Cheddar cheese, polk salad, and my next door neighbor...which two of these three go together?

So....our dishwasher has this design flaw called "it's getting old" that leaves it with these gaps that let forks and other utensils fall down out of the little basket and hang in space, caught by the very end so that the rack won't slide in or out until the item that's caught is removed. It makes you have to fully lift the sliding rack itself and work out the stuck object, and it's kind of a big deal in a not that big a deal way.

Today I was trying to pull out a spoon, and naturally, it being like 5:00 AM, the spoon fell into the no man's land between the silverwear tray and the lower portion of the dishwasher itself.

Being 5:00 AM, I didn't feel like lifting the whole shelf and making noise, so I rolled the dice and tried working my hand into the space between the rack and the bottom. Leaning forward in a contorted stance like that, I clutched the spoon just fine but then found my hand was stuck. I mean really stuck. Like no matter how I tugged it stayed stuck kind of stuck.

So I stood there in this undignified pose, thinking, "why did my parents have to meet?" and actually had to (oh the humiliation) get my three-year-old to go wake her daddy up, and rescue me from my crazy plight, all before sunrise.

So help me God, that schlocky dishwasher goes this very week!

Yesterday I was up at 430, dressed, went to gym, exercised in a group,  changed, went to work, trained two people, worked all day, got home at 630 discovering I HAD WORN TWO DIFFERENT SNEAKERS THE WHOLE TIME.

Three things you should do.
1: Take it to a shooting range.
2: have at it with what ever boom stick ya got.
3: enjoy the catharsis.

He also didn't smother under his stuffed animals as a baby, Clare. Stuffed animals are pretty darn safe. (Sorry, had to add that too)

The good thing about everyone else in the office being off sick is that I have a free hand in what music gets played (currently Blue Oyster Cult).
Hail to thyself
For I am my own master
I am my own god
I require no shepherd
For I am no sheep.

I'm getting sick of networking all the time & never actually doing anything.

Trying to get my paws on some footage from my most recent work, which I just found out the director decided to scrap & start all over...  :hatred:
