Tundras live: Dumb Dad Jokes, Incorrect Opinions, and Relationship Advice.

I can't tell what is and isn't whatever genre these days anyway. Used to be simple with categories you could count on 2 hands, but now? Shit, there's 50 different kinds of every genre because everyone thinks they are so unique and don't want to be labelled or boxed in or some other stupid touchy feely artistic drivel.

Two birds in the sauce…

 

I'm surprised this doesn't get you a few days on the beach...

 

You bet!
Nope, tomorrow is day 3 of 3. Off for two, then work Sat-Wed. Two days are OT.

Pretty much ready, having 10-12 people over for food and sports.

 

Are they already thawed?
We're doing a bird this year for the first time. It's still in the fridge, half frozen.

 

I’m curing a fresh ham. We’re going lite this year

 

Anyone still alive in here?

 

Nope!

 

Hello....

What up GZ????

 

Struggle bussin' through my last night shift. Thankfully it's quiet so far, so I'm getting paid to have youtube going in the background. How about you?

 

Getting ready to try and crash here shortly.... I've got to be up early (early for me) to go grab Christmas trees tomorrow w/the wife

 

Doing a real tree, or picking up an artificial one?

 

I saw your post on the RCI sliders... Good price, but shipping is $600?? I would think they'd try to freight those instead of ship through FedEx, but who knows?

I was comparing on the Demello website, and I can't even get it to show a shipping cost. Maybe they won't ship to my address. I mean it's not like I live in the continental US or anything

 

We do Turkish firs.... One for upstairs and one for down! We found the Turkish fir, looks like a fir (needle style etc..), but they are filled out much more than a traditional Douglas fir. Also the needles are softer and don't seem to trigger allergy response in people quite as easy.

 

It was cheaper when I got mine, but I live much closer to Colorado than @Green Thunder does. FedEx does actually ship freight. They have FedEx Ground with the purple and green letters, FedEx Express with purple and orange, and FedEx Freight with the purple and red.

 

Yeah, we didn't do real trees growing up. Have a brother who had a really bad allergy, so we went with a monstrous plastic tree. It's pretty and worked for years. Now I'm lazy and I do a little ceramic one with built in LEDs.

 

We have a fake tree because Christmas tree shopping with Mrs. Machine is a nightmare.

 

Easier to find a fake one that is perfect than a natural one?

 

I understand they ship freight, but I'm saying a more traditional freight company may be cheaper... Such as DHL, etc.. I mean the things can't weigh any more than 200lbs. I had my Tundra shipped from IA to OR for $1800...

 

Same growing up; my mom was highly allergic to pine

 

Exactly. Spent years going to multiple tree lots digging through dozens of trees. Finally told her I couldn’t do it anymore.

 

You're up late....

 

Oh, I totally forgot about tree lots! We went to get ours in the mountains a few times, but I don't know that Texas has a lot of firs around. I don't think I'd like dealing with a tree lot and all the people. You made a wise decision.

 

Up at my usual time actually. I don’t sleep much, and I usually leave for work around 4. Unfortunately I still wake up at 2-3 when I’m off.

 

They aren’t as prevalent as they used to be. There used to be Christmas tree lots everywhere. Like firework stands.

 

Makes sense.. What type of work?

I've never been a morning person. Any time I wake up to an alarm clock I feel tired no matter how much sleep I had.
