Don’t tell them that! They’ll have a war!
Home - yay for the end of the week!! We’re going out for supper just because.
I got an invite to the work Christmas Party, and I was going to blow it off, but it’s a free dinner and it’s pretty close to home. So why not? Free dinner, right?? Just need to convince my sweetie that it’s worth attending.
**doggio **- so whatcha doin’ now? I hope it’s not something disreputable like telemarketing or gigolo-ing or working for the Tea Party… :eek:
We didn’t have any door knockers - apparently they believed it when we had all the lights out. Plus it was raining a little.
TGIF!!!
It’s a rainy afternoon and da cave smells of corned beef ‘n cabbage. Plus it’s Firday! In a bit I shall bake up some rolls and I have a peach cobbler to go in the oven whilst dindin is bein’ ingested. We shall have peach cobbler with some good 'niller ice cream for dessert. YUM!
Oh, and I’m hongree! Can’t start the rolls until I know OYKW is on his way. I may waste away. Woe!
I had a blast scaring the tweenies last night, and even got the next door neighbor Of course, I was nice and left the little 'uns alone.

Not the best pic, but there will probably be more later.
Ursula?
I too like Twix. Especially peanut butter Twix. YUM!
I’m disappointed in the el cheapo grocery store down the street. There was no discount Halloween candy. Well, there was candy corn in the discount bin, but that’s not even edible. It’s like shards of circus peanuts.
Mooom, I’m blowing off the irk Christmas party this year. It’s nothing but kissing the CEO’s ass for two hours. Now, don’t get me wrong, I like CEO but I kiss no one’s ass for any amount of time.
I’m getting a headache for some reason. I blame irritating cow-irker Daisy. I may have to strangle him slightly if he doesn’t stop being such a flake.
Corned beast 'n cabbage has been ingested. Peach cobbler for later. We’s stuffded right now. Life is good.
I killded the MMP! :eek:
Warm peach cobbler with good 'niller ice cream is da bomb!
That is all.
Swampy I wish I could eat ice cream again, peach cobbler is just not the same without it.

**Spaz **- since our company is headquartered in Great Britain, I’m pretty sure the CEO isn’t going to travel to southern Merrylande for our little soirée. I don’t think we even have lowly VPs around here. For a free meal, I’ll go. I can always pretend to be sick if we need to sneak out early…
We went to Waldorf for supper and had some really mediocre Italian food. I wish we had a good Eye-talian place around here. Sadly, Olive Garden, Ledo’s and a few small local so-so joints is pretty much all we’ve got. Oh well, at least I didn’t have to cook or clean up.
Time to knit. *** MWAH!!***
I hope everyone had a great halloween! I had a fun night with my friend and my boyfriend playing video games late into the night. It was a fun time, but no candy to be had! My friend did make a rather delicious key lime pie for us to enjoy and the 3 of us ate the whole pie that night. Oops!!
Thanks for the hugs and support everyone!
$2.99 three people eatin’ a key lime pie ain’t so bad. Of course, this is comin’ from someone who would consider the whole pie to be a single servin’ portion.
I finished off the sauer beef and dumplings.
I’m knocking off irk a little early and going on on this Friday night.
Yep that’s right, I went out to lunch two days this week, going out tonight and going out to lunch tomorrow. I’ve done blown the budget so I may as well live it up a bit.
I’ve had too much stress and too many disappointments lately.
sari sometimes ya just gotta cut loose. Go for it I say!
And on that note, I shall retire to the bedroom where my sweetie awaits me.
Yay!!!
Woohoo!
Hooray!
I wasn’t exactly sure until tonight if RT would be in town for Thanksgiving… And he will be!!! So, I get to fix lunch for everyone and then hopefully later in the day he and I will go up north so that he can meet the HFUNs! :D:)

**doggio **- so whatcha doin’ now? I hope it’s not something disreputable like telemarketing or gigolo-ing or working for the Tea Party… :eek:
What’s wrong with being a gigolo?:dubious:
Still retail management, just Rite-Aid instead of Dollar Tree. Oh, and if you have 9523 photos on your flash drive, it will lock up the self serve kiosk.:smack:
Yay, Sticky!
Love the tentacles, Drae.
Oh goodie. We has a power failure. It’s all dark and beepy now.
Beepy gave way to silence as batteries died out.
At least now I know the Merlin phones will stay usable for about an hour on their dedicated UPS, and the Uverse gateway for two, and maybe longer.
The POCO’s website indicated 7500 customers affected, so this was something serious like a blown substation, rather than some drunk skidding off the road and taking out a pole.
I’m up and getting ready for today’s show. While lying in bed I was seriously considering cancelling out because I generally make so little money there anyways and also because I’m not yet setup so it wouldn’t matter. Which now makes me realize that I forgot to mention yesterday that my van quit running and had to be towed and my dad and I had to load everything for the show into the back of his pickup truck.
Fortunately, my dad* has* a pickup and also I think my van will be able to get fixed today, so I’m not too worried about the whole thing. I think I’m semi-rambling. Ok, I’d better get off the computer and get the rest of my stuff ready to go.
Happy Saturday!
It just occurred to me that Higgs probably won’t be resetting her internal clock when we turn the clocks back tonight, so she may end up rousing me at 4 tomorrow morning, dammit! I’m thinking we need to let her spend a lot of time in the yard today, getting tired.
It’s supposed to be a rather nice day, so I’m planning to finish the last of my planting, since it’s pretty much my last chance before it gets too doggone cold - altho we might have another decent weekend ahead somewhere. But when it gets light, I’ll be donning grubbies and getting to work.

What’s wrong with being a gigolo?:dubious:
You’d sell your body for money? You’d debase your dignity as a mere sex object for a wealthy woman? You’d allow yourself to wallow in mere physical pleasure to pay the bills?? I believe I’ve made my point.
Tomorrow is my sweetie’s birthday, but I have no idea what we’ll do. He hasn’t expressed an opinion either way. We’ll probably just go out to eat somewhere. Maybe I’ll bake him a birthday pie - he likes pie. Pie pie pie pie pie pie!!!
Other than that, just another day in paradise. Happy Saturday!!
Another rainy blurf.
Last night was a lot of fun. My friend was supposed to host a party for our theatre group. But the electricity was off in his house. So we had the party by candlelight. First time I’d ever done such a thing. Was driven home afterwards by an old friend who joined the theatre group a few years ago.
Life is good sometimes.
