3 loads of laundry done, second floor vacuumed, groceries gotten, still coughing like crazy and exhausted. Woo.

I don't have a washing machine so I wait until I have nothing clean left to wear and don't want to hand wash a ton of stuff and go to the Launderette and wash pretty much *everything* including

bed sheets / pillow cases etc etc.

It's only £5 a time and I go like once a month.

We share a single laundry room with 2 other units. I have been trying to fucking wash my clothes all day but the stupid mother fuckers below me have had it all fucking day. These are the people who pile their dirty laundry into the room and will have shit sittting in the washer and dryer for days on end.

I am so pissed off right now I am about to punch something. I just want to wash a single fucking load of laundry.
I just don't understand what they were trying to achieve with any part of the song, either individually or as a whole. You know what? It's the Platypus of Dream Theater songs. That bill doesn't go with that tail, or that strange little furry body, or those webbed feet, and oh god why does it have venomous spurs!? And then you find out it lays eggs too. The difference is that the Platypus is somehow functional despite being a crazy mishmash or leftover animal pieces

I usually do laundry on Wednesday's at my parent's house. Sunday is the day I bleach the bathroom and clean the kitchen spotless.

The day I clean ANYTHING at my house is usually a day/a couple of hours before someone is coming over, usually in a state of panic. :lol

Morning, turdwaffles. For a day that is supposed to be dominated by rain, the drive in and current weather shows a pleasant bit of sunshine.

G'morning all. My colleague and I were moved from the 16th floor to the 8th floor over the weekend, and while my computer is working fine, our Bloomberg terminal is not  >:( Going to be a major PITA if that's not sorted by this afternoon. Also, at my new location I need to have my access card with me in order to make it back from the kitchen or the bathroom, which is pretty annoying.

Probably eventually.  For now, she will be coming back home on the weekends.

Once my daughters get moved down to Raleigh, I will start going there for weekends.  Until I find a job in the area, when I can move my own sorry ass down there lol

Hef: GlassDoor.com and LinkedIn Job Search are your friends. They weed out the bullshit listings the best. At least, that's what I found during my hunt.

I made the mistake of trying to trust Careerbuilder when I first started the hunt last summer. Got a call back within a day and was optimistic, only to find out it was a bait and switch cold-calling sales job listed under a "Marketing Manager" position title. Complete horseshit. The two sites I listed do a really good job of not showing the crap listings, plus GlassDoor has all kinds of features that let you read employee reviews on companies and see salary reports to get an idea of what range you might be facing.

I was going to type up something, but I'll PM you instead. No need to clutter the chat thread with in depth discussion of methods of sour beer production  :loser:

:hifive: :hug:


Took my old headlight out. bulb was black :p. Put the new one in but the attachments were in the old rusty headlight so we made a rubber ring from a TV ariel cable and used the springs from

4 bulldog clips to keep the headlight in place. I love that. Necessity is the mother of invention. Don't got something ? Make it ! :D

Went for a ride and it's a decent light. Could be brighter of course but i'm not a car. I only have 1 headlight.

Not too cold out but my hand hurt after a while as I have a sore finger and I had to boil the kettle when I got in as my hot water / heating is not working right now.
