This is [what happened](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=17893776&postcount=8575) at [irk today](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=17895333&postcount=8579). Then I came home and yelled at a book because it is [completely insane](https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/369846.Crystal_Enlightenment). Alas, I need it for research. And it’s only Tuesday (for me). ---

**Spaz** have a drink. You deserve a drink. You NEED a drink. Or chawklit. Either one would be good. It’s 6:14 P.M. and completely dark out. It kinda makes me want to go to bed. I won’t but I want to go sleepy bye. ---

Salsa’s won. Yum! The dishwasher is now emptied, a pile of stuff is growing on the counter, cat feeder is refilled, cat water bottle is refilled, and I just finished taking pics of the semi-assembled scooter so \*\*FCD \*\*can show his folks. Gotta go pack six days’ worth of clothes. And gotta get a good sleep. We’ll take off when we wake up and get there when we get there. I hate I-95 and I’m not all that crazy about Florida. Ah well… ---

My irk day was meh. I almost forgot to muster my staff. Almost. I of course took my Lucky Louie as I hadn’t seen him for almost 5 days except yesterday. He had a little fit when I came home. Got my first travel customer. Gonna sell a plane ticket to Hawaii tomorrow. I carried a back pack and a carry on bag to my whirlwind trip. Shit was heavy. Anyway, I have sore muscles in me buttocks??? Weird! DOBK Is acting up again. This is short for Dang ole Bum Knee. I have an appt next week w ortho. **Mmooooommmm**. Safe travels and Happy Early Thanksgiving. Every one else stay safe and warm and \*\*\*\*Rosie’s sig. \*\*\*\* ---

The sacrifices some of us will go thru to help out fellow mumpers…Do you need a massage? 😉 Late dinner was roast beast from the Ale House w/ lotsa horseradish on it. Twas nummy! I was smart & didn’t even bother to get a menu, which consists of roast beast & a buncho other stuff we _never_ get (with the possible exception of the fries) ---

Good morning, y’all. It’s chilly outside, which means heavy coats must come out soon. Stew has been assembled in the crockpot for dindin tonight and my own tummy is being placated with oatmeal, which Bethany enjoys, and a banana, which Target loves. Coffee is also being consumed. As far as the Kidlet raising his own money for his Scouting activities, that’s a fantastic idea. I have the information about costs so we can work out a reasonable budget and reasonable expectations for getting the money together. ---

Happy Thorsday! It’s a cloudy 41 degrees outside, glad I am inside, I’ve had a couple of grumpy days, I finally got home last night and my mood is somewhat better. Traffic sucked both coming and going, it took over two hours to get to my mothers and almost three hours to get home. I brought a truck load of junk home with me and still have to put everything away. Got bills to pay. A list of things to do that is three pages long and that probably isn’t everything. ---

Have a good trip, **Mooom**! Today is my first full day at home. I’ve unpacked, finished the book that I was reading at the nephew’s, nuked lunch and am fixing to hit the grocery sto’ for milk (I drank tea this morning because there was no milk ☹ ), drop off prescriptions and come home for some t.v. time and nappage. It’s good to be home (but I do miss the dogs 😛 ). ---

TVCTPMO is active today. Took me over twice as long as usual to get to work today due to traffic madness. The “drivers” in this area totally lose their alleged minds when it rains, and they don’t have a lot of mind to lose to begin with. I also have an on-and-off headache and killer cramps. Currently munching on nachos. This is therapy. 😃 [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/i-decided-to-start-this-weeks-mmp/704229.md?page=6) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/i-decided-to-start-this-weeks-mmp/704229.md?page=8)
