I'm baaaaaack ... did anybody miss me?

[Bake]

Let's see ... in the weeks following my unemployment, I have painted my foyer and living room from a 15 foot scaffold, cleared and painted gutters from a 32 foot extension ladder, sanded and stained my deck, lost 10 pounds, had a colonoscopy (yeah, that gallon of buzzard puke you have to drink the night before is gross!) (but everyone over 50 should do it, dammit!!!).

Oh, and I'm still looking for a job, but it's OK, I'm hanging in there and have some prospects.

Didja miss me? Huh? Huh? Didja?

:hi: :hi: :hi:

1. Hi Bake,

My you've been productive.. please stop, you're setting the bar too high.

[Bake]

9. Yeah, it sucks. I'd rather hang out and post here.

But Mrs. B won't let me. Says I'm "slacking."

HA!

P.S. Geddy Lee is awesome.

[Bake]

5. Very funny, Doc.

Both on the subject line and the P.S.

6. 15 feet!

How high is your living room ceiling?

[Bake]

7. About 22 feet at the peak.

Fucking vaulted ceiling. I'll NEVER buy anything with a second floor, or ceilings over 8 or 9 feet EVER AGAIN!!

8. Hey Bake.

Glad to hear from you, and that you've been busy. Well all except for the Roto Rooter thing.:)
Good luck with the job search. I start my new one on Monday.

[Bake]

14. Or as my son calls it, the Ass-Cam.

They found and removed two pre-cancerous polyps, so it's a good thing I went in for it!

Good luck with your new job. I forgot to add that my band has been playing almost every weekend, so that helps a bit with the $$$.

Bake

[flvegan]

12. Yeah, but my aim will improve.

Good to hear you have some prospects.

[Bake]

16. It's good to be missed!

Seriously.

:hi:

Bake

[Shell Beau]

13. YES!!!! And boy did you miss some SHIT!

[Bake]

15. I figured I missed some good stuff. What happened?

Anybody declare war? Lose their mind? Etc.?

:hi:

Bake

[Shell Beau]

17. You got all day?

This has been a wacky week in the lounge!

[Inchworm]

18. Actually - you did come up between my ears today

Don't remember why.. hmm.. perhaps it was music related :D

Hurry back to work so you can take more breaks in teh Lounge.

Good to be back, though.

[LadyoftheRabbits]

24. Welcome back! (this is Lizziegrace...)

I thought maybe you'd moved to find a job.

Glad you had the colonoscopy. My mother's cancer was caught very, very early because she had the procedure.

How's the job search going? I got a job and started yesterday. It's not enough to cover rent/utilities and car payment, but it's a job.

:hug:

[Bake]

29. Workin' on it.

Glad you found something!

Bake

[TZ]

26. yes I did

Dr Strange mentioned literally the other day you hadn't been around . How's the job hunt coming...:hi:

[Bake]

I'd hate to have had to put you on my list!
