I Know What Yer Pet is Thinkin'

Since friggin’ when does Spring arrive in mid-February? You’re about two months ahead of yourself.

One would think that feminine bounty overflowing its constraints would be hell for sexy. Strangely, it often isn’t. I recommend ditching the sling altogether.

There, that’s much better.

It’s kinda springish here too. Still cold, still gloomy, but rainy rather than snowy. I dreamed about opening day at the Renaissance faire and woke up disappointed that it’s still not summer yet.

I have no ideas for dinner tonight. Not a one. Maybe I’ll pick up Taco Hell for the WryGuy and the kid (they actually LIKE that crap) and I’ll just eat the leftover pecan pie.

Hey, check this out: I have my satellite radio thingie hooked up to the stereo in the living room, and I can pick it up in the studio too!

Well, I used to think I was a B cup then one day I shopped at Victoria’s Secret where they let you try the bras on. I asked one of the helpful ladies if the bra style was such that everything was supposed to overflow like it was doing. She suggested I try a C cup and low and behold most everything actually fit in the bra. So I had been wearing the wrong size for a long time which wasn’t really obvious to me until I tried the VS demi-bra style which is meant to have a little overflow. However I still have several B cup bras that were nice bras I didn’t want to get rid of and occasionally might wear for a little extra lift . Who am I kidding? I wear them when all the other bras are in the dirty laundry.

I watched House too. I kinda like that show, something about a doctor who’s rude but is at least sarcasticly funny about it that’s a nice change from just plain rude or phony nice. I figured he used the term “autopsy” even though he’s knows the proper term because he was talking down to the other doctor. I like how he got mad that they didn’t disclose the pet cat’s death in their family medical history. I learn stuff watching that show, I never knew that about termites. Those were damn big termites. shudder

LifeOnWry is that room cleaned yet young lady? Are you sure? Do I need to make sure?

ACBG has some tighty whities that make him bulge real nice. Course that’s not exactly lingerie but I like it when he wears em. :smiley: Hey! It’s my first TMI this week. It’s usually much worse way before now.

I have to be a pall bearer on Friday. An uncle (father’s brother) died and it is a kinda weird family thing that da nephews be pall bearers. So, a bearin’ pall I’ll go.

Speakin’ of weird stuff have y’all checked out Shibb’s “Found A Peanut” thread yet? May be the weirdest MPSIMS thread this week.

:excitedly raises hand: Oooh, ooh! MEEEEE!

Bumbazine, the shop looks great. Don’t forget to let us all know if you start selling online!

No sexy clothes and no exciting food for me. :frowning: Just a plain-vanilla type week.

I saw it when it was first posted and I wanted to ask if it was a Circus Peanut but I felt like that wasn’t the right response so I didn’t post. :frowning:

Geeze, you sound like a Mom. In fact, you sound like ME.

My camera battery is recharging as we speak, but I’m so excited about the studio being actually CLEAN that I plan to take a photo later and I’ll even post it so you can inspect. Get your white gloves ready. (And I know you have white gloves, because you have to wear 'em when you bear pall. I am awfully sorry to hear about your uncle.)

Got Chinese food for lunch today. Beef with vegetables and pork fried rice. And I know its authentic Chinese food, because the guy took my order in English, and then turned around and yelled the order into the kitchen in Chinese.

I really wish they would have left out the broccoli, though. Probably my least favorite vegetable, but you can’t seem to get the “with vegetables” without them. And they forgot to give me the little tiny corn holders with which to eat the little tiny ears of corn.

So here it is, then:
Good to begin well,
better to end well.
Lucky numbers 1,22,36,38,39,46

It’s nice and warm here today, but we’re told to expect a thunderstorm later today. And that means, it’ll snow before ten days are gone (ancient Virginia Beach proverb, I believe.) Of course, with the roof leaking over the fireplace and the landlord on vacation (probably someplace where it isn’t raining, I’ll bet; and if it is raining there, the roof ain’t letting water seep onto a CD collection), I’d rather have the snow.

Hey Wintermute, you’re favorite Billy Joel song just came on the radio. Just thought I’d say hello, and wondered if you had any luck with the peppermint M&Ms.

Just in case Swampy was busy. I’m helpful that way.

Thanks for the help Bumba. It’s hard keeping up with all the <snerkin’> that needs to be done. Interestingly enough, I had that same fortune last Friday night in some take out. ACBG and I tried it out. It’s true! :smiley:

Thanks LifeOnWry. He had alzheimer’s. So did my father. So did my aunt. I don’t know what that says for my future, but… :eek:

’zine, just so you know I’m not ignoring the off-line emails about the soap shop. VunderWife is quite the basket freak, and will probably like the wood basket with da’ bear.

Anniversary is mid-May. I also have my sister and other female relatives to think of, so you’re not wasting electrons with this…

[serious]
Condolences on your uncle. That’s got to be a rough way to go.
[/serious]

I don’t think you’ll have anything to worry about, Swampy, seein’ how you lost your mind long before the Oldtimers’ symptoms ever start. :wink: :smiley:

Swampy, my condolences on the passing of your uncle.

It isn’t spring here! It was 19 degrees out this morning. It was just about that cold yesterday morning too. The sun is out, but geeze, all it does is TEASE you. It taunts you with it’s golden goodness and faint promise warmth. Dang it! I’m ready to go and dig in the dirt and put some flowers and shrubs in. I refuse to do it when it’s cold out.

Well, I’m gonna go grab my salad for lunch. I’m so predictable. My co-workers keep looking for bunny whiskers because I’m eating “rabbit” food.

FairyChatMom if your cat isn’t too fat to get to his butt to scratch like VunderBob suggested, but is still dragging it on rough surfaces (read carpet, cement, sisal rug etc) then he probably has worms. The most likely and common are tapeworms and they are very easy to get rid of with a pill, but it’s only available by prescription. Your vet can give you lots more options if you ‘do’ that sort of thing. Feel free to e-mail me if you want more info.

VunderBob my condolences on the lost of a good buddy. Ya done the right thing!

Good to know. In fact, I’m about to shop for a vet since it’s about time for both critters to get their shots. I’ll be sure to mention the butt-dragging. Thanks!

lisslaI think either corn oil or butter in the batter would have made a world of difference - the cake part was just too dry. Whipped cream might have helped, too - kinda like a shortcake.

In other news, um, well, I got my oil changed today. My van has passed 155K miles. I love my van, so I take good care of it. I don’t want it to die. Ford quit making the Aerostar the year I got mine… alas.

And that’s all for now. It’s raining and dreary and I need to find a groomer to give my dog a once-over. You know, Rue, if you were a true friend, you’d drop in unannounced and give poor stinky Bernie a bath and a pedicure. Just tell your family you’ll be back in a couple of days… I’ll buy you lunch!

I was SO hoping not to be the person who answered this question, but… (grimacing)… it sounds to me as though your cat needs to have his anal glands expressed.

I’m not saying another word. See a vet for an explanation.

swampy, sorry to hear about your uncle. I was pall bearer for both my maternal grandparents - it’s a sad duty.

Come see my clean and orgamanized studio!

Did I do good, swampy? Huh? Did I?

Wow, a place for everything, and everything in its place.

You should hire yourself out.

I like the pretty stacked boxes. Actually, I like everything - but I like the pretty stacked colored boxes the best. Nice job!
