Passed out at work today. They were doing a blood drive and I have donated before. Anyway they finished up getting the blood out of me and I am sitting on the recliner thing they use and they ask me how I was doing. I said I was a little light headded. She said a little or a lot.... Next thing I know I am looking up at a woman that I didn't recognize. I knew I was at work and I felt like I was on drugs. Took me a few minutes to come through. Very weird.

I did that at the doctors office and had a seizure. Scary s***. That's why I never give blood. Plus I have recent tattoos so ink in the blood is frowned upon
 
I'm the proud owner of a 1997 land cruiser CE. Lockers no roof rack of wind deflector out of MD with an engine knock. Can't wait to surprise the wife:frown:

dude that scary:eek: i have only passed out once after i sliced my self good and saw jets of blood coming out had a dream that seemed to go on for an hour but i was only out for 20 seconds or so, such a strange feeling
 
cheer up dave itll just make the good days that much better =D
 
ugh... what a s***ty day... {sigh}

Why?

First thing the boss says to me this morning is "because I like you so much your getting another hour
on a different route" Followed by " I'm forcing you to work Saturday".
I get 8 Saturdays a year off and he wants me to work so my sub can have the day off
to work on his "other career". Needless to say I wasn't my normal bubbly self today.

Ok, who's next?!

X2. basically fought with everyone all day even though I woke up in a good mood. Must have been a full moon.

Got my F-ing car back. $1950. then the mechanic asked me for a tip cuz of some other things he did that he never told me about. $2K was my cut off so I threw him $50. Then I notice the fan is loose. He says he didn't notice it and I likely need a new water pump or a fan clutch. he then says all the hoses will have to be replaced soon at $60 each for parts. THEN he tells me my radiator is hurting and will need to replace all of this in the next couple months. This is all after told him I would junk it if it was more than $2K. Gonna end up being $4K in repairs by the time I'm done with absolutely everything that needs fixing. Motherf-er. Should have know when the guy told me he went to Harvard but had no teeth.

My youngest daughter went back to school in Maryland on Saturday. My oldest daughter left for a semester abroad (in Spain) yesterday. That leaves me at home "empty-nesting it" with a wife who needs grief counseling due to one of her daughters being 4,000 miles away for 5 months.

I'll gladly work for you on Saturday!
 
I'd rather not go into details, just not a good one.

I followed this by caving and eating McDonalds for dinner (grilled chicken sammy, no mayo, small FF, diet coke) Not the worst thing given I had a lot of points left over for dinner--used less then half of my daily allowance before that--but it still felt like cheating.

I feel like Eeyore... insert big sigh here.


So Lane, is the rumored no-more-Saturday-deliveries a good thing or a bad thing for you?
 
I heard they might not deliver on Tuesdays since statistically it's the lightest delivery day of the week

I'd love to have weekends off like normal people, but they are talking Tuesday. Most of my business
customers think that's stupid since most are open Tuesday and closed on Saturday.
But management isn't known for making good decisions.
Little info, the board of directors also has members who are on the board of UPS (they get paid there). Does it make sense to have the competition making business decisions for you?
 
Day 3 of suck having a glow plug stuck in the head of my Ford and having it in the bay at a buddies shop. Oh yea, and the parts that I need to make it at least semi run are now a day late... :bigbagofsuck:
But on the bright side all the other junk that I normly wouldnt have time to do is getting done, shes gona drive and start like a new truck by the time I am done!
 
ok, I tracked my entire day and McD's included I'm at 29 points (I get 44 per day). So I can stop beating myself up over it. :)

bro points aside i just don't eat there for alot of reasons, you must resist the dark side

Totally. :) I really didn't need to freak out about that yesterday, I think it was my bad day talking... I made way to big a deal over it, I was under my points yesterday but a good chunk, so no worries, and so far no "ill effects" from my trip under the golden arches. ;)

Well said. While it can be tasty stuff, McD's is truly bad for your body and becomes habitual. Read Fast Food Nation and you'll never look at the fast food industry and their products the same.

Processed foods bad. Whole foods good!
