Midget! That’s so wrong! :eek: 
Good Mornin’ Y’all! Up and caffienatin’. YAWN 'Tis 66 Amurrkin out with a predicted high of 75 and the Apocalypse for the day. Seriously. One hunnert percent chance of rain, winds up to 75mph, chance of tornados, tstorms, doooooooooooooooooooooom!!! Or not. We shall see.
Ok, that’s pretty much all I got. I have to deal with TPTB for a while today. ICK! Now I need more caffiene and rumbly tummy wants to be fed. Then, alas, irk purtification must commence.
Happy Hump Day Y’all!
My eye dude said I’m in the very early stages and he said it could be 10 years or more till I need surgery. Of course, I know there are no guarantees in anything that involves the human body. We shall see how things go.
Good morning!! I’m enjoying leftover pizza for breakfast while Higgs chases the cat. Poor puppy can’t have any food or water, and I just know she’s all confused. We’ll leave in a couple of hours, and then her fun begins. Poor puppy…
Then I get to see the dentist - I should probably do something about this garlic breath before then. If all goes well, I expect to get to the office before noon.
We’re supposed to see 70s today - I may stop at the house on the way from the dentist to work to open a couple of windows and let some fresh air in. And that’s all the news that’s fit to print from FairyChatEstates.
How you doin’?
ETA: Blurf.
Up, caffeinated, off to irk.
Its going to be like 76 here today. I feel like I should go out and sunbathe or something, but I dont want to make small children scream in horror so I won’t.
FCM sorry about your cataracts. Yucky.
Oh and um BLURF, yeah , that’s it, BLURF!
I just want to say that [del]fartblossoms[/del] Brussels Sprouts are the one food substance even bacon can’t help.
Was that kosher bacon you used? :dubious:
Hi y’all! I’ve been knock down by a nasty virus and am just starting to feel better. I went to bed Sat at 3 pm and just know am really getting out (except for a few hours for work mon and tues).
Gotta read and catch up!
Gad you’re starting to feel better, Soapy!
I am not, not, not going to be chatty today. I’m going to get homework done! :shakes fists at shiny, sparkly internet distractions:
That recipe’s no good for me- I like brussels sprouts but not bacon. I’d better keep away from Swampy, or he might burn me as a heretic…
Blurfy day again, couldn’t sleep, then when I did finally get to sleep, couldn’t wake up. Now I’m all headachey and cross, and I have to go to the laundrette and I don’t want to.
Mrs. Plant v.3.0 is shiksa.
Try and keep up.
Oh, and in other news…
Today is my son’s 18th birthday! Holy cow- he’s an adult. This milestone actually worries more than any other- he can do things, legally, without permission from me. Tattoos, marry this girl he’s fallen head-over-heels with and who is very serious about him, join the navy, whatever. These are real decisions that are permanent and life altering and in a moment of impulsivity, he can go do it.
I don’t hink he will, but it’s disquieting that he can.
And he has to register for the draft. Not that I can expect him to be drafted anytime soon, but again, it’s that he might…

I will blaspheme too and admit that I don’t like bacon either.
My brussel sprouts recipie:
Cut off stub end and throw away.
Cut sprout in halves.
Chop up some onion
Brown some pine nuts it about 1/4 tbsp of buttah, set aside.
Melt 1/2 a stick of buttah in a fry pan.
Add chopped onion to pan
Place brussel sprouts face down in the buttah and onions
Put heat on medium high
Cover
Leave it alone for 8 minutes or so.
Check in to see if you need to add more buttah (I always add at least another 1/4). Brussel sprouts should start to looked burned, thats the way you want them.
Remove cover and continue to cook to your taste consistency.
Serve with pine nuts.
Die of a heart attack because you just consumed most of a stick of butter in one sitting.
My son is coming up on 18.
Lots of decisions to make, where to go to college, what to take, and he has to get a job now.
His Social Security will be cut off too, I wish it would last through college.
I like bacon, but it doesn’t like me. I was joking with my doc a couple years ago how it is a self-limiting condition. I know that eating three pieces of bacon will bring not only increased girth but intestinal doom, so if I have bacon, I know not to have very much of it.
The other day, I had some morning babble show on in the background. Think it was Rachael Ray, and someone was demonstrating how they basket-weave eight strips of bacon and bake it into a solid mat for making BLTs. I got queasy just thinking of that much grease.
Happy humping day all, no Apes that is not a permission slip 
Band practice was, well, wow. We just fell in and got really funky. Obscure New Orleans tunes, Herbie Hancock, SRV’s Couldn’t Stand the Weather etc. Was teh good. We are playing a show on the 16th. Eek that was fast.
Caffinating gotta get to work
Have a great day all
Jim

I’m pretty sure the correct order is:
#3,
#1,
#4 (x ∞)
(and eventually forget about #2 after a few visits to other ports)

It sucks having to talk on the phone all day when you have a sore throat and an earache.
I’m losing my voice and probably sound like I smoke 10 packs of cigarettes a day.
Two things.
- You have a 20 year old? Wow. You are old.
- I have known you people waaaaay too long.
