Howdy Ho!
Jelly Bean Posted May 14, 2000
I actually did read one of those once. I can't recall a whole lot about it. (maybe all those drugs in the sixties did do more damage than I thought) Something about a turtle I believe. Still, when I did acquire a turtle of my own he still ended up being named Gammera. Lately, all I've been able to keep interested in the the Wheel of Time novels by Robert Jordan. A lot of fantasy, but a rather gripping tale nonetheless.
Howdy Ho!

Oh, whoops! Sorry, sorry, sorry!
*Blushes*
I hope you're not deeply offended. Of course I wasn't being serious. There's nothing I like better than pesky sales assistants. Given the choice between a sales assistant and, oh, gosh, anything, I'd always choose the sales assistant. Some of my best friends are sales assistants. Sales assistants are higher forms of life - I'm just a lowly, miserable, pathetic student....
Is that apology humble and grovelling enough?
So what type of sales do you assist?
Howdy Ho!
TIMELORD Posted May 14, 2000

Actually, I sell plants for a large company here in FL. You know, landscaping and other reasons to get outside and enjoy the sun. It can be quite fun; standing outside and working on my tan while surrounded by beautiful flowers.
Howdy Ho!

As in Greebo's Chesire Grin Inn? I've had a visit there. I haven't had much time to stay take in all the local color, but I plan to spend some time there drinking and visiting with the residents.
Howdy Ho!
Possum Posted May 15, 2000
Well, that sounds really nice. I guess there's not very many opportunities to be pesky though, selling plants. Or are there?
Howdy Ho!
Jelly Bean Posted May 15, 2000
I'm not a terribly pesky person. I usually have too many things to do rather than harass the customers. How about you? Are you truly a night creature? Many of my friends are. It is just about impossible to get them to venture out in the daylight.
Howdy Ho!
TIMELORD Posted May 17, 2000
I work nights so i have no chioce but to be a night person but even when i didn't work i was up until 3am most nights.
Now i just sleep at strange times with the arm hurting i could not get more than 3 hours at first some times i would knock it in my sleep and wake up im almost back to 6 hours at a time now but i feel i need a good sleep to catch up.
You are lucky to live by the sea... oh i do like to be beside the seaside ...oh no now that tunes going round in my head all night.
I live about as far away from the sea as you can get in england about 70 miles each way.
Howdy Ho!
Possum Posted May 17, 2000
I certainly am - I wouldn't be much of a patron saint otherwise, now, would I?
Although I venture out in the daylight quite a lot. Life's too short to spend asleep, isn't it?
Howdy Ho!
TIMELORD Posted May 18, 2000
I thought i told you sorry i broke it playing football with my nephew.
Howdy Ho!

The beach is great! I finally got around to seeing it again. I've been real busy at work. We opened up a new store and I've been getting a great deal of overtime. Now the grand opening is done with so I can get back to my regular schedule of goofing off at the beach and on the computer. How's the arm?
Howdy Ho!
TIMELORD Posted Jun 8, 2000
The arm is great now it still hurts when i try to do to much but the doctor does not want to see me again(which i am very glad about he only asked me to move it up and down and i had to wait 3 hours to see him).
Howdy Ho!
Jelly Bean Posted Jun 8, 2000
No more Doctor visits, no more pain pills, that is just too bad. Maybe you can break something else. ;-}
Howdy Ho!
TIMELORD Posted Jun 8, 2000
Maybe what part of YOUR body would you like be to break.
I never take pain killers i don't like them they wanted to give me a injection when i did it but i said no.
A bit strange perhaps but thats me summed up in a few words.
