What's on your agenda for today?

I am imbibing a couple of Bloody Marys (sequentially) at the moment, and having some blue cheese with fresh ciabatta, and feeling mellow after a walk in the sun around the city's parks.

Looking forward to seeing the videos Annie!!

Hubby took the video his phone so I have to figure out how to get it to use on here. It's on FB.
 
Annie, this Scottish pub stuff sounds great. I wish we had the pub culture here. We have a wine bar, but that is not my scene. In this town, only the poseurs frequent it. Parvenus bring out the mischief in me!

They are some very cool pubs all over the UK, not just Scotland. There's one near us that has parts of the building from the 15th century, the rest is early 17th century.
 
Sounds awesome Annie. When I was in the UK when I was young, I did the pub crawl thing. Loved those beautiful British men. Met a tall Scot who resembled a Viking, he showed me around London, what fun. Duncan was his name.
 
Gonna be a hot one today at 104 F, so other than getting a pedicure shortly I plan to just chill out and play on my new laptop until dinner time and then go for a swim before dinner. I'll watch Netflix tonight and a couple more episodes of The walking Dead. Despite it being a really weird show, I am hooked and will continue watching.

Josiah - Is your wife taking any of the anti-osteoporosis meds? I just started taking one since I found out I shrank an inch over the last year. I also take Vitamin D3 in a big dose each day. I hope very much that your wife has experienced no fractures.

She took bisphosphonates for five years until I persuaded her to stop. They did nothing for her. I had her supplementing with magnesium, D3, and strontium.
 
Well, I don't see the point of getting sloshed if I don't have any bartenders around to flirt with. I actually did that once, it was so out of my comfort zone but after two of the worst tasting drinks on the planet (long Island Iced Ts,) I was loads of flirtatious fun, he started it though, but, I brought it home, not him, the flirting. And very head sick a few hours later after adding a couple of other drinks on top of that. Never a, well maybe. Kind of felt good to be that bad.

Anyway, no fun to just sit here at home an get tipsy by myself.
 
I agree April, I'm not going to drink by myself and don't. It is a great inhibition lowerer though for me. Maybe too much, so best I stay away.
 
I actually could use a drink, I've had the runnaround trying to chase down a package which was supposedly delivered.

Now this would be quite a large box. mostly paper goods, but a few other items included.

Checked tracking # listed as delivered, so I called store, they said it was listed as delivered on their end, said they would try to deliver again, I said I would check with delivery people

Called FedEx,
them: Yes Ma'am it was delivered
me:Uh, no it wasn't that's why I'm calling
them: Ma'am let me check again. Um ma'am, I see we handed it off to your local postal company you might want to check with them.

me after disconnecting :what:

I then call USPS

them: Ma'am package was delivered, do you have a lock box in the complex, you might want to check for a key in you box

me: Miss, the package that was to be delivered wouldn't have fit in a drop box.

Them: well you might want to check anyway, but, let me check with the worker
Them: Um ma'am, I just checked, it appears the worker didn't want to leave such a large package at the door, so if you want to come pick it up or we can arrange to deliver it again.

me: Deliver again this time knock.

Of course they never even came upstairs in the first place, these asinine people :what:

So, they marked packages delivered when they aren't delivered, WTHay.
 
Yep, it has happened to me. They need a better system. Not they knock and leave the package, what if you are away?

Now when I know I'm going to my daughters or something, if I order something I'll have it delivered there.

Its a pain!

It happened a long time ago, that incident and I swore off ever getting intoxicated again, but, it was fun being that kind of flirty, my girlfriend was staring at my as if I had three eyes. Looking around the club, it felt at times at if I had four eyes. LOL! It is a fond memory I must say, except for the horrid headache after.

They never came to my door, I can hear any commotion, I was up very early this morning, any comings and goings after 7am, I would have heard, we have men working to ready an apt on the same floor and I asked if they saw anyone stop by and they said no. believe me, I would have heard the knock, I've been anticipating the arrival of the package. They do deliver to wrong neighbors ever so often, so, I thought maybe that was at issue when I saw they marked delivered, but, normally they would leave a note in your box telling you to come pick it up, they didn't even do that. The woman on the phone didn't even apologize, the hussy, what's worse, she didn't give me enough time to yell obscenities at her before she hung up either. Where's my blood monitor. :mad: :eek:nthego: :D
 
They probably do the same with pkgs that they do with mail they don't want to deliver, well packages they might keep but I've read and it has happened in our town that mail was just being thrown away because the mail delivery guy didn't feel like doing his route.

our pkgs just get left on the front porch...anyone can take it, I'm surprised nobody has in my neighborhood. Good way to do your Christmas shopping around the holidays....go pick up packages from people s homes.
