y'know, it took me 183 steps just to cut that babe outta the bg n' that was doin' it the easy way!
plus another 7 steps on the initial paste-up that turned out to be a false start
by the time I finished, including saving 10 separate w*rkfiles (with the final product but not the false start), it was pushin' 400 total steps…
an hr to pick out the elements n' another 2 hrs pokin' around in PaintShop
but I like it…

onct upon a time, I dated a young lady who bore a striking resemblance …that prolly had somethin' to do with my choosin' that pic …she also ended up inspiring a pretty nifty lyric, even if I do say so myself, n' was undoubtedly too good for me n' smart to get away…

I think we been gettin' spoiled with the low numbers n' things are gonna start to dry up pretty soon
… yeah, I was thinking about that, but its been kind of nice in that we didn't really start the picture hunting until later on in the old Cuda thread…

the sunken patio drains into the sewage system which ain't been legal for a while
it was initially grandfathered in so we didn't have to deal with it right away, but we were eventually supposed to bring it up to code n' turns out we never got around to doing that
periodically over the years the drain in the back would clog n' we'd have to have it snaked out; last year it proved clogged beyond the capacity of the plumbers to clear it …so every time we'd get over a half-inch of rain, the patio would flood …weighing the thousands of dollars against alternatives, I bought a little sump pump for a hundred bucks or so n' have been pumping the rainwater out when necessary …seemed like a good idea at the time…
a coupla weeks ago, we got raw sewage bubblin' up out of the drain in the laundry room floor when we ran the dishwasher …solution: wash the dishes by hand…
now, after yesterday's heavy rains, we not only got a flooded patio but also a wet spot on the laundry floor, so obviously this is snowballin' beyond any simple tricks to get around it n' it's lookin' like we're gonna hafta get the situation resolved
this will undoubtedly prove expensive
bad enough, but there's also all kinds o' boxes o' junk stashed in the laundry; at least some of those have gotten wet n' will hafta be trashed, n' the rest will need to be moved (someplace) so the plumber will have room to w*rk
all of which means I got a lot to do that I don't feel at all like doing, n' this will not result in any renumeration but in fact quite the opposite
I'm not a happy boy…
… my condolences, and I can appreciate the growing impacts of taking the easier/procrastinated path along the way that have gotten you to this point…

didn't think I'd make it myself
I really didn't have any idea what to do with it …finally settled on the bg pic n' the tagline but it was dissatisfying …needed a babe or two to spiff it up …I'd by total coincidence just run across a whole buncha rearviews just a few days ago (in a pg#search, no less; compliments of The Chive) n' the redhead turned out to be a near perfect fit (hadda do some painting to get her to w*rk right, but not too much)
anyways, it came together n' I'm glad it's over with
