I need to figure out what's going on with the water in my home. It's all tasting very salty, like the water softener is putting in too much salt or not removing it during the softening process. Drinking the water started to taste a little funny a couple days ago, and yesterday it became downright awful. I can't imagine the salt used in water softeners is good to ingest at such high quantities.

Sperm? Or sperm'ish?

Happy Friday Lodge. Already got one side eye from a co-worker (where's your green??). Seriously, for the past 5-6 months I've been wearing red for a reason. Not that I wear green when BU doesn't have a game, but still. Shut it all of you.

OK, big meeting at 10am, then need to keep my brain occupied to distract me from the stress I will encounter later this evening.

Well, the water's still clear. I can't comment as to the taste of the one, but the water is salty.


Looking online, the salty taste can sometimes be caused by running water to a faucet during the recharge. I may have had my dishwasher going during that last recharge cycle. This is just all the more irritating because the softener is new as of this past fall.

"Do I look Irish to you?"
 
Re: Rep Retirement Lodge #190: Springing Forward

Good Morning Lodge!

Wearing blue today.

Not Irish. When I was a kid my Mum would have fits if I said I wanted to wear green. "You are a Scot!! Not Irish". If one was wise, one did not pursue further. (Mum's mum had a serious thing against the Irish).

Well, your mum's mum can.....ok, I won't say it. ;)

Slainte to all! Hitting up church today, hopefully the manager is there so we can have a toast. He's direct from Skibbereen Ireland. Really cool guy. Then settling in for the Gophers game.
 
Re: Rep Retirement Lodge #190: Springing Forward

I wonder how crowded all the airport bars are going to be today. Good thing I don't care to find out. :p

Even better, maybe this is the day I see someone get kicked off an airplane for being an amateur!

Flying to TPA later and driving down to Port Charlotte to visit my grandparents for a weekend. Therefore, no Houghton trip for me.

On my memories on Facebook this morning I saw a post that from last year where someone wanted to pinch me for not wearing green and I asked them if I could slap them upside the head for not wearing blue and white on March 25th. That's Greek Independence Day, in case you were all wondering. :)

Dumb question here - how the * does one pronounce Slainte?
 
Re: Rep Retirement Lodge #190: Springing Forward

I refilled a prescription through my insurance company's online site a couple of hours ago. The site told me, as it always does, that they will send email status reports. I said to myself that I never get emails. So I checked and I had typed my email address incorrectly. This must have been at least five years ago. Either someone else has been getting my status reports or they have been bouncing. Anyway it works now, and I have received two emails, that they got my order and that it was shipped.

I think maybe the Irish should learn what sounds letters are actually supposed to represent.

I think Irish pronunciation/dialect is a clever scheme to hide their level of intoxication. If you talk like that sober...how can anyone tell when you've had a wee bit much o' the Guinness?
 
Re: Rep Retirement Lodge #190: Springing Forward

Today work is giving out bottles of Canada Dry Ginger Ale and A&W Root beer. They claim its because they can't give out green beer, so they are giving out green... and beer.

*rim shot* HR is so clever around here. :p
