*big hug* No standing alone across the room!

But not too much over, I hope ;-)

*hugs Endre while his hands are in his pockets, unable to stop the rib cracking hug* :-)

How did you escape from those Steam girls? Or have you just taken them home to your basement to live with the Mormon nurses? :-)

XD Well that actually happens to me all the time. :D

BTW, we are in ANOTHER white out here so easy for the snow request. :P This last few days probably puts us around 220 inches.

Hahaha!
Morning, Endre. *polite nod from a safe distance*

And good day to Stilton and tinyE as well :-)

'Steam Girls' sounds a bit old fashioned. Shouldn't they be Cyber Girls now? We still have the occasional steam train running down here. An amazing sight seeing one chugging along with that gloriously polluted cloud of crap rising skyward and the rattle of tons of iron working in an almost organic way. Those things really had personality.

What escape? They have internet here. ;)

Hi Agent. Hope everything's good there. I fell out of bed just after midday and I've almost finished my first coffee. I feel a bit like I'm on holiday - I shouldn't have stayed away so long ;-)

Well how is our Steam POW doing today? :-)

Did you manage to get a restful nights sleep?

With all these wild young...........................
yes :(

Fun part is I have to pickup produce and bread for work this morning.
-14C and 40mph winds, brrrrr.

No worries, I keep extras around for such occasions.

Just make sure someone doesn't make use of your helmet in a desperate moment...;)
That's good of them. It wasn't your fault that the mail people botched the delivery, after all.

You make sure to wrap up warm, we wouldn't want you turning into an icicle while picking up bread and provisions for those long winter nights with the nurses. :-)

I wouldn't be the first time...

Maybe so, but I'd feel badly doing that myself.

Besides, I'd rather save the vomit for good things, like someone gushing about the shiny rock they were given, someone who doesn't notice my rolling eyes and rapidly vanishing patience.

The trick is the timing.

You know you're going to vomit, you've got that queasiness going on and the person still won't take the hint and shut up, so what you have to do is create a proper opening.

When they finally stop to take a breath, you have to go with something subtle, but effective.
Something along the lines of, "Good thing you got the jewelry, it's probably going to be all you get, given the combo of you having the inherent sex appeal of a decaying rhino corpse and the fact that your significant other just spent the afternoon giving your sister asshole herpes."

When their jaw starts to drop? THAT'S when you throw up. Make sure to arc properly, and it'll go right in their mouth.

Like I said. Timing. ;)

And that appetizing note:
I'm off to work, see ya'll later. ;)
