Haze, it is really ugly, but it’s $2.2 Million worth of ugly. I figure we can have one helluva MumpFest, then I’ll take what I want (some of the art is cool) and sell the rest. Or maybe turn it into an ugly B&B?? I’ll let my people figure that out.

Heh. Some people do enjoy the ugly. You could probably make a pretty penny if you turned it into a B&B. Especially considering how expensive Key West is in general.
A Key West MMP-fest would be awesome either way.

Hey, I almost gave it to you again… er, so to speak…

No seriously, we LITERALLY live a 10 minute walk away from each other.

Well, since that’s the case, mousie, I say to you as well, I’ll be in the area (south of, actually) end of March to see family, but I’ll have some time to meet with you two. But yeah it’s a few weeks away. I’ll bring it up again when the time is closer.
I don’t know why, but this

Evil Fat Scarlett is sitting next to me on the couch and just farted at me.
Time to head to the gym.
[/QUOTE]
made me laugh out loud. I mean, what does a farting cat have to do with needing or wanting to exercise?
yes, gt, I will host tomorrow.
Fourth load in the washer. We’re watching *The Big Chill * (our first date movie) and generally not doing anything. Stoopit fridge still sits uncleaned.

I thought that time that you **did **was just between us…? 
OTOH… AFAIAC, **Haze **can take it from me whenever she wants!
Car is finally out of my driveway. More trouble than it was worth.
Kitchen floor is still sticky.
Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Darling, I always get what I want.
Wow, for about half a minute there was some serious rain pouring down. And now it’s stopped. It’s like 40F outside too - Chicago weather is insane. If the temperature drops below freezing after this it’s going to suck.
Woo hoo! Pencil me in for Monday, March 3, GT; I’ll start working out what my theme will be in the mean time. 
Back from Tarjay and the grocery store. Overspent, of course. And still didn’t find what I really wanted: one of those laundering bags for “unmentionables.” LOL So then I come home, do a search and find them for as little as $2.99 at amazon.com! I’ve been hand-washing my new bras, and decided that it was for the birds. So, mesh laundering bag will be ordered (I’ll probably get 2 or 3). Fortunately, we didn’t need much from the grocery store. So now we’re in for the day. I haven’t read the Sunday paper yet either. I’m just all off today.
Wish I was at Swampy’s, what with jambalaya, pulled pork and all. It really sounds yummy.
Hi, all. My weekend has been so boring, I’ve had literally nothing to mention. Except that snowbunny’s doggie boyfriend, Isaac, is an IDIOT. Yesterday morning Papa Tigs had gone out before I got up, and although I was expecting a FedEx from the office, I figured the dogs would bark at the FedEx guy and then go back to sleep.
Except that Isaac barked and barked and barked and barked until finally, muchly annoyed, I went to see what on earth he was barking at – was someone trying to break in or something? No, even worse – some idiot at the office had apparently required a signature on the package, but when his knocking didn’t get me out of bed, the EVIL FedEx man had the nerve, the sheer unmitigated gall, to stick his “sorry we missed you” hang tag on a small piece of glass at the top of the door! So Isaac, the rocket scientist, was standing there barking at that piece of paper stuck on the glass like it was one of those evil flying aliens from Star Trek that lands on your back and takes over your nervous system! Stoopid dog. :rolleyes:
The big excitement this weekend is that we’re off to a promotion party for one of Papa Tigs’ coworkers in D.C. this evening. Oh, yay, an entire evening spent with people I’ve never met. :rolleyes: again.
Dotty, when we lived in New Orleans, we once got 24 inches (61 cm) of rain in 24 hours, two-thirds of which fell in just four hours. It was truly like standing under a waterfall. Our house was 2.5 feet (~106.5 cm) above the street, but with the storm drains unable to handle that much water, our house came within, oh, about 1/4 inch or 1/2 a centimeter of flooding. We were actually kind of disappointed; we’d elevated all the furniture up on blocks, and hated the carpet so were hoping the insurance company would pay for a new floor for us. 
Anyway, your relatives have my sympathy – that much rain is almost inconceivable even when it happens to you!
Hugs, yays, boos etc. to everybody who needs them. I’d better to clean up in anticipation of our thrilling evening. :rolleyes:
I did get let out of work early, and it took an hour and 45 minutes to crawl the 35 miles home. Now it is really snowing like gangbusters, looks like 15 inches, at least, so far. I’m happy I have full cupboards and nowhere to be until Firday. Can I go to Key West, like, yesterday?

Let’s just all move there. It would solve so many problems.
Don’t. Wanna. Do. Work!
I’m in on the relocation to Key West. Not sure what I’d do for money; maybe someone will adopt me.
Went to work for an hour to make sure that some table changes had been done correctly. Developer called me just as I was arriving to say they were done.
Gotcha down for March 3, tarra.
Now I’m off to church.
Back after a bit to relax, I think…
GT
You don’t need money in Key West - it’s all margaritas on the beach and stuff. No, really, it is. I’ve been there. I know! 
Laundry is done for today. And I think I may have a pet sitter lined up - she’s close by and her rates are definitely better than boarding the dogs and cat. And less stressful for my critters.
Still haven’t cleaned the fridge. I think I used all my ooomph yesterday.
But my baby called - and she’ll be here on Thursday - yay!!!
Hi everyone.
Got up and went to breakfast today. It was alright.
Came home and have just been hanging out.
The sun is actually shining today. Temps are about high 40s to low 50s, but it’s better than rain.
Well, folks its been a delight hosting this week’s MMP. You’ve been a great audience and I wish I could take you home with me…
Seriously, this has been a lot of fun and I have thoroughly enjoyed playing in the MMP. Am looking forward to next week and thanks to all for being so welcoming and nice!!!
Wonderful as Key West sounds, I truly do have a Florida vacation planned Feb or March '09, only it’ll be to take my Mom on a visit to her sister in West Palm, with stops in South Carolina and Tennessee on the way back to visit assorted other relatives. My Dad is such a stick-in-the-mud that doesn’t really get the concept that travel can be fun.
I’m back home from TVLand. All in all, I was pretty crabby for the weekend. So I sent TVMan a cute e-card asking if we could have a do-over date when I go there wednesday evening. I took the Bubster with me for the weekend because I thought that TVMan would like a puppy visitor. However, I get this paranoia about something bad happening to Bubba if he’s not safe at home. I think that was part of my problem because I kept worrying that he’d get loose. And he was too nervous to eat his food all weekend so that upset me too.
I’m STARVING now. (It’s a good thing that Pizza Hut is on their way with dinner.)
