A dollar and a tiara?! I damn well better get more than that.
Frankly, I don’t buy Lotto tickets on a regular basis. Just every once in a while when the jackpot starts to climb. I mainly stick to our state Lotto; I may purchase a Mega Millions ticket about twice a year. I never spend more than $5.00, so it’s not like I’m flinging money away.
I noticed the Dunkin Donuts ads when y’all were talking about er…glazed parts. I thought it was funny.
I made a pot roast on Saturday. It was dee-lish. On Sunday I made Maryland style fried chicken with gravy. It was also very dee-lish. The hubby was raving about that. I told him I’d made it before, but it had been quite a long while.
Good news on the son’s broken glasses. They’re still under warranty, so he’s getting a new pair for free. Thankfully, he still had the lenses.
Just returned from meeting with my daughter’s class advisor. He seemed like a very nice person, but was awfully nervous around me. I don’t know why. He had a hard time making eye contact with me. When he pulled up my daughter’s math grades, I noted aloud she needed to buck up and improve. He told her he was sorry and that he didn’t mean to get her in trouble. I told him there were no worries, I wasn’t a parent who went nuts, but that I knew what she was capable of and I just wanted her to do well. I told my daughter to tell him I don’t bite. He pointed out the syllabus for her advisory class, which include a great big job shadowing thingy. He also showed me where I can check out her grades on-line. Overall, she’s doing well, but apparently has some missing assignments because she stayed home one day. One of her teachers didn’t give her credit for an assignment she turned in, so she needs to speak with him about it. She also missed a lab on the day she was absent, so she needs to talk to her teacher about somehow making it up. It was an excused absence, so it shouldn’t be an issue.
I need to make dinner now. I’m going to make some jambalaya. I’m cheating and using Zatarains, but I’m including smoked sausage and chicken. Should be tasty, if not filling.
Just got back from the worst intramural volleyball game ever. Our team won, but it sure didn’t get much help from me.
Partly because my glasses are broken now. Right before the game, one of the lenses popped out and decided that it didn’t want to be held prisoner in my glasses any more. Add that to the list of things that I have to get taken care of tomorrow.
PEOPLE! PEOPLE! PEOPLE! The MMP slipped to page two! This is totally unacceptable. It must not happen again. Do I make myself clear? Good!
Where are you goin’ today? Why are you so dressed up? You goin’ to a funeral? I’ve heard it all and ain’t been at work 30 stinkin’ minutes yet. Yes I am all gussied up. Yes it is a black suit with a white shirt and black tie. Also a black belt, black shoes and black socks. One must properly accessorize these things. Yes, I am going to a funeral. No, I won’t be gone all day. Geez! You’d think this place would fall apart if I wasn’t here at all times! You’d also think these folks have never seen me all cleaned up before. So, we’re business casual except when we need to spiff up. I spiff up when I need to. Heck, I own a bunch of suits. I like suits.
The great place to buy suits is having a sale. They have such nice suits! No, I don’t need any new suits. But they have nice suits! Ok, this little conversation has been playing in my head for a couple of days. I don’t need new suits. Not at all. But I could just go look. No harm in that. Until I start drooling over suits and hand my MC over to the salesperson, that is. No, no. Best I stay away. But they have such nice suits!
That’s the problem with stores that put suits on sale. Just how many suits does the average guy need? I’ve got two that fit well. Besides, I only wear them once or twice a year (not at the same time, o course. That would just look silly.)
But they have such nice suits! And it has been a while since I bought a new suiit.
Alright enough of this. What I want to know from donkeybear is, are you preparing for next week? You’re up you know. We need to see what our talented youth can aspire us to hijack to heck and back.
Mr. Anachi says you’re thirteen times more likely to get struck by lightning than to win the Flawduh lottery. I’m not sure what that means when I consider that we are the lightning capital of the country.
But taters that’s a genuine dollar that once belonged to G.W. hisself and the diamonds in the tiara are fereal multi karat beauties.
swampy, buy a new suit and donate an older one to charity. You’ll feel just swell!
