A self-rescue MMP

I want one of these.
It can carry beer and toilet paper.

IME, when one asks “What was X thinking?”, the first word of that question could easily be left off and still be a valid comment (and the answer is usually “no”).

Hope Tracy has her head on a bit straighter than her mother.

I’ve managed a bit of productivity today. Ran errands, tried a modified version of Alton Brown’s chili recipe (and it’s not bad, might need a few tweaks to suit my tastes). The car has been fed, and my mechanical pencil has more lead and erasers (this is important to a Samurai Sudoku addict). Laundry’s current enough that I won’t need to run more until Friday.

The only really urgent household venture is running the dishwasher so I’m not facing a full sink after my usual busy Thursday. Sleeping at some point between now and 6:30 tomorrow morning would also be a good move.

I’m still waiting for the Housework Fairy to stop by my place and magic away the clutter and gunge. :smiley:

Please send her my way as well.

Had an interesting thing happen today. At the corporate coffee shop because I only had two cups worth at home and am outside as usual, on the Dope. Woman comes up to me and says…

W:“have you seen two men and a policeman?”

CK:“Could you be more specific, this place is really busy”

W: ::Tears::

Long story short

She had her cellphone stolen about a month ago, pawnshop called her and offered phone back for $220 presumably the price paid, pawnshop guy shows while we are talking, it is her phone but wiped, no cop. No money, no phone. I tell her to wait and meet PSG at the shop later so there are at least records, I also smell a rat because PSG tells her if the cops are involved “they will keep her phone for 3 to 6 months as evidence”

I take her to the cellphone store, my carrier as well and I know the manager on duty. MOD tells her “hell no, do not pay the guy a thing, he has to return your phone”. HPD is now on the case. Hope she gets her phone back.

Why do I get involved in this cr*p? Most people have the good sense to get themselves out of this stuff but no, not me. Sucker for weepers I guess.

Anyhoo, no good deed goes unpunished

This morning one of my bus drivers, in telling me she might be delayed this afternoon, told me she had to “go draw blood”.

I said just make sure you use a red crayon.

Yeah, she gave me a blank look too.

Oh hell, I thought it was funny, what else matters?

Kitchen is tidy, vacuuming is done, and I hemmed FCD’s chaps. It’s thunderboomery an starting to rain. I don’t know what I wanna do for supper - maybe I’ll go easy with mac-n-cheese?

**CatDude **- I cracked a smile at that… :slight_smile:

MOOOOOOM throw in some hotdawgs with that mac 'n cheese and a green sallit and you have a balanced, nutritious meal or the menu for the school lunchroom on Thursday if you throw in a carton of milk and an orange.

CatDude it made me snicker.

I got a haircut today.

Beat THAT for mundane and pointless!

I didn’t get a haircut today.

Neither did I.

I routinely metabolize oxygen. There, beat THAT.

Catdude made me snicker as well.

I didn’t get a haircut today either.
I didn’t get stuck by the fish hook that was caught in hell pups collar.
I haven’t killed anyone today either.

I hold my breath a lot.

I can turn beer into urine.

No, I was accused of being a [del]male[/del] dog. Just stated that the accusation might not be so far off. :wink:
I do not have fleas; or ticks for that matter, which is more that we can say about some other Mumpers!

We are not worthy.

Well FFS. I’m away from my desk for a minute and the electrician calls. And I didn’t notice, so I didn’t call him back until nearly an hour later. I hate playing phone tag.

I poop. According to a popular book everybody does

Aww, come on, everyone knows that girls don’t poop.
But I poop too. :stuck_out_tongue:

It’s really hot out today.

I spent the afternoon irking in an upstairs office. It was very hot in there. One of my coworkers was falling asleep at his desk. Hee hee hee :slight_smile:

I’m going silly from the heat. It’s nice though.
