DDC XXXIV: The Original Home Of The DISDads!!!

[Captain_Oblivious]

Got to work this morning and... forgot I was working 12 hours today. I was feeling "ugh" about coming in already so it's icing on the cake.
Oh well. August will be lots better.

As long as you have something to look forward to!

On a completely unrelated note, I need some ideas to make a quick buck. I will accept all ideas, even dubiously legal ones. I can give a good price on a low milage liver. Does anyone have tips on card counting?

The Kid turns 18 on Christmas and of course she wants to spend it at Disney. Since her baby is becoming an adult, my wife wants to go all out, giving The Kid whatever she wants, and even some things she doesn't know she wants. The preliminary list of restaurants they want to eat at include Steakhouse71, O'hana, Teppen Edo, Top of The World Lounge, and basically every other table service on property. The list of souvenirs is long and there has been discussion of flying business or first class. I try to be the voice of reason, but as the only male in the family, my vote counts for approximately .0000000001%

Good news! We're taking you on your dream trip to Disney World! Bad news: your new parents will take possession of you there, once the check clears.

Yes! Take a pack of cards and flip the top card over. That's 1. Keep flipping the cards and counting up: 2, 3, 4, etc. When you reach the end, if you are at 52, you did it right. If you're at 54, you forgot to take out the jokers or you can't count cards.

(slow clap) Brilliant!

So... has anyone else noticed that now that the DIS has switched to the new servers, the DIS is down far more frequently?

August... August...

(slow clap) Brilliant!

Come to me for more time-wasting ideas!

 

[declansdad]

Happy Thursday all, who's thirsty?

Couldn't respond to this yesterday, as the boards were down.

Morning, folks. Happy Friday. Tomorrow is Saturday and Sunday. Not sure what I'm doing on my weekend. Probably trying to catch up on chores before going back to work, Monday morning, in two days.

Happy Thursday all, who's thirsty?

I don't know. Can you describe her?

Yes and #twss

They're working on it. And there is a work-around that looks complicated and I won't be doing, on page 8.

Morning all, doing my weekly check in as part of my probation agreement with the Chief. We all well in here? Apart from Jaqsdad who sounds like he's about to go on the game to pay for a Disney trip, obviously.

Luckily you got in while the boards were up.

Morning, folks.
Busy day today with stuff to do and then the neighbour's kid is coming over to use our pool around noon. Only hoping the neighbour's kid's parent comes too as I don't want to babysit for an hour or two.

Haven't seen it go down for a bit now, so hopefully that DNS problem is fixed.

We would beseech to humbly submit, your honour......


Thats what she said.

At least someone is paying attention!

Morning, Fellas! Hope all are well. Finally made it to the end of the week without anymore problems. However, at another office they had to call the police because some old man got belligerent, started swinging his cane around and refused to leave. He wasn't arrested, but escorted out by the police and banned from the practice. There's a reason we have a zero tolerance policy and he's it.

TTFN

Good for you. Sounds like you handled it just right.

I do try, though my buttons.

Morning, gents.

I hope you at least had a good shift.

I pop in to check on to check in the shenanigans going on around here and I had to double check my calendar to see what day it actually is. Pkondz is on Tuesday (or it is Thursday?) but with the hours he is putting in, it might be next Friday already. Darcy is posting Hump Day at 8:22 on Tuesday night, though he is so far east of me, it could be Wednesday already. Or maybe he found pkondz's crack .

Leave it to @pkondz and @declansdad to confuse everyone.

I'm really trying to be good here, but there's a line from the musical/movie(?) The Producers, "There's a lot of little old ladies out there."

You get that much say? How'd you manage that?

Morning, gents.
It is morning, isn't it?

Oh wise one, please tell us how you rate such high influence with SWMBO?

Morning, folks.

You're going to have the neighbor's kids over to use your pool? Good luck.

Whoa.

I hope you at least had a good shift.

Long.
My one day off was super busy and now I’m even more tired

You're going to have the neighbor's kids over to use your pool? Good luck.

That’s okay. The kid’s mom came over too so I didn’t have to babysit.

 

[declansdad]

Morning all.

Have a good Saturday. Should be my last wearing the orange apron.

 

[pkondz]

Morning, folks.
Happy Monday part I.

Morning all.

Have a good Saturday. Should be my last wearing the orange apron.

So you're going to be slipping into something more comfortable?

 

[declansdad]

Morning, folks.
Happy Monday part I.


So you're going to be slipping into something more comfortable?

Yup, back into my volleyball gear.

 

[pkondz]

Morning, boys.

Monday part II is almost over; just another 45 minutes to go. Then Tuesday starts in just under 9 hours (8 hours after Monday part II ends). Or is that Monday part III?

 

[CapeCodTenor]

Morning, everyone!

Hope everyone has a good Sunday, except @pkondz, since he's on Monday. In that case, @pkondz, have a good Monday, part 1.

Whoa.

Right? That was quite the tantrum he threw.

Long.
My one day off was super busy and now I’m even more tired

Isn't that always the case? The day off can be busier than work. I mean, it's almost like you go to work to relax....well, sometimes.

That’s okay. The kid’s mom came over too so I didn’t have to babysit.

Oh ok, that's good.

Morning all.

Have a good Saturday. Should be my last wearing the orange apron.

Congrats!

Morning, folks.
Happy Monday part I.

So you're going to be slipping into something more comfortable?

And something where the color suits him better.

Morning, boys.

Monday part II is almost over; just another 45 minutes to go. Then Tuesday starts in just under 9 hours (8 hours after Monday part II ends). Or is that Monday part III?

 

[declansdad]

Happy Sunday all.

Just enjoying a coffee while watching the Open. Just hydrating for today's soccer game.

Have a good one all.

 

[pkondz]

In that case, @pkondz, have a good Monday, part 1.

That was yesterday. Part II was last night/this morning. I guess Tuesday is this afternoon/evening.
This is not easy.

Isn't that always the case? The day off can be busier than work. I mean, it's almost like you go to work to relax....well, sometimes.

Oh, Lord, yes.
I was so sore after working almost non-stop around the house that it kept me up most of the night. Should have taken some ibuprofen or something. Oh well.
