Happy New MMP!

[QUOTE=Sahirrnee]
Called AT&T to find out why I am going over on my data. Seems the tablet never got connected to WIFI duh- my mistake there. Except for Sah-son hardly ever uses the tablet so it still doesn’t make sense.
Anyway it has been connect to WiFi and that should make a difference.

Just remember to check the status now and then. Our phones “forget” to go back to the home wifi now and then and need to be reminded of the preferred behavior.

Similarly, you can rummage around in Facebook’s settings to tell it to only auto-play videos if on a wifi connection so someone’s cat vids aren’t eating up your data allowance.

I have, worked, napped with the dog(Gordie didn’t mind, nd I was tired), now it’s dinner and beerverages time.

doggio kilt the MMP! :eek:

It was that nap with Gordie that did it.

Well he is surprisingly snugly.

He tends to do that.
Perhaps it is Body Odor, from sleeping with canines.

Some of us have Better Things to Do.

I must go study differential equations.
Farewell, my friends, Spiderman, and Dogbutler.

It’s good to know your diffrentials

Indeed, but I was considering the role of ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) in nitrogen cycling in marine sediments. It is probably best calculated by integrating the exponetial function over a period of time, but how does one consider the limiting factor of available ammonia that it oxidizes in a closed environment, the aquarium?

I beg your pardon, did you say something?

When you get to the playing around stage, two things I often smoke that make people go “huh?” are meatloaf and hamburgers. The extra flavor is nice but mostly because a long slow smoke has the opposite effect in ground meat as most meats - instead of more tender, it gets more firm. Makes for a nice solid burger to nuke at lunch or meatloaf to cut deli style for sandwiches but doesn’t totally dry it out.

I use a tray with holes under it so the grease drains off and usually go with like 190-220 degrees for say 3-4 hours and then flash it off with a fast trip to 400 for say 20-30 minutes.

Maybe the MMP itself was just napping. Have we ever had it tested in a sleep study?

Almost an hour? Quick - someone order a CPAP machine for the MMP!!! Just in case.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BAKER!!!

See? It was worth it, wasn’t it?

Happy Birthday, Baker!!
And at the risk of being called a jack-boot-licker:
Happy Birthday, twicks!!
We’re ending the year on a decidedly brisk note - it was 20° when I let the dog out this morning. brrrrrrrrrr

In a fit of productivity, I finally loaded last night’s dishes into the dishwasher, and it’s midway thru its cycle. Yay for clean dishes! And last night I finished another lap robe. I’ll assemble the remaining 16 squares today. I’m pretty sure I have enough black yarn to finish it off.

**FCD **thinks he’ll be home early today. He said most of his coworkers are planning to leave around noon, so we shall see. Our big plans tonight will be pretty much like every night - watch TV, then to bed, probably long before midnight. That’s how we roll. :smiley:

Happy Last Wednesday of 2014!!

Good Mornin’ Y’all! Up and caffienatin’. YAWN 'Tis 51 Amurrkin out with a predicted high of 57 for the day. Rain on tap for Firday however.

I took a melatonin and was asleep around eight last night. I pulled an all nighter. Didn’t get up even once to pee. :smiley:

Tonight I get to cook collards and black-eyed peas. The veggie black-eyed peas, not the band, just so flytrap does not get confused. First I have to look over the black-eyed peas, then soak 'em, then cook 'em in the slow cooker on low overnight. The collards don’t take a real long time to cook but I like to cook ‘em the night before and heat ‘em up just before chow time. They’re better that way. I shall also make up the squish casserole and have it ready to bake in the mornin’. I was goin’ to make a pound cake but a friend volunteered to bake one and she’s really good at it, so I’m glad for that. Oh and I shall make some deviled aigs, because, hey, deviled aigs!

That is how I do NYE.

And now this…

MOOOOOOM ain’t the only one jack-boot licker here. :stuck_out_tongue:

Now I need more caffiene and to feed rumbly tummy. Then, alas and alack irk purtification must commence.

Happy Hump Day/NYE Y’all!

You use water in the shower; therefore water gets you clean. There’s water in the bay/ocean. There’s also fish in the bay/ocean. Therefore, Flytrap, if you sleep with the fishies you won’t get BO.

Translation: Swampy peed the bed! :eek:

Left “universal access” in my car today :smack:; that is the thingy that holds: [ul]
[li]Train pass[/li][li]Building pass (to get up to our floor)[/li][li]Door pass (to get from hallway into work area)[/li][li]Desk key[/li][/ul]
There’s very few people here today to let me in but I got lucky. Then I did know where the spare key was. Also, the bathroom is in the floor lobby area, but someone just showed me a (gender neutral) handicapped loo in our secure area that I didn’t know about. I can make it thru the day.
Thought I might have to go all the way back to my car for a bit.

Well and truly LOL’d at this! :smiley:

I’m showered and dressed and not in the least bit motivated to do anything. But I think I’ll make an apple cake today, to use up the apples in the fridge. Why not?

Thank you all for the birthday wishes. I need a little pick my up like that. As a Christian Christmas is always special, but it was kind of gloomy this year as it was the first since my dad was killed. If you want to do something for others, don’t ever put a CD in your player while driving. If someone hadn’t been doing that, I’d probably still have a father.

Now, I’ll be spending part of the day out, but not much.

Got to tend to the Death Pool you know. So far ther are 115 entries, down a bit from last year, but players tend to wait until the last minute to make entries. I’ll start drinking that bottle of champagne about 8:00PM, four hours before the deadline!!! My typing shouldn’t get too erratic on just one, should it?

FCM, apple cake sounds nummy! I’m going to be eatting cheese and crackers. Anyone ever had a Norwegian cheese called Gjetost? Try it, you’ll thank me for it.

Belated blurf. I’m at the orifice for now, but I foresee a Work From Home[sup]tm[/sup] type of afternoon. :wink:

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TWICKSTER!!!

juk…

Up, caffeinated, and sneezed so hard I gave myself a bloody nose.:dubious:

Happy Birthday Baker!!!

Happy Birthday twickster!!!

If it had come out green instead, it would mean your brains are moldy.
