Re: The Bad News Thread

So i walk out the door to go to work today and discover i have a flat tire so im gonna be late. Well that sucks but no biggie, at least its not snowing anymore so it could be worse. I already plugged the tire twice so this time i decide to throw the spare on and go to work. Im almost done putting the spare on when suddenly my dog breaks free a worn out board on the fence and decides to go exploring beyond the wide world of my backyard. I stand up to go chase him and strain my back. What feels like an hour later i finally grab him near the end of the block as he stops to take a leak. I start attempting to go to work and call my coworker to let him know and he says to just stay home and take it easy so i do. Im typing this as i lay on the floor abou to go to bed, hoping tomorrow will be easier to deal with because the impending freezing temps means we might get admin pay for the first time in two winters.

Mooby get better. Day before yesterday I witness semi-miracle with a loose dog...a dooberman puppy weighing about 50 lbs was running around at the local park which was fine but he then ventured on the ice of a small lake, walking towards the unfrozen middle. The owner and I...immediately put my lab on a leash...were freakin out yelling. Then I ran away with my dog towards the field which the Dobberman saw and gave chase, running back onto ground.

He must have walked 20 feet onto the lake...its like you get that sudden "impending doom" feeling, man...me and the owner freaked out yelling. side note, the owner, she is a dirty blond from California with a fat ass. I was probably paying too much attention.

Some days the world just tries testing your limits. Thanks G1. It'll get better, a heating pad and sleeping on the floor usually helps.

Wife has back problems that would make grown men cry it's so bad .We bought a Tempurpedic bed ...HOLY SHIT!!! It's GREAT! We've had ours almost 7 years now the new ones are nicer but I swear to God it will wreck you for any other bed! They are costly but I swear they are worth it!

Thanks TMC. In the grand scheme of things it feels insignificant, but right now with a stiff back it's just another nagging annoyance. A few days of r/r and some stretching and I'll be fine. And the weekend starts tomorrow so it could be worse.

True, true. Take two of these and call me in the morning.



Have a good weekend!

I was always more a vodka guy myself, but that would do just fine on a day like today. Thanks TMC, hope you have a good weekend too. Stay warm lol.

I'm jealous, I spent 1g on the so called "Best Mattress Ever, TM" (literally the name) by the Brooklyn Bedding Co. about 2 years ago, it's one of those hybrid hard/soft memory foam mattresses, and while it's ok, it did become uneven even though memory foam is supposed to flatten out. I believe you on the Tempurpedic, heard nothing but good things, but that's def out of my bracket lol.

I feel like this story is incomplete Chico, sounds like you had a potential bonding situation there while you both laughed about saving the dog. I get what you're saying about that impending doom though, had those same thoughts when my dog was crossing the street at full speed lol. Kept thinking with my luck he'll end up crossing at the same time as some guy comes driving down the street. Luckily nothing happened other than my dog getting to experience true freedom for a bit.

I wish there was more too it. She is a cool chick, but really never attracted to her becuase she had too metal attached to her face...2 nose rings, an eyebrow and multiple ear rings. Just recently she went with just one nose ring and that’s it...boom now she looks 10 times better. So weird how that works

Re: The Bad News Thread

Mooby.

Wife had three metal bars inserted in her back(1997) that stretch her torso 3 inches (Scoliosis).The first bed was a Queen bed and it was almost 3 grand then but they had some money off and the Doctor wrote a prescription that knocked off another 8 hundred,yes we were tight but it was a quality of life thing.Then we put that one in the guest room and bought a king ,I don't know about the "new" foam beds but the tempurpedic are amazing and if you do buy it get the box spring all so.All we have is the regular firm and yes I did the glass test (with water) and it works I swear.

Re: The Bad News Thread

It's not really a hard problem to understand Chico, you just know where the line is. I'm not attracted to multiple facial piercings either, I don't mind if you get a nose ring, or an eyebrow, or w/e just don't overdo it.

G1, that sounds like a hell of a shitshow to deal with, esp with how stingy back problems are and there never really seems to be one common cure for them. Glad the Temperpedic is working out for you, it's on my "maybe, someday" list for now lol.

Re: The Bad News Thread

I can never find my stroke in missionary on those temperpedic style mattresses, it’s like trying to bang on the beach.
Regular spring mattresses are the way to go if you want to bring the pipe.
