I managed to find a way to print out my stuff! I emailed my dad and he saved me by printing out the stuff at his work. I hope he won’t get in trouble for printing out non-work-related stuff. So far, I myself have sometimes sneakily managed to print out sheet music at my own work without getting caught… 😉

Oh, and I won ten cents on a website today!! 😃 😃 I’m rich!

I think it’ll be more like this: When he comes back **the next day** , we wait ten minutes, and yank the main breaker…

You have camping gear?

Can this involve flaming bags of dog poo for when he exits the building? 😃

I figure we can get a Motel 6 next to a liquor store and some Lithuanian girls.

**flytrap** the motel next to the likker sto’ is a Super8. For an additional fee I’m sure the room comes furnished with women or men or both if you desire. It’s an equal opportunity Super8. 😃

Mess with circuit breakers at the orifice and you’ll have to deal with Wanda. You don’t wanna have to deal with Wanda. She will hurt you and then bring in baked goods for everybody but you. I know you don’t want that.

**red** how nice! You want to provide luminaries so I don’t trip over anything in the dark.

Dindin is et. ‘Tis rainin’. Life is good.

Only pain relief I’ve needed so far today was a combo of Advil and Aleve. I’m groggy, and I slept well last night.

I used to bowl on a league - pitiful average, but I won an award for bowling 100 pins _above_ my average.

I luvs you too **Butters**

I’m glad you need nothing stronger **Nettie**

I used to bowl on a league, when I was about 7. Duckpins.  
Then I bowled when I was older with some friends, no league. A coach used to come over and talk to us and he’d tell us you gotta keep your pointer to the pins. He said we women were lucky 'cause we got two pointers. That was Ten pins.

One day we couldn’t bowl Ten pins because of league stuff going on so we went down to the duck pins lanes.  
Such fun as we lofted the balls down the alley. Then we’d forget to push the little clear and reset buttons, lose count of how many balls we had taken.  
We were no more good after my friend pointed out that duck pins sound like teeth clacking together we you hit them.  
It was a fun time but we were a mess.

One of my sisters used to bowl in duck pin leagues - one time, she was on 3 different leagues at once. Then she got married. I don’t think she bowls any more.

I don’t think I’ve bowled duckpins since I was a teen, so more than 40 years ago. Dang!

I don’t speak your crazy moon language.

I’m just about to head out the door to watch [Sharknado.](http://www.rifftrax.com/live) The people at irk think I’m crazy because I spent money to go see this. I told them I only paid $16 and they had to pay a whole cable bill for it, so who’s really coming out ahead here?

I can lend you some crazy Latvian guys, if that’s close enough?

Finally bottled the pulm wine from the October before last. It’s… not great. A little acid, but OK. It’s way better than it was when I tried a bit last year, so maybe it’ll improve with time. That’s why I like mekkin’ wine; the lazier you are, the better it is. I need the demijohn space for this year’s blackberry though, hence evicting the plum.

I think I’ll make two demijohns (one whole john?) of blackberry this year, 'cos it looks like it’ll be an awesome year for 'em.

Partay at mine, roughly next July! Woo! 😃
