I win the Internet! First MMP of the week

I came home from irk early today because my lower abdomen decided that cramping up was the thing to do. I am flat out exhausted. After an hour nap I am slightly less tired.

I’m having to rip out the neverending teal blanket **again **because somehow I dropped 23 stitches. :confused: I shall now be using stitch markers, and by that I mean paperclips.

It’s a start. :smiley:

Spaz a stitch in time saves nine. I don’t know what that means but it seemed to be relevant.

Dindin is cooked and et. Hamburger steak with onion gravy, rice (decided on rice instead of smashed N.O.T. cause, hey, rice 'n gravy!), green beans and cheddah bizkits. I done good!

The problem with onion gravy is it tends to want to come back for a visit a couple hours later. URP

Swampy is one of the genteel MMPers.

I shall not ask him for the recipe.

Good Shabbes, Cute One and others. :slight_smile:

Sorry, didn’t read. Having an exceptionally tough day. The Bubster is home, though, and working on recovering. I’m glad to have him here. He makes my world a better place.

Crawling back under my rock now…

Today was 37° more chillaneous (is too a word) outside, but only 10° less inside, mebbe cause I decided to close the winders.

MIB III on the DVD tonite.

I really liked MIB III. Hmmm, might dig out my own copy, or just do all three of them. :smiley:

Just got back from the monthly bingo game here at my apartment building (no cost to participate, I have fun, and I do benefit from getting out and socializing a bit). Won $25 off next month’s rent. :slight_smile:

My kids (10&12 y/o) just recently saw Despicable Me for the first time, as did I. They loved it (we have it in the cloud, so they’ve re-watched it about a half-dozen times so far), but I must say that the minions steal any scene they’re in, hands down. They’re a riot.

Wish I had me some.

Evening, all.

One third of the way through my long week 'o hell, nine-days-straight-of-irk, bender. Ugh. On top of that, TPTB always like to drop in during these very busy times to “help”, and offer “suggestions” for improvement. Ya wanna help? Go manage something.

Oy.

I swear I live in a Dilbert universe sometimes…
:smiley:

Also, anybody got an ark for sale, cheap? It’s been raining for days straight here, and the rivers are about to bust their banks! (Some already have.)

Hope everyone is having as pleasant an evening as possible, wherever you are.

Heya! Inlaws got here safely - and early - luckily we were early, too. They were exhausted and they’re currently asleep, which is unusual, since they like to watch the news at 11. I’m about to crash, but I wanted to check my mail. All is well. I’s tahred.

And it’s DAMNED COLD HERE!!!

Tomorrow should be nicer and warmer, and we’re going to the decoy show at the fairgrounds. Maybe to a concert tomorrow night - we shall see. But for now, I think I’ll head to bed. Kisses!!!

Fairychat is a Wagnerite!
Cool!
Look at Woglinde’s first word, Sawmpy. :rolleyes:

I’m medicated because my back hurts like someone who has sex with their female parent, but “Sawmpy” ain’t bad. Who says you are the only one to give out nicknames? :slight_smile:

I have been out on a crisp but sunny morning, went over to my friend’s house to feed her three cats. The one who was outside all night came in, the one who was in all night went out, and the permanently indoor cat just looked confused. That’s about normal for those mogs.

I’m home again, had a cup of tea and now contemplating doing half an hour on the Wii as I won’t have time for it later. I have errands to do in town, an eye test at 4pm, back to feed the cats later, then a housewarming party tonight. In fact, I might give the cats double-rations tonight so I don’t have to go back until tomorrow evening. Mean, that’s what I am.

Also, I watched “Silver Linings Playbook” last night. My conclusion was “meh”.

It’s a chilly morning in southern Merrylande: 43° in my yard :eek: and we might see 70° today. This time next week, we’re predicted to be in the upper 80s - weird weather around here. And for all the threats of rain over the last few days, we got about 12 drops, so I’ve got the sprinkler set up and watering the lawn. When we get back from the fairgrounds, I’ll drag it to the side hill to water my ground cover. Meanwhile, good morning!!

Higgs whined early, as usual, and **FCD **got up to tend to her. I got to thinking about the sprinkler, so I got up, too. Inlaws are still crashed (so is **FCD **now) so I have some quite time of my own for a while. My back is getting better - I may be ready for gardening next week. I had a night of weird dreamage involving, among others, Jon Stewart, Tim Allen, someone else named Tim, the actress who plays Ziva on NCIS, my cat Ziva, and a few others I can’t recall. It was one of the more insane nights in a while.

Daughter is coming over this morning and we’re all going to the fairgrounds for a few hours to look at duck decoys. For $5. At least the weather will be nice and the fairgrounds aren’t huge, so there’s that. And I don’t know if we’re going out for dinner or if I’ll be rotissing a chickie, but I do have to mix up a batch of rotiss rub. I need to dig out the recipe.

And that’s all the news that’s fit to print from FairyChatEstates! Happy Saturday!!!

I’ve not seen it, but everything I’ve read about it leaves me with that conclusion. Of course, it doesn’t help that it’s classified as one of the movie types I avoid like the plague: romantic comedy.

It helps to imagine the bold as Chiller font.

I’m feeling better today, as in I’m more awake. Still have the tender tummy, though. One more day of this and then I’m on weekend and I won’t have to care.

Good Mornin’ Y’all! Up and caffienatin’. YAWN ‘Tis a chillyish 58 Amurrkin out with a predicted high of 85 for the day. Methinks ‘twill be a nice day to be out by the pool. Speakin’ of which, flytrap I think the followin’ would be fun to yell while divin’ in the pool:

Wagala weia! Wallala, weiala weia!

:stuck_out_tongue:

Anywho, foodstuffs are all prepped for dindin which is planned for around fiveish. BBQ will slow cook and the only thing that needs oven time is the baked beans. Plans are to eat out on the back porch bein’ as the weather seems perfect for doin’ so.

StickyBuns yay for the Bubster bein’ back home and recoverin’!

Have fun with the inlaws MOOOOOOM!

Now I need more caffiene and should find sustenance for rumbly tummy. Then, I must purtify, make sure things look good out at the pool and head over to the church house for some ice.

Happy Sattidy Y’all!

Blurf. Is it Quit O’clock yet?

Yay for [color=purple]sticky[/color and Bubster!

It took me a minute to parse that as “mo-fo.” I thought, “I don’t remember Oedipus hurting his back.” The Wagner references got me thinking about classic literature, I reckon.

Happy Saturday!

It’s friggin cold, only 17 degrees above freezing.
WTF happened to May?

I need to get up and get moving but I sure don’t feel like it.
I’ve got cats to feed, bonsai to water and of course there is irk.

I think I’ll lay back down for another hour. I feel ick today.

I don’t think I’ve ever uttered “wind chill factor” & “Memorial Day weekend” in the same sentence before.
Home, finished a 40 (that ‘mi’ not ‘oz’); kinda fried. Need to figure out the plans for the day.

Ok, everything is ready for hangin’ at the pool. 'Tis 73 Amurrkin out and feels nice. However, it’s still a cooler than normal Sattidy before Memorial Day. It’s all good!
