I hate tuna fish sandwiches.  
Unless they have apples and pecans in them.

There’s a huge difference between a tuna sandwich and a nice, rare tuna steak, perhaps crusted in sesame seeds.

But we had burgers. At least I didn’t have to do dishes. 😃

The car is loaded for tomorrow. I need to decide what to wear, and I’d like to get a solid night’s sleep. We shall see how that goes.

Sammiches have been et. Beerverages have been consumed. OYKW is takin’ a bath. Ice cream for later if desired. Life is good.

**MOOOOOOM** a muumuu and flip flops are acceptable for a shower. Do your hair though. It ain’t classy to show up at a shower in curlers.

Hmmmmm. That was back when I walked home form grade school for lunch, and my Father made it for me when he was working nights at the TV station.

Sylvia at work one Monday asked we what we ate on the weekend. I said, “We grilled some tuna.”  
She responded, “Just throw the can full on the fire?!?”  
I said, “Sylvia, White people eat weird shit.”  
🙂

How about someone with a still in their basement? Hypothetical, of course. 😉
