I'm taking a personal day tomorrow after having such a sucky bday because of ex-wife and daughter today. I plan to work all day on the tank. Ken is supposed to come over tomorrow night, but we'll see. I want to get all the framing done so I can get the acrylic in place.

Silly hurricane/tropical storm putting a damper on my day off. I was able to get just about all of what I had already fitted screwed and glued down. I have a little left on the side where it jogs over, but need a board cut to finish that. Go away rain. Next is fitting the header and the framing for the window. I want to grind down the high spots on the tank framing to assure the plywood sheathing a snug fit. Lots of work to do, but I'm in no rush. Thoroughly enjoying the process.

Sans wife = no wife

Even when I did have a wife, she didn't dictate what I could and could not do. If I ever get married again, that would still hold true. Get unwhipped is my advice or do like a whipped friend of mine does, find what she likes (in his case she likes expensive purses) and buy her off.

My Wife wines at Me when I bring Home Fish or a fish tank. I ignore Her and when I wake up the next morning She is still here, and I still have My fish tank. I keep telling Her She is welcome to leave, She keeps staying.
If She bought an expensive purse I would put Her on the front stoop with her dog.
