please enjoy your acorns responsibly
I got a lot done yesterday, both work-wise and other stuff wise too. The water situation is taken care of (we hope) a sediment filter was installed and the water softener is …umm, softening again. I got two really hot issues at work fixed yesterday, which was testament to good working from home practice. I sequestered myself in my office for most of the morning and got all that done.
Also, after lunch time Bubba and I headed to the Pinelands Branch of the Burlington County Library System and found a new We Both Read book for him, a couple kids DVDs, and The Aviator for Dana and I to watch.
We went to over to my sister’s last night for our niece Ashley’s birthday party. Our kids were pretty good with the exception of not eating dinner. I’m waiting for an extremely choice picture of me wearing my “If It’s Too Loud, You’re Too Old” t-shirt and my new faux-blingy watch purchase on the NYC streets. I’m hugging my very amused Mom in the picture. It’s definitely a blog-worthy shot, I’ll have it up ASAP. I exuded class and dignity….oh yes…just got it…wow, my poor wife – she deserves an award for putting up with this.
Today is nutzo on my calendar, I’ve got four meetings and I need to take the minivan for an insurance inspection for the acorn damage we incurred this fall/winter. When I filed the claim on the phone, here are some of the questions the person filling out the claim asked. I realize that he probably had to ask some, but come on… I’m filing a report for acorn damage.
was there any other vehicle involved? I’m not exactly sure what the squirrel was driving…- was an ambulance called? That squirrel’s gonna need one if I ever get a hold of him
- any alcohol involved in the incident? I think so, please see this photo…I’m pretty sure the squirrel had a couple in him.
This weekend is looking like a busy one for sure. Dana has a tupperwarian type party to go to tonight, Saturday Dana is doing her cleaning job in the morning, and then there’s a classmate of Van’s birthday party to attend. I need to install a new toilet tank floaty thingie. I hope we get some rest this weekend too.
- Elephant Shit Paper – the phrase “I got you a notebook at the zoo” just got a lot different.

Looking forward to that photo of you. You always exude class and dignity, though, so that’s no surprise.
I’m all for recycling, but that paper made from elephant poop is going too far.

You are a STUD. That picture rocks.
Did I just say you were a stud? My apologies to your wife…I’m shitfaced on acorns.

I LOVE that picture. Your wife is one lucky lady to have such a classy husband. Just teasing, it looks like you are having lots of fun.
How exactly does a water softener work? We have one, and I know you pour the salt in, but what does it do? How does it work? Any idea?

van, did you get your mom’s permission before publicly humiliating her this way? oh wait, nevermind she’s the one who bought the watch…
apertome, whatcha’ gotta’ say now that you’ve seen the pic? personally, that is just about more class than i can take.
mamatulip – no apologies necessary. he looks studly to me when i’m shitfaced on acorns (or whatever) too.

That’s a squirrel after my own heart.
Have a good weekend and try to get a little rest.

Great pictures.
Jeez, you fix stuff?
Wait til I tell my husband about this. If I told him the floaty thingie was broken in our toilet, he’d tell me to find a diy book at the library, and wish me luck.

it’s organized squirrel crime, I tell you. I saw a story about it on the news once.
