Zombie mode continues. We went to bed around 11 last night. Higgs started barking at 3. I got up to let her out - she scratched the back of my leg, so I had a bloody mess to clean up. I’ve been up for 3 hours after maybe 4 hours of sleep. I’m pretty sure I’m going to die of exhaustion. \*\*FCD \*\*got up with Higgs and I tried to go back to sleep with no luck. So my sweetie’s back in bed and I’m wandering around in a haze… _\_ Both dogs are outside at the moment. Ziva hasn’t come out from under the bed since last night - I need to put a litter box and a bowl of water in the bedroom. If she wants to eat, she can venture out. I’m going to have to get something to help me sleep tonight or I won’t survive the wedding tomorrow. Melatonin ain’t doing it - its expiration date was Dec - can it lose potency that fast?? I can’t brain today. Happy Firday to those who can. ---

What does it say about me that most of the jokes are about passing gas and have many likes, and my comment, “Greta Samson realized that she, too, was becoming a burden to her parents” has none? Am I a sick person, or are most Facebook denizens illiterate? :rolleyes: ---

**Rosie** I went and liked. I’ll have a dry martini, shaken, not stirred, chilled glass, and two blue cheese stuffed green olives. Mowage of yahds has been achieved. Freshly laundered sheets are on the bed and a load of towels is in the washer. Proud of me **MOOOOOOM**? 😃 ---

[quote=“dogbutler, post:18, topic:723139”] So we have a scary faerie and a non scary faerie in the MMP. We can call you **Fluffy**. 🙂 Ha! Actually the name’s The Evil Dark Faerie, but when I created my account a billion years ago, I thought that was too long for folks to remember. Come to think on it, **Fluffy** seems rather fitting. It’s been a busy week here at work, so almost no SDMB for me. I’m only just now getting my lurking done! ---

I do have 2 cats and a dog, but my daughter is here with her dog - a male pug named Cozmo who weighs almost twice what Higgs weighs - he’s a big-ass pug! Not fat, just BIG!! I’ll put a pic on FB shortly. I’ve got the smoker smoking 2 chickens. MIL and I have already been to the Amish produce stand, and we’ve all had lunch. I’s still exhausted, but I don’t foresee any nappage. Oh well. \*\*swampy \*\*- I am properly impressed. You are well and truly prepared for retirement! 😃 ---
