COLD DARK ROOM

[Moozillion]

Hubby has appropriated my desk at home so I'm off to the thrift store to look for another!

I'd better clarify lest anyone get annoyed with him. Hubby is a professional photographer/portraitist who works for himself. We will be turning one of our front rooms into a Consultation and Sales office, and he will be bringing clients here. My current desk is small and simple but new and quite nice. It will now be assigned to that house office.
So that's why I'm getting another one.

It's cold here but of course no rain !
How's life ?

Sweet.
Finished work for the day (two hours), so now some house tidying and cleaning, which i quite enjoy.
Yourself ?

Since potatoes originated in the New World, I wonder what Moroccans ate before 1492 or so?

Same as the British.
Mud.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Its $160 no matter how long it takes

Then either they are just being awkward or taking their "walk around for a bit" break.
I think the law says they've got to have those.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

GOOD FOR HER!!!!
Actually, good for the country and legal system that allowed it!

Things are getting better here, slowly but surely.

You too, Gramps!
Dollars (or Dirham, here) and Torts.
The meaning of life !

I just sang a song.
And Tidgy ran away!

 

[Gillian M]

Golly!

Somewhat strange isn't it?

She might have not liked your voice. Try Wifey's voice.

(That is, even though I STILL that torts do not hear).

I went to jiffy lube once. The wait was 30 mins but the service was quick.
I'm at a Honda. Last time I was here to get my brakes replaced, it took 3 hrs

I service my own vehicles (with factory parts.)
I got lazy once and took an old Toyota into jiffy lube for a manual transmission oil change. They left the oil out. Two hours later, my transmission locked up. They bought me a used unit. I installed it myself.
Years before I had a brand new car. My first new car. The robot installed oil filter would NOT come off. I took my oil and my oil filter to them for them to install for me. Short story. They damaged my radiator. Fixed it only after a bunch of phone calls. So for the next four years I got to look at a big blob of weld on my brand new radiator on my new car.
Both times, they also tried to upsell me things that I didn't need.
Now I will no longer go there and will tell my story when I can.

 

[Gillian M]

Right, time to buy a potato.
It's currently not raining, so psychic umbrella switched on, and off i go.
Back in a bit.

Enjoy it.

Here, it is still pouring with rain.

Hi Ed, and sorry to have read such a story.

Hi Ed, and sorry to have read such a story.

I've told it here before.

 

[ZEROPILOT]

Generally no one works on my vehicles but me. Unless it's a factory recall or warranty work. Because i only own Toyotas, there is no warranty work.
But a lot of recalls.
I've got the extended service on my new Kawasaki, also. But only because the replacement parts are crazy expensive and things that are generally not repairable.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Somewhat strange isn't it?

Unbelievable!

 

[Killerrookie]

Hello Adam! How are you?

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

I've told it here before.

And will again, no doubt.
You can't overuse a good anecdote.
