I asked a pretty, young homeless woman if I could take her home. She smiled at me and said yes.

The look on her face soon changed when I walked off with her cardboard box.

Good morning, folks. I can't wait until December, when summer is over. Our 4 days of winter can't get here soon enough.

Morning OT'ers
Got an oncology appt this morning, hopefully the last of those for a while. Gonna see if I can clear out the schedule until the next scan in January - would be nice to head back to work and be able to stay out until Thanksgiving.
Gotta clear up everything with my company's safety department as well as I got shot up with fentanyl in that biopsy - i do have an annual dot physical coming up and that will be in my hair. Last thing I need is to have that pop up on a drug screen!

Morning HM :cheers;

FWIW fentanyl doesn’t come up on a standard drug test.
Shocking that the flight from FLL to MSY is not full

Doesn't it stay in the hair though? That's what they test.

Did you find any real estate you found appealing on this trip? I know you had said the fly in area was not what you had hoped.
