The weather guys lied again - it didn’t hit the 40s today - it’s hovered around 37°. I’m cold. I need to bake something to warm up the house. Yep, that’s a good reason. 😃 Brownies??? ---

Yes I do **Swampy** yes I do. You don’t know how many posts I have deleted before hitting send because I don’t want to dump it here. Why should all you nice people have to hear it? The news has a big accident on that is pretty close to my house, I keep looking the cars to see if there are any I recognize. One of my friends would be driving through there except she retired few months ago. I got my new bluetooth today and I’m not too happy with it. I didn’t realize from the pic that it looks like earmuffs and it fits over both ears. If I can’t use them Sah-son probably can use them with his computer. They are okay for in the house but I don’t think I will wear them in public. ---

I got a windfall today in the form of a cheque in the mail! I wish I could spend it on the music festival I wanted to go to, but the festival’s website doesn’t accept my Visa debit card. !@#%^&\*()\_)(\*&^%#@!@#%^&\*&^%#@!@#%^&\*&^%#@!@#$% Fun thing to do: hold down your Shift key and swipe your finger across the number row on your keyboard (what we in music call a “glissando.”) You get swearing symbols. Like I did above. Therapeutic. ---

\*\*Midget \*\*- we got an unexpected check too! When we lived in FL, we were part of an electric co-op and they’ve been sending us annual checks since we left, altho I think this will be the last one because I’m pretty sure they just do it for 10 year. Anyway, we’re $28 and change richer. Woohoo! 😃 Supper is almost ready - chopped up turkey, broccoli, and onions in a cheesy pasta. Quick and easy - just the way I like my men… 😃 ---

**FCM** I have been meaning to ask, how does one dress for Rams Head? I’m assuming neat but casual? Any street parking or do you have to park in the garage? Is the food any good? We are thinking we will eat before we get there. Sounds like mr pussy pants is here, oh joy and happiness. I guess I shouldn’t call him pussy pants but then again she should have though of that before she started calling OAOASO names. Funny how she thinks it’s okay when she does it but when I do it back all of a sudden I am a bully and being verbally abusive. I really did not expect to be this angry. ---

\*\*sari \*\*- Ram’s Head is casual, but not sloppy. Street parking is next to impossible to find, so we park [here](https://plus.google.com/111743168886829678645/about?gl=us&hl=en) - it’s practically across the street from the Tavern. If you get their package with dinner, they give you a parking voucher that saves you something at the garage. We’re not eating there, so I don’t know all the details. Chill. Think happy thoughts. Be Zen, dammit!! 😉 ---

I think from now on I’ll follow multiple weather forecasts, pick the one whose weather I like the best, and go with that one. ---

> [@carnivorousplant](#): > > What does it mean, “pussy pants”? It’s my not so nice name for my not so nice brother in law. He has said so many shitty things to me and well, my not so nice side is coming out. It is a slur against his manhood, or lack there of. **FCM** Like this \*\*\*Picture yourself near a stream. Birds are singing in the crisp, cool mountain air. Nothing can bother you here. No one knows this secret place. You are in total seclusion from that place called the world. The soothing sound of a gentle waterfall fills the air with a cascade of serenity. The water is clear. You can easily make out the face of the person whose head you’re holding under the water. There now, feeling better? \*\* \* ---

There are some things that it is of no use denying. Okay, enough dreaming and philosophising (philosophizing?) for now. I should get my head out of the clouds and practice the clarinet. The regular one. ---
