Except for that whole spay and neuter thing.

Now on to the current MMP: I put the minimal amount of ice in to cool my drink. I used to put one ice cube in my glass of whiskey, but **Wifey** bought these little metal cubes that live in the freezer that one can drop into a drink and cool it without diluting it. When I get a fast food fountain drink I’ll hit the ice thing once and then dump half of that out before filling.  
Ice in your drink gives you callouses on your lips, and nobody wants that.

I do have one soda a day, which I get from the small fridge out back which I keep stocked with pop, beer, and cider. No need for ice.

Oh, I just remembered, we do put ice in sangria. I don’t know why.

In a little bit Ima have to call Frontier Communications again. Yesterday I spent an hour on the phone trying to explain to the woman that I didn’t want to _change_ my primary e-mail address, I wasn’t getting any e-mail at all. Period. At either of my e-mail addresses.  
Since I’m not able to download my e-mail on any of my devices, I assume the problem is at their server. Probably it has forgotten my password again. _le sigh_

It’s not like it matter that much. 99.9% of the stuff I get is from people trying to sell me stuff. If I want to actually hear from someone, I give them my Gmail address, which just works. Alla time.

Mmmmm **Butters** , I do loves me some conch. That’s one thing I miss about florida.
