AnthroCon 2009 - A Murry, Purry, Furry MMP!

I decided to dump Facebook. It was more annoying than fun. Kinda the same reason I rarely look at LJ.

Teh Intrawebz aren’t as much fun as they used to be…

aw, :(, and I just bought you as one of my pets.

I’ve never done the Facebook thing and even though I’m registered at LJ never go much. Speakin’ of which, one thing I forgot what with new 'puter and all, is I no longer have a direct link to Agony Aunt Ryl. Hint…Hint…

All the yahd work is done! MOOOOOOM I know what you mean about this July weather. It’s only 85 Amurrkin here. In south Jawja! In July! With low humidity! I mean, we chainsawed a biiiiiiiiiiiiiiig limb and drug it out to the alley plus I mowed, edged, and used the blower to clean up two yahds and did not even break a sweat! In south Jawja! In July!

Now I’m on a cookin’ frenzy. Not as nuts as Muppet’s but still a frenzy. I have three slow cookers goin’. One has a roast for tomorrow’s dindin. One has some chicken boobs and laigs for another night’s dindin. The third has a small ham for yet another night’s dindin. Actually I figure they shall be entrees for dindins all week. Tomorrow will be the big one, however. I ate either leftovers or sammiches all last week and ol’ y’all know who was in Nashville at trainin’ so he ate restaurant food all week. Thus, we are in need of home cookin’. So tomorrow, there shall be a pot roast, squash, corn, fried okra, cornbread and a peach cobbler. It’s also men’s night at the church but we need home cookin’ so we’re blowin’ this month off. MMMMMM… I’s hongry just thinkin’ about it.

doggio glad inventory we went well.

mmmmmmmmm’s glad you’re still employed and your dindin does sound nummy.

I think I might be hongry.

I wonder if CutiePie is still lyin’ there waitin’ for TVMan to wake up. :smiley:

I was a pet??

The main reason I quit was that some of my friends used FB as their political forum. Frankly, I didn’t want to read their craziness every time I logged on. Everyone is entitled to their opinions and I’m entitled not to have to see their radical rantings if I don’t want to.

Honestly, I’m getting closer and closer to just being web-free. Well, not completely - I still like shopping on line, I pay most bills on line, and I have to get my daily Dear Abby fix, but the social stuff is becoming less entertaining.

Guess I’m getting crabby in my old age…

Well, swampy, I lasted about 40 minutes and then Mother Nature’s call was too loud for me to ignore!:stuck_out_tongue: Besides, I finally got up at 12:40 and we had a party to go to at 2:00 for which I still had to go buy a gift bag and tissue paper.

FCM, I know what you mean about the people’s personal issues. I ‘hid’ one of my facebook friends from my news feed because I didn’t want to hear the same crap over and over again. Otherwise, I think facebook is pretty neat considering the people that I have become reacquainted with.

As you might have guessed, we are back from the party and I am wondering if I should order a pizza or figure out what the mystery frozen things are in the fridge.

ETA: If you ever get the chance to try a chocolate cake with whipped cream icing and strawberry mousse filling from BJ’s… Don’t. The cake and icing were ok, but something about the mousse just lingers, and not in a good way.

Safely in Bahston. Hotel is right near Old Ironsides. My feet hurt from all the walking, and I’m a walking dude.

Must veg now; tomorrow will be busy.

Yay for a safe trip to Bahstan BBBobbio.

CutiePie you gave somebody a gift bag full of tissue? Well, I guess it’s sump’n one can’t have too much of. :stuck_out_tongue:

I ended a sentence with a preposition! The Grammar Nazis will hunt me down! :eek:

I shucked, silked and cut off a dozen ears of corn. That’s work y’all! Plus I began the process of turnin’ four quarts of dill pickle chips into bread and butter pickles through the magic of garlic and sugar. I think I put this in the recipe blog but I don’t remember. Nor do I have the energy to go look. All this yahd work and domesticity has me all tahred.

I am working on the new MMP - I’ll have it up before “lights out” tonight

And thus endeth another weekend. I’m going to knit a bit, then crash. Nighty-night to all!

Just checking in to say hi! Borrowing another apartment’s internet. Just had a bunch of family stop by…

Might be able to check in during the week. If not…have a lovely week everyone!

I’m just about packed for my trip to Texas. All that’s left for me to put in the suitcase is the stuff I use to fix my hair in the morning (straight iron, curling iron, hairspray, smoother, comb and brushes), my razor, my cell phone charger, a shirt that’s drying right now, and a pair of comfortable walking shoes.

I’m really “meh” about this trip. Normally, I would be a little more excited, but it seems the evenings may not be mine and I kind of resent that. The conference is long, there’s dinners after the conference each day, plus I apparently have to attend an after hours meeting. Bleh…

Oh well. I return on Friday, I work for four days after that, and then I’m on vacation for two weeks. I’m really looking forward to that.

I can understand not wanting to see stuff that annoys you on Facebook, **FCM. **You can hide the people’s posts that you don’t want to see, though. I’ve done that with a couple of people.

Glad you made it safely to Boston, Bobbio. By this time tomorrow, I’ll be in San Antonio, already checked into my hotel room and probably looking for some kind of dinner.

The new MMP is up and I am going to sleep.
