An actual Monday morning MMP

Blurf.

Friend’s birthday party last night. Got home about 3.30- at least I think that’s what the clock said, it was getting a bit hard to focus by that point.

Was fun, but today I’m recalling why I’m Too Old And Boring to do that sort of thing. It’s 6pm, I’m still not really awake, and moving my head at any speed is not a good idea. Ugh.

For some reason the wireless network decided to die yesterday- it changed names, and now I can’t get back on it. I’m having to lug the laptop downstairs and plug it in… Oh the hardship! assumes pose of woe
I should phone the internet provider, but I don’t think my brain’s working well enough for that today. I’d probably get bewildered by everything they say, and accidently drop the router in the fishtank or something.

Anyway, happy birthdays to folks to whom it is relevant, and (((Apes))) Hope you get fixed fast and cheap!

Glad the board is back up and running. I was missing the South Jawja weather forecast but Mmmoooommmm tweeted it to me.

Stately Agony Aunt Manor has been cleaned. Lunch has been consumed. Next up is chopping vegetables for jambalaya and…

Dammit, I forgot onions.

I am not going out today. Jambalaya shall be onionless.

Then I have to send a couple of emails–a long-overdue one to SpazDad and one to Irish Storyteller–and update my budget. Then shall be Relaxation Time.

I’m busier on the weekend than I am during the week.

They won’t take me because I am pregnant. Minor med wont take me either. Literally the only option on a Sunday is the ER. :mad::frowning:

{{{Apes}}} hope everything is ok.

BTW Butters 'tis a balmy and hyooooooooomid 86 Amurrkin out with a predicted high of 90 for the day. I should be out by the pool but don’t really feel like it right now. I did however relent and turn the a/c on. I try for as long as I can each year not to turn it on because once it’s on, it pretty much stays on for the season. Have I ever mentioned that I’m really, really, really cheap? :smiley:

Spaz as long as you have spicy snausage for the jambalaya you can go without onion. IMO, jambalaya must be spicy.

You’re welcome Taters! Hope you’re havin’ a great day!

Happy birthday Taters!

Sorry April to hear of your plight and hope you feel better soon :(. Sorry money is so tight for you as well. Hope it all works out and that maybe we can all have a good laugh about it in the future? Eh… maybe not. But regardless, I wish you better days soon!

Swampyyyy… I never understand anything you’re saying. But I love reading your posts.

Today I got the lawn mowed and 10 bags of leaves and grass collected all up. Still have another few bags worth to get but… another day. There’s only so much you can fit on a day’s gay agenda, you know? I still need to get off my butt and clean the kitchen. sigh Maybe also move a few more things into storage tonight.

I ended up getting onions anyway because I didn’t have any chicken broth, either. Why do I always forget the chicken broth until the second I have everything out on the counter? :smack:

Oh well, my chores are 99% done, so vegging shall commence.

You might want to rethink that. :slight_smile:

What? It all makes perfect sense to me! :smiley:

I hear boom booms in the distance. The weather PTB have issued a “significant weather advisory and thunderstorm watch in effect until 7:00 P.M. EDT.” Well, hawt dawg, a chance for rain (drizzly outside now)/tstorms/apocalypse before seven o’clock!

I did go out by the pool for a while but came in when it started to get cloudy. The water temp is a chilly 64 Amurrkin but felt kinda nice bein’ as the air temp is 88 Amurrkin.

Somebody be a dear and translate all this for $2.99. :smiley:

Spaz you are my culinary muse. The cookin’ of jambalaya for actually Tuesday night’s dindin is under way. It will not be served until Tuesday because tomorrow night is men’s night over to the church house. Due to the fact that there are no flies on da bear, steaks are marinatin’ and beer is chillin’ in anticipation of tomorrow night even. Still, you inspired the makin’ of jambalaya so go rest upon your laurels oh culinary muse! :smiley:

He heard thunder. There is a severe thunderstorm warning issued for his area un 7pm. Yippie, rain!

He tried chilling by the pool but the sun went away and the pool was 64 degrees Fahrenheit. The ambient air temperature was 88 degrees Fahrenheit

I’m bilingual, I can speak, understand, and read suthern jes fin.
It’s the writing that gives me pause.

Swampy hears thunder in the distance. The weathermen (Powers That Be) have issued a “significant weather advisory and thunderstorm watch in effect until 7:00 at night, East coast time”.
Well Hot dog! (gee willikers, halleluia. goody goody gumdrops, yippee, or other exclamation of your choice), a chance of rain ( it’s sprinkling rain now)/ thunderstorms/ apocalypse before 7:00.
He went oout by the pool for a while but came in when it got cloudy. The pool water is 64 degrees fahrenheit, which is kind of chilly but not so bad when the air temperature is 88 degrees fahrenheit.

Could somebody please translate this for 2.99?

I rest my case.

Home from the ballgame. We lost, 4-3. But the skybox is *niiiiiiice *- plus there was food. Now we’re home, chillin’.

I’m thinking supper will b sammiches. I don’t feel like cooking.

Well I solved the mystery of why the OAOASO was talking about his father.

Seems his son was using the phone and answered my text.
So it is the OAOASO who swallowed some gas and is feeling sick.

JC on a pogo stick, almost as bad as the night I got pulled over driving his deceased father’s truck and I freaked out the police officer by telling him I had just talked to the dearly departed that morning.

Haha you guys are great. :slight_smile: Thank you.

Dinner has been prepared and consumed. Consisted of red rice with black beans, a side of frozen peas and corn mixed and steamed, and chicken breasts cooked on the George Forman grill covered in all manners of some Penzy’s spice mixes and blackened to a crisp on the outside but still juicy on the inside.

A good quick dinner :slight_smile:

I’m bummed a friend of mine didn’t end up hanging out with me today as we had made plans, but, such is life.

got called in to irk for no reason. Nerves are now shot, after spending a third of my day off stressing.
Happy Birthday Taters!!!

Oout? So you’re Canadian, eh?

{{{{{Apes}}}}}

Just got off the phone with Irish Storyteller. An hour and some change call as he caught me up on Psycho Bitch and Her Psycho Ways. There is a court date Friday and I anticipate another hour-long call catching up on that.

Meanwhile my email to my dad bounced back. I’ll have to find where I wrote down his cell number. At this rate I may just show up at his door. I have the keys.

Impressive Apes and Sari! :smiley:

Jambalaya for Tuesday’s dindin is now made. The threat of rain/tstorms/apocalypse appears to have gone away as it it now sunny out. On the plus side the temp is now 76 Amurrkin with a nice breeze so I actually turned the a/c off! Unheard of for da bear! It feels good with the windows out and the ceilin’ fans runnin’.

So, who’s up for tomorrow’s MMP? Shall we go with the next person to post?

Jambalaya. Ham, shrimp, okra or am I thinking of something else?
