What she said.
Good morning all.
It was 9degrees F when I woke up this morning. I think we set a new low temperature record.
Made it into work this morning after taking yesterday off. Couldn’t do it two days in a row - those folks at home were driving me crazy. We ended up getting 8 inches of snow Tuesday night/Wednesday morning. Not the most I’ve ever seen down here, but definitely in the top three one-day snowfalls.
And it looks like we’re only at about 1/3 staffing this morning. Main roads are good, neighborhood roads are still not plowed.
Did I miss anything?
Happy Thorsday!
It’s a sunny nippy 9 degrees outside with a projected high of 28, and hopefully the last below freezing day for a while. It may make it up to 50 over the next few days. Then I’ll be happier about going outside.
I have to get a blood test tomorrow so no eating after midnight.
I like the way y’all refer to the house as MY house. If on the the minute chance I were to ever get a house like that I will be sure to let Doggio taunt the neighbors, even if it is in French and Spidey can drench the ones who get too close.
Until Rosie gets there to claim the turret as her own.
Jim, if I had a house like that I’d happily put the band up overnight.
She longs to stand on the parapet, arms outstretched, “My People! I love my People! But not on weekends. I don’t do weekends.”
Gettin’ irk stuff done but not a lot goin’ on it seems. Fine by me. Got chikin pieces cookin’ for chikin 'n dumplins. I’m even gonna make real dumplin’s this time. Go Me!
Welcome to Pennsylvania without the work of moving all your stuff. Although if it really was Pennsylvania, all the stores would have sold out of milk and toilet paper.
Saw different reports on the big pile-up down Swampy’s way. I would suggest that next time we decide to put a hit on Da Cave, we not enlist Cobra and the Weather Dominator unless they get the tracking problems solved.
Gaaah. Day off was lovely, but so busy today!!
Up and caffeinated, laundry before work.
“My name is Maytag. I’m an agitator.”
It’s been an exciting night and morning. I hadn’t mentioned it, but Bubba’s sister was sick and had been getting better until last night when we had dueling double doggie diarrhea going on here. It seemed like about once an hour I’d awake to barking of one or the other dog and we’d trek into the arctic air and then come in for a little TP action. Ugh. (Yes, this is the MMP so it’s ok if I share my TMI. 
)
A good time was had by all. It seems to have slowed down a little bit today. I hope my Bubster is ok, I hate it when he doesn’t feel good.
Awwwww. Poor puppies. 
and poor Sticky for having to go out.
Bbbobio,
StickyBuns hope Bubbaschnoodle and his sis feel better today, poor babies.
Chikin’ got done, cooled off and then deboned. I have a nice broth for chikin ‘n dumplin’s. OYKW does not know that’s what he’s gettin’ for dindin and it’s one of his favorites. Have I mentioned he’s kinda spoiled?
Also, since I am at da cave, I have begun preppin’ for Sunday N.O.L. Havin’ a little bday celebration for MOG after deheathenization. Her favorite meal is turkey ‘n dressin’. I have a turkey boob thawin’ out in the beerator. Sometimes beerator has other duties besides chillin’ beer. I have made cornbread and bizkits for the dressin’ this mornin’. We shall have turkey ‘n dressin’, sweet N.O.T. souffle, butterbeans, squish casserole, cranberry sauce, rolls and chawklit sheetcake with chawklit pee-kahn icin’ (her fav) and, of course, the all important Bloody Mary’s with which to toast the passin’ of another year. That should be bday feast enough for ten people.
Also, N.O.L. has been et.
Ok, back to irk.
“Are you a zebra or a donkey/jackass” (depending upon little children in the vicinity) is my favorite
Instead of parachutes, can we put buttered bread on their back & do some scientific testing at the same time? Cats always land on their feet & buttered bread always lands buttered side down so how will it land? I could be the next Einstein! Thou there’s always the possibility that finding out will break the space/time continuum causing the planet to vaporize. :eek:
Sargent: <Hurriedly running up to Captian> Captain, Captain, the troops are revolting!
Captain: <looking at sargent> Well, you’re pretty disgusting yourself. 
We have explicitly told your to not read some of the private (yet posted in the public MMP) emails as you are not to know of details of our attack. Bad, bad Swampy! :mad:
To atone, please immediately send us coordinates, blueprints, & the exact location of the teevee-watchin’ chair, as well as the location of closet that stores the extra cases of TP within the cave.
Sari’s a Gremlin!
VWife’s PC caught a nasty Trojan Horse, “We’re the FBI. Pay us a $300 fine in the next 72 hours, or we’ll bust you for the kiddie porn on this PC” type of scumware. Battled that sumbitch for 2 days with little to show for it, so I went to the local Staples for some help from the tech gurus. Apparently I did good somehow, somewhen, because none of us could find anything.
Fine with me, because the wanted $150 for any actual bug hunting.
Anyway, none of that is my point, rather I spotted two oddities on the road back to the orifice. The first was a car with a counter Jesus fish that had ‘Exterminate’ inside, and Dalek rayguns popping out of it’s forehead. The second was a large delivery van with explosive placards on the side. The funny part was that next to the placard on the back door was also a rather prominent crucifix.
If my job was hauling around 'splodey stuff, I’d want to appeal to Og as much as possible, too.
Spidey find me yourself. 
I am done with irkstuff today. Stuff I need to get done is at the orifice and since I can’t be there I’m done.
I shall go make dumplin’s in a bit for the chikin 'n dumplin’s. That and succotash will make a good dindin on a cool day.
Sweet N.O.T. for the souffle are also baked. Go Me!
Another day of de-crapping SIL’s computers.
If it wouldn’t prevent her from running the remote terminals and whatnot that she needs to work, I’d change her account on the PC to Guest.
How cold is it? I dunno, but our pipes froze! Very strangely too…two sinks in the master bath. One had cold water only, and the other had neither. Thankfully, the pipes thawed out without incident.
Can you delete or rename her account and create another?
Another contestant for the shark-a-pult.
And now for the big news from Hippy Hollow:
I put a Brita filter on my kitchen sink faucet. I have fancy water now!
This has been the big news from Hippy Hollow.
There’s actually a Doper named Hippy Hollow.
I got a CD in the mail! It was delayed but it finally came! The awesomeness of that fact kind of makes up for the fact that I got my ribs crushed in a door earlier today (but I"m fine. I just got stuck in a building entrance door, and it wouldn’t’ve hurt except that my ribs are already bruised. )
