    You ever get one of those crazy sneezing fits where you sneeze like ten times in a minute and everything in your face starts watering?.

    I set my own personal record with 12 sneezes in a row yesterday. Started walking on sneeze 3 to wash my hands (I barely got my hand up to cover it in time instead of the shoulder block), sneezed all the way there, sneezed while washing that hand and then all the way back to my desk. Made my head hurt and I pulled something in my leg.
    :lol: Same thing happened to me yesterday. Got in the double digits. Had to sit for a minute after just to recover.

    Competitive sneezing isn't for the weak. Pulled a muscle in your leg because of all of the sneezing? Not nice of me, but can I tell you how hard I'm laughing at the visual?

    My boss has been sneezing like that for the past like 4 days...I say bless you every time, but I think it's starting to get pointless.... :rofl:

    ^^ The Tile Guy Returneth?

    Si. And I pointed all the sloppy grout and request that he fix it. Did I tell you guys about the towel bar? I don't remember. We have old fashioned towel bars (it's an old building) kind of like this, though not exactly:
    image
    Well many years ago one end snapped right off the wall. big ole square hole in the tile. WELL. Mr. Grout Happy Tile Man decided to be nice and fill that whoooooooooole thing in with uneven grout! Kind of him wasn't it? Oh, except that he didn't bother to mention he was going to do that, and the broken off towel bar holding bit, AND the bar itself, was on the bathroom shelf right in front of his face! :angry: Which I would have mentioned, if, you know, anyone had bothered to inform me that this was going to happen. So now, homie is in there knocking all that grout out and fixing the goddamned thing.

    And to be pro-actively overly defensive, the reason I don't really know what's going on in there is cuz of the structure of the bathroom. You cannot look and the shower while the door is open. As in, when you fling the door open, it will hit the shower. As in, if we had a door stop, it would be on the shower, not the wall. So since 99.9% of what's being done involves the man leaning over the shower or on the floor in front of the shower, the door cannot physically be open for me to peer in, and I cannot open said door with the intention of peering in, without potentially knocking him in the head or knocking over his supplies.

    No but seriously though I've been up since 3 I'd like to nap.

    ^^ Do what I just did to my daughter. I just removed her bedroom door and hauled it downstairs. If she wants to be a pig, let the whole world know. My husband wouldn't do it, so I got the drill and hauled that mother down myself. Remove the door and you'd see better! Oh, and then you could sing to Mr. Grout Happy Tile Man, "BUSTED!" Just like I sing to my daughter.

    LOL There is no way I'm getting that door off. I think he's almost done. The thing they were gonna replace did not come in so he's just fixing up odds and ends now.

    My niece is graduating from high school tomorrow. She is graduating from an online school, ECOT. I just looked online. Last year's graduating class has a world record of 2800+ students. (3200+ actually graduated, but 2800 showed for ceremonies.) OMG what am I going to be sitting through? I love her. I really, really love her.

    Snacks, books, Kindle, phone, camera . . . more snacks . . .

    Entertainment from Susan-- check! You know, I will probably do that. Already checked on the venue all the need-to-knows from Derby Dave. (He's that guy and knows ALL that stuff.) He did. Gave me directions and whatnot. My brother called me and is pissed that my mom and dad aren't going. I offered them a ride. They wouldn't even have to pay for gas or parking. They've chosen to go to their property on the Ohio River instead. Never mind that this is their first grandchild to graduate, she worked her ass off to get there and could really use the moral support. Should be a fun day!

    We're all cheering her on! She has a whole crowd of people she's never met cheering her on. Many of whom are degenerates. On second thought, don't tell her.

    It's definitely good to have people cheering you on when you graduate! I didn't go to my high school ceremony (pretty sure I was off getting high with my friends somewhere, lol), but only my parents came to my university graduation (no one else - I was pissed), and for some fucking reason neither one of my parents clapped when I crossed the stage. All I could hear was crickets. When I called them out later, they said they didn't know they were supposed to clap, even though they'd already sat through half the alphabet listening to everyone else's families clap and cheer. :i_dunno:

    I skipped my first college graduation because I already had booked my trip to Atlanta for Music Midtown to see PJ (and others) :giggle: Even if I didn't have that scheduling conflict I doubt I would've done it - the only person who would've been willing to go (my mom) would've had a hassle with her mobility issues. For whatever reason they decided to have it at the Javits Center instead of MSG that year, and the Javits center is HUGE. MSG would've been less hard on her cuz it's less walking, even though it would still be a hassle.
