Begin panic and irritation!
Ack! It's the small print that always gets you. My door buzzer is currently not working, so I can sympathize slightly on the access card problem. Hopefully, he has a decent property supervisor and maintenance dept!

sergeantbond called to see how we were doing and offered a chair and mattress through the family... This was the first bit of financial good news for B and he was ecstatic.
It's Christmas in July! Well, June. (Hence the icon!) That was nice of sergeantbond to check in and offer to assist. What a great guy!

beer and cereal and headed back to the apartment for a late dinner
Eww... I like beer, but that's not a good combo! ;)

So happy together

Millenium Star: "Grape-nuts & Schlitz!? That's a killer combo! I grant -1 taste appeal and +1 power to both of your partners."

Durn it all! Do you actually see that "namespace prefix" thing at the top? Why is it there? It was not intentional. And yes, Nate is a nice guy, as well as everyone else in the family! We really had a great time on our visit.

Dude, that cracked me up. I was laughing for 30 seconds straight!

If you click on "Edit Entries," you may be able to go in and take that out. Give it a shot!

Grape-nuts & Schlitz

Steve, as soon as my brain conjured "Schlitz" as it's first association with "beer," for whatever odd reason I do not know, I knew you'd be busting a gut. I even cracked myself up with that one. Too bad it's such an inside joke. *apologizes to everyone out of the loop*

Hmmm, I will try just deleting the "namespace prefix" portion. We'll see what happens. *holds his breath*
