Dunnow, but it’s not artificial sweetener.

You mean I’m not the only one who does this? 😃 The reason my alarm goes off at 5:30 is so I can spend the next 15 minutes continuing the story I was thinking the previous night.

I’d write these thought stories down, but right now it’s fanfiction and I’ve taken a solemn oath to never write fanfiction.

I’ve got so much to do today. I’d better get my butt off the computer and do stuff. 🙂

I can’t imagine anyone putting their butt on the computer.

There ain’t nothing wrong with fanfiction. Even if you dislike it, it’s good writing practice.

Howdy from da cave. After the doc visit I decided to just come on home rather than drive aaaaaaaaaaallllllllll the way back to irk. So I’ve been doin’ paperirk stuff from da cave. This mornin’ I had to drive over to large and in charge Sylvester, Jawja because a participant fell in the parkin’ lot at her trainin’ site. Poor thing went to the ER and has stitches on the left side of her forehead but is ok and can return to work on Wednesday which is her next scheduled day. Anywho, I had to go do an accident report and fax it in because it must be done within 24 hours of the accident. Thus I had to rush from there to the doc and well, I was tahrd so home I am.

Baked chikin with **N.O.T.** , baby carrots, steamed broccoli and rolls for dindin. YUM!

**BBBobbio** some folks computer ramblin’s read like they were typed with their butt. This is particularly noticeable on facebook.

**Swampy** don’t even get me started on Facebook ramblings. I’m been very close to deleting my page but I do like keeping up with the family stuff.  
I can do without the politics and religion.  
I’d never known my cousin is pregnant if it wasn’t for Facebook.

Did I tell every one I’m going to be a great aunt again?  
My younger niece is having her fourth and last in June - she’s not allowed to have any more. She’s having another boy, so I will have to change her ringtone from the ‘Theme to My 3 Sons’ to something else. Maybe with 4 boys ‘The Lunatics Are Running the Asylum’ would be appropriate.

LOL that could work.

My other niece is the ‘Theme from the Addams Family’.

Home, exhausted, and frazzled. The design project I’m working is a major pain in the patoot. At least we’ve agreed on the purchased components, so now I have to design a base plate and a couple of adapters - easy-peasy! At least in theory - we shall see how that goes.

Egg salad sammiches for supper, just because. And maybe leftover bean soup, too.

And on Saturday (I hope) we’re going up to North East, MD to look at a small RV. Small, like 22’. We’ve talked about renting an RV for a vacation, but doggone, rentals are really expensive! We figure if we find a good deal on a used RV, we’ll try a vacation on the road, and if we hate it, we sell it. Anyway, we shall see how it works out for us. Plus it’s not too far from my mom’s so we’ll pop in and see her and deliver a batch of knitting.

Such excitement in my life…

**der** rier ask what all you do with your butt **Midget**? Though playin’ the ukulele with your butt would be a viral youtube video.

Dindin is et and was mah-ve-lous if I do say so myself.

My drug of choice is endorphins; if I go too many days w/o a good workout, I get twitchy. ☹

I like **Apes** addiction but it sounds like **Alien** is suffering from that most dreaded Japanese disease lakanooki

Given how cold it is for our northern neighbors, maybe **Midget** is sitting on the CRT for warmth.
