Da cave is defilthyfied. Go Me!
BBBobbio when ya need squid ya need squid. I guess. 
db trust me OYKW knows how to uncross inappropriate appendages. 
I’s tahrd for real now! Think I may take me a nappy poo.
Later Y’all!
We had friends over for dinner last night and took the new dining room table on its maiden voyage. Think it was also the first time that we actually served anything out of our soup tureen.
My sciatica’s been screaming at me, so it’s off to consult a neurosurgeon in a couple of weeks. My doc’s current suspicion is scar tissue has grown where I had the disk surgery two years ago and that a minor “revision” may be needed to once again un-squish the nerves. Bah.
[QUOTE=TatersI was trying to enjoy a little peace and quiet, but the dogs are driving me crazy. OH MY GOD! IT’S A CAT! A CAT! A CAT! IT’S ON OUR FRONT PORCH! CAT! CAT! CAT![/QUOTE]
For us, our 65-pound dog (composed of 60 pounds of fur, five pounds of drool and a half ounce of brain) will be HEY! DADDY! LOOK! DADDY! LOOK! BUNNY! BUNNY! DADDY! THERE’S A BUNNY! IN THE NEIGHBOR’S YARD! DADDY! LOOK! PAY ATTENTION DADDY!
Speaking of the dog - I just need to try and predict when idiots will start trying to set fire to themselves with fireworks so I can get the beast sedated. The good news is that the Xanax from the vet works very well.
I’m on hold with U-verse trying to straighten out my online info. I already signed up for 3 months of free HBO! Just have to remember to cancel by Oct 1.
It turns out Dad did NOT have an ear infection. That’s the last time I let him self-diagnose! So he went through all that puking for nothing, poor thing. It turns out he has a lot of wax built up, and she tried to irrigate it out but it didn’t work very well. So I made an appointment with his ENT doctor, and we’ll go see her to clean out his ears.
At least he’s not sick, and we can go to the reunion! I’m looking forward to it.
Rebo glad your dad is not sick. As one who has a problem with excessive wax buildup in the ears (what? we needed some tmi!) I feel for him.
Time to make dindin! I’s hongry!
I was playing with some photos if anyone is interested. There are kitteh pics…
I need to tend to my posies, rosie’s sig, applied as needed.
Culinary Boy got his asbestos removal certificate yesterday. He goes to Capitol City of South-by-God Kakalak on Monday for his first job. He’ll be gone for about two weeks. He’s excited about everything but the Heat-n-Humidity combo he’s going back to. We just get the Heat-n-Mountain Muggy combo up here and we’re quite happily acclimatized. We’ve agreed that it’ll be better than Iraq in that a) daily showers are possible and b) no body armor. It’ll be worse than Iraq because of a) humidity and b) he’ll be working in the equivalent of a Ziploc bag.
I leave you with rosie’s sig because I skimmed.
Guess we all went to bed early last night. And, thanks to idiot Taz scratching himself at 3:45AM, I’m up early this morning. I may go back to bed, tho - we’ll see.
Happy Saturday! Wish I was still sleeping…
Oh. My. Og. 'Tis 0530ish, and I’m up deliberately. To get my fat ass outside. Running.
:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:
BBBobbio, what is wrong with you?!
I had a lie-in today because it’s Caturday and because I can. Yesterday I had a really bad headache all day and felt totally miserable so I was very glad when the day was over and I could head to my bed. This morning I didn’t want to get out of it so I stayed there just dozing, fussing the cat and listening to the birds outside.
It’s my only chance for a lie-in this weekend as I’m off to see my doting parent tomorrow so I’ll need to be up early for that. Later today we’re off to town to do errands and get some lunch, then home to drop off stuff and then we’re heading into the big city to meet up with a couple of ‘im indoors’ friends who I’ve never met. That should be fun - sober night for me, I’ll be on the diet coke as I’m driving in the morning and I need a good sleep and a clear head for that!
Apart from that, I have nothing else planned. Might have half an hour on the wii-fit, or maybe not. I might just put the gogglebox on for an hour instead and veg out, or maybe not. I just cannot make that kind of decision right now, I must be in need of more tea.
Good Mornin’ Y’all! Up and caffienatin’ YAWN ‘Tis 71 Amurrkin out with a predicted high of 97. We actually got some rain last night. It will be a nice day to hang at the pool which is the big plan. OYKW wants to go get Mexican for N.O.L. as he has a gnawin’ and a cravin’ for it.
