Home… We’re going to Cracker Barrel for supper. I like their Friday fish special.
When my daughter was in college, she and her friends would gather for Stitch and Bitch - altho mostly, it was to drink wine. She tried to crochet, but apparently she lacks the afghan gene.
So glad the weekend is here. I need it.
emily, I tend to do impressionistic painting because it’s much more forgiving.

Happy birthday MrsBumba!
My [del]partner in crime[/del] colleague and I were just about ready to duck out about noon today when the boss came to us with a need-this-yesterday problem. That took about an hour, but we still skipped out early.
The dealership still doesn’t have my airbag, so I get to sleep in after all tomorrow. I likely won’t the following Saturday though. Groceries are bought and now I’m just trying to figure out what kind of takeout sounds good. I’m thinking ribs from a barbeque joint I like.
lalalalala still at irk. Trying very hard to make my eight anna half today. These are long days here lately. I just got back from the Pubic Store looking for good filets mignons and there were none that I saw. I did find the potstickers I was looking for though not the right kind. Down here when something gets sold out they may or may not ever have it again. Another hour…I think I can, I think I can.
There was no getting out of the booze class tomorrow so I have to irk at least three hours. No happy at all about that.
Red sorry you missed out on the chiweenie. They are some cute little rascals. The right one will come along I’m sure.
What on earth do you do for a living to afford filet mignon?
Where on earth do you go to school?
Happy Birthday Mrs.Bumba.
I wish I could paint because I’d love to have painted screens.
Everybody in the house is snoozing, except me. I have clothes to take out of the dryer, and another load to put in the dryer. Since everybody is sleeping, I’ll wash another load and that is it - nothing more to wash. For now. Although I might make what is left into two loads. I like to bleach the washcloths and towels, the other whites are clothes and I don’t like to bleach them. Plus, I don’t use fabric softener with washcloths and towels. I don’t use fabric softener all that often, but sometimes it’s needed. So I’ll have two tiny loads instead of one normal one. Or I could let them wait a bit longer, but it always feels good to just get everything done. Or I could use OxyClean instead of bleach? See why I don’t get a damn thing done around here - too many decisions that don’t really matter. Just wash the damn clothes already!.
Aren’t y’all glad you don’t live in my head?
Long day. Tired. Barely skimmed. rosie’s .sig.
I do lurve me some catfish filets! Dindin was nummy. Firday’s in Lent are meatless at da cave so some type of fish is always on the menu. I’m thinkin’ next week’s selection shall be some type of salt water fish just for the halibut.
Sari I don’t mind the little dryer sheets but I don’t like liquid fabric softener. I think it makes fabric feel weird. Also, bleach always for white towels, washcloths, etc.
I don’t like dryer sheets.
I like bleach, but not always for my white sweat shirts. My mother used to yell at me for using bleach, and for using hot water. I still carry that in my head.
we got more snow
freakin’ weather
I bleach the towels, sheets and washcloths, therefore, I buy colors that fade nicely.
Carribean ribs, callalou and yellow rice with a dos Equis chaser for supper.
I’m sittin’ here yawnin’ my haid off. Back in my misspent youth days, I might have been wakin’ up from a “disco nap” about now and wonderin’ what to eat before gettin’ ready to hit the club(s) around ten p.m. Now, most nights I don’t even know when ten p.m. comes around.
I’m sorry if I sounded rude when I said I don’t like dryer sheets, this is why I should not post when I am irking.
Anyway, I don’t like the way they smell and it’s even worse because my dryer doesn’t vent outside.
I use very little fabric softener, if I use it at all.
I made the mistake of buying black towels, can’t bleach them. It leaves little red spots all over them.
I know what you mean Swampy.
If I tried to go out partying now it would probably take me a week to recover.
I ate meat; because I’m Lutheran and I can. And I laughed at the people lined up at the Long John Silver’s as I drove past. What can I say? I’m just mean like that.

So it costs nothing to enter & I have a 1 in 4.5 chance of it costing me almost $1000. :smack:
Have some milk while you [del]eat[/del] clear your cookies.
Harrisburg Community College offers a Brewing Sciences Program, it’s over 250+ hours long. Man, I wish it were closer.
So using bleach gives your towels measles? 
Gotta get up @ Dark:45 tomorrow for an all-day class.
I love halibut. Question: is poultry such as chicken defined as “meat” for Lenten observance purposes?
My DH figures the odds of winning the lottery are roughly the same whether or not one buys a ticket. 
Decent enough day at irk, except for sinus/upper throat symptoms. I’m trying to decide if it’s just allergies or if I’m getting sick. Miniature emperor handled dinner tonight.
I like that kind of painting. 
nettie, back in my mackerel snappin’ days, yes, chicken was meat. Whiskeypalians tend to follow similar rules, IIRC. Fish, other seafood, aigs and cheese were all Friday staples for us.
Canes lost. It’s a bad season when the Empty Net gives you better goaltending than the 2 guys ya got.:smack: But I’m getting a free section sofa from a hockey firend, so I got that going for me.
Well since y’all are Polish, she probably doesn’t have too much Afghan in her.:p;)
I do cartoons. You can decide whether they’re good or not.
I can still do it, and you aren’t that much older than me.
I made Thai curry fish, with lemongrass broccoli and curried quinoa for dinner. 
Honestly puzzled by why the flesh of a mammal or bird is meat, but the flesh of a fish is not. No offense intended, just not getting the distinction.
I think it has something to do with meat and poultry coming from warm blooded animals and fish being cold blooded, but I’m probably wrong.
I haven’t been a practicing Catholic since I was … I don’t know, it’s been a long time. I had Sah-son baptized in the Church about 20 years ago. But I was a lapsed Catholic long before that.
For me the distinction is that I like meat and poultry and I’m not that fond of fish, so eating fish is not so enjoyable. I wish I did like fish, just like I wish I liked most fruit.
However, I do love shrimp, crab, and lobster, but we didn’t have so much of that when I was a kid.
Lots of fish sticks and mac and cheese during Lent, and ::shudder:: tuna noodle casserole. My mother was so proud of her tuna noodle casserole and I used to gag on every bite. I think that was the only thing she made that I absolutely had to force down.
My friend made salmon cakes for lunch last week and they were actually pretty good. I think it was all the green pepper and onion, I could barely taste the salmon.
One of my ex’s loved to fish and he loved to cook what he caught. Had to choke down a few of his meals too. Mackerel was good, I think it was the sun fish that really turned me off to eating fish. That and one other one I can’t remember, a really oily fish.
He took me fishing a few times and got mad at me because I kept catching horseshoe crabs, like I had a choice in what was going to grab my bait.
Never worked that one out either- being vegetarian, for some reason the commonest response to “I don’t eat meat” is some variant of “Oh, so you want fish then?” and I have to explain that no, I don’t actually consider fish to be swimming vegetables.
The Catholic Church has decided at various times that pretty much anything that lives in or kinda near water is somehow not meat, including beavers and capybara.
Anyway, I should get dressed and go do something, the sun is actually on on my day off for once!
