Evening all!
I found out today that its true; masturbating kills kittums!

Nice early morning strum and tonight after work, I saw a cat vanish under a car's wheels to be left thrashing and howling in the middle.

I felt guilty til I got home and had a wank; now I'm all relaxed:)

If you don't want to feel guilty about wanking, don't look at live kittens while doing it. Out of sight - out of mind...

And yay for going home in full daylight. Although moving the clocks forward sort of feels like cheating. I've been waiting patiently for it to be full daylight (and not this twilight rubbish) when I get back from work, and just as I'm nearly there, the clocks go forward.

If you like image-HTML better than actual images, perhaps you may have accidentally put the HTML for a roof over your head instead of an actual roof. The gaps between the letters and the holes in them do tend to let water through.

It will be a big job.
The roof is old and needs to be re-shingled. Patching it really isn't an option.

That's why I have homeowner's insurance. Hopefully that will cover it, as it's about $9000 to do.

EDIT: and the melodrama at home has also ramped up now- apparently my son has decided to stick his nose into the conflict between my daughter and their mother. I had to firmly tell him to butt out of it last night. This was followed by a bit of scotch to settle my nerves, which resulted in me oversleeping this morning...

They're asphalt covered crap that cover roofs over here. We generally don't have slate as it's far more expensive.

Or rather, it *was* more expensive. With the cost of oil rising so much, asphalt has gone up a lot in price.

On the other hand
this weekend I helped a friend with doing some tile work in her kitchen, including the part around her window. Like most windows it has a wide sill, so the tiles had to either be cut in small pieces and fit together like a jigsaw puzzle to go around it, or something else creative needed to be done.

Enter the Loon with his glass cutting bandsaw! I cut a very complex shape in the tile and fit it in there, and with a little grout to fill in it looks as though it's been there forever. I'm very pleased with it!

In fact, I've had three of them. When they run well they're nice. When they break you have to use Bosch replacement parts, which are massively expensive. And if you mess with the stereo at all- say, to put in a better one- the car won't run, because Zee Germanss have built anti-theft things into them. You have to have the dealership do any sort of modifications for you.

I prefer Hondas myself.

Really? I* upgraded the stereo in mine and it's fine. Well, when I say fine, I mean, the central locking is borked, as is the rear wiper. And the boot lock. Which made getting the spare tyre out the boot very interesting. And when I say interesting I mean interesting as in "would have been worth contorting myself like that had there been a naked man with me at the time".

Don't know why I needed to share that.




*I, as in, I asked a man nicely and he did it for me. then he changed my stereo. arf

I didn't try it myself
but have been told not to mess with the stereo.

But I have tried working on my own car, and cursed Zee Germanss roundly as I struggled with it. The phrase "goose stepping fuckwits" may have been used.

Then again, Hondas and Nissans require you to have exceptionally small hands to work on them. The phrase "goddam little nips" may have been used a few times as well.

More or less.
It had a lot of things go wrong with it. The climate control in it was run by a small computer. The chip went bad, so it would cycle endlessly through the heat being on full blast, followed by the A/C on full blast. The sunroof jammed, and fixing it was going to cost about $600. The entire distributor mechanism finally went on it, one of the automatic windows was about dead, and fixing everything would have cost around $3000.

But worse than that: it was a front wheel drive car that did not handle well in the snow at all. I spun the thing out myself twice. We got rid of it and got a minivan and were infinitely happier.

The thing I found most disconcerting
was that with one woman in particular, something seemed to have happened to one of them so that if I squeezed her boob it made a faint creaking sound, like a naugahyde seat in a diner. And they felt... wrong. Too firm, too dense, like I was holding one of those squishy stress things filled with gel. They didn't move like real ones and didn't feel like them.
