Sliced the end of one of my fingers last night washing a knife.  Now I have the tip of it bandaged up and it's killing my typing.  I'm not great to begin with (40-50wpm), but this is got to be dropping my speed by 35%, dammit.

that is the definition of a first world problem

damn…UPS has 30min. left to ring my door bell, to handover that sb rider jacket and to make my day, before i have to go to work till midnight 
i hope they make it!...

[Morose_Penguin]

Work til midnight?? :(. In sort of related news it turns out that Booths management has decided that there will be no bonus for staff this year… Apparently the Chairman Edwin Booth has written a letter that explains why... I look forward to reading it on Thursday.

A nice personal touch there I thought, sorry to go on...

[Seul]

He should be given the Booth.

(I'll get my coat, again…)

[Morose_Penguin]

Apparently "The Man" himself came in later in the day… I was sorely tempted to key my feelings all over his Aston Martin...

... But never mind, it's only money

[Seul]

Keying Aston Martins should be a crime punishable by hanging.

@Seul:

I agree, but he might have shown a touch more sensitivity… Plus I wasn't entirely sure whether the CCTV cameras were working or not... So I left it.

Edit:  Time for a drink... And I may create a Whisky/Whiskey/Bourbon/Other Spirits thread tomorrow (maybe with a snappier title).

But for now:

I've been meaning to do this for a while, as I drink more spirits than beer, but I will leave it to you and post accordingly.

I love me some quality rum

Recently found out about a friend's suicide last Friday, and being out of the country I couldn't make it to the funeral, or be with my friends as details rolled in. First time I've ever been bummed about being out of the country.

[hectic]

I also, an anonymous internet voice, expresses sadness for you, emceeQ.

[J-IV]

Emcee; Hate to read something like that happening. Hope all is well, man. Like everyone says, keep your head up.

Condolences man, sorry for your friend an your pain.

[MikeC]

I feel for you man.

[emceeQ]

Thanks guys, it really does mean a lot to me.  Gonna do my best to spend the rest of my trip living it up in his honor.

[Finn666]

mate and "enjoy" your trip as much as possible!...

[Giles]
