Montarvillois Posted July 23, 2004 Share Posted July 23, 2004 First off I don't know in what topic category this should fall into, hell I don't even know if it's proper to post such things but I'll do it anyway as this is one of these days when you feel totaly satisfied with life and it's simple pleasures. First, this morning I took a drive to the barber shop right after my wife and kids left to the summer house up north. I was enjoying a perfect road with no traffic whatsoever, driving my spanking new Honda Element (perfect variable SUV). Came back home with a fresh new haircut and spent almost 8 hours just laying in the sun (39%, not a cloud in the sky) reading through my whole collection of Hobby Japan and Dengeki Hobby Magazines. I spent also almost 4 hours uninterrupted in the pool with my whole lineup of 1/48's sitting in front of me on the walkway, transforming the hell out of them while sipping mojitos and smoking a huge cuban Montecristo Habana genuine cigar. When 6:00 PM hit me, I went and cooked myself the thickest T-Bone steak I had seen in my life, that marinated in Worchestershire sauce all day. After covering the carnivore's dream with Montreal steak spices and mixing a perfect ceasar salad, I opened up a bootle of Campofiorino Massi red wine. I chowed down the whole thing and I am now heading out to watch Macross Plus' 4 episodes without beeing interupted by my wifes requests, my baby's needs or my oldest's cravings for attention. I pinched myself a couple of times today to see if I was dreaming or if I was in fact enjoing these simple pleasures and the conclusion: it was (and still is) a perfect day. After watching M+, I am heading straight to Baskin Robbins to get a mega 2 scoops ice cream cone and then I'll head straight to bed. BLISSS.... Signing off.

CoryHolmes Posted July 23, 2004 Share Posted July 23, 2004 You'll just have to ignore the muttered groans and muffled threats from the rest of slaving away at hot places of work, drinking nothing but 2-cent coffee or barely-filtered water.

I was gonna mention that.... but my place of work has AC... and wonderful coffee and water, though I never touch either. I like my job, I just gotta do MW Solid Snake style. You got a summer house Monty? How come you haven't had any MWCONs there with beer etc? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my case I am totally fried, I work all day, when I get home my wive is waiting in the door with my gear on a bag and takes me EVERYDAY to the gym... after that... baby dinner, baby bath, baby sleeping process, then our dinner, finally BACK TO WORK till 1 or 2 AM. That is my life EVERY single day... OMG... weekends... BABY wakes me up at 7.30 AM!!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! I am living in Shnaghai... here is NO place for hollydays, except you take a plane to Malasia or Tailand... we are all alone, no family... means we have to carry the baby and all baby stuff everywhere. Snif! And on top of all this... My wife bought a massage beg and set it up IN MY TOYS & TV ROOM!!! DAMN !!! THAT WAS MY SPACE!!! Now I have to crawl under that bed to see my collection... the speakers are useless and I have to stand to see my TV screen over the bed I am nothing but a slave of that baby and his moher. Wanna cry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfx Posted July 23, 2004 Share Posted July 23, 2004 ouh sebastian....that sounds scary....I hope i don't have to become like that in future. The world would be perfect if i can live without working, or maybe buy valks for a living and not use a single cent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fearyaks Posted July 23, 2004 Share Posted July 23, 2004 Good day except for the sun sleeping bit (but then again, I can tell by your icon you're into that).

Skull Leader Posted July 23, 2004 Share Posted July 23, 2004 for shame! that you would soil such a great day with something so "passe" as a monte cristo! It shouldn't have been anything less than an EXCALIBUR! I get days like that sometimes man, enjoy them to the fullest while they are around!

God do you guys know what its like living in Japan now that American Beef is illegal?! So what if I can get all kinds of Macross toys, I cant enjoy a nice thick, juicy, mouth-watering T-bone without paying out the yinyang. I read his post, and suffer.

Skull Leader Posted July 23, 2004 Share Posted July 23, 2004 heheh, I'm tempted to walk down the block and eat at our local steakhouse.... for $13.00 I can eat a T-bone or New York strip steak that could stand up (on it's own) and whoop Bill Goldberg's ass.... And let's not forget the heavenly garnish of sauteed mushrooms and onions... the fully loaded baked potato. And what true red-meat lover's meal would be complete without a nice baked loaf of bread completely drowned in melted butter? a true culinary orgasm purchased for mere pennies on the dollar. And as good as it tastes? It feels just as good coming out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mechamaniac Posted July 23, 2004 Share Posted July 23, 2004 (edited) ...while sipping mojitos and smoking a huge cuban Montecristo Habana genuine cigar. Yeah yeah, go ahead, and rub it in you lucky Canuck! Must be nice to stroll down to your local tobacconist, and be able to buy Cubans LEGALLY! Those of us in the US still have to smuggle them back from places like....well......Canada for shame! that you would soil such a great day with something so "passe" as a monte cristo! It shouldn't have been anything less than an EXCALIBUR! I myself would have gone for a nice Bolivar Corona. But since I'm in the US, and all the Cubans here were bought up by JFK the week before he signed the embargo, I guess I'll just have to stick with my Romeo y Julieta Cedros No 2's until I get another trip out of the country so I can bring me back some nice Cubanos.

Mine's the Sunset Orange... what color you driving? Cool Blaine, Mine is Shoreline mist color, I didn't choose the color cause I could not pass on such a great bargain when I bought mine (cost -20%). I am indeed a member of the Elements owners club too link but I am also a member of Hondaelement.org if you havent found this site yet. My member name is "montrealer". The Element is indeed the perfect Macross vehicule as you can "transform" it's configuration at will, fit a Zentraedi in the trunck and still roll in combat scarred terrain.
