    Working from home is not the way to spend Sundays. Sheesh.

    A weekend crammed with social obligations is over. Looking forward to five days of simple stress and aggravation.

      Isn't this how 'Breaking Bad' got started? :) Stay safe...

    I realised I have perfected my scribing technique. Meaning, it ain't gonna get any better than this.

    Husband goes to pull steak out of freezer, finds Academy Liberator inside. Hilarity ensues.

      LOL @ y'all. I bought it built 2nd hand, froze to disassemble glued parts, then, being the birdbrain that I am, forgot.

      Ricky: "Aieee, Lucy! Di'n't I told you not to put Little Ricky's toys in the freezer?!"

      Lucy: "Awww Ricky - Waaaaaaaah!!!"

    Husband has forgotten my birthday and is dining out with colleagues. To nag or not to nag, that is the question...

      The Ex used the Wall of Silence to great effect. Very unnerving.

      Well, he did come home and wish me happy birthday... at 23:21. I was so sleepy I couldn't have protested if I wanted.

    Back from the first ski trip in 20+ years, brought back all limbs. Success!

    Regular idiots bust their back while lifting heavy boxes. Special idiots, like me, bust their back by leaning over the desk to press ENTER. Spent the weekend lying in bed.

      I tore my meniscus jumping up a flight of steps in a vain attempt to impress my wife with my vigor and virility. Whoops.

      I'm won't pretend to be fit and athletic but I do play regular football, during my first year of uni as an 18 year old I got a back spasm putting a washing line cover on

      What irks me is that I'm in charge of safety training, I teach my coworkers how to lift toolboxes etc.

      Bad habits were rooted deep enough without this happening to me...

    Tip: If you're going to fool around with a fire extinguisher, have the common sense of doing it outside. Unlike me.

      Okay now for the funniest part: I'm staying late, cleaning the archives to get rid of the staff. I found the paperworks of a pressurized tank that we dismissed because we couldn't find the paperworks. It's currently sitting forlorn in our yard. Its replacement cost us over 1K quids. Should I tell the boss or not?

      *stuff not staff, I don't work in HR

      Now you've got two pressurized tanks. Bonus! A spare one :D

    You'd think an entire bomber wing, even in 1/72, would be harder to lose...

      I've managed to lose an Attacker wing and tailplane! yesterday the carpet monster attempted to make off with a complete Bf110 propeller assembly, took 10 minutes to find it after it fell off my bench!

      I see your point, but my floors are all tiled!

    Went for the first time to visit a house for sale. Bad idea. Now I'm calculating mortgage rates...

    1. MikeW

      A mortgage, property taxes, insurance and the odd repair, like a new roof, can cut so much into ones' modelling budget - but generally well worth it.

      Remember you're buying a home to live in and not an investment property and you'll get it right. Good luck!

      Eeeh, it would be much easier if we only could afford what we need... and the house market is at its lowest point in decades! We'll never make it...

    Machine-washed an USB key at 30 °C, then dropped it two stories as I was hanging the pants on the line... Let me save to HD just fine.

    Went cycling after a ten-year hyatus. Everything south of my navel is either numb or cramping.

    I vehemently deny that my recent acquisition of a purse may have anything to do with today's earthquake.

    My esteemed colleague wishes to express his disaffection with the local subsidiary of his bank through "a Canadair full of MEK". My sides are still hurting.

      Interesting variation on the tractor-load of slurry haha

    I realized that I recognise all the characters on the Fairly Oddparents cast. Somebody please sneak from behind and kill me quickly.
