I just find it funny. Guy spends years of his life angering crocodiles, poisonous snakes and about a billion other things that could kill a person easily...... yet...... he is killed by something that is more or less thought of as docile. I remember "petting" stingrays at the aquarium as a kid.

Of course I wasn't swimming with them, simply had a shallow tank they were swimming in, reach in and touch them. They werent actually kept in that shallow tank for living from what I remember, it was like a little pathway. They would swim through that and reach a deeper wider tank.

Yeah I remember first finding out and being sad, feeling bad for his kids and wife. And exactly... it figures that out of all things, it ends up being a stingray.

Yep, just goes to prove a piece of business advice I received years ago, but I apply it to life as well as finances. Which is..... "Its the bus you DON'T see coming that you step in front of."

If you feel too sick your lovely friends will understand :).
Sorry to hear that. The same thing happened to me for my 30th. I had all these dinner plans and had to reschedule them all because I was horribly sick. Hope you feel better.

I ended up just going out with my friends anyways, we had a nice time
still kinda felt out of it, but it was not that bad

Congratulations!! :clap:
AHHHHHH CONGRATS!!!!!!!
:D

Thank you! It actually happened last night, but I'm just now getting around to talking about it on here since I had to help my parents move things out one storage unit to another (increased rate, long story) anyway the original plan was to do that yesterday, but the engagement party had to be planned last minute. It's still a bit surreal and all.

We went out to our favorite restaurant here in town, and then a brief walk through downtown. I love food and that place, but I was sitting there the whole time thinking "Alright, let's finish this meal already." We got back into the car and I said "I have to get something from my parents tonight." I drive to their house, almost shaking in nerves. I was extremely nervous, even though I knew she was going to say yes. It was the longest ten minute drive of my life. All of our friends and family are inside, but not even my parents cars are in the driveway. At this point, everything seems longer. My parents driveway became a runway, their walkway turned into a nature trail. We get to the door and I'm a nervous wreck. I purposely, but kind of not purposely drop my key, and grab the ring out of my pocket as I kneel down to ask. She starts crying, and I'm not much of a crier, but I start to cry as well. From the video, it was only about a second pause, but it seemed like five minutes until she said yes.

Yeah. Fortunately. Being killed by a crocodile would be more gruesome.

Someone at work who hates my guts for no explained reason, who is frequently rude and spiteful, who will not say good morning, good evening, hello or goodbye, makes up childish lies and expects I won't find out the truth from others and tries to micromanage my behavior.
It's been a trial, to put it lightly. Her hate is clear, but when I confront her and ask her what exactly the problem is, she won't say. I only see this person for maybe 15 minutes total a week, but she seems to go out of her way to make those the worst 15 minutes there can possibly be.
Everyone else at the workplace seems to have had the same problem with her at some point.
