2ForTripping Posted November 2, 2012 Report Posted November 2, 2012 I said on last Thursday's complaint thread that I was going to report on the good news the following day. However, with everything that was going on last Friday, I didn't have the time to fully disclose what happened. 1. We finally bought a house and moved a lot closer to our respective jobs. My wife no longer has to commute 40-45 minutes to work. Now it's down to like 10-15 max. My commute is a bit shorter as well - especially at night! :D 2. Right after we closed on the house, we filled out a preliminary application to adopt a child. good luck to you... question about the potential child. does it have to be a white child or are you open to a child of a different race?

Eleven Posted November 3, 2012 Report Posted November 3, 2012 Or at least open a Corona bottle with the calves..... That would ruin the beer, the bottle, the sand, waves, and possibly the weather in surrounding counties.
biodork Posted November 3, 2012 Report Posted November 3, 2012 My house is okay, apart from a minor fence issue that will require repair. Overall, feeling very fortunate to have what I do and to be back home safely when so many have lost so much in the several days.

Eleven Posted November 3, 2012 Report Posted November 3, 2012 1) BD, glad to have you back. 2) My facebook page right now. Hilarious. My sister is an amateur comedian.
darksabre Posted November 9, 2012 Report Posted November 9, 2012 Got my first paycheck from the new job on Wednesday. F'N fantastic.
Sabres Fan in NS Posted November 9, 2012 Report Posted November 9, 2012 Got my first paycheck from the new job on Wednesday. F'N fantastic. :thumbsup: You and Jo should use some of it to celebrate and go out for a nice meal, or something.
dEnnis the Menace Posted November 9, 2012 Report Posted November 9, 2012 :thumbsup: You and Jo should use some of it to celebrate and go out for a nice meal, or something. I second this. For me: one of my old supervisors (from my college job) is getting married this weekend, so after a nice dinner with the girlfriend tonight in Syracuse (we're trying an Italian place called Dominick's), I'm heading to Boston (leaving tomorrow morning I think). Excited for both. :beer:
FogBat Posted November 9, 2012 Report Posted November 9, 2012 Fantastic!! :thumbsup: Best of luck! Great stuff! Great news!! Specifically about point #2. I know it can be a protracted process, but in the end it is my hope that God blesses you both with a child. good luck to you... question about the potential child. does it have to be a white child or are you open to a child of a different race? Thanks, guys! :) As for the last quote, it doesn't matter. The nest has always been empty and we've been looking to fill the void for quite some time.

We had Mighty Taco last night, does that count? :lol:

spndnchz Posted November 16, 2012 Report Posted November 16, 2012 Sabres gave me four free tickets to the Amerks game tonight! Wanted to give them to d4rk and they still haven't come in the mail. F'n Fantastic.
dEnnis the Menace Posted November 16, 2012 Report Posted November 16, 2012 1) Bills won, so for one week I don't have to listen to the resident Pats fans or Giants fans giving me sh!t here at work. 2) after this weekend, it's only a 3 day week. 3) my dad and I have been at odds for a few months over some stupid stuff, and we were finally able to reconcile. I'm going to Buffalo tonight, and my sister, my dad, and I are going to dinner together (first time in a long time). It's nice to be able settle stuff.
biodork Posted November 16, 2012 Report Posted November 16, 2012 This had me cracking up the other day: why you should be glad gay men like each other and not your girlfriends
shrader Posted November 16, 2012 Report Posted November 16, 2012 This quote that my supervisor emailed me is f'n fantastically stupid: "I believe that most Americans are not waking up to the fact that we have reached a point where, according to author Charles Murray's "Real Education. . .", nearly half of the students in our class are performing below average. What are we going to do about this emergency? We cannot afford to keep having kids spending so much time playing and fooling around. Longer school days and more days per year are important until every child is at the top of the class. Isn't that what the American dream is all about?" Thank god for the entertainment provided by stupid people.
