Kamanjah

Hi Sprite! I hope you are doing well today.

3:44 am

sprite

I am okay. Slept a little better and already got the groceries, so now I can take it easy. And this is the best kind of K grid. How are you doing today?

3:45 am

rebelsass

hi sprite!

3:45 am

sprite

hiya rebel :)

3:45 am

Kamanjah

Winding down because it's after 1AM here. My yard guy came but couldn't fix my mower. He did the weed whacking, so I hope he gets the tool he needs - he knew he needed it 2 weeks ago....

3:46 am

rebelsass

does anyone have a clue for the sh7/32? i'm kinda stuck...

3:46 am

sprite

ouch. So frustrating when people are uncaring like that.

3:47 am

sprite

do you have the 6/21 that comes after it?

3:47 am

rebelsass

nope...

3:47 am

Kamanjah

He got annoyed at the machine because he dropped a part. He knew what he needed, he has been bs'ing me for weeks on this. I should have called someone else to fix it.

3:48 am

sprite

hm okay, they are yiddish words. The 3rd letter is not a vowel...

3:48 am

Kamanjah

I never can spell those correctly, lol!

3:49 am

sprite

frustrating, Kam. Sounds like another person should be better indeed

3:49 am

sprite

lol, the spelling is hit and miss because it is transcripted from another alphabeth.

3:50 am

Kamanjah

Yep, but he now has the whole bottom part of the mower. I will give him a week. All he needs is a torque wrench. If it's not fixed, I'll tell him to bring the parts back and call the other guy I know.

3:50 am

sprite

good idea. Jeezzzz that is basic equipment for repairing stuff

3:50 am

rebelsass

ty, sprite!!! *hugs*

3:51 am

sprite

yvw!

3:51 am

Kamanjah

I know!! He said he was going to bring one!

3:54 am

sprite

*kicks the repair guy in the bedoobies*

3:55 am

Kamanjah

HAHA! Thanks for that!

3:56 am

sprite

any time :)

3:56 am

Kamanjah

I have never heard the term bedoobies in my life, lol! Fitting, however.

3:56 am

rebelsass

FW! yay! now I can take my meds and go to sleep! but it's already almost 4am, and i've got chores to get done today, so i might just stay up to get them done and then take a nap. does anyone need any clues?

3:56 am

sprite

it just came out. No idea where from.

3:57 am

sprite

wtg rebel!!!!!!!!!!!!! No clues needed yet here. I hope you can either sleep well though short, or sleep well after.

3:57 am

Kamanjah

Wow, a headline just flashed across my page - "86 47". I couldn't agree more!

3:58 am

sprite

I have no idea what that means

3:59 am

Kamanjah

In bar talk, 86'd means either kicked out or no more of a certain food is left. I think you know who 47 is.

3:59 am

sprite

ah, googled it. I am with you.

3:59 am

rebelsass

oh i'll sleep well either way, sprite! finals are over, i've been off all week, i've gotten my grades, and i'm all prepped for the fall semester. i just need to go to my psychiatrist's office for a silly letter so i can go back to school.

3:59 am

sprite

awesome, rebel. You are navigating some very challenging times like a pro!

4:01 am

Kamanjah

Rebel, glad you're all prepped for fall. That's good news.

4:04 am

rebelsass

thanks, kamanjah. i've got the whole summer off, and since i do, i'm bored. so i decided to get myself ready for the fall early. and i plan on doing something different this summer by creating a vlog on FB, TikTok & maybe IG, called As I've Been Told. just some short little blips about my life as a disabled veteran navigating life and school and how i get through everything.

4:05 am

Kamanjah

Beware of trolls, my dear. People say the nastiest things on social media.

4:05 am

Kamanjah

I wish you the best with trying to do it!!

4:06 am

sprite

sounds like an inspiring thing, rebel

4:07 am

rebelsass

oh i know. and scammers. i've already been scammed. i've recently been the victim of the long con by someone who said they were interested in me, and they got real personal with me, we'd been communicating for 3 weeks, and then he started asking for money. that's when i stopped communicating with him.

4:08 am

sprite

they can be so sneaky.

4:08 am

Kamanjah

Literally, watch your ass! I hope it works out for you to connect with other disabled vets.

4:08 am

sprite

watch your rebelass :D

4:09 am

rebelsass

oh yeah, very sneaky, sprite. and i just hope to reach out to anyone who is having a hard time, kamanjah, not just veterans. i'll watch my rebelass, because i'll use my rebelSASS every time....

4:10 am

rebelsass

:D ;D

4:10 am

sprite

:D :D

4:10 am

Kamanjah

Gotcha!! You go, girl!

4:13 am

rebelsass

4:13 am

sprite

*hugs rebel* take care!

4:14 am

Kamanjah

g'night rebel

4:18 am
