TSCLT 12.0: The pantheon hates a pussy 2.0

[Wat_Tyler]

Happy Sunday!!! Slept okay. Last day off, but it's been restful and productive. Wat has a shooping run, and he has begun the shooping list. Got an Amazon delivery last night. The box is on the floor and has a cat in it from time to time.


And there's coffee.


Stay centered by accepting whatever you are doing. This is the ultimate.

~ Chuang-tzu


Understanding and Love are not two separate things, but just one. To develop understanding, you have to practice looking at all living beings with the eyes of compassion. When you understand, you cannot help but love. And when you love, you naturally act in a way that can relieve the suffering of people.

~ Thich Nhat Hahn

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Fixin'ta head out to the store.


Wonder if I forget the list . . . .

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Remembered the list. Got chili fixin's and put it together. It's crockin'.

Bad Days​

By: Tom Waits​

This is about all the bad days
in the world.

I used to have some little bad days,
and I kept them in a little box.
And one day, I threw them out
into the yard.

"Oh, it's just a couple little
innocent bad days."

Well, we had a big rain. I don't know
what it was growing in but I
think we used to put eggshells
out there and coffee
grounds, too.

Don't plant your bad days.
They grow into weeks.
The weeks grow into months.
Before you know it you got
yourself a bad year.

Take it from me.

Choke those little bad days.
Choke 'em down to nothin'.
They're your days.
Choke 'em!

We're supposed to get white shit today. And it's supposed to be done by dinner time. But, it's 33°F and it could just come as rain.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

We got the drizzles today. Talked for a bit to a friend who is driving home from points northeast. He's being careful. His cat is asleep in her crate.

Thank you very much for the kind wishes to your poor benighted neighbors to the south. Here we live in squalor and spend all our hard-earned money on guns-n-ammo so we can shoot one another to death and cause each other nothing but grief and suff'rin'. Our ethical challenges know no bounds. But hey, we're grateful as fuck for all of it. Thank you, Allah, for the chaos. It's what we wanted all along . . . .

Don't let the news fool you, the same crap is happening everywhere only in other parts of the world people have to get more creative like driving vans over people or throwing them in rivers. People are people everywhere, it doesn't matter the culture, religions, or politics, there are always some at both extremes with most trying to get by in the middle.

Oh, people suck??? Who knew????


We knew.


One more reason that I like being better . . . prepared . . . that the rest of them.

 

[Inflation999]

LOL, yes people suck and tired people should think a bit more before typing but it's that time of year so you get what you get.

I hired 8 temps in September, as of this afternoon we are down to one with two more weeks to go before any hope of a slowdown. The number crunching is still a bit away but we're having a good year work wise, sleep and homelife, well that's currently on the back burner.

 

[thør]

You're able to find temps?

 

[Wat_Tyler]

I have a good temp right now. First one maybe ever.

Happy Monday!!! It's that kind of dubious day that happens after a few days off. Fortunately, this job sucks less than many, so that makes it easier. This is a trying time, so that makes it challenging. At the end, it always boils down to a series of tasks to do, so the only challenges are being sure to get them in the proper order and to get them done.


No matter, as coffee greases the skids . . . .

 

[JohnnySavage]

Fresh snow on the ground here at Savage Mountain. Caused me to put a bit of the Irish in my coffee.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Eye-tal-yuns doing Irish stuff is a source of confusion around here.


We have whining demolition contractors. What are we going to do with the residents' stuff? What did Wat tell you last week? Have we have an honest-to-Allah business day since Wat told you? Does Wat have a con'frunse call here in abit to sort some of this shit out?


Can you shut the fuck up???

 

[thør]

Slippery Monday. The premium winter tires with studs are flat worth the money, today.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

I reckon so. It's important the drive safely on slippery roads.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Home. Got the city to agree that we can have 'lectricity. Now it's merely a matter of when the utility will get there.


Grazing in, what with all the cooking lately.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Happy Tuesday!!! Sleep was meh. It's a bit chillier this morning. The manager lady is coming in today, so she'll be sharing office space in the tincan. There's heat, electricity and internet. She'll be fine.


Coffee is strong this morning.


I do not believe in a fate that falls on men however they act; but I do believe in a fate that falls on them unless they act.

 

[JohnnySavage]

More snow over night. Hope it stays chilly through tomorrow. I haveta hook up the trailer and go pick up some carpet at Blowes. It'd suck to get it all road spray'ie.

 

[JohnnySavage]

On the positive side, I can drive up to The Land later today and look for poacher tracks.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Take the Henry an kill 'em if you see 'em. The poachers, not the tracks.


Another exciting day of wondering if-n-when the inshornce adjustor will ever arrive.


Feckink000ntz!!!

Do you collect 'em?
