I saw your post earlier, just haven't responded to it yet. May or may not tonight, but will by tomorrow. Been busy playing with the new 4 wheeler/buggy the past few days

Well, after 2 gallons of overflow from the skimmer last night, this is what it pulled running all day. I think it's back to normal.

Got some more glue and put some sticks on the rocks. Button scoly, acans and zoas too.

FTS, blue blue blue. I need a filter lens.

Ok, corals...

I had to move the duncan away from the frogspawn. It was losing the battle. I moved it on top of the other duncan, they will get along fine, and I put the bicolor frogspawn in its place. That regular frogspawn has really gotten big.

Yuppie beer and pipe for the night. ;Woot

Hahaha, no house coat. I quit smoking cigarettes 3 years ago this past July. Told myself by my 30th birthday (August 4th) I was quitting. Ended up running put of my last pack a week early and didn't buy another. It's a guilty pleasure I enjoy a few nights a week at most.

@Scurvy yes...I can picture satin PJs with a turtle in silver thread on the pocket. Don't worry Robin, we'll get her a bunny outfit.

Congrats, I haven’t been able to shake the habit. Have tried many a times and will get 3 or 4 months here and there but stress, anxiety or rage always pulls me back in.

i asked the dr. this last time about something to help me quit dipping so he subscribed me a small dose of wellbutrin to help suppress the cravings. Only 2 days in so far, minor differences but nothing major yet.

I bought 8 rolls earlier this week and determined it would be my last 8 rolls. So I'm shooting for by the end of this year.

I was starting to get really bad heartburn after every cigarette... so I had some help there but I quit cold turkey. I've had tobacco pipes for a while, longer than I've quit cigarettes, but I didn't touch them until I knew I was over cigarettes. Even now, the pipe isn't something I have to have.

I had a lung issue a couple of years back that required surgery. That got me off them for a good 6 months but the Dr. eventuallt slipped and told me my issue had no relation to my smoking and would have happened regardless. Worst thing he could have said to me as I was then able to rationalize starting again.

Right before lights off. I found my orange glasses. I still need to get one of those lenses for the phone tho.

That green slimmer is awesome! Guess who got a preferred customer coupon in the mail?...hmm.

About the coffee beer...I did not find any yesterday. I was recommended to try something in a blue can too. Something with higher alcohol. They laughed and said for me it might be better to have no plans when I try it. Lol

It does stand out. The orange glasses turned it a bit yellower than it really is.

Preferred customer? I'm guessing you, but where?

Oh, the girlfriend scored us several free passes to Riverbanks Zoo. She used to work there a few years ago and evidently still has a few hook ups. They have a really nice aquarium with a huge tank.

Katrina71 · Nov 9, 2018

Yeah. Making cookies apparently makes me preferred.

LFS. They actually do call or text when they get a little guy.

I was at a local brewery, River Rat over in Columbia, a few years back and wanted to try a few of their beers. I got one that was classified as a barley wine and tipped the scales at 12% ABV. They looked at me and were like "you know this is a strong beer, blah blah blah..." they just didn't understand what kind of professional they were dealing with. Yuppie city folk I tell ya... lol.
