It's Friday Randoms

So are we doing this today or not? Did anyone get hit by the storms last night or lose power? We didn't.

Re: It's Friday Randoms

  • All stoms went around us last night.

    I'm freaking tired today though.  It's been a long week and I'm exhausted but it was too tired in my house last night to sleep.  And I was too stubborn to adjust the AC.  And now I'm paying for it today. 

  • I gotta say, I'm really over this summer.  It's too *** hot.

    And the heat makes me really crabby, can you tell?  Stick out tongue  I think my husband may move out soon.  Not really... but I can't say I've been the happiest wifey this week.

    We got some lightning/thunder and rain.  Nothing exciting.

  • Whoo-hoo! Look at me, I am participating in The Randoms.  

     

    My brain is trying to escape from my skull.  I have been wrestling to keep it inside my head past 15 hours.  ugh.   I'm going to see the doc in a few mins.  I really hope he can give em something.  Otherwise I may put my head through a wall.

  • Mira how are you?  I feel like I haven't "seen" you in forever!  I think we need some updated pictures of your pup...Gracie, right?

    Ha... yeah. 

    I just bought a chocolate muffin.  I'm a little happier now.  Smile

    Also, nice to see you in the randoms (and elsewhere on the board), Mira!  Hope your head feels better soon.  That sounds awful.

  • I had a great thunder and lightening show last night.  It was great to fall asleep to.

    We did loose power for about 5 seconds.  Not long enough to be cool, but long enough to be annoying.  I forgot that if there is no power I have no internet because of the router.  This was the first time I've lost power in our house while I've been home.

  • Has anyone done paintball before?  I'm going tomorrow and am a little unsure of what to wear. I'm thinking old jeans and long sleeve t-shirt.

    I'd wear work gloves too, I played one time and got shot in the knuckle. That hurt more than getting shot anywhere else.

    Oh, man.  I went once for our work Christmas party, and I had on 2 pairs of sweatpants, a long sleeve tshirt and a sweatshirt and it STILL hurt being blasted with a paintball.  I'm sure it was the fact that we played in a non-heated warehouse, so the paintballs were a little harder, but man.  I had some wicked bruises. Still super fun though.  I'm sure with it being hotter than heck will make it hurt a lot less.  I second wearing gloves too.  I was fortunate enough that my brother plays on a regular basis and let me wear a pair of his paintballing gloves (they're special gloves with hard plastic on your knuckles, totally worth it).

  • We're playing at TC Paintball in Grandville.  Anyone know if that is indoors or outdoors?

  • Just popping in to say hello. I have to finish cleaning the house and should do it before it gets even hotter out. I think I will set the goal to clean for 1.5 hours and then go to Yesterdogs for my treat. Big Smile

    I just realized we only have one more week left in July. The summer is going too fast, hot or not.

    It's fun but it will hurt just to let you know. Yes jeans and long sleeve shirt are perfect

  • Don't ever let a Dr tell you a "needless" injection will hurt less, because it doesn't.  At all.

    I can't figure out how you would do an injection without a needle. Also, if something is breaking my skin to put something in me...it's gonna hurt!

    Yeah, I was wondering that too.  Was it intended to help your headache in any way?

    It works with high pressured air. . . or something like that.  

    Oh just googled it and found this:

    The injector works by harnessing the 

    power of shape-changing crystals. Instead of 

    piercing the skin with a sharp piece of metal, 

    tiny jets of liquid are pumped out at speeds 

    sufficient to penetrate it.

    I was so confusred but I think I get it now.  I thought when Mira said "needless" she meant "not needed".  And then I was thinking why get a shot if it wasn't needed.

    But then I realized she meant needleless.  Right?

    I'm sorry it was painfull Mira :(  I have never heard of needleless technology until today though.  Learn something new...
