OT: Friday Afternoon Posbang Thread
Without much time left for OT threads, and with profitgoblue taking a temporary hiatus from posting these threads, I thought the time was right for another. What's everyone up to at work? At home already? Big plans tonight? Let's have some fun, it's Friday at four (for those of us in the Eastern Time Zone).

I need a little posbang action as in about 30 min I've got to head to work (2-11 PST).
Get well soon PeeWee Optimus Prime and 14 days until the Tide rolls over.
August 17th, 2012 at 4:03 PM ^

August 17th, 2012 at 4:05 PM ^
I'm going to go to BWW in a few,get really drunk, and probably piss my pants.
August 17th, 2012 at 4:06 PM ^
About to get off work and head to Ashley's...drink beer, watch the Lions, watch the Tigers. Mostly just chilling. Higgins next weekend.

my annual one week vacation to Higgins last month. What a wonderful place
August 17th, 2012 at 5:17 PM ^
I used to live on the Gold Coast on Higgins Lake growing up. I went to Roscommon High School. I live in Orlando, FL now and sure do miss practically living on our boat on Higgins in the summer. Heading up to Marquette to see some family next week though. Looking forward to the lower humidity.

At my office. Troegs Perpetual IPA. At 7.5% ABV, a strong start to my Friday evening.
August 17th, 2012 at 4:17 PM ^
Troegs is good beer. I was in Philly a couple weeks ago and had their Troegenator Doppelbock, which, being a big doppelbock fan, I loved. I also noticed the 'MI - 10c deposit" on the bottle... meaning it must be available around here somewhere. Think I'll go in search of it after work.
August 17th, 2012 at 5:15 PM ^
beer.

Just bought a case of this bad boy. I wish I had some sport (as opposed to sports) to watch this with.

August 17th, 2012 at 4:15 PM ^
High five! Tacos tonight for me as well
August 17th, 2012 at 5:16 PM ^
Forgot to mention the beer!!!!
August 17th, 2012 at 4:09 PM ^
Going to get together with buddies and play laser tag like we are 12. Also will have plenty of beers before and after.
August 17th, 2012 at 4:09 PM ^
Cheers to a speedy recovery and it being nothing too serious...
August 17th, 2012 at 4:09 PM ^

August 17th, 2012 at 4:13 PM ^

I went to M-Den today during lunch and started stocking up on new gear for the new season. Among other things, I bought a cap-clip ball marker to use at a golf outting tomorrow. I'm geeked about all of this as well as the upcoming season. So I will celebrate with a variety of beers tonight.
New M stuff.
Beer.
Golf.
Beer.
Season only 2 weeks away.
Beer.
Friday.
Beer.
These things make me happy.

it is the natural order. dang you made me really want chili.
August 17th, 2012 at 4:13 PM ^
Getting settled in Ann Arbor and preparing for grad school. Also, I got me a job today, so there's that. Great day so far.
August 17th, 2012 at 4:14 PM ^
I was at an interesting meeting with my state senator and some representatives of DTE that live in my area regarding various energy policy issues in Michigan. It ended early, but my manager told me that I could just head on hom afterwards. Not wanting to be abad employee, that is exactly what I did. Before that, there was the usual Friday data cleansing - hopefully nobody needed any of those old work orders, right?
My wife works from 7 PM to 3:30 AM, so it will really be just myself and the kids after 6 PM or so, and after the kids go to bed, probably just me and MGoBlog.
This weekend, the seasonal MGoDecorations (adding the flag in the yard this year, now that I've landscaped for it) will be coming up from storage in lieu of the season. In my mind, they should stay up all year, but apparently there are other holidays for which one decorates.
August 17th, 2012 at 4:24 PM ^
My girlfriend and I just moved into our own place, and I happened to find a framed copy of her senior picture at her parents place. Being the jerk I am, I hung it up above the couch in the living room (that kind of stuff makes her uncomfortable), and she offered to let me hang my Block M flag above the couch if I would move her picture into storage. Long story short, I have an apartment with a full sized Block M flag in the living room and I didn't even have to argue for it. Good times indeed.
August 17th, 2012 at 4:25 PM ^
It is interesting that you mention this, because the indoor flag (to the left of the TV, if you sit on the family room sofa) replaces a collage of childhood photos that my mother put together. That collage coming down means a few months of not having to explain why there is a photo of me kicking my feet up on a desk next to an Apple IIGS, or indeed, a photo of me wearing a bathrobe and playing euchre.
August 17th, 2012 at 4:14 PM ^
gonna watch the lions and drink beers in utah great day
August 17th, 2012 at 4:15 PM ^
Gonna wet some line this weekend. Hopefully come home with some tuna.
August 17th, 2012 at 4:16 PM ^
August 17th, 2012 at 4:20 PM ^
Hopefully we can pound it real hard if it's wide open to the the decks bloody.
August 17th, 2012 at 4:17 PM ^
Housewarming party for a friend tonight, USA Triathlon National Championships spectating tomorrow morning, ballroom dancing social tomorrow night, engagement party Sunday.
Gonna be a good weekend.
August 17th, 2012 at 4:20 PM ^
You do tris?
August 17th, 2012 at 4:35 PM ^
No, though I'd be lying if I said I hadn't considered it. Just spectating in this case.
August 17th, 2012 at 4:45 PM ^
Same here. I am the world's worst runner and I don't even own a road bike. But, I am a very good swimmer. I helped my friend train for the swimming portion because he was terrible at swimming and awesome are the other two.
August 17th, 2012 at 5:40 PM ^
I'm doing the LA triathalon in September as a relay. My wife is a marathoner, her best work friend swam at LBSU, and I...I know how to ride a bike so I'm the biker. You should find a couple other people and do it too - you're very valuable since the swimmer leg is the hardest to find.
August 17th, 2012 at 4:17 PM ^
Damn, I needed a posbang. My wife is 38 weeks pregnant and looks absurd. Hopefully I'll have another son by the end of the weekend.
August 17th, 2012 at 4:56 PM ^
August 17th, 2012 at 4:18 PM ^
Counting down the hours to left over pizza, a beer, and catching up with the DVR.
August 17th, 2012 at 4:18 PM ^
It's only 1:16 p.m. here on the hottest day of the year. I just got back from lunch and plan to sit here in the A/C and not-work for another couple hours until it's late enough in the day to open up the box that just got delivered from my wine club. But Monday is probably gonna suck.
August 17th, 2012 at 4:19 PM ^
So tired. Want to sleep. Second the West Coast thing...it's 1:19 in Seattle and it's hot out :|
August 17th, 2012 at 4:19 PM ^
In Milwaukee to party my arse off.
August 17th, 2012 at 4:21 PM ^
and due to a company outing today (which I'm not going to), we all get out of work 1 hour earlier. This is pretty much how I feel about now:
August 17th, 2012 at 4:21 PM ^
Also, in case you were wondering - piña colada.
August 17th, 2012 at 4:21 PM ^
I was in D.C. for work a couple of weeks ago and a coworker offered to let me use her map and travel guide of the city. I figured I could just use the internet for that information but didn't want to be rude so I took the stuff and thanked her. Of course I left it in my hotel room and today after work I have to go buy a new book and map for her. Totally sucks.
On the bright side I do have a $5 off coupon for Qdoba which is near the bookstore. #blessed
Beers will be consumed once I make it home. It's been a long week and I need to escape reality for a few hours.
August 17th, 2012 at 4:21 PM ^
End of summer internship = time to rage.
