No idea if we had any trick or treaters because we took the kids to a Halloween party instead. Lots of fun costumes, most of the adults too.

STR posted:(speaking of, she doesn't like me using condoms, and I know drat well my pull out game isn't that great, so it's been Russian Roulette). You ever sir there watching someone set their life on fire thinking they know exactly what they're doing so you just watch because they wouldn't do it publicly if they didn't want you to be at least entertained? The worst parts of my life right now seen to be "work is as much fun as drilling a hole in my balls with a forstner bit" and the ongoing discussion of "I wish you wouldn't eat in bed", so I'm quite happy to outsource my drama.

DSLR? What button is that on my phone? My last real camera was a 35mm Olympus, I can't even remember the model. I rarely took the 50mm lens off and had a whole ruck of great pictures of my friends, good times.

I keep browsing old alfa wheels on eBay, they go for nothing (nobody wants 13" & 14" wheels) and they're such a frivolous unnecessary luxury but the panda would look with some of these orange powder coated:

angryrobots posted:My 5yo just ran up behind me sitting on the couch, wrapped her arms around my neck and told me she loved me. nice. We made the decision to reduce the height of my son's bed today, he occasionally wakes up disoriented due to low cortisol and he's got a raised cabin bed so there's a not-insignificant risk of him falling out and really hurting himself. Despite having discussed this with him the reality of getting the saw out brought him to tears and it took my wife over an hour to calm him down. When I'd done he liked it though and we discussed changes to make in the future, but it looks like my standard "talk about it for ages then get a sudden rush of blood to the head and actually do it" DIY style isn't compatible with him, emotionally.

Slept like poo poo sitting up on the sofa because lying down causes horrible coughing fits. Also woke my wife up to tell her she has to take the dog to the vet because what she said was a scab from a scratch looks awfully like the tip of his tail is dead to me. It's not bothering him but if it's bad he needs it dealt with before it gets infected.

Update, dog isn't a rattlesnake, it's just a scab. £30 for a checkup isn't extortionate either, clean bill of health at 9 for an inbred ratter was nice also.

One house we ended up not getting the seller was fighting against paying for indemnity insurance Vs some alterations that had been done previously. After stalling for weeks he had his estate agent get in touch demanding an additional £8k (on a £50k house) because the market was getting higher. Note similar houses were maybe asking +£1k at most. We told him to go pound sand and bought a better house elsewhere. That insurance was about £40.

InitialDave posted:A what?. We were buying a terrace in Stoke. £50k is excessive in my mind. Eventually bought a £70k house somewhere slightly nicer. It's always funny telling your friends in Brighton about buying a house for that money though, it wouldn't buy a parking space down there.

MomJeans420 posted:I wish there was One Weird Trick (TM) or product I could purchase to instantly make organizing my garage easy. I'm going to take time off of work between xmas and new years to get it cleaned up, but it's one of those things where I have so much poo poo in there I really need to pull lots of things out to make room to organize it properly (moved from a place with a huge garage to a place with a small garage). I have some built in cabinets right now, but I think what I really need are more storage units to hold random items. I have some plastic dresser things which I hate because they don't open and close well when you have items in them. I guess multiple harbor freight tool carts would help, but it's kind of a pricey solution. The one weird trick is that you could probably chuck 3/4 of the contents of the average persons garage and they'd never miss it.
