Haha I promise to have Trevor home most nights by 12. Thank you for your understanding.

That's very kind of you, considering I'm usually passed out by 10 most nights these days.

I tried matching water and beers last night. I failed. The bar we went to has this beer called a black velvet which is Guinness on top and Downeast Cider on the bottom. The cider shoots up and mixes with the Guinness and it’s amazing. And now I’m spending my Sunday hurting.

Never mix. Recipe for a hang over.

Absolutely, the worst for me is recovery from injuries. If I jam a wrist or pull something in my back, I can feel it for months. My son cant put a shoe on because his ankle sprain is the size of a grapefruit is fine three days later. Its ridiculous.

I have plantar fasciitis. It has lasted 6 months. I rest it for two weeks, exercise for a week, knocks me out four weeks.. I can't walk without shoes it hurts that bad. I never recover anymore.

40 must be the worst thing to ever happen to a living human. You ache. Your metabolism shuts off. You must get 8 plus hours of sleep or you're shot for days.

And I say this as a 48 yo whose blood work is always basically pristine, exercises and is on zero prescription medications.

40 is tough. Im 41 now, but I still only sleep about 5/6 hours and Im good to go.
Still take jagrlike 3 minute shifts in roller hockey too.
The aches are there though. I went bowling yesterday with my daughter, and my lower right back is kinda sore this morning.
Also- the hangovers last at least until 4pm the next day now. Where I used to drink til 2am and be at work fine for 630am.

I used to love to go barefooted every chance I could. I haven't been able to do that in years, plantar fasciitis + bad back means wearing shoes all the time.

Congratulations to Mr. & Mrs. ODAAT!!! May you have a long and happy life together!!!!

So that's why you're always on your knees. Makes so much sense now...

Congrats to you and the missus, Andrew!

Got some gift cards to Hulu for my birthday, but before I join, I wanted to get the rundown on what shows on that channel are good. So if there are any Hulu users, what do you recommend? I can't see keeping it for that long as we already get streaming from Netflix and Amazon Prime, so I want to maximize the use of my gift cards.

I read 11.22.63, and enjoyed it thoroughly. How was the show/series compared to the book?

Didn't read the book, but James Franco is the lead, and I know he's been in some hot water lately. but he did a great job.

Has anyone seen that Netflix original "1922"? It's based on a Stephen King novella. Seems creepy as hell, but I feel like Netflix stuff is really hit or miss lately.

 

[LSCII]

Been getting into Love on Netflix this past few weeks. Pretty funny, in an awkward, uncomfortable way.

I did. It was OK...was creepy af, definitely. It's worth a watch, just not a must watch.

Took about 9 months for the pain to dissipate for me, limits what you can do for sure and the weird thing is you just wander around one day and realize it isn't there anymore. Sucks getting old but as someone said, it sure beats the alternative.

That's what I assumed.

Probably watch it tonight.

Boss just asked me to go Palm Beach for two days this week to take care of a few things. Booked a 5:40am out of Logan Wednesday morning, f*** this next snowstorm.

 

[LouJersey]

It's one of those movies where you'll be like ok, that was ok, glad I didn't see it in the movies but it's worth it on Netflix. Lemme know how you like it.
