Buzzstuff: Damn!

March 08, 2006

Damn!

I don't think that it's a good sign of things to come when you bend down to give the cats their food and you hear *RRrrrriiippPPPP*. That was the unsettling, and might I add 'disappointing', sound I heard this morning. That awful sound of cloth tearing. I looked down at the now breezy part of my attire and saw that my pants had ripped from stem to stern. And while I hear that in some Indonesian countries ripping the crotch out of your pants first thing in the morning is considered extremely good fortune, I believe that here in the states it is still considered fairly rotten luck.

How about you? How's your day going so far? Any rips we'd all like to hear about?

I ripped one first thing this morning too, but you don't hear bitching about it. Now tuck your stem into another pair of pants and get your breezy ass to work.

I'm hoping to avoid the Rrriiippp Syndrome today... but there is definitely NOTHING good that can come of Rrriiippp Syndrome. Sorry 'bout your luck today! (I hope it only gets better!!!)

nah, no rips over here. Just a lot of sore muscles :)

Extra heavy duty stitching so no rips here

better it to be your pants going when you hear that rip then your back muscles. been there, done that -- and believe me, the whole pants thing is less painful.

This morning, I actually tangled my foot in the sheets/blanket and fell out of my high-mattress bed just getting up, HOWEVER, I just got a call from the "snooty" wine store (Have I mentioned how much I love wine?) where I'd applied for a part-time job and I've been hired...at the hours/pay I was hoping to get! Moral: Ya just never know. Hang in there Buzz!

At least it was only the pants that ripped, if you know what I'm sayin'.

I ripped one last night. But not the same kind of rip ;)

So far, this morning is rockin'. Better than yesterday, anyway!!

Almost Friday!!!!!

Ouch that will teach you to feed the cats.

Sorry I'm late posting on this post about ripping a hole in your pants, Buzz! I hope you didn't catch a cold!

I did rip alot of paper on my birthday that day, but not my pants, because if I did, I'm sure my friend Nadia would have covered it with a paper plate!

Must've been the Ripping of Pants Day. One of the guys in my office had it happen to him...and he stayed in work all day with a huge rip just below his butt cheek!

Damn, now he's a scientist what with all the splitting jeans and such.

Oh lord, I need more vodka.
