**Sari** , [Here’s](http://www.philly.com/philly/classifieds/real_estate/open_houses/Open_Houses_March_1__2.html?image=4) a listing for a local open house this weekend. It may be too big, too expensive for you, & in a state you weren’t looking to move, but it does have a Mumper-required turret. 😉 ---

If all my fellow MMPers would like to contribute? If we divide the price between all of us equally I cold have a real nice house, with a turret, and y’all could come to visit. I’ll even bake cookies. That house is to drool over. I was looking at this one [http:www.redfin.com/MD/Hagerstown/402-Guilford-Ave-21740/home/15392322](http://www.redfin.com/MD/Hagerstown/402-Guilford-Ave-21740/home/15392322) nothing to drool over but it’s cute ---

_ **TGIF!!!** _ What a week this has been! But work is done, my sweetie will be home in 90-ish minutes or so, and my new camera is charging as I write this. Almost makes up for a week of very short nights… Stoopit dog. \*\*sari \*\*- if your realtor is busy, can he refer you to someone else? Surely there’s someone who can help you out. That was a cute house - too bad you didn’t get it. ☹ \*\*FCD \*\*said he doesn’t want supper, so I’ll feed my face before he gets here. Probably just a sammich, or maybe I’ll scramble a coupla eggs. Or an egg sammich?? With provolone? That sounds like a winner. 😃 Happy Firday, at long last! ---

[QUOTE=swampbear] I think, and **gotti** , you could maybe back me up on this, I’ve seen this in a certain type of video. 😃 [/QUOTE] Brown moldings, brown wall… Speaking of Brown, what did I do to piss them off? I ordered something last week. It shipped out of Arizona and headed east. It arrived in Charlotte at 2:30 this morning. Normally, I’d expect the next line on the tracking to be “on truck for delivery” at around 6:30 - 7:00 AM. Nope. My box left the UPS depot that’s about six miles from my house and got sent 90 miles away to Greensboro. :eek: :smack: :mad: ---

\*\*gotti \*\*- sounds like what the USPS did to a package I was sending to Baltimore - less than 100 miles north of me. It also went to Greensboro. What really ticked me off - it was sent Priority Mail and instead of 2 days, it took almost a week! Fortunately, it wasn’t time sensitive, but still… I’s hongree. When I feed Higglet, I’ll scramble me an egg for a sammich. That’ll give me time to do the dishes before my sweetie gets here. Yay! ---

We received our state income tax refund, so I was able to pay Mrs. Plant’s(v.1.0) gas bill at the trailer she rents but hasn’t moved into yet. She will pay it back over several months. I still have to repair the retaining wall at home. I can barely pick up the big ass rocks. ---

Home from funeralizin’ and had pizza for dindin. I did ush duty and led The Prayers of The People. The place was packed. Steve knew a lot of folks. I rode in the procession from the church house to the cemetary. That was a trip. Anywho it’s all over and we’re in da cave. I’s tahrd! **flytrap** if those rocks have big asses maybe you should get 'em to lose some weight first so they’ll be easier to pick up. ---

I thought my ribs were healing. I haven’t been having a good rib day. Maybe taking a nap on my bruised ribs side wasn’t a good idea. I’ll be more careful tonight. Been making some progress on the piece of music I’m arranging. Still procrastinating. Going to a comedy show tomorrow. I’ve seen it already but I liked it, so I’m going again. Plus, parts of it are improvised, and those parts will be different.
