    Customer just asked me if I was "trying to grow my hair out." I think that's hairdresser code for, "your hair looks like shit." :oops:

    60F and rain every day does not a nice summer make.

    Come to Texas and complain about the heat, humidity and low amount of rain. It's a different degree of bitchiness. :D

    I don't know how you "normies" do it.

    I had to wake up at 6:30 this morning (!) to be downtown for a meeting. I was away from home all day. Now I feel jet-lagged or something.

    WTF, Chicago?
    They just relinquished their hold on my husband and now his flight's cancelled and they're possibly evacuating O'Hare.

    Try being jet-lagged from being jet-lagged. It turns you into a drowsy rage-monster for days.

    I swear to god I'm losing IQ points every time I come back from work. It's quite horrible.

    ...

    Me and my First World Problems:

    Fuck you, fancy pants high-end boutique modern sporting rifle manufacturer!

    I don't want your new and improved trigger or your ergonomic ambidextrous fire controls!

    I just want the same product I bought from you a couple years ago. I don't want you to grow and adapt!

    Now I have two similar but not identical lowers in my basement. And my inner OCD is flaring up something fierce.

    SOMETHING FIERCE.

    Fuck!

    Yeah, his flight is cancelled, he's scrambling for some place to stay near the airport. Sounds like all hell is about to let loose.
    Seriously, they just agreed he doesn't have to keep commuting weekly YESTERDAY.
    Apparently the whole area is a fustercluck.

    Yup. My wife said our power just went out for a little bit. It NEVER goes out, because all the lines are buried in our town. Apparently the worst of it just passed our area. They were predicting wind shears of up to 100mph.

  17. This morning the forecast for Metro Detroit was the same shit that has hit Chicago. We will likely dodge that. Hope everyone has stayed safe and relatively dry.

    TWC's live "on the scene" dude standing out in bad weather is about 10 miles away from my house as the crow flies. That's always reassuring. My wife has been in and out of the basement the last couple of hours, but it seems the worst has passed. A couple of really bad episodes of hail though she says.

    If it makes you feel any better, I was in Panama City Beach when Hurricane Allison hit. We drove inland for the night, and back to our hotel the next day. The sun was shining, people were out walking the beach in their bathing suits... and a reporter from the Weather Channel was standing on the beach, in a full poncho/rain outfit, "reporting from the scene." :rolleyes: I've had trouble trusting in any of their "special reports" since then.

    10 seconds after I read your post my wife called. Apparently the field behind our subdivision flooded from the torrential rain and dumped mud and cornstalks down our street and across much of our front yard.

    Last time that happened I was home, and raked/shoveled it all out to the street and the city came and cleaned it all up. They even sent workers to help us with our yards. We'll see what happens tomorrow morning before I get home. It'll be just lovely if I have to return home from my road trip and deal with that mess.
