June 11, 201115 yr comment_451940 Sorry about the bad luck CJ and Vicki! That really really sucks. Report
June 11, 201115 yr comment_451953 Better luck to both of you. Me - about to start Lily's 3rd birthday party. Report
June 11, 201115 yr comment_451955 Well, I just got off the phone with my friend and the body shop. Good news, other than my friend and child being okay, is that the woman who hit my car admitted fault and was driving a company car. There was no mechanical damage, but the hood, front bumper and one of the front sides need to be replaced. The company just wants to take care things and have no problems. I'll know more on Monday.

June 11, 201115 yr comment_451956 Sorry about the car wreck Vicki but I'm glad no one is hurt. I hope your luck (and CJ's) turns around quickly and that your car is repaired in a timely manner. Now I'm afraid to go out of my apartment! Report
June 11, 201115 yr comment_451961 @Nate ... Lily is three. How time does fly. Happy Birthday to her, and hope the little man also has fun at big sis' party, as well as mom & dad. Report
June 11, 201115 yr comment_451970 I know it sounds kind of corny, but these updates reminded me of when my grandmother died. Some cousins in NJ hosted the extended family and very close friends, and we reminisced about our grandmother and focused on new life: all the kids/grandkids around. It was an amazing weekend, ended up being really positive and full of laughs; and it just stuck in my memory. The parallels of "good news within bad" seemed to set that off. Happy birthday's to the little ones, and best of luck and good wishes to the big ones. Edited June 11, 201115 yr by skullguise Report
June 11, 201115 yr comment_451974 My wife bought a mechanical edger to trim the grass where it meets the sidewalk, and cut the phone phone line that was shoved down between the grass and the sidewalk. I warned her about that and said we had to stick with the electric weed-wacker (the kind with rotating spool of fishing-line). Fortunately we use Comcast cable, internet and voice and have no downtime. But if we ever want to switch back to Qwest we'll be SOL. Not as bad as everyone else who're having problems, so I consider myself lucky so far - unless the neighbors start complaining about no phone service... Report

June 11, 201115 yr Author comment_452000 Happy birthday Lily. Peter's birthday party was a success. No one was seriously hurt or killed, so yay! Now we are chilling with a couple of Vespers. I think Karen is finally realizing that there is some up side to my cocktail obsession. Report
June 11, 201115 yr comment_452003 Jim ... a very Happy Birthday (some hours belated) to Peter, and congrats on Karen's cocktail appreciation. (ETTISWWT) Edited June 11, 201115 yr by agile_one Report
June 11, 201115 yr comment_452007 Oh....missed that it was Peter's big day as well. Happy birthday to young morphsci, and happy relaxing to mom and dad! Report
June 12, 201115 yr comment_452016 Indeed ... No one can accuse you of not being quick. OT here, but I just did a weekend in Key West for Becky's birthday with the Red Oxx C-Ruck as our main carry. It was brilliant, since we went and returned by boat, and I had to carry both days. So much easier with stuff on my back and waist than over a shoulder or on my arm. I'd say more, but even before there was a Las Vegas, there was "What Happens in KW, stays in KW" Report
