Pity Party Part Deux. Post here why you need pity.

[FuzzySlippers]

Me, I have a slight migraine, which is going to turn into a monster migraine if I don't stop drinking. Post here why you need pity and we'll all commiserate.

[Sanity Claws]

1. I don't have a significant other

[BikeWriter]

3. That can be hell, but at least you aren't being screamed at.

[FuzzySlippers]

4. Welcome to my world.

:-(

[GOPisEvil]

5. Heh...join the club.

But, no pity for me. Fortunately, I enjoy my own company. :D

[FuzzySlippers]

7. Yeah. We all know about HOW you enjoy your own company.

:P

[GOPisEvil]

8. Hey...a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do.

:P

[BikeWriter]

2. Oh, I'm so sorry! My house is so messy I can't stand it...

Some lazy butthead never cleans it. :(

[FuzzySlippers]

6. I got the same lazy butthead around my place.

I have one word for you. Arson.

[BikeWriter]

9. Hmm... *BW goes to check his insurance policy...*

[FuzzySlippers]

10. Psssst.......

(just make sure you make it look like an accident.)

[BikeWriter]

11. Oh, I have sixty college hours in Fire Technology. :-)

[FuzzySlippers]

12. They offer a degree in fire technology?

[BikeWriter]

13. Galveston College did when I took it.

[shugah]

28. i attended a few semesters at galveston college

i wonder if bujo waddell is still teaching there?

[BikeWriter]

36. You remember Mr. Waddell? Wasn't he American Government...

or something? I seem to recall he had written some textbooks or something too.

[shugah]

41. ah bujo!

i really only remember him because of his name. i was doing exile in texas (altho my son is BOI ;-) ) bujo waddell was just such a fun texas name for a yankee like me!

plus he was on the galveston dem steering committee or something. he was definitely involved in the dem party. that was how i knew him before i took a class with him. and yes, it was a government class of some sort.

[BikeWriter]

47. He's one of the few teachers I remembered...

I went there in the early 1970s. I Googled Mr. Waddel's name and he's still active in politics. He's chairing an Election Equipment Task Force now. I have no idea if he's still teaching. It's interesting running into someone who knew him too. :)

[shugah]

49. indeed it is!

i was in galveston for a few (8 long) years in the 80s. most of the texas population at that time was probably exiles from michigan ;-)

i'm glad to hear that bujo is still active and bucking things in texas! galveston had some great dems when i lived there.

[BikeWriter]

52. Yes'm, we did, and still do for that matter....

It's been nice meeting you here. :-)

[shugah]

54. is evangeline wharton still around?

she was so fantastic! everything about her pointed repub, but she was a completely rocking dem!

galveston is such a study in contradiction! juneteenth has all it's roots in galveston. and the moody's and more recently george mitchell... personally, i think the island would be a great gambling destination! what else can galveston offer? (answering my own question - el napolita's!)

does the colonel still offer dinner cruises? have any of the captains learned to say "bolivar"?

[BikeWriter]

55. Evangeline Wharton? The name sounds familiar...

but escapes me at the moment. I've met one Captain from the paddlewheeler. I'm not certain if it's still in business. Yep, Galveston is quite a historic city.

[progmom]

14. I'm at work, preparing for a big meeting in the morning.

I'm not nearly as prepared as I should be right now. And all I really want to do is sleep. :cry:

[GOPisEvil]

15. Work?

It's TEN O'CLOCK there. :wtf:

[progmom]

16. i just progspawn to sleep and jumped in the car to come back to the office

[GOPisEvil]

[FuzzySlippers]

18. I'm so sorry, sweetie.

[progmom]

19. thanks.

sorry i couldn't chat when you were there. i was just being paged to read a story. :)

[FuzzySlippers]

20. That's alright. I understand.

:-)

[no name no slogan]

21. because my ex- almost took my kitties to the shelter

...even though she KNEW I can't get them until Monday.

Oh, also because I married a succubus nine years ago. Does that count for anything?

[FuzzySlippers]

22. Yeah. That sure counts for something.

Almost taking your cats to the shelter? That's appalling!

[no name no slogan]

23. Yeah, I'll never marry a succubus again
