It's been a sucky day. 1) I decided to sit in the sun for a bit this morning. Got all situated, tunes going, iced green tea within reach, book in hand. Then I realize, there's a lot of flies around. No wait - they aren't flies. They are termites. Swarming/hatching. Right in front of my towel. (Might I add, not 12 inches from a termite bait station!) So I get up, move to the deck. Watching the critters fly off to hopefully chew on some of my neighbor's homes instead of my own. 2) It's a beautiful day, but I had to go in to shower for my 1:30 dr's appt. I make the 30 min. drive downtown. Find parking. Walk to the appt. The nurse looks rather surprised. Advises me that my appt was at 10:30, not 1:30. And they are charging me for a 'missed appt". I pull out the appt card that THEY filled out - says "1:30". She said "OPPS!" Of course, it was a waste of time, $3 parking, gas, and missed an extra 2 hours of sunning. 3) I'm driving home and "Ned" calls. He's making small talk. His "girlfriend" commented on my other blog last week again (grrrrr). I haven't acknowledged her comments at all. He keeps asking me "what else" I've "been up to". (I'm wondering if he's asking in 'guyspeak' if I'm dating anyone?) 4) I'm walking in my house as I'm talking to him and I see about 15 of those termite swarmy things on the floor. I smoosh them. I'm not sure if they are coming in from outside or I have another problem inside. I tell "Ned" that I have to go and he tells me to call him back this afternoon. (I think not.) I call Airborne instead and wake his ass up. He's cranky and ornery when he hasn't had enough sleep... I have a tenative date Friday night with the dude I went to Tom Jones. His ex-gf is coming into town this weekend to get all of her stuff out. She's been gone for 6 months. She was shagging his best friend and flaunting the relationship all over the place. (Why has it taken her so long to get her stuff out?) She now lives in S.C. (I think?) I called someone else and suggested we do lunch tomorrow. I have to clear the air with him. I'm going to be blunt. Gotten a lot of mixed signals with him. It should be interesting... That's it on my end. |

For clarification, you told me that you turn your phone off when you're sleeping. And you told me it was ok to call after 1. (You didn't indicate ET or CT zone)
And how was I to know that you were meeting with some grand pooh-bah AFTER your shift to discuss whether your new uniform with red fringe and lace accents would be stylish enough?
I can't help you with the tall blonde Amazon chicks. (I wasn't aware Amazon.com was selling blondes now)
You were ornery. Cantankerous. I can only imagine what your breath was like. (hehe)

And for the record, you woke my ass up TWICE with very late-night calls. So I STILL owe you one more call - then we're even.

I thought those bait stations were just filled with balsa wood and they check them every now and then. If there is evidence of termites then they put the poison bait in them. ???

Me and Airborne? LOL
You should hear our phone conversations -- I laugh so hard sometimes I swear I'm gonna pee in my pants.

Yes, but they have had the stations poison baited for a while - which is apparently working REALLY well.

My parents had their house done with the OLD way of drilling and flusing the foundation with poison. A few years after that was done there was a termite exodus like yours where they were living near the house, never got to it and then they flew away. Insects are strange.

Definitely "ADVANCED AGE"... You're approaching geezer status, aren't you? (kidding!!!)
I hear old folks need LOTS of sleep, so I'm very very sorry for interrupting your snooze. But if I was interrupting it, why didn't you answer it immediately and not wait 3 hours to call me back?

An officer survival class would include avoiding run-ins with the likes of you. And a lot of things you read about that stupid people do and end up dead.

Several years ago, I had just gotten home from day surgery - and the downstairs was FULL of swarming termites coming out of my laundry room. I was supposed to stay in bed, but I spent a few hours vacuuming those suckers up.

And you're too busy and too much in demand to schedule a week away with me stud...

You've been there like 6 weeks and you are talking about taking vacation?
