Ignorance of the day

Toilet paper over, otherwise you have to spin spin spin it until you can find the end.

Nude sunbathing - sounds fun but absolutely not considering all my neighbors. Heck I would be afraid of scaring away the FedEx man on the day when he actually have something for me lol.

Lit the wrong end of a cig more times than I can count, and I lit one once right after appling a bunch of hairspay and like a flash all my hair caught fire. Did not do too much damage luckily but boy the smell is horrible.

The other day I was making a big old dish of that mexican dip for a party, you know the one with the chili, cheese, beans etc. Well taking it out of the oven it slipped out of my hands and hit the floor just right so that it splattered EVERYWHERE. My husband heard the noise and came running into the kitchen and absolutely could not believe his eyes. It was covering almost half the kithen, chili cheese goop dripping down the walls, all over the stove, some even splattered the ceiling. So dressed for the party I am frantic trying to clean it up before we had to run out the door. By the time I was able to get back to cleaning up the mess it had dried and now it could take me a week of scrubbing to get it all off :cry:.

I have done this too, I think it was either chili or mac & beef. Either way....I was wiping down walls, appliances, countertops, etc. for quite awhile.

I once used hot wax to wax my brows. I dropped some wax and without realizing it I had just ripped off more than 1/2 of my eyebrow, had to buy a brow pencil. Not so bad? Ok, try going to disneyland the NEXT day with less than 1/2 an eyebrow. :laughing:

I have done so many stupid things, lol.

Next time kick him in the back of the knee. He'll fall for sure and fall hard! You're going to need some help getting rid of the body and cleaning up any and all traces of blood. Unfortunately, I cannot help you with that but NotDeadYet can! She's the knower of all things.

Don't even get me started on that topic...who wants to bail me out of jail???

I will!! :love: But I have to be back before dinner. And you have to promise not to go all Thelma & Louise on my butt. My camry gets 31 mpg on the highway :laughing:

You guys did give me a chuckle when I needed it. I still want to see his head on the floor but maybe not stomp on it too, :cry: Thanks. Didn't mean to change the subject of the post,but the timing was just right. I do to many stupid things to even list here. Bad things just seem to happen for no reason when I'm around. :cry:

Okay...I am back on the killing of the darling husband subject...sorry just skip over this post...I didn't want to start another topic to vent!

We have been married for 16 years on the 6th of June ~ why do men think they can just change their own rules at the drop of a hat??? Since he has been at this job he has NEVER wanted anything heavy to eat when he comes in on 3rds during the summer. It is always ~ ALWAYS ~ something like a BLT, a sandwich, a baked potato, or a grilled cheese. I can always count on it. Not only did he work 3rds last night, but he worked overtime. He calls me at 4:00 ON HIS WAY HOME and asks me what I have cooked him to eat...me being the dumb wife that I am just assume that things would be the same and ask him what he would like to have...to which he goes off on a rampage!!! If he would have wanted anything different today couldn't he have told me this morning during the three times he called me to see what I was doing???? Heck no! Let's wait until he is on the way home! I just don't understand. Then he wants me to magically whip something up ~ he doesn't seem to understand that frozen things have to thaw and have time to cook and that things don't cook in 10 minutes.....

Thank you for letting me vent ~ now back to your regular topic which I so rudely interupped!!

Ok, first you need some tomatoes-check the dumpster behind McDonalds. Then, take a shovel and a trashbag and go to the interstate...that meat does not need thawing, but in this weather it will require a lot of spices.... :sunny:

I think that job closer to home will be better for him, Ping Pong. And maybe a lot less stressful to boot which is always nice. Happy Anniversary BTW :cheers:
 
Yeah ~ he is losing his little mind. Having to work so much overtime is killing him. I feel so sorry for him ~ really. The work conditions there are unbearable. The 'pots' are 1250 degrees. I can't imagine standing over something that hot and working on it. A couple of years ago he had a heat stroke and it is a very real possiblity that he could have another one. They are understaffed because they can't keep workers.

For all of his faults, I have to say that Jimmie is the hardest working man I have ever seen in my life! Almost to a fault ~ he thinks everyone should kill themselves ~lol! Other than kidney stones and the heatstroke he hasn't been really sick in years, so he doesn't understand that when I get sick I lay down. I am suppose to work through the pain ~ yeah right ~ lol!!
 
OMG, 1250 degrees?? No wonder he's miserable. He's miserable @ work and then he can't seem to find the switch to flip for when he comes home. Those work conditions are awful. Please tell me he won't be doing that at the new job if he decides to take it.
 
Well...we have to find one first. We are just thinking about it. I am encouraging it, but he doesn't do change very well. He is a creature of habit and it might be the death of him.

He was talking about a man that took his wife to work out there because she kept badgering him to work overtime ~ she walked in the front door and threw up from the heat. Didn't even make it to the pot rooms. I really don't see how those conditions can be legal. It is a really, really old plant. The new smelters are more user friendly. You have machines that help do a lot of the work.

They had a man that came in from a plant in like Alaska or something and he wanted to put those men in wool uniforms...can you imagine wool uniforms in that kind of heat? I think he wanted them all to die. That only lasted through May in Kentucky

I don't know, hun, but it does seem illegal. I don't know how he does it. And to hell with wool uniforms. That guy is either insane or hates his job. Who in their right mind suggests such a thing? UGH. Idiot.

Here's hoping you can talk Jimmie into getting another job :cheers: That kind of work in those conditions isn't fair to anyone.

I hear ya there, but the good thing is most of the time I forget whatever it is that I've done in just a couple of hours anyway :laughing:
 
Your know, we do all get really mad sometimes. I had a situation this morning where I was supposed to be able to read my hb mind from a distance. But like you said sometimes we do have to be more understanding of what they deal with too. My husband is under so much stress from work because of understaffing, but yeat it's still their fault that things can't get done. They've got all kinds of spending freezes going on but yet they're supposed to be able to do all of the same things. Thank God though that he's not working in that kind of heat. He must be at a power plant or something. Boy things just have to get better soon or I don't know what any of us will do. Then maybe your hubby can get out of there. Do they really expect to keep people in that kind of a working environement? How would anyone be able to tolerate that kind of heat? My hubby was on the phone to one of his bosses that seem to really feel for him. He is at his last straw. I heard him telling him that he is at the end of his rope. He's been having chest pains and what does that do to a persons mental capacity? They're supposed to make everyone happy with no way or funds to do it. :scratch: He's talking of changing jobs,but he would have to take such a pay cut even if he can find something else. His boss is completely understanding, but he can't do anything either because of the higher-ups that set in their nice cozy offices and don't have a clue. Everything is profit no matter what to them. I do hope things get better for you and your hubby and for everyone out there. Hang in there. I didn't mean for this to become so long.
 
(((Hugs)))) to those having a bad day or going through tough times.

Ping, vent away! I don't mind, this thread can take 10,000 turns and I wouldn't care. :love:
