Ohh well. Dying would not be so bad if you weren't gone for so long.
That, and missing the re-runs of Seinfeld..**

My dad took an early retirement because of shit happening at United at the time. Within two years, he was back working again. Said he needed some time off from retirement. Has stayed working part-time ever since. He currently works for one of the companies that work the piers for the cruise ships here in Seattle.

(**which would be odd for me, 'cause I never watched the show when it was on to begin with. :giggle: )

Good morning all, and GFY! I'm going outside to try to mow, if it's not too damp from the humidity. I'm concerned about all the issues with CC processors. I guess I need to step up my game and get what I need, whether I can afford it or not!

Yeah, it does happen. Ours ran at least once in the last week. And forget not that thermostats also control the cooling portion of furnace/heat pump/AC systems.

Yeah true, but it just seemed odd to think of a furnace in May, when we've been running the AC for well over a month.
I got my email with payment instructions for the Achilles 2! :stars:

Still not sure about getting more nicotine; I just have no idea how to find room to store it. :( Guess I could just order a 120ml from ECX, and keep that in the fridge to use from, rather than having to get into my stash right away.

Oh, and good morning/GFYs errybody. :)

Where did you get the Achilles from Andria ?

Supposed to be low to mid 30's here for the next 2 mornings.
We're too close to the metro area to get those temps this time of year, but the outlying areas have had temps dip into that range here in the past few weeks.

Not all of us live in climes such as yours. ;) Unless we have an unusual cold snap, our furnace shouldn't run again until sometime in late September. October to May is our heating season.

This is what the middle of May looks like, here:

Good morning and GFY!

Normally my furnace would be off for the season, but our last 2 springs have been quite cool. Two years ago, it was 101° on April 1, and it stayed that way til October. Right now it's 46, raining and windy as hell.

Ok, I just completed paying for my Achilles II -- total came to 98.65, if anyone else is curious about how that 85 euros translates to dollars -- there's also a "conversion fee" in there, since the current conversion I find online says it should be $96.12.

As far as ordering vape stuff... if you order from someplace not in the US which accepts paypal for payment, then it will work -- paypal has continued working for buying vape stuff, if the vendor is not in the US. US vendors are at the mercy of their credit card processors, and thx to the FDfuckingA, some of those processors are going to decline it.

Yeah, actually they're saying that it may dip into the 40s here on Sunday night -- might only be the extreme north of GA, in the mtns... the metro area may stay in the 50s. Still pretty chilly for mid-May!

It is. I can't let the house get too cold with the birds. Remember, Petey isn't feeling well. Without a thermostat I'm not even sure what the temp is in here. 60s right now, but it won't stay that way with this wind. I'm rural, it's flat terrain, and I'm wide open to wind.

I think PayPal nixed any vape gear a long time ago....but only for the small outfits....Fastech is fine....because it's all about the money with PayPal.

My very first FT purchase included some nautilus coils and FT would not let me use PP to pay and stated specifically that the coils were why I could not use PP. Went back, took the coils out and PP option reappeared.

A few other places slide under the radar on PP but not many

It's certain manufacturers that have had PP ban payments to FT. You couldn't buy an Erlkonigin clone there with PP either because the authentic maker complained to PP. The workaround is to buy something else. Then cancel it and ask for a gift certificate, then use the GC to buy your coils.

Good to know if I ever run into that again and just have to get whatever-it-is from FT using PP only

:( Have you ever seen the movie Paulie? Cried like a baby when I saw it. My sister had a quaker parrot a long time ago. Now she says there are wild flocks of them all over the New Orleans area.

I have it. The birds love it. Briana was a Blue Crown, like Paulie. Amazing and loving parrots. I miss her so much.

Many states have banned Quakers due to their ability to survive so well in the wild, even in cold climates. But, throughout the SE, and in California, there are many wild flocks of various types of parrots.

You have a portable electric heater to keep the children warm?.....:( That is damn cold for the middle of May.
