Out of the Blue

Well, I'm still on call, as it seems MrsBlue may be suffering from an actual bout of influenza. As can be imagined, this is pretty unpleasant, even as she is feeling a bit better today, so I am really hoping she doesn't give it to me - yuch.

I seem to have the lucky gene when it comes to stuff like that. Never lost luggage when flying, never had severe turbulence on a flight, never had any damage worth mentioning on things shipped from or to me, never broken a bone in my entire life...

If only I could get that luck thing to win the lotto for me.. Megamillions up to $196M right now....

i{ Well that and sequestering Mrs. Blue into hermetically sealed room, though, she might not be too keen on that.
OH OH!!! Get her a plastic bubble! She'd be like a giant hamster ball, and think how much fun Hudson and Gunnar would have with her!

Luckly with my apt, the screened in patio is attached to the front door, so if the screen door slams, Crash is at the front door barking awaiting to sniff whoever it is to death.

    Honestly with the way I've been getting packages from Fed-Ex (knock dump and run) and the condition of the packages I wouldn't trust them or UPS.
I had a cargo carrier, cargo pet railing, some cargo led lights, and a cargo bag for my Jeep delivered last week....it looked like they drove by at 40 mph and threw the crap out the back!!! Had huge holes, some road rash on the cargo carrier, and the box appeared like it had been wet more than 1x! wtf. At least everything was there....

They also do the knock and run....sucks. I have to watch my deliveries and head home to take it off of the porch.

Just wash your hands frequently and keep 'em outta your mouth eyes and nose. Well that and sequestering Mrs. Blue into hermetically sealed room, though, she might not be too keen on that.

Sides I still have my Xbox carrying backpack and I figure I 'should' be able to get it through security, but with the brick of a power supply, I'd hate to be the person working the x-ray machine.

    I took an Xbox up there once a few days after it's launch though security at the airport, guess it's time to make the same trip with the 360
Dude! Just FedEx it up there. Don't have to carry it and no hassle.

I hope both of your wifes feel better. My sister said she slept 'decently' through the night, which is a good sign, and again thanks to everyone for your thoughts/prayers.

Now what really sucks, is with Age of Conan coming out I get to play the Early Launch event, and then go spend weeks/months up north taking care of her and my 2 year old nephew while bro-in-law is out of time (except weekends) for Job training.

So if anyone has a mucho grande kick ass laptop they'd let me borrow for a month, I'd appreciate it

You and I, we may look the same.
But we are very far apart.
