I plan to NOT shoot myself with the Nailgun this week. So far so good. Keeping my fingers off the trigger when not in use, watching how I aim it, etc. Had another ricochet nail bounce off a steel plate yesterday--bounced off that, hit my thumbnail, bounced off thumb and hit my lower lip. Double ouch (!!), but no penetration, no blood. I expelled some colorful profanity, though, and growled about needing an 'effing' cigarette. Co-workers lowered their heads and kept quiet--they know not to wisecrack when I'm in pain, by God. You don't wanna sass an angry man while he's holding a nail gun. Heh heh.

And we shall call him "twitchy" when he's using the nail gun..:) That nail gun has it out for you sir...plan accordingly..

Twitchy was a vibrant lad. He never meant no harm to no other, no sir! But ol' twitch made the same mistake they all do... he got careless. One second of distraction and "whump", right into the boss' buttocks. Now Twitchy flips pancakes at the Waffle House. They don't trust him yet to "scatter, smother and cover" anything...

...but on the plus side, he DID get to nail that buxom Third Shift waitress.....

Last night I was watching a Finnish league hockey game on TV. Our team had a road game, and as they showed scenes from outside of the arena, I saw there was a heavy snow fall: ha ha! too bad.

This morning, I open the shade,
D'OH: snow on the ground.

So this week is a loss for me kinda. I had the scare house and still haven't fully dismantled it. So I am cleaning that up each night and trying to return our home to a sense of normalcy. Once that is done I have to start getting out all the Xmas stuff. We also always do a fall clean up and pressure wash the tile roof, patio and sidewalks. Also cleaning carpets and other fun activities. I am also chaperoning a regional band competition this weekend for my son.

Oh, bonus last night... got surprise suite tickets to see The Pretenders and Stevie Nicks in Tampa. It was pretty good and FREE!!! Food and drinks too!