Last night was chicken fried cube steaks and zuchinni squash. Tonight will be broiled boneless skinless chicken breasts. I baste them with a combination of red wine and A-1 sauce seasoned with garlic powder and black pepper. They are totally nummy. I think some brown rice would go real good with that.
I played chicken with a Hummer this morning. See, it was on the wrong side of the parking lot, when there was plenty of room to drive on the correct (right) side, and I was already pissed off at the old man in the enormous Crown Victoria that can’t comprehend a ONE-WAY sign (not to mention a DO NOT ENTER), so I stayed right where I was and refused to veer to my right into the (albeit empty) parking spaces just so this fuckstick with his giant silver surrogate penis could drive wherever he wanted.
I’m thinking that maybe I’m a little cranky today.
And Puggy’s idea is absolutely brilliant, swampy–you get a new suit, and you did something that will get you right into Heaven.
eleanor, I think swampy meant the thread had slipped from the first page of thread lists (not a good thing) not that the MMP is up to page 3 (a good thing.)
Heh, the google ads are talking about untraceable essays. I wonder, is bonkey doy gonna plagiarize next week? You wouldn’t do THAT, would you sweetie???
Maybe I’ll just go look at the suits. That’s all. Just look.
I’m grillin’ burgers tonight. I’m in the mood for a big ol’ homemade bacon cheeseburger. I made some tater (but not from our Taters) salad last night to go with the burgers. Actually, burgers will be supper tonight and tomorrow, with some for freezin’ for later. MMMMM… thick, juicy homemade bacon cheese burgers!
Recommendation of the day: Don’t fly on a bankrupt airline, especially one with striking mechanics. **KeithT **was supposed to get in around 6:45 last night for an interview today. But his flight in got cancelled because there was a problem with the plane and no mechanics to fix it. Sheesh. I think he made a later flight and hopefully he’s at the all-day interview right now. Although the other job that he’s interviewed for sounds good, it’s many states away and would involve both of us moving. So this one, where I wouldn’t have to move would be better. Everyone keep your fingers crossed!
I don’t think this post will add to my scorecard for this week’s TMI award, nor does it have anything to do with home improvement issues. FCM, sorry about the snap yesterday. I was having a low sugar spell, and I get grumpy in those.
I just got back to work after an early PT session. Today I was introduced to the exquisite torture of deep tissue massage. The therapist was cute. She’d be working away on my leg and I’d be just about to the point that I’d propose marriage because it felt so good, and then she’d hit something that hurt REAL bad. I swear she knew what was on my mind, and deliberately pushed on the bad stuff just to keep me in line.
I bought some new duds yesterday at JC Penney. I’ve lost about 15 lbs and I was so tired of wearing baggy pants. I look cute! Two shirts, same style different colors, and two pairs of pants, same style, different colors. I do that all the time, 'cuz I have a funny body shape, and it’s hard to find stuff that fits right.
I made gumbo on Sunday, and spaghetti on Monday. Last night we had leftovers, and tonight I’m gonna try to make “authentic” enchiladas. Tomorrow we are having Cornish game hens cooked in the crock pot, seasoned with lemon pepper. I’ve never tried this. Anybody have any tips? I have a rack to keep them off the bottom.
Mr. Lissar made me do yoga yesterday. He has this funny idea that I can do headstands and bridges. How amusing.
We have tons of chli left over. There will be much chili eating for the nest few days. I might go get some hot dogs and do chili cheese dogs. That would be yummy.
MMMM… weiner dogs and chili. Excellent idea Puggy! Oh like you didn’t think I’d pick up on that! I think I’ve mentioned the weiner dog that lives behind my house that squeaks instead of barks.
I had a McD’s Filet O’ Fish and some fries for lunch. I picked it up right quick like on my way back to work from funeralizing. Not exciting. But, I’m not hungry now, so I guess that counts for sump’n. Especially since tonight is big, juicy homemade bacon cheeseburger night.
I got kinda misty eyed at the funeral. See, everytime I go to a funeral for a Marine or Navy veteran and the organist plays or the congregation sings “Eternal Father Strong To Save” I get all misty eyed. If the same hymn is played or sung during regular church I don’t get all misty. Weird, huh?
