The Grasshopper spent all summer hopping about eating and fornicating with the hottie lady grasshoppers. Then he died in his sleep in the October frost. The Ant toiled underground all summer, till his mandibles fell off, then his cubemates dragged his husk to be used as fertilizer in the subterranean mushroom garden. In other words, that Dumpster and the 40s are looking good right now. ;0
Your Teeming Minions are gathering rotten vegetables to throw at you for starting the new MMP on Sunday night.
BTW, can you be first if you start the thread? I thought I was first (with the reply).
ETA: your Teeming Minions must be ants; no fair adding that part late.
The teeming millions of ants are in my bathroom, sucking up the poison to carry it back to the nest.
I’d rather go look for the nest and pour boiling water in it but it’s probably under the porch and I’m not crawling under there.
Oh, you are talking teeming minions. I am not a minion, I have minions, just so you know!
Do I sense a schism happening between the mumpers? Those who are fine with the MMP actually being an SEP given that it’s “Monday somewhere in the world, right?” and those who would lay down their lives valiantly in the pursuit of keeping it a true Monday Morning Post?
When one of my brother’s came to visit back in March, we went to the Albuquerque Zoo (Biopark). The Zoo has many free roaming peacocks - in fact, a few weeks ago, one of them actually walked up to and -bit- a 4 year old girl who was visiting the zoo. It bit the girl on the face and she had to have stitches; the zoo separated the peacock from the rest of the flock and taken him somewhere else. I guess he’s being quarantined? Good grief! There are also many, many ducks, and it being spring time, duck fancy turns to fornicating, I suppose. LOL We viewed a little menage a deux between male and female duck (mallards). While they were screwing, the male was biting the female on the neck - and kept pushing her head under water! I was wondering if the female duck was going to be okay or if we’d be watching a murder. Okay, yes, I felt dirty for watching, but hey it’s nature, right? The female duck did survive, btw.
LOL Happy Sunday evening post, right?
Good Mornin’ Y’all! Up and caffienatin’. YAWN ‘Tis 68 Amurrkin out and hyooooooooooooooooomid as all get out already! The predicted high for the day is 86 with a forty percent late afternoon chance of rain/tstorms/apocalypse. It must be the apocalypse approachin’ because the weather PTB tell me that we could have some severe significant weather. Well, loot the stores for tp, bread and milk! We’re doomed!
coldblood that was an ummm interestin’ link especially before brekkies. However I feel all edjookayted as to the types of poop so you done fought some ignernce!
Now I need more caffiene and rumbly tummy wants to be fed. Then, alas, irk purtification must commence. Also, I get to drop twuck off at the twuck hospital to get his brakes checked out. They’re makin’ a noise brakes should not make. Thus is the joy of first thing Monday mornin’.
Up and in pain. I took ibuprofen before going to bed, but I’m not all that sure that it worked. Started today with tylenol - that has been more effective, so we shall see.
**FCD **hauled the laundry downstairs for me AND cleaned the cat box. Ain’t he sweet!! I’ve fed the dog and fed myself, and now I’m reading and caffeinating. I’ve got to empty the dishwasher and refill it, make the beef I slow-cooked yesterday into soup today, do the aforementioned laundry, spot clean the carpets, and touch up some white paint on the trim **FCD **installed yesterday. Much of this week will be spent getting the house ready for his folks’ arrival. Not that it’s *that *flthy - it’s just that I abhor housework, but I can tolerate it in small doses, so I’ve got 4 days of small doses ahead.
I’d have preferred to sleep in this morning. Guess I’m getting used to not being up at 5. Once **FCD **retires, that’ll be the rule rather than the exception. I think I can deal with that.
You forget the third group- those of us funny foreigners for whom it has been consistently posted on monday morning. This 'un was 3am my time- early, but definitely morning!
Today shall be spent getting ready to go camping- think I’m off tomorrow, but I need to make sure all the plants and pets is ready first. The housemate’s not coming this year, so at least I don’t have to find a sitter, though it does mean I have a 6 hour drive tomorrow by myself, with no car stereo, and only a kazoo for music.
Need to plant out loads of stuff, do a load of washing, post Dad’s birthday present, dig out all the camping gear, fill up the car, check the oil and tyres- and really, the fact that I’m still in my jammies after midday is more than a bit lazy, considering.
