SHOTGUN!

Morning, thanks for the new part Dee.

Happy Independence Day!

Thanks Dee. :)

Happy 4th of July to our American friends! :grouphug: :)

I’m in, thanks Dee. Happy 4th July American friends :grouphug:

Congrats on shotgun, Sao!

Thank you for the new thread, Dee!

morning all. poor performance by England yesterday, well done India.

did anything else happen in sport? ;)

Morning, Andy.

Not so much in sport, in acting world on the other hand...

Sao - here's where you "watching paint dry" joke came from:

...
i dont think you can be a shotgun in a new part thats just cheating Sao :)

Hey MB, Snuf, Lily and Andy :wavey:

Happy holiday to the american people
:usa2:

France Uruguay is on Friday at 16h00 in the afternoon.
Yesterday somebody tried to fix a meeting from 16h00 to 18h00 on friday afternoon and of all the invitees not one accepted :)

Afterwards everyone in the dept blocked their agendas on friday afternoon with phoney meetings :)

We cant complain really can we.

Vinny, it should be day off - I don't think most of male population in France and Uruguay will be of any use anyway.

In 10 days I am going on another round of my "business trip".

I think I've just failed my 30 days no complaining challenge because I am complaining and not offering any solution.

I am going into full self-sabotage mode already.

It reminds me of my lame attempt to run away from home when I was 18. Looking back I regret I didn't do it. Because now I realize I was in "no reasoning out" situation.

I made a call home and my jerk brother lied to me that my mother was in a hospital with a heart attack to get me back home.

It was her favorite tactic to manipulate me into anything - that she was about to have a heart attack.

To be honest I was a homish girl and was scared to go into nowhere.

My instincts new better, false reasoning failed me.

I have to run now. I am scared again.

MBlue...STOP.

You're talking yourself in to a fail.

Stop it. Go workout. Hit the body bag.

Never mind.

maybe its football withdrawl ? or goal keeper withdrawl ? :)

To be honest i wouldnt mind saying no to some business trips too but its part of work and that pays the bills and the mortgage...

How long is the trip for this time ?

Goalkeeper withdrawal definitely.

20 days. Too long.

Oh I never play fair VMan. That's probably how I could always justify my drinking in the past. I would cheat myself.

I hope all you American folks have a good (and sober) day today. It seems odd having a public holiday on a Wednesday. If it were on a Tuesday or a Thursday then you could make a long weekend out of it but that is not easy on a Wednesday is it? Maybe that's a good thing for abstainers.

Your a weekender superstar Sao, like part of the furniture.
How long did you open it every week, over a year or was it more ?

I say Sao got shotgun fair and square.

MB, where are you going this time? Travel, paid for by someone else? I'm in! :)

Do you want to be self-employed and/or write for a living? I thought that was what you said recently.

It's actually nice weather here which rarely happens on the 4th. My little town has a community parade today, I'll probably walk up there and mingle with the families and firemen. Then they do a re-enactment of a Brits/upstarts gun battle, with horses and costumes and the whole bit. Spoiler, red coats make it easy to pick off the invaders. :lmao:

Independence Day is my favorite holiday except for the blowing-things-up part. They outlawed fireworks in my city, but the local big-box mega-church sells them right up the street. Something is wrong with this picture.

I may buy some baby back ribs (already cooked of course) and corn on the cob. Maybe. I do have a full refrigerator and don't need it.

Have a good sober day everyone.

Going on precedent in other threads, shotgun applies to part twos as well Vman - sorry :)
