It's a beautiful 79 degrees here with 58% humidity, but this has been a record-setting summer for how cool it's been, and for how much rain we've gotten. From late June to mid-August, it seemed we got rain 4 or 5 times a week, way more than we did last year. Last year the temperature broke 100 degress numerous times, with an average in July of over 95 for most of the state. God, that sucked.

Maybe we'll have an actual winter this year.

Ticked - Wife is super sick and Ive been up since 3 because of it.
Smiled - Last night I hit level 6 in demo in Killing Floor. Now I spawn in with the single shot grenade launcher and two pipebombs. It makes me a beast. And pisses Ack off... Sadly Killing Floor is losing its edge to me so I am looking for something else we can all play easily. We have gotten to a point in Monaco where I dont know if I care to keep going. We have played alot of it and enjoy it thoroughly but some of the maps on hardmode are simply damn hard unless you have a coherent team, and Acks connection starts to pingpong on the bigger ones.

This would be more accurate if you removed my name and put in Xen's instead. We might consider holding off until the Halloween event.

Just for that, I may keep shooting you with it on first round.

Xen and I were talking about it, and we want to give some of the other maps a go with 5/6 players that we havent played that way - Like Abusement Park.

I'm cool with that. But seriously, it was Xen who was complaining about your grenade launcher. I was too busy killing the trash that made it to us to complain. I'm all for going to some of the maps we don't play as often.

I'm sorry, what?

Love Septembers in FL, where it doesn't even get "cold" till November.

Lol JMustang, we made our way in there a couple of times. Convinced one of my buddies was in love with one of the chics HA! Good times.

Now to what ticked me off this week:
1. Lawn mower breaks
2. House AC goes out
3. Frig breaks ("cooling at 55 degrees)
4. Truck battery dies

DID I WALK UNDER A LADDER!? To you younger guys on the board: Real life expenses... you'll find out one day. #GrumpOldManAttitude

:lol:

Yeah, cold meaning the temperature has hopefully dropped back down to the 70's. But that depends on where you live. It is a bit cooler along the coast. Go a little bit further inland and it doesn't start getting cool til the end of October... If you're lucky.

Tell me about it. As my Father says, "If you buy the Ponderosa, better be able to take care of the ranch".


Smile: Hung out with some guy and galpals last night playing Uno, Foosball, and in general just goofing off. I also saw one of my friends boobs...it happens. Our Uno games come with consequences.

Smile: Beautiful morning, and am looking forward to visiting our local Farmer's Market.

Frown: Lawn mower is out of gas. I hate going out without having taken a shower, but thanks to debit cards I can sneak through a gas station stealth style.

Wish I had a riding lawnmower with a ten gallon tank.

Smile: Finally got a call from my Sister after giving birth to my nephew.

Frown: 'Twas a pity call that lasted less than a minute. Also, my maternal Grandfather's name was Harry, and the baby is named Harrison Henry. When I asked "How's Harry Henry?" my Sister was quick to remind me "HIS NAME IS HARRISON".

Cool name, but "Harry" should be allowed, and I'll continue to use it as I'll continue to call Hallie "Hallelujah".

"Harrison". Boy is that kid lucky he didn't grow up ion the 90's.
