I'd save money by sleeping in the bed of the truck rather than a motel room, so that gave me more money for drinking.

k, take all the time you need to cry. I still say eff em.

I am so excited to be getting on a plane next Monday am to go spend Thankgiving with daughter's family, including in laws. I haven't been up there in over a year and am so desperate to see how much their baby has grown in the last year and a half. He looks just like his mom and his older brother looks just like his dad.

And to be able to see her in laws will be a great pleasure. THey are the kindest sweetest family she could want. Her mother in law is like a sister to me, we're that close. And they love my ek as tho she were their own daughter. I am so happy she married into such a wonderful family. I never have to worry about her happiness. She is truly blessed and has fulfilled all my hopes and dreams for her adult life. I am so grateful for her family loving her so much.

so humiliating. it hurts today...

You aint no loser Ma.

Cry all you need to, it's good to let it all out!

It's them who lost today anyway, I'll be celebrating their loss today - you were too good for them!!!

Once you've had a good boo-hoo, you'll be able to put it all in perspective over the next couple of weeks and plan an all new and improved, K-branded strategy!!!

Stone, have you read the story in the Big Book about the jaywalker?

Please don't be the jaywalker Paul, we miss you here.

Stoney used to refer to the jaywalker in the BB on here before, Astro. Didn't you use part of it as your sig line before, Stoney?

I'm glad you're still alive but wish you would stop running in front of cars.

Answer your phone - one of our friends has been trying to call you.

Giant hugs going out to K. Your bosses are giant a-holes. GIANT a-holes.

GIANT a-holes.

Stopping by to agree with everyone about K's boss. You aren't a loser, THEY are.

Paul...you are in my thoughts.
