Well, I've not been around in a while, but in my perusings I've noticed Sullivan "Sully" Titwillow and Hard As Iron haven't been around in a while, also can't forget JD Diamond and a Belgian fellow by the name of Metalwarrior (I believe). Place was pretty rocking way back when, even if my head wasn't screwed on quite right. Wonder if Timboni is still posting. And Robocaster too. |

(Not getting any easier, as I would have hoped.)
I'm just clinging on to sanity by the skin of my teeth ... ha-ha.
Some days are better than others, but it's a tough go...
Didn't help much when Colley borrowed a movie this weekend called, "U-Turn", where Sean Penn gets a couple fingers cut off about a 1/2 hour into the movie. Yeah... When I realized what was happening, I kind of lost it and became a big, sobbing mess on the floor ...
Wasn't too funny at the time, but Colley jumped up with a horrified look on his face saying, "I didn't know, I didn't know!" Kind of funny now though... Needless to say, we haven't watched the end yet... That was just too close to home for comfort.
Then there's smashing what's left of my 'finger' into things. Oh yeah, now that's fun. Holy hell... it's like stubbing a toe, but 100% more pain, for 100x longer. Note to self, "Gotta stop doing that."
So, all in all, with help from my angels out there (you know who you are...) I stay out of the "black hole" that's ever present and threatening ... and I just sit on the edge, trying to put space between us.
However, a stranger went out of his way to be nice to me yesterday. I had been a bit rude, which did not warrant his kindness. But, his small gesture of caring regardless of my own behaviour, at such a critical moment (perhaps, he sensed a breaking point?), went a long way towards me looking at the world and my own situation in a better light.
You just never know when doing something good, however small, will help someone in ways you can't imagine. He may have helped me turn that corner... At the very least, he reaffirmed some of my faith in humanity.
So, for today, my tears are of gratitude for being lucky enough to have people care. Thanks to my Angels without wings....

I have to go there for physio at the hospital. Pretty much takes the whole freakin' day... 1.5 hours of driving, one way a couple of times a week.
I was injured as owner of the company, with no extra WCB coverage for myself. Great, eh? Worked out well... I'm sure losing a body part is worth some bucks, but I'll never find out. So, if I can quote our ever-eloquent Stratlover here... "fuckity-fuck-fuck". No, not pissed about that at all... Doesn't bother me one little bit... 
Yep, Reid was one of the builders we worked for. (Don't worry, at least it wasn't Albi -- they really suck! Trico's probably the best.) Glad to hear the plumbing's good. Quite likely we did your house! How cool is that? I really do think I recognize the address... Anyway, Wm. Schmidt Mech. would have contracted out the plumbing & heating.
No sleeping on the way home!!!! You *know* how the QEII gets on Friday afternoons! Take care out there...

dead rear=red deer
the plumbing in our house will probably out last most of the rest. builder was Reid. they Suck. plumbing works though. roofer on the other hand....
going home soon, thank (insert apropriate deity). although, the drive is exciting enough to sleep all the way.
| | | WhiskeyWoman wrote: | | Hi HB ... hey, we have/had a Mason's Lodge out here!? No kidding... where the hell? Are you sure??
And your Dad lived/died out here!? (HB, I'm sorry to hear that, btw.) Did you ever live here ...?
There's only 648 people in this town (oops!) village, just how do they manage to hide something like a that, like... a building? Lol... I wonder if it's the old dance studio we replaced all the plumbing in...
We came here (dead rear??? lol...) because we found a beauty house for a great price and couldn't afford anything quite like it in Calgary a few years ago (just before the prices went sky-high), we're not big fans of the city, and it seemed like the area needed an exceptional plumber. Ta da!
You know what? I think either we, or the company we worked for, plumbed *your* particular house! No shit. We did tonnes of houses in that "Wise-wood" area, (get it...?!)
If the plumbing's excellent in your house, with no problems ... then we did it! yay...!
(Easy enough to figure out, by who the builder was.)
Are you on your way home for the weekend? Yay!!! Drive safe.

HB, I appreciate the offer ... and I'm pretty good at laundry, so it sounds like a fair trade. Must get to your place before Christmas and give you that magazine, if you still want it. (Sorry, always in a hurry and usually going the other way to Red Deer! You ever get out this way?)
