We made it home before the storm. No chinese food though, just pizza and ice cream cake. My mother ordered butterflied shrimp for me, rather disappointing though because even though it was not asked for, they came drenched in hot sauce. I don’t mind a little heat, but this was outrageous heat, even after I blotted the shrimp. As well as shrimp has a mild flavor, so why would anybody want to drown out the flavor with hot sauce? If you are going to eat that much hot sauce you may as well put it on a cheap cut of meat because all you can taste is the hot sauce anyway. The temps have dropped down into the low 70s, thunder boomers going on now. ---

Howdy Y’all! We deheathenated (I ushed and didn’t trip, fall down, or set off any alarms so I call it a win), went to the Pubic Sto’ and got foodstuffs from the deli, came back to da cave, et, and had some quality cee-mint pond time. All in all a good Sunday I say. ---

Went on a beer run, had a martini. Making pork chops with Pig Salt with Sweet \*\*N.O.T.\*\*s, and green beans with garlic and Calabrian chilies. > [@The\_Vorlon](#): > > Same as **Beckdawrek** , it will yell at me when things exceed or go below set levels, thus precluding things like the dialysis center calling me with their hair on fire because I’m over 500.

> [@carnivorousplant](#): > > Save that we all have to go to work tomorrow morning, save for certain (insert your own modifying verb and/or insult here) bears. :dubious: A certain metallic rodent also can enjoy sloth on Moanday, **flytrap**. Napped and watched multiple M_A_S\*H episodes on Sundance TV (season 10, not as good as season 9, but pretty watchable anyway). Decided that Things Need To Get Done and went to the extreme of Making A List (for some reason, if I have a list, I have to do the things so I can cross them off my list…) Considering how much Pepsi I consume, I’m glad I don’t have the blood sugar issues **Alien, Bumba, and Red** , I’d probably be in my grave by now. Take care y’all and catch you on next week’s MMP. ---

Blurfage. I have walked the dog and loaded the dishwasher. I have more laundry to do and not much else which is fantastic. I don’t wanna go back to irk on Firday. Hubby is off to the doctor to get his hand looked at again. It doesn’t look a bit better to me but he says it doesn’t hurt as much as before. Sigh. Happy New Week all! Yikes. I posted in the wrong MMP. ---
