old lady is coming over tonight for dinner.  probably going to crush a bottle of red if she wants to drink.  if not I'll tilt back a couple of bourbons and we'll watch the last walking dead, as she has yet to see it.

tomorrow at noon I'll be watching PSU vs M at noon.  then we'll probably head downtown to see the xmas lights and crap like that at the xmas market and city hall.

Sunday, she is going to the gourmet food and wine show with a gf of hers.  I'll head to the sports bar to watch the 1 o'clocks with the guys.  

the show is fun because buffalo trace has a booth there so i had a rocking good time last year.  but now i only drink hard alcohol on non school nights (i'm 41 btw) and her tix were for a Sunday so i passed.

Well silly me forgot to let off the emergency brake....so while I had it jacked up and saw the brake pads were really in there, I went over and released the emergency brake.....and....BAM

van adjusts a little bit and falls on the rotar.  Oh i was so mad.

Fortunately i jacked it back up and this time put the wheel stops on and the emergency jack thingys in place....and drove the car around...no apparent damage.

Yep...smh

So I hope this weekend we can stay home and I won't hemorrhage any more money.

Quote:The instructions for MoviPrep, clearly written by somebody with a great sense of humor, state that after you drink it, ''a loose watery bowel movement may result.'' This is kind of like saying that after you jump off your roof, you may experience contact with the ground.

MoviPrep is a nuclear laxative. I don't want to be too graphic, here, but: Have you ever seen a space shuttle launch? This is pretty much the MoviPrep experience, with you as the shuttle. There are times when you wish the commode had a seat belt. You spend several hours pretty much confined to the bathroom, spurting violently. You eliminate everything. And then, when you figure you must be totally empty, you have to drink another liter of MoviPrep, at which point, as far as I can tell, your bowels travel into the future and start eliminating food that you have not even eaten yet.
