It’s not an excuse for a party **sari** so much as it’s a large hint to bring presents, chawklit and a cake. 😃 ---

> [@sahirrnee](#): > > **Spidey** I’m watching you. Which is probably what you wanted all along anyway. 😃 I’ll bet you were the kind of guy to dip pigtails in the inkwell. 😛 **[del]Stalker[/del] Sari** I’s nowhere near old enough to have had inkwells when I was in skool. Even suggesting it makes me so :mad: that I think you should go to **Swampy’s** for chili-dawg dinner; youse now not invited for the turkey I din’t get to smoke today because I had to go into the orifice to _not even see_ the big boss, which is why I \*had \*to go into the orifice in the first place anyway. :smack: It now needs to be cooked early (pre-dawn) Thursday morn in order to have it in orifice for holiday pot luck lunch. **BBBobbio** , I don’t know if it was Jewish, but I did see a flying deer tonight; it made 1½ of the 2 lanes of traffic before a car launched it :eek: The car didn’t stop & it got up after it finished tumblin’ & rollin’ so we kept driving. I vote for the last wickend in Jan as I’ll be down that way that wickend anyway. ---

Hey **Rosie** , while I’m thinking about it, I saw _Collateral Damage_ this weekend, and Miguel Sandoval was in it. I happen to have a much better looking chin than his. 😉 ---

You all live on the wrong damn side of the country. I can’t come to the Mumperfest! I dragged myself into work, but have to admit my heart wasn’t really in it. I did some minor stuff, but didn’t get nearly as much done as I normally would. I will have to really buckle down tomorrow. I was very pleasantly surprised to hear that my office had taken up a collection to make a donation to one of the charities we asked people to donate to in lieu of flowers for my Dad. It was a nice sum of money. I will have to write another thank you card. I have dinner in the oven and after we eat, I plan to relax. I am looking forward to my son coming home this Saturday for Christmas break. Unfortunately, I will have to make a dental appointment for him. Apparently he has a cavity and maybe a wisdom tooth erupting. Sigh, another bill I wasn’t looking for around Christmas time. Oh well. It needs to be done and I can’t have him suffering. Is it Friday yet? I would really like for it to be Friday. ---

Well, it’s _my_ Friday. Heading up to Berkeley in the morning to have breakfast at [900 Grayson](http://www.900grayson.com/) And by breakfast, I mean Breakfast: Breakfast Fresh Farm Eggs, Nueske’s Double Smoked Bacon or Aidel’s Chicken-Apple Sausage, Idaho Hashed Browns, Toasted Acme Levain And coffee. Lots and lots of coffee. ---

That certainly looks like a tasty breakfast menu. Just a little too far south for me to get to easily. Like two states too far south…😉 ---

How could I have forgotten to mention this? I went to buy some new undies this evening because they were on sale and I had a $10 off coupon and halfway through ringing them up the cashier picked up a pair (blue w/polka dots) and said “this is what I’m wearing right now!” :dubious: 😛 ---

**Sticks,** did you get her phone number? 'cause, if that’s not flirting, I don’t know what is. ---

Good Mornin’ Y’all! Up and caffienatin’. _YAWN_ 'Tis 43 Amurrkin out and rainy with a predicted high of 53 and rain. Loverly drizzly day in south Jawja. Might as well be at irk. Last night I put together a chikin pot pie. All I need to do is make the crust and bake it this evenin’. Go Me! **Taters** cool about the office donation! Hope son’s dental visit is not too painful and if it is, I wish him good pain meds. **StickyBuns** did you thank her for sharin’? 😃 Nuttin’ like a little retail TMI. **Ethi** I do not understand bacon _or_ sausage. Shouldn’t that be bacon _and_ sausage? **Midget** chawklit is what it sounds like when I say chocolate when I tawk all country and southern, which I am. Now I need more caffiene and rumbly tummy is gettin’ fussy. Then, alas, irk purtification must commence. I have a visit from TPTB tomorrow. Rah. Happy Hump Day Y’all! ---

> [@VunderBob](#): > > Oh **Rosie** , mon cheri! When referring to **rosie** , it would be _ma cherie_. The masculine form is _mon cher_. Thus endeth your French lesson for the day. And I have to say that I’ve impressed myself there, because the last French class I took was in 1973. I’s SMRT!!! 😃 \*\*Spidey \*\*- last weekend in Jan works! What’s bringing you to our neighborhood? \*\*Sticky \*\*- c’mon down! Or up… or across… we’ll wait! 😃 \*\*Taters \*\*- just c’mon out here anyway. I’ll pick you up! 😉 They sent you here before, surely you can find an excuse to be sent here again!!! \*\*swampy \*\*- I don’t hint for presents - I really don’t much like getting presents. And I don’t hint for chocolate - I ask outright! 😛 Good morning! I survived my first evening as a single puppy parent. I took that dog outside about every half hour thru the evening, and she still pooped in the dining room. At least a little pile of poops is easier to clean up than a puddle of pee. The last time \*\*FCD \*\*called, he said he’d forgotten his phone charger. I think he has one in his computer bag, so he’ll be checking that when he goes back to the office. And this morning, one of our coworkers suggested he ask at the hotel front desk - people probably leave chargers behind all the time… Today is potluck lunch day. I sliced my cake into individual squares this morning (it’s a sheet cake) and it’s sitting in the downstairs kitchen. I’ve also got more drawings to beat into submission - working my way thru the list in order of Change Order date - I’m up to August! 😃 Puppeh has a vet appointment at 5 - she gets her last shots and we’ll schedule her spaying and chipping. I’m also supposed to learn how to clip her nails so I can teach **FCD**. Not my favorite thing, but what 'cha gonna do? Happy Wednesday! Can I go home now? ---
