Where in the World is Bob Saget?

Well that was a fun 30 or 45 minutes. I accidentally bumped a small snow globe off the top shelf of my desk. It then broke and made a big mess. It got on my bed, too. Luckily we had some old fitted bedsheets and I still have my old comforter in my closet. Still waiting before I put stuff back on my desk because I want to get some disinfectant wipes to wipe it off because that stuff stinks so bad, and there was glitter in it too. I'm not a big fan of glitter on all of my stuff.

But people pay money for glittery trash cans.

So, I haven't shared this story yet, as it is still playing out, and the details are sketchy.

Hubby's partner at work, is a lovely older gentleman named M.
I have been concerned with M's appearance for quite a while, and of course, being me, asked him directly if he was well. He assured me that he was, although he's had a bit of a persistent cough for 6+ months.

While working Saturdays with him at the new models last month, I asked him about his weight loss. He is normally a very lean man, but is downright gaunt right now. I always buy him little treats to have with his afternoon tea, but for those 3 weekends, I was feeding him 2 or 3 donuts per day.

On Monday, he spoke with the boss, saying that he was going to need a little time off work, and that if I were to fill in for him, he would forfeit his commission to me for any deals done during that time. He also said the same thing to Hubby a little later.

First of all, that's not how things work in this company, unless you need an extended leave of more than 3 months. Ideally, Hubby and M. should be sold out by then, and there is zero chance that I would scoop his $50K in commissions.

Anyway, long story short, I was right. M. is not well.
He has been undergoing tests these past few weeks.
He has another blood test and CT scan today; will work the weekend; and then has to have a needle biopsy on Monday.
On Tuesday, they will begin the first iron infusion and blood transfusion, another blood transfusion on Wednesday, and hopefully by Thursday they will have determined how to deal with the "mass" in his lower abdomen. Even prior to the biopsy, they are discussing radiation and/or chemo.

Hubby has not spoken to M. face to face yet, but hopes to get more details over the weekend.

Starting this weekend, Hubby will now be working 6 days per week, with me joining him on weekends if necessary. That is why I have gotten up with Beavis and Butthead every morning this week and done the work/school run, and then the afternoon pick ups. Hubby and I were going to split it, but that hardly seems fair now.

Please join me in wishing M. a successful treatment and a speedy recovery.
He was a widower fairly young in life, who remarried in his late 50's to a younger lady. So despite being 72 (or 73?), he has a 15 year old son.

Oh My, wish him well and will add him into my list of prayers, dang that list is too long. But the Beavis and Butthead comment did make me chuckle. And why do dudes procreate so late in life, wanting to keep up with Tony Randell? At least that dude had money to pass along for the young'n.

I went to the movies to see 22 Jump Street. So I'm not going to be very useful when the Sharknado comes I guess.

You know, the more I think about it, the more I believe that this whole Sharknado premise is highly unlikely.

I've decided to stop losing sleep over it.

Plus, I douse myself with shark repellant every morning before I get dressed. And then another spritz or two on my clothing.

I think I'm good.

Oh poor Judd Hirsch is probably the new Home Alone dad.

How ironic, and what range!!!

Lots of rain recently in MD and PA...

 

[Cesar R M]

The one where you were calling out the atheists?

Spoiler

That could be why.

yeah, but no idea why it would get deleted for that.
Its a well known joke making fun of those silly explanations of science vs religion.

is it legal to use Push's relatives to stay afloat as a canoe?

So they did the procedure on her stomach with the scope and found nothing. So they're really just guessing at this point. She's been eating more tonight from what my dad's said. Now it sounds like she could be in the hospital for a couple more days.

I don't think anybody really knows what's going on.

Very frustrating.
But, hopefully the Docs are starting to narrow things down and they can help her get well, soon.
Sending more prayers y'all's way.

Because religion and politics are two subjects they prefer not to be posted about. At one time it was in the Terms of Agreement.

Wait, is this the theme this weekend? Did I completely miss the conversation about it?

I don't think a theme was decided.

@Goofyernmost switched to Walter.
Someone else mentioned Peanut tonight.

So, in a pre-emptive strike, I snagged Achmed.

Kinda figured Jose Jalapeno (on a steeeek) for @Cesar R M.

Until y'all decide, I'll be rockin' Achmed - minus the "Silence, I keel you" tag.

Um... hypothetical question here... would I sound stupid if I said I have no idea who any of those people are, or even what you're talking about?

 

[PUSH]

I'm gonna take my extended nap now. Another day off tomorrow, so I'll talk to you all then. Good night!

Hahaaa!
Glitter was everywhere when I worked at The Disney Store. It was on my "costume", my face and arms, in my car, and quite a bit even made it home. Mostly, from girls Role Play (princess dresses).
But, while processing shipment, we would often find broken snow globes. What a mess. The liquid was very slippery and full of glitter, which made it even more of a PITA to clean up.

Dude, there's more to life than Sharknado, you know.
