    I cancelled tomorrow's surgeries for a variety of reasons. Worked today and am exhausted. Surgeries were not at Children's.

    So to summarize:

    you allegedly worked in tropical storm conditions today, but you cancelled on the poor kids. 

    I made carpet all day for all races, creeds, ethnicities, ages and orientations.

    Saw all races creeds and religions today. Last office open in the building. Operated on kids last week. More than half of tomorrow's schedule self cancelled. The others chose to reschedule. I'd have operated. It's a non event that people freak out over. It's all good.

    Yeah, but carpet. I slung a few bean bags in 84 degree weather today as well. The struggle is real my friend.

    @bgebrent- glad you were pretty much spared the brunt of the storm.  Hope lake palace and yacht survived unscathed as well.  

    Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. # 38 for the win.  Life is too short for light/lite beer!  Seems I'm livin in a transitional period.

    One: I was fûcking with Brent. He knows it. 

    Two: it's a lot more complicated than you think. I'd invite you to come visit our manufacturing should you ever find yourself in NWGA. 

    Don't think I've ever called you out for selling garments.

    I'l take it. I've been in many carpet mills- needlepunch and woven. I've distributed carpet in TX for Guilford Mills, Dorsett Mills and FOSS. I've sold millions of yards of carpet in my life!

    Majority if carpet is made on tufting machines. Looms are used in rugs and very high end wool. Also, some commercial such as aviation.

    Just reporting in since power here in Peach county Georgia has been restored.
    Son called after the storm had passed and said the house and egg were fine but a section of fence I had planned to replace was down. No power at the house but homes around us are ok. Waiting until early tomorrow morning to make the drive down. Our egging neighbor left here this morning at 4:30 am and is past Lake City Fl already. Will report back when we get home, if we have power and internet. Thanks for looking.
