first day of work done….

and based on the size of the unread threads when I got home....looks like im gonna fade off this forum, at least for the time being. Well, I guess that unemployed grad student affords more time than full time worker...

I hope all that "tissue swelling" isnt from browsing fit pics on here Gav

@Irish, Thanks for the day1 update, man that was FAST moving! I imagine it'll ebb and flow. I certainly look forward to 'not-work' time to catch up in more detail here also.  Reading, listening, and talking with you all is one of the most enjoyable parts of my day, even if only a few minutes a day.

I just took Caroline to go potty and here's how it went-
"I'm pooping!"
(she looks down)
"There's a little poopie and a big poopie and a medium poopie."
"It's a family!"
(pause)

"Daddy, you're the big one."

Her powers of observation (regarding who is the big poop) rival those of Sherlock Holmes

Bollocks, any Tom, Dick or Harry could have told him that….

It's not too bad dude, the current favourite from my expert medical team in idiopathic urticaria and angioedema , which is latin for "we don't know why you get random tissue swellings everywhere, but shit happens dude".

Get well soon Gav.

[Megatron1505]

Thanks David, it's been going on for almost 4 years now dude so I don't see it going away any time soon though 

[davito]

Sorry to read that, just hope they might find a solution making life for you easier not suffering too much from it. Good luck Gav

I just found the Hell's Angels chapter in minny. I will try to take a selfie in front if I can avoid getting stabbed. Super fortified place, diamond plate reinforced door, bunker like construction, concrete wall with a large chai link fence and barbed wire, cameras everywhere and some nice graffiti art

[pillowPANTS]

Chai link fence ? Interesting tactic to clubhouse defence .

[mclaincausey]

The chain link fence has barbed wire atop it and itself is atop a 15 foot cinderblock wall

Mate I like how you wrote "chai" instead of chain ….my sad attempt at
grammatical humour ..

BTW loving the 81 and it is fading slightly ....tough bugger .

I chuckled too.. I imagine trying to drink my way through it

Those bikers are more into chamomile than chai though.
