I almost went to Bubba Gump's last week, but Forrest was charging far more for his shrimp than I anticipated.

Yep, with The Simpsons. The whole ride, pre-ride video and all, is included on the recent BTTF DVD release.

Yikes.

She's fast enough

That sucked.

I haven't been to Universal Studios (in CA) in about 12 years. I'd like to go back. I'm sure it'll be far less terrifying now that I'm a bit older.

Yikes.

The big blue box set that all three movies came in? I own that, I just never got around to the special features. Excellent.

Well, it wasn't like an arm and a leg or anything, just more than I anticipated, and we were going to Joe's Crab Shack the next night anyways, and it seemed silly to pay that much for seafood two days in a row is all.

No, the individual releases.

Damn. Oh well. If I want it that badly, I'll just buy it again. The box set is technically mom's anyways.

Just myself, the boy, 2 droids and NO questions asked!

phanan · 08-13-2009, 10:15 AM

That's the real trick, huh?

u2popmofo · 08-13-2009, 10:34 AM

I'm at home and mulling over calling in sick. I don't necessarily feel uber-sick, I just feel exhausted, weak, and burned out. What say you, cock force? Is today a PTO day?

Also, as of last night, Chicago flight and accommodations are taken care of.

elevated_u2_fan · 08-13-2009, 10:35 AM

every day is a PTO day

could this have anything to do with your new PS3?

BoMac · 08-13-2009, 10:36 AM

I say no, you lazy-assed scum.

Probably, I stayed up way too late with Jive Turkey the other night.

Reggo · 08-13-2009, 10:42 AM

Funny you say this. I've been pondering over doing this myself over the last couple of weeks.

I have to take 12 more days off before the end of the year or else I lose them.

I would have supported you in this sort of endeavor, but you had to hurt me with your words! I've never felt more betrayed and overwhelmed by sadness.

that's a heavy burden you carry...

u2popmofo · 08-13-2009, 10:46 AM

I have like 15 or 16 days to use still.

elevated_u2_fan · 08-13-2009, 10:47 AM

It is.

Thankfully, I get to carry 20 into the following year.

u2popmofo · 08-13-2009, 10:52 AM

Sick day taken. Too bad I've been awake mulling it over so long that I'm not sure if I'm tired enough to fall back asleep now. Where there's a will, there's a way.
