Maybe its alien pods growing a duplicate of you with plans of world domination? Not that you don’t have your own plans of world domination but aliens always think they can do it better than us.
Actually, kind of. My brother (denga) was more the gum person and the several years he “saved” his old gum into a ball. We thought this a little strange but since he was an “artist” we just went with it.
Cool story! Usually with my mothers relatives the story ends with “alcohol was invloved”.
I have dried beans in the pantry and a ham bone in the freezer. I think I shall follow your suggestion this weekend.
They get along great! By which I mean, I keep them separated … 
Nikki tries to bat at the snake’s head if she sees him, whether out of instinctive fear or the general kitteh “ooh! twitchy toy!” play drive (to be fair, a moving snake and a string being wiggled look a lot alike) and while I keep her claws trimmed* she could still easily snag him. Ball pythons are shy as hell and duck their heads back if threatened, but I’d hate for her to piss him off into a strike.
Happy Thorsday!
It’s friggin’ cold outside, or at least it was when I put the dog out this am and he decided to wander further than normal.
Nothing much to do today except irk.
I’m watching (or trying to anyway) *The Ghost and Mr Chicken *
Who knew that both Darrin and Aunt Hagatha at in it? Mrs Kravitz too
One thing about my job, if I am sitting here doing nothing waiting for the phone to ring it will never ring. Let me start to do something or get interested in something on TV and the phone just rings ad rings.
Ruble who told you about my plans for world domination???
I tell ya, you can’t trust anybody to keep a secret anymore
Two people can keep a secret if one of them is dead.
Shhh, don’t let anyone know this, flytrap Arsenic is good for you, you should take lots of it
I was thinking about the snake blankey; just how do you get snake into it? Door one hold it open at one end & he crawls through? Do you feed him thru like a hoodie that the drawstring came out of? Is there a zipper on the other side that we don’t see? 
C’mon dopers, help fight the ignorance!
Yeah but now everybody knows :mad:
I need to get up and get moving.
Too much to do today.
Up and caffeinated, off to do laundry and grocery shopping before tailgate time.
I twitched awake and scared the hell out of Bella at 0400, then Gordie sang the Song of His People at the Boxer Twins at 0700. I slept till 9 today.
Pretty cool, Spaz!
I just had a liverwurst 'n pimento cheese sammich for N.O.L. What? I like liverwurst! Not to worry though. I have plenty of mints available. Liverwurst breath is not pleasant for anyone.
Dindin tonight shall be Mexican takeout. I put in my order for a beef and a cheese enchilada with refried beans. OYKW is good with this cause he knows if I’m makin’ cheese thangs he gets some for his very on. The spoiled brat! 
spaz, I like your BIL’s art!
spidey, I’m thinking that you’d pull the snake sweater on the occupant like pulling on a pair of nylons.
swampy, most of us should be so kind as to keep breath mints in our desk drawer. 
Our department’s ugly sweater was merely tastefully tacky compared to the ones that some of the departments did. I have to wonder how they were put on, considering that some of them had more crap than a trailer park Christmas tree attached.

I enrolled in the MDExhange
I got an email the other night telling me I have an important message and to log in to the exchange to get it. I got this in the middle of the night when the system is down - it is down from midnight to 6am everyday for maintanence
So I had to wait to read my important message.
So I go out to see what my important message is, just that I have enrolled - whatever.
Then I get an email from them telling me that the the original email was sent in error and to ignore it.
Ok fine whatever because the world is just full of competent people who know what they are doing
NOW
TODAY!
I get another email telling me the second email telling me to ignore the first email was sent in error and I need to contact the exchange
TODAY!
is the last day for enrollment
and of course the lines are backed up and the hold times are forever and I have no idea what the problem is
I swear all these assholes need to be fired and they need to get some people who know what the hell they are doing in there.
Now I have no clue if there is a problem or not
oh fuck those assholes
There has to be a special hell for them
Well that went quicker than I thought it would
No problem, I’m done I can ignore the emails
The dishwasher has done its thang, and now it’s open so the dishes can air dry. I watched most of Steel Magnolias, but it was on commercial TV so it kinda sucked, and not just because of the commercial interruptions. I worked on my latest lap robe - it’s in pinks, white, and a deep red - it’ll be purdy! And I raked up the leaves that were out of the path of the sucker. It’s not even 40 out there, so I was quick - luckily, it was a small patch.
I called **FCD **- he’s stopping to pick up some ham for the soup. I have the ham bone, but I like chunks of ham also. And I’m making it like my MIL does - with canned 'maters along with the onions, celery, and carrots. Supper will be yum tonight. And I’m thinking tomorrow will be N.O.T. soup because it’s gonna be cold then also.
Productive for a lazy, cold day. Go me!
Legs might kick but I’ve yet to meet a pair that had teeth. :eek:
MOOOOOOM that soup sounds good. I shall have to try makin’ ham ‘n bean soup like that. I’m guessin’ it’s all pretty much eyeball as to proportions cause that’s how all the good soups are.
I feel right productive irkwise. I even have two appointments set up for Moanday. I’m talkin’ Moanday the week of Crimmus even. Go Me! [del]Minions[/del], Assistants and I have appointments set up for Moanday and Tuesday the week after Crimmus, so no flies on none of us! We good!
**swampy **- Thisis my recipe, altho I corrected the last sentence in step 2 to read *surface *rather than service. I’ll just dump a can of drained petite chopped 'maters in with the other veggies. Yum!
I woke up with a nasty toothache. So I took a Vicoden and went back to sleep for a few hours. Now it hurts even more. So another Vicoden which means no driving this evening. Which means no chorus party for me.
yes, there are people who would drive for me, but none with a vehicle that can transport the Jazzy.
eta, no they can’t just drive my car - the passenger seat does not have enough room for my fat ass and long legs.
Which Darrin? Your answer will determine whether or not I want to watch it.
Darrin number two. I knew that off the top of my haid. Make of that what you will. 
I honestly never noticed much difference between them, except last names.
I always wondered if Samantha became bored and switched Darrin’s body with some other guy.
