

Raincloak Posted March 1, 2019 Report Share Posted March 1, 2019 She went to the doc, baby appears ok, but is continuing to complain of injuries and is treating them at home. Apparently no specialists. Whether she called a lawyer is anyone's guess. 1 Quote Every saint has a past, and every sinner has a future. Hylian Assassin 5'5", 143 lbs.

Frost of the Gloaming Posted March 7, 2019 Report Share Posted March 7, 2019 So after my cats knocking down my garlic plants for the 3rd time I decided to bring them into work; now when you walk up to my desk you get a nice aroma of garlic.

Frost of the Gloaming Posted March 8, 2019 Report Share Posted March 8, 2019 We can't have an office cat, already checked or else the one cat would be here; during the holiday season she's the one that you find peering out at you from the middle of the tree and last night was looking down at us from the top of a 7 ft bookshelf and the reason why we can't keep pictures on the mantle; yea she would be going to work with me..... which reminds me, many years ago while working in a warehouse we had a cat that would roam the grounds and whose job was keeping the field mice out of the building; her pay was cat food and a place to live during crappy weather; what corporate doesn't know is that she had run of the building and that she had a food and water bowl right by the inside back break room door. I think the Secretary took her home when the closed the place down. Wow that was 18 years ago. Wonder if she is still alive, that would put the cat around 22-23; the Secretary is still alive, I ran into her at an outdoor concert last summer. 3 Quote Between a rock and a hard place, use our finger nails to climb, it's all we know..........

Frost of the Gloaming Posted March 14, 2019 Report Share Posted March 14, 2019 I accidentally made something, was making my homemade pasta sauce and had a half of chicken left over, so I pulled the chicken (leaving nothing but bones and fat) added it to my sauce just to warm it up and where as I thought I was making pasta sauce with chicken I made an Italian pulled chicken; which to toot my own horn was awesome on the pasta and also on a roll the next day 32 oz of crushed/diced tomatoes 1 med/lrg sweet onion 3 peppers (mine were a little on the small side so if they are bigger cut in them in half) red, orange, yellow, or whatever you want 3 cloves of garlic 1 cup of chicken stock olive oil 1/4 tsp of salt 1/2 tsp of pepper 1 tbsp oregano (if you can use leaves, it does make a difference ) 1 tbsp basil (see above) prep the onions ,peppers, and garlic by dicing them into your preference of size; the smaller they are the more likely they are to disintegrate into the sauce itself(aka my kids don't know there is onions in the sauce) so if you like onions and peppers I would leave them a little on the bigger side chop the basil and oregano pre-heat a pot over medium heat add a tablespoon or so of olive oil to the bottom of your pot, add in the diced onions and diced peppers stir them until they onions are translucent and the peppers are getting soft, add in the diced garlic, stir until the onions start to turn golden, add in the tomatoes, oregano, basil, salt, pepper, stir until blended, add in the chicken stock, stir until evenly mixed, bring the sauce to a low boil and cover and turn down to simmer and let it simmer for a half hour stirring it every few minutes; over all with the prep and cooking the onions, peppers, garlic it takes about 45 minutes So to make the pulled chicken just add the chicken to the sauce and let the chicken heat up while the sauce simmers 2 Quote Between a rock and a hard place, use our finger nails to climb, it's all we know..........

Frost of the Gloaming Posted March 14, 2019 Report Share Posted March 14, 2019 not quite a smite but definitely made me sad; our secretary accepted another job (wooohooo go her!) however she's the only other smart geek on the floor; we can talk book, comics, movies, music..... so today we had to mail out a letter to a guy with the last name Skiff who lives on Lake Street; my boss heard me snicker and asked "What" so I told him and just got a blank stare back; I told the Secretary who snickered at it. Not that's it's supper funny it's just a funny coincidence that makes life a little more tolerable, and I'm sad that I'm going to feel isolated again after she leaves; believe me I've tried to fit in, but when you're into geek pop culture (Orville, Z Nation, Umbrella Academy) and the rest of the office is into the Bachelor and all that other insipid crap; it feels like high school all over again; where you're doing nothing wrong, just exploring what makes you happy which puts you at odds with the rest of the people "Ohhh I have to watch this show, even though I don't like it because I'll have other people to talk to about it" 1 Quote Between a rock and a hard place, use our finger nails to climb, it's all we know..........
