NWI INGO General Post - Part 7

[bradmedic04]

I bribed a plow driver to take care of our driveway. Plowed and salted....gotta love it.

 

[Andy219]

The day before my suspension. The drive home took an hour and a half. Got to Cedar Lake pulled into Straks parking lot, stepped out and proceeded to puke on a fresh snow pile. Got home and called work to see if they could cover me for a PLD (personal leave day) don't want to take a sick day right before I serve my suspension.

If they can't cover the PLD, it'll make for an interesting drive to and night at work tonight. I feel horrible.

Andy, rest, clear fluids, bland foods. Don't dehydrate. Rest. Don't eat more than you need. Rest.

 

[Snapdragon]

Feel better, Andy. (I guess INGO is too badass for a hug emoticon...)

 

[Andy219]

Still haven't found out if I'm off work tonight or not. Just doing water right now, no food. I was fine until 3am then I just started feeling... Blah... At around 815 I was just horrible. If I work tonight I'll have 25 days to recover starting tomorrow. If I do get today off I have 26 days to recover. I can't even smoke right now.

Vodka counts as as a clear liquid right?

Every time one I get comfortable and about to fall asleep it's time to make a run to the bathroom. Guess I should break out the trusty puke bucket. Ugh...

 

[melensdad]

Vodka no.

But Gin & Tonic should be good to go!

 

[Snapdragon]

Drink Gatorade or Powerade if you are able. If you don't have any and can stomach it, put a little sugar and salt in some cold water.

Or Gin & Tonic . . . but don't forget the twist of LIME, got to get your Vitamin C from that citrus fruit

Hey, that looks just like my back yard. I guess it's time to fire up the snowblower. I haven't used one for a long time. Anybody have a rough idea how many times a gallon of gas will do a fairly short driveway? I only got a gallon because I didn't know if it would start. I should probably get another gallon if I can find some 2-cycle oil. I drove all over CP a few days ago looking for the oil, and when Family Express only had 3 small bottles, my first instinct was to buy them all, but then I thought someone else might need the other two worse than me.

I would guess 3-4 times. Need to try Lowes, Home Depot, or Menards for the two cycle oil for the snowblower.

 

[Snapdragon]

Yeah, I just didn't want to drive that far out of town, esp. on Thursday when people were driving like idiots. I canceled a dentist appt. because I didn't want to drive to Highland, and then I almost had a guy back into me in the Strack's parking lot two blocks from my house. I think I'll make it through the weekend with what I've got.

I have a big bottle of pre-mix oil I can share, you need to get the gas and I can help you mix any amount you want.

 

[melensdad]

Probably head outside before noon to blow off the first half of the snowstorm?

Not because I need to, but because I'm bored sitting in the house.

I'm thinking of getting my tractor out too. To get away from the wife

A&M Farm Center might have some. I am not sure what the Crown Point Location carries, but I would think it likely. Of course they would be closed today.

 

[Snapdragon]

Thanks, Larry. I'm sure I can find some outside of CP if I need to.

Why don't I know what or where that is? I've lived in Crown Point all my life. Is it over by Hubinger's?

Still snowing. . .

 

[sadclownwp]

I can't get out of my neighborhood, roads are a sheet of ice under 8 to 10 inches of snow. First time I have called off work. Stupid Jetta can't make it up the steep hill in my neighborhood. I should have gotten the VW Tiguan instead.

Should have gotten some winter tires.
