Did dry Jan to support a friend, ..... and I just kept it going...... believe me there were times I almost said yeah gimme a beer..... but I just didn't.

I know my liver is the most surprised of anyone. I ill say I have saved a lot of Rubles.

that's just too bad because i just found the best value tequila (<$26), taste is easily $40 . Their plata ($20) is well below their taste value also.

Anyone ever do a 'Dry January' (no booze for the entire month)?

Welp, I'm doing a Dry Summer. Started on June 18th, I think I'll take it out until at least the Birds opening game of the season.

Good news = I've lost 12 - 15 lbs (it fluctuates). Bad news: I seem to have replaced the booze habit with a sugar one, LOL. I don't want or crave alcohol, but, put a Swedish Fish candy or a piece of Hershey's chocolate in front of me and I will devour them. 🙃

how has it affected your peen cravings?

for the real estate peeps like @binkybink77 , I have officially listed my place in MN for sale as a plan to move back to the poverty-stricken area known as the southern tier in NY!

why the f would you move back there? get sheet canned from your job?

I obviously like Disney. I really don’t need them buying literally all the media I enjoy consuming

Too late

I don't watch any of those stupid talking head shows anyway, all I care about is the live sports and that they don't screw up Red Zone with Screamin' A or McAfee.

I have a plumber here right now, and he is back there going to town, f'ing me every way possible. Gotta tell you, doesn't feel good.

Good news. It was not the fittings that were easily accessible, it's the tub faucet that they're going to have the cut through the subfloor to get to.

Now they cut the shower pan, which was fine. Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit sniffing glue,

The poor plumber guy literally started crying when he was apologizing for the shower pan. Never had that happen before. I couldn't really lay into him after that. We're all people (except for Arthur Jackson's clones), people make mistakes, all you can do is hope they own up to it and make it right.

aging family and my sister just had a baby on Wednesday. Still holding same job, so once I offload my MN mortgage payment I actually might begin feeling white trash rich!

Cute little one..... you have ONE JOB now...... you influence that child to be a Birds fan.

Other than that I could care less what you do up there....... you could go around humping water buffalo... or stop humping water buffalo...... just help raise that child right.

It's going to be a Panthers fan because of all of his cats. Agent is a closet Panthers fan too.

Her father is an eagles fan so I think we’ll have the influence covered perfectly.

20 year olds make poor choices, btw.

I had a few lizards as a kid. Pretty easy to take care of, you just need a steady supply of crickets. Mealworms should only be given as an occasional treat and only if the lizard is an adult.

What age does a lizard become an adult?
