[QUOTE=swampbear]  
Earplugs too! Seriously. See, I have a slight hearing loss (What? **I said, I have a slight hearing loss!** 😃 ) and years ago I was told that wearing earplugs while mowing, weed whackin’, using the blower and all that there good stuff would be a good idea cause not doing so could lead to more problems. Just sayin’.  
[/QUOTE]

I mow the lawn, whack weeds, and snowblow with the I-Pod jamming and the earbuds in place.

Probably nullifies that whole ‘protecting your ears’ theory, huh?

**rigs** it’s none of us males here, right? I’ll bring Fudgsicles all summer long…

Pizza’s ordered. I’m hungry.

oops- I meant by the “none live here” to refer to the MMP. Yes, I live with the One.

But you can bring all the Fudgsicles you want!

And Dreamsicles? Man, I haven’t had either one of them in a LONG time. Guess what’s dessert after lunch tomorrow?

Fudgsicles, yum! Gotta buy some.

A very odd thing happened this afternoon. I looked out the back door and saw drops of water on the windows. And on the steps and sidewalk. I think someone broke the sky.

Good thoughts and prayers heading your way, **tarra**. Let us know how things are going.

Yes, swampy, pretty much **Rebo’s**  **NOT** wedges (slightly different spices). I usually make them plain (not even olive oil), but thought I’d spice them up a bit. Yummmmy.

Whap the man upside the head with the proverbial wet trout, **rigs**.

Well, back to cleaning up.

**Herbs** you’ll be in my thoughts and prayers tomorrow.

I haven’t had a fudgsicle or dreamsicle in Og knows how long! Course now thanks to two certain cool kids _who shall remain nameless_ I’m now jonesin’ for both.

In other news, I had me a bubblebath whilst sippin’ on a glass of wine. I am now all relaxated and workin’ on sleepification.

BTW, JoeDawg’s daddy called me and thanked me (again) for what I did today. He also promised me that he’d have us over for dinner and actually cook _all of it_ (inflection his) real soon. 😃

I’m afraid if I started to beat him, regardless of instrument, I would not finish until he was dead. It can take an awful long time to kill someone with a wet trout.

But by god, it would feel good…

(no worries, Mods–no fish in the house, more’s the damned pity).

ooh, Dreamsicles–nummers…And Creamsicles, too!

I don’t think I’ve ever had a Fudgesicle or a Dreamsicle. I did have Ginger chicken stir fry for dinner.

**rigs** , glad it ain’t me. Hope it gets better, though.

**gt** , it rained here last night. Of course tomorrow we have a ozone advisory. Wonder if **kai** needs a butler?

**Herb** , I’ll keep you in my prayers.

**Lemme** , I’ll pay you to take my [cat](http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e260/dogbutler/Picture002.jpg). At least she isn’t hurling precious bodily fluids at her roommates today.

Ya know, **doggio** , you have a genius for capturing Lucretia’s evil looks.

Is it legal never to have tried Fudgsicles? They’re pretty much the best thing ever.

Did I tell you I celebrated the rain (well, slightly dripping sky) by going to get some ice cream and eating it while walking around the block? 1/2 banana and 1/2 dark cocoa. Yum.

Next load of laundry is in the dryer. There are a couple loads left for tomorrow, but I have clothes to wear for the week. Yay!

That’s what my Simon is SUPPOSED to look like, but he weighs an additional 20 pounds. (the cat lives to eat-he’ll eat anything and constantly–I no longer believe people who tell me that cats are finicky. BS. This is my second garbage disposal feline).

**GT** –yay for clean clothes!

Who is **Herb** and why are we concerned? (I musta missed something)

**herb** = **tarragon918**. She’s having her thyroid looked at tomorrow.

Lucretia keeps her girlish figure because hating burns a lot of calories.

**Tarragon!** My best to you on the morrow…

Funny, I’ve hated all day, and haven’t begun to burn off the halfpan of brownies I consumed in my snit. Must pay to be feline.
