No apologies
August 25th, 2014 10:15 amYup. I've not journaled in a while but I am going to make an effort to get back in the swing of things.
This pass weekend was opening weekend of MDRF and things were a bit weird at first, but nice weather and good energy on Sunday made a world of difference. Many friends made the effort to stop by Tessem Stoneware to visit![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
daecabhir and I which was a treat - in fact some of them even brought us treats.
Since time is of the essence today (who am I kidding, it is every day), here's the quotable quotes from opening weekend:
In the WTF department, when we were unpacking at Renniesylum North [tm] I discovered that somehow the tubing from CPAP went AWOL. It was last seen in Allen and Sherri's trailer, where it still be may lurking undetected. For night one, I ran out to Lowes, bought a dishwasher hose kit, and jury-rigged it on my CPAP. I was really brought of my ingenuity right up until the time that we went to bed and turned on said CPAP. The combination of rigid hose and internal ridges turned my CPAP into a freaking whistle. There was no chance of anyone getting sleep if I attempted to use it, so I went sans CPAP and got a completely crummy night's rest. Night two brought us to a different Lowes and an attempt at another hose (and a great Lowes employee). Once again, we got to Renniesylum North [tm] and once again, I set about jury-rigging my CPAP. While everything looked great, makeshift hose #2 wasn't going to work either. By this time, I was exhausted and ready to pass out.daecabhir managed to make our last resort (cutting the one CPAP hose we had in half) work successfully and we both were able to sleep.

- I'm a chocolate alcoholic. ~ Bobbie (who works in the booth with us)
- Don't do that or I will give you a black eye with my boobs. ~ Me to Eric who was trying to undo my bra clasp.
- I am legally required to own this mug in the state of Florida. ~ Patron
- Lady by day. Wench by night. ~ seen on a T-shirt
