Dragons are F'ing Awesome

54. New year, new me, new blog. I had a title somewhere but I don't remember what it was or if I will even like it in hindsight
55. We have a fireplace (non-functional) and a chiminea (broken in 4-5 pieces on the front yard) right now. We're also going to buy a fire pit
56. I'll make sure we have it before 12/21
57. Fire is definitely IN the question!
58. FIRE!
59. Non-linear is good
60. I ate frost burned chicken nuggets for lunch
61. My work desire-o-meter is 1 today.
62. Whopper got a job with the vendor, apparently. This assures me that my future is secure, or theirs is not.
63. Offline, clipless pedals, driveway/parkway...Stephen Wright
64. I guess 5 is a lot, but taxes here are reasonable. Long Hill is getting stupid
65. I grew up with 1 bathroom and a hedgerow
66. Woody has a few epic stories - well water, bathroom remodeling, sea kayaking, a barbed-wire gun, camping in 5 degrees with winter sleeping bags. I have only been invloved with 1 of those 5
67. I was, however, with him when he shaved his head into a mohawk the day before Thanksgiving while we were in college
68. I may have encouraged him to do that
69. I also may have been around when he ate like a bucket full of sour apple candies then vomited behind our friend's couch. It was green.
70. But it's not like I force fed him
71. We once lived on a trailer full of our furniture on the street for 1 day
72. I should stop now
73. I wanted to install a urinal in the old house but wasn't allowed.
74. Woody, Cliffy, and I once built a trebuchet. Mostly it failed but we did manage to fling a huge snowball about 50 feet
75. At that moment the 3 of us cheered as if we landed a man on the moon
76. But it was really just a snowball
77. The next one, or 1 after that, went backwards and landed on the house
78. The reason I say this is because I can imagine a scenario where we have such a device, a fire, drunk people, and a junkyard behind us.
79. The raccoons got to the garbage bag I left outside. That was a total rookie mistake
80. Why does Chrome think the plural of raccoon is not correctly spelled?
 
You mean you drank beer and watched woody build a trebuchet? 🙂

Woody, does norm build trebuchets like he moves furniture?
 
73. I wanted to install a urinal in the old house but wasn't allowed.

I regret to inform you that you won't be allowed to install a urinal in this house either :getsome: if you want a bidet maybe we can talk...😀
 
I would just like to have one of those a public restroom-style tankless toilets with the water accelerator thingy.

But I think they're really expensive(?)
 
81. I feel like it was in the morning, so I probably wasn't drinking beer at that point in the day. Maybe.
82. I'm surprised you didn't notice the urinal in the dining room last night. Conveniently located right next to the wine bottles:

Why is your fireplace non functioning? I was kinda zoning out when the former owner started talking about it(when we where moving stuff on your porch)...something wrong with insert?

I LOL'd
 
83. The other house was normal too
84. But like 1/3 the size
85. Maybe you could come in January when we decide the fate of MTBNJ?
86. Kevin makes a great observation and gets points for noticing the details. D's parents were here Mon night through Sat morning, my parents were around Wed/Thu, and her brother & boyfriend were here Thursday to Saturday morning. They all helped move stuff around, put stuff together, wire stuff up, unpack, put stuff away, and make food. D's mom made Thanksgiving dinner.
87. Yes, gay people have been in our house
88. No, neither made a pass at me
89. The thing is, when other people unpack your stuff you have no idea where it goes. I had no idea where the measuring cups were.
90. We set up Iggy's train tonight.
91. But it was like looking for the Holy Grail finding the remote.
92. D found it. The thing with Indiana Jones did not open when she opened the box with it in there, so in the end it was not actually the Holy Grail
93. Utah and I found out that the Mona Lisa was most recently assessed at $772 million, or something like that
94. That's nuts
95. If I had all the money in the world, and it was for sale, I would not buy it.
96. Frankly, I'm not that impressed by it
97. I find the Ivory Ball thingy I told him about more interesting
98. Maybe I'll find the link for that tomorrow.
99. Luft balloons
100. The fireplace hasn't been used, and the guy put a new hot water heater in and vented it through the chimney. The house inspector said we should change that. The trebuchet-building me says F it, smoke it if you got it
101. There's a huge difference between dropping a 1 pound snowball on your roof and setting it on fire, so we'll probably not set anything on fire in there just yet
102. The tree is up & decorated, looks pretty good. If you come 12/21 you may see it
103. This assumes the kids don't tear it down
104. Oh we have FIOS, it was installed by a guy who probably used to drive a truck for a living
105. I literally had to help him run the cables in the wall and tell him where to drill a hole in the floor
106. He said Jeremy was a jerk
107. Not really, I just made that up
108. But I bet he's wondering if he knew the guy
109. He didn't
110. Ok I think that's all. I'm going to make #111 wait another day.
 
I like the use of numbers and listing. Maybe that is the teacher in me. Or perhaps its the OCD/anal part of me. I'm going with the first option.

I was excited to have an Google pop up...even though I wasn't able to chat. I have been helping a study hall student with her chem homework. Maybe they should pay me more ;-) but you can shoot me a line or four there!