I have N.O.T. cooked and coolin’ to make into N.O.T. sallit for brunch Sunday at the church house tomorrow and for Monday’s festivities. So, I figured I’d just make up a big batch of it this mornin’.
That’s all the excitatement from swampland. Now I need more caffiene and some brekkie.
Happy Saturday Y’all!
I dunno. Mebbe I’ll just have to go fishing tomorrow to compensate.
It’s been 3 hours since my half mile through the 'hood, and my thighs are already screaming.
:rolleyes::smack:
Bobbio, I can tell you’re a Yank if you’re considering running in July. :eek:
Damn cat woke me up this morning. Turns out critters love food. Then I decided I’d walk to the gas station for some reason, I guess because it’s only 78 (with a high of 99, swampy :p) and if I’m going to be outside, might as well be at 8:30.
There’s an [del]old[/del] mature gay men pool party in my neighborhood that I got invited to this afternoon, I feel like I should poke my head in, but at the same time, drinking beer at 2 in the afternoon around a bunch of scantily clad men seems like it would promote Bad Things. Decisions…
ETA: oh my god, if you use “quick reply”, it automatically shows your sig? Is this new? I haven’t edited that thing in… years.
C-bear - how long have you had this so-called cat? Also, what so wrong with “bad things”? It is a holiday weekend, after all.
If you’re not replying to a specific post, you can just start typing in the box, but hitting quick reply will automatically check the sig box since the last upgrade a year or so ago (maybe more - I’m so used to checking for that before I post now)
But just because I can . . .
Good morning everyone. It’s another beautiful day here and temps are supposed to reach mid to high 70s with maybe a rogue 80 degrees thrown in around some of the typically warmer spots.
The day will consist of yard work, along with a trip to the grocery store.
I’ll have tomorrow afternoon to myself since hubby is going golfing. I’m going to enjoy myself thoroughly.
My daughter and her sweetie are coming down for the 4th and we’ll throw meat on the BBQ and probably in the smoker too. I doubt we’ll do fireworks; or if we do; I’m not buying. Besides, the dogs hate them and I can’t be outside and leave the dogs inside to tear things up.
You go Bobbio! I need to get my fat ass in gear and start running again too.
I to was up at 5.30AM this morning. However only because I am an awesome wife and ran mr ems to the golf course. I have eaten brekkie had coffee and now I am going to dust, wipe the kitchen down real quick then run to Tar-jay for kitty food.
No real plans for the long weekend as we are flying to Oklahoma City to start work down there officiallly on Tuesday.
And in other frustrating news the relocation company has messed around for 3 weeks now and sat on appraisals and inspections etc. When they knew we were leaving on Monday they leave it til the last moment! Finally got all that info on Thursday - we needed them to see if we could afford to take the company buy out on the house which was ridiculously low. In the end we can’t afford it. So I spoke to the realtor the relo company was going to list the house with and she is coming round today to get us started on the short sale process. We are renting in OKC and we know this is going to take a while and we know our credit is going to take a massive hit but man we are upside down to the tune of 125k and he company wanted is to put in 95K between their offer and the ridiculous repairs they wanted done.
Le sigh…this completly goes against all my morals and ethics - I borrowed the money I am obligated to pay it but man…125k???
I am on the verge of a big *grrrrrr *right now. The couple that came over yesterday to look at the cabinets, the ones who said they’d call this morning, surprise, surprise, they haven’t called. We’ve been hanging around waiting instead of doing things we want to be doing. If I haven’t heard from them by this evening, I’m calling the other guy who’s been emailing me for 3 days. He definitely is interested. The first guy is a flake, IMHO.
I have washed my bed linens, so there’s that. I need to flip the mattress and remake the bed. I also think I’ll cook up the pile of 'maters into sauce. **FCD **is not happy - he wanted to go to the boat.
It’s hot hot hot out, which means my laundry is drying super-fast - yay! I need to go out front and water my flower boxes, but those petunias aren’t doing all that well. Stoopit squirrels keep digging and exposing the roots. *grrrrrrrr *again.
I should probably thaw something for supper, too.
Oddly enough, my sig box isn’t checked for quick reply - is it a User CP preference?
If you just start typing, it isn’t checked. if you hit the quick reply button, then it is checked. Which IMHO is silly, because you’d think, for quick reply, the quote message button would be auto checked. I did ask about that and was told “uh, that’s how it is in the upgrade - talk to the software creator” in more polite terms
OK, I just start typing. Weird.
While at the [del]torturer[/del] dentist Thursday, we thought the nerve may be dead because the tooth hadn’t been bothering me. Well, the good news is the nerve is still alive. The bad news is OW!
