What Made you Smile/What Ticked you off Today?

[MrPopo]

Smile: Adapted my dad's avgolemono recipe for the pressure cooker and it turned out really good. I still need to play with the proportions of some of the ingredients, but overall I'm very happy with the result, plus knocking off a few hours from the original recipe.

Frown: So full. And it was only one bowl. I really need to figure out how to not snack my way to a second meal while cooking.

Smile: Leftovers to last me through the weekend.

It's brutally cold - but i'm half tempted to take a "new" snow angle pic. We'll see if the missus is up to it.

Speaking as a lifelong Texan, I am absolutely terrified. I am horrified both by the frozen world from which you hail and that I co-exist in a world where frozen men like you roam the tundra.

We barbarians of the south plains fear the devil ice from the sky.

The end of work was crazy. We have a goal everyday to pack 1200 cases by 11. So by the end we were close, i got done vacuuming the room and put on new gloves when i heard our lead say 8 more cases. So i hurry to the station at the end of the line and start wrapping bottles.

So it’s getting close to 11 and were getting closer to 1200. In the last few minutes the lead is yelling (not being a dick) hurry!!! I’m hurrying wrapping bottles running over to the packing window and throwing it through, then run back the my station and do the same thing. Right as it hit 11 o’clock we hit 1200 and three seconds later the counter reset.

Everyone was cheering at the end. As a joke i say “alright guys see ya later!” i walk out the door and come back in, everyone laughed. We still had half an hour till we were off. It was a cool way to end the day.

My girlfriend is driving me up the wall with the kids argument.

One side of my family has a history of mental illness. My grandfather, father, and myself all have it, and it makes life quite hard. Not something you want to pass on. My temper is very short and explosive. I'm very selfish with my time, I have no desire to devote 18 years to a child. I also hate children and screaming infants in general. Dogs are my top priority and what I want to dedicate my life to, not a child. I don't sound like a very good candidate for having children, do I?

I made it abundantly clear to her when we got together that I never want kids, and she acted like she was fine with it. That's mainly what bothers me so much when she brings it up and starts fighting over it two years later. When I pull out the "then you are with the wrong guy if you expect all these things" card, well, you can just imagine how that goes.

If she happened to get pregnant, I would not walk away or anything, but I do not want kids. I don't know, this has been very bothersome for the past few months and I just felt like venting.

^^ that isn't going to end well. Good luck.

you could get a vasectomy and the discussion would end.

[mjmjr25]

not necessarily.

When I said that I wanted to have kids, and you said you wanted me to have a vasectomy, what did I do? And then, when you said that you might want to have kids, and I wasn't so sure, who had the vasectomy reversed? And then when you said you definitely didn't want to have kids? Who had it reversed back? Snip, snap! Snip, snap! Snip, snap! I did! You have no idea the physical toll that three vasectomies have on a person!
