See, this is exactly what I mean! The first time I typed it, things jiggled, which is the truth, and nothing juggled, because I’m not all that coordinated, plus, I don’t have three of a kind and juggleing different things is way too advanced for me.
Can someone look sexy while brushing their teeth? It’s that mad dog look, isn’t it?
How can it not be true? They have a whole commercial saying it is! Plus little cartoon teeth showing how well the animated mouthwash works! Are you saying my TV is lying to me? That can’t be!
Swampy, guess what I’m having for lunch to-day?
Can I <snerk> and say IN BED! about it?
I had the rest of the pot roast with some carrots for lunch. Nuttin’ to <snerk> about with that. I didn’t eat it in bed either. Pot roast is not bed food. Neither is chili, so I guess we’ll eat in ACBG’s kitchen tonight.
I wish I had my own CBG to make me some chili. With Fritos, cheese and sour cream. You are going to have Fritos, cheese and sour cream with that chili, right? Sure you can have your cornbread on the side; but you need the others, too.
[food talk] I’m thinking about walking across the street to the Chinese buffet for lunch, if Missus shows in time. [/food talk]
And one can juggle very well with only two, if done correctly.

Can someone say “Bunk Beds”?
I’m making Mu Shu turkey (d*mned grocery store doesn’t sell ground pork shoulder, so I gotta substitute something else) for dinner tonight. At least I won’t have to floss after dinner, because I won’t have pork stuck between my teeth. There will be no <snerk>ing and saying of IN BED!, either, for I forgot to buy fortune cookies.
I’ve been flossing twice daily and rinsing with some kind of foul stuff with a peppermint flavor that barely conceals the horrible bitterness. It’s got a nifty chemical name like chlorohexy somethingortheother.
After spending an hour in the hygenists chair 2 weeks ago for a speacial little treat called a “debridement” is was determined that I had an 8mm “pocket” in my gums next to molar #16 (at least I think it was 16, I could be wrong) and she requested that I take daily antibiotic and rinse with the nasty stuff. I also have to floss but not with the skinny floss but with waxed dentotape which seems like it’s much too thick to fit between my teeth but somehow it always does.
I have to admit, my mouth always feels clean and the nasty bitter taste does fade after a while. Maybe I’m getting used to it.
This is the chance you take not hovering around here. I read Shibb’s fortune and think “bunk beds” and sure enough, there’s Kalley with the same thought. Only sooner than me. Dang.
I have a pork loin in the oven as I type this. I need to decide on sides - maybe carrots and boiled 'taters, and pears? Corn bread sounds good, too - wonder if I have the makin’s in the pantry?
Some bozo turned off the heat in our office on Friday, so it was under 60 when I got in - I don’t know how far under, because the thermometer doesn’t go that low. But I didn’t see my breath, so there’s that.
Thanks to our stellar insulation job, our house is cozy and comfy and all that. The furnace doesn’t come on nearly as often as it used to. But it’s still a bit chilly, since I keep the thermostat set around 62 or 63. So today’s a good day for a fire. I may stoke up one before my sweetie gets home - so he’ll have a warm welcome! hehehe
Oh yeah - I’m going to Houston in Feb. Any MMPers live around Houston? I’ll let you take me to dinner! 
Well, we are now, cause I’m going to the store to buy Fritos, cheese and sour cream. I am such a sucker for the power of suggestion. Sigh Hmmm… if we have Fritos, maybe I shouldn’t make cornbread. Maybe I’ll get one of those Bryer’s Vienetta Ice Cream things too. Ice cream after chili is soooooo good! Dang Homebrew! See what you did?
Shibb if Homebrew hadn’t distracted me with a shopping list I’m sure I coulda come up with some way to make “IN BED!” work with that. But now I’m hungry. I want some Fritos real bad right now.
Sorry to interrupt, but I’m pretty sure that you can’t actually call it “breakfast” if it didn’t have pork in it somewhere (preferably bacon, but I think other pork products slide in on a technicality). You have to call “morning food” or “a snack before lunch” or something like that.
Hey, don’t look at me like that, I don’t write these laws.
Try the Pork Egg Sausage and Pork… that doesn’t have too much pork in it…
Sorry - just not a fan of breakfast meats. Eggs are OK, but I really don’t like bacon and I only occasionally want a sausage link or two.
Guess I can’t be in your breakfast club then… sigh
I’m making pork chops for dinner tonight so there will definitely be some chunks to floss. There will be no Fritos, however. Do you know how many fat grams are in those??? :dubious: I’d be flossing for hours!!! Probably I’ll cook some nice fresh cauliflower. Heavenly.
I tried to make a new recipe for Pork Chops on Friday, but I had the heat up too high, so the outside was done before the inside. Ah, well. It’s just been one of those weeks where stuff I cook doesn’t turn out quite right. Just keep on plugging, though.
I woke up with a lousy cold yesterday, so my glorious three-day weekend turned into a two day weekend + sickness, which is not fun. Almost stayed home today, but I looked at email and saw that stuff had not run properly yesterday, so I had to come in this morning and fix. Probably for the best - it was one of those borderline cases. But I work from home tomorrow, so at least I can avoid infecting too many more people.
Wanna know why I’m working from home tomorrow? Well too bad if you don’t, 'cause I’m telling ya. I’m getting a new dresser delivered - yay! It’s very pretty - and from Ethan Allen, so that sucker had better hold up for the money my parents paid for it. That’s right - I’m 31 years old and my parents paid for my dresser. It’s alright though, 'cause it was my birthday present. I also have salvation army coming to pick stuff up.

Yes, it is. Not only that, but your kitchen cabinets are out to get you, too. They already have several hits to their credit.

Omigawd, first, fiRST, FIRST; it’s about a million billion degrees here today. I kept my receipt and so I’m returning this weather. We put up with too many months of soul-destroying heat to have to deal with even a hint during the middle of january. Argle bargle largh argh!
Kalley, did you try the strawberry toothpaste? I tried the apricot and it was pretty okay. Right now I’ve got some lavender mint from Burt’s Bees. Heavy on the mint and light on the lavender in my opinion. At least I get to spit in the most lovely shade of mauve.
I don’t floss in any flavor and you can’t make me. My dentist hates me because I come in and he pokes his fingers in my mouth and stretches to the ouch point because I have a small mouth (which is good or bad?). Then the hygienist comes in and scrapes for about five seconds and then I’m good for another two years. He says he’d have to start living in a box if all his patients were like me. Which is why I figure his recommendation to yank out my wisdom teeth was purely recreational. There ain’t enough pain meds in this entire continent for me to consider recreational teeth pulling. “They might become a problem in future” my Aunt Fanny.
I made cornmeal lavender cookies. They used two sticks of butter, the little greaseballs. But they were good. Then I made Alfredo sauce with shrimp and bacon crumbled on top. The shrimp were ginormous! Nothing got stuck in my teeth. Take that you dentist, you!
Ooh! Ooh! FairyChatMom, did you see that show on TLC I think, that was on redecorating America’s ugliest kitchen? Don’t tell me how it turned out! But, I saw the first half and boy that kitchen was retina searing horrible. Flocked velvet on the cabinet fronts, carpeting, giant bargello print wallpaper, brick walls and a diagonal line cutting across some cabinets in troll-like colors. Your kitchen coulda once been a contender!
Le sigh, I have to go to a faculty meeting and I just know one certain person is going to have fits over the fact that it’s being held the same day as the union meeting. I am no longer amused when this person gets angry and shakes and her eyes bug out of her head like a poorly bred chihuahua with a thyroid condition.
