I would say there is such a thing as caffiene dependance. Use to if I didn't drink my coke before coming in here I was a zomby all night, then switched to diet coke (less sugar) and after the sugar feeling left I think I became more dependant on the cafeine part. Of course I think a time comes round when cafiene no longer has much effect on a person, I can drink a diet coke and be asleep 10 minutes later.

Pep, I am not aware really of your family problem but I have caught bits and pieces of it here and there and I know it has something to do with you going to Ohio, and apparently your daughter ahs a mind of her own similar to her mother or something. (from a conversation of you dropping your daughter off in IL on your way to Ohio).

those hours are actually voluntary peppy. Keeps me from going out and drinking. Plus it helps buy the toys. Its almost like an addiction for me to be here at work. don't want to miss the detail of theis soap opera I call work. shoot one week last week i just couldn't say no, ended up with 101.5 hours.

Course that was short time after my divorce was final. I needed to get my mind off of certain things.

I didnt mean anyone knew the details...just that fact of its existance.
Yea, I'm still not dropping her off at your house. Nice try though.
You can drive your butt to Indiana and go skiiing, she'll be there.
And you can get lead around like a pup on a leash...shes relentless...guys do whatever she asks.
Theres just something about her that makes guys do silly stuff.
Same with her mom.

101.5 hours, dude that is way too much. When I was a sheetmetal worker I once had close to 80 hours in one week in 5 days. Friday night the owner was talking about the job we were going to tomorow and I said wait, I'm fishing tomorrow, he said we have this job to go and do, I said I've done 80 hours worth of job this week, I'm fishing tomorow. I slept and then went fishing, well , I slept tehn woke up, boat went to lake, had fresh iced cold MGD's, I laid back in a reclined position with the boat anchored and went to sleep again. Woke up a few hours later drank some beer and wet some lines.

Oh come on Pep, what more could you ask for in someone dating your daughter, I have a great job, I'm a good person, I drive Ford and I'm comical, plus I belong to your table of the interent bar here on FTE. Led around on a leash part, I think that is actually what I need, I am too darn stubborn at times.

LOL Thanks.
Really, I was just shaving before work....thinking mmm, maybe it could go.....no way. Wonder how many of us have facial hair. So a poll was devised right here in the steamy mirror.

That's why I asked for you to drop her off, don't want to put too many miles on the 04 you know. That thing has to last a while.
