How's your day? April 2016

A pound a week? Wow, I thought I had a coffee "issue."

 

So much fun!! Thanks for sharing.

 

That's just one 10 cup pot a day, I generally fill up a 20 oz Yeti tumbler to take to work and sip over about three hours. My wife and daughter have some in the mornings also, although they ruin it by adding a ton of hazelnut creamer.

 

Tell me, what is a Whirly-pop?

That's not much Erik, I drink coffee about 6 times a year. Surprisingly when I do drink coffee I prefer it black.

 

I'm having tachycardia just reading that.

 

340 miles, out to Leakey & back. Couldn't have bought a better day with a bag of quarters & a case of gin.

 

Not a great day... I finally went down into the crawlspace to check on the strange smells in the back part of the house. It turns out that a T-connection blew out on the main drain line and I have a puddle of water (and sewage) under the family room and master bedroom.

 

At least with a crawlspace, the repair will be a little easier and probably not too expensive. It's still huge inconvenience though.

 

been there, done that. Not one of my favourite passtimes! Withing you all the best!

 

The actually repair looks pretty straight forward- replace a T-connector in a run of PVC pipe.

The crawl space has a sand floor and I don't know if that's a good thing or not in this case. (Images of a visit by the EPA.)

 

Hopefully, this will be funny to more than myself and @macaronus :

Today's Dutch lesson involved clothing and the verb dragen (to wear). I thought to myself, well that will be easy to remember, "He wears drag." And you can't make this up... my first sentence to translate was:

De jongen draagt een rok.
(the boy wears a skirt.)

Someone at duolingo clearly has a twisted sense of humor.

 

I think you may just not understand Dutch fashion.

 

That is a possibility too.

 

Hey Rich has Shakira been entertaining the Penguinator troops lately..

 

I have worn some of SWMBO's dresses and skirts.


When shopping.


In a bag. (Rich, I mean the dresses and skirts were in a bag. Not me.)


BTW, a 'rok' may also mean: 'tails', as in: top hat, white tie and tails.

The secret is out!

But at least I wear a tie with it. Always the gentleman!

 

eye bleach!

 

It was incredibly tough to get her booked... something about a space heater in her rider. But, we eventually pulled it off.

 

Happy World Penguin Day, folks! You know who you are.
