Same with the sleeper sofa. Can't offer a bed to anyone anymore. Thanks for the offer though Tom would love a recliner in his "man cave" if anyone has one free/cheap.
Our new couch is AWESOME! Nice neutral camel microsaude with a vintage look to the arms and very very comfortable on my back
If only we had time to watch TV

Went to my local True Value hardware in Pine Bush today - it gets (2)
People were super helpful and friendly. I got all the items on my list plus a few
Signed up for the rewards card they offer - I have a feeling I will be a regular customer

It's on the west side of the house and on sunny days it just bakes this side of the house.

In general, I hate the people I work with
They don't work hard enough and they have a limited grasp on intelligence
It never ceases to amaze me how some people come to work and don't seem to engage their brain
Simple clear example, let's say Person says to a friend, I need ya to go get me a pair of jeans, I need a Levi 505, in a 32 34, and if you have a choice get the less washed one, the darker blue version
See, simple clear instructions, they are smart enough to apply themselves to their personal life and think through the process and provide complete info
Now same Person comes to work, and they have another need, and yet they tell me I need ya to get me some flash drives, with Company A logo on it, and then they walk away because they are done, they have done their job, in their mind
BUT WAIT, you f'ing moron
- how many do you want?
- what color should they be?
- how many colors do you want the logo to print?
- do you want the logo on one side or two?
- what are you planning to load onto the drive and how big is that data?
- is there a date you need these by?
- when will you have the data ready so the drives can be loaded?
- where should these ship once completed?
I could go on and on with more questions
Some people are clever enough to think through things when they want, but many are not
No, it's way too easy to just drop a request with no forethought, then let someone wh has an attention to detail spoon feed the all the things they need to think about
People suck...
And then, I get out of work, and people are great
The lady in the grocery store, she's a cutie, I'll say hi to her
The guy serving me a beer, he's cool
The mechanic working on my car, what a trusted great guy
The cool VFR rider who teaches me about the best things to buy
The great blue car guy and girl who do so much to help the fotumn
The great guy who has the heart of gold and will help anybody out
I mean the list goes on and on
People are great!
