Sounds good. I can think of no better way to celebrate the death of our lord and savior than frying bacon with my junk hanging out.

egad!! Wear an apron, at least. Ask **swampy** about the dangers of nekkid frying.

In other news, got thru the first half of the irk day without incident. 4 and 1/2 to go.

Fuck! I gotta learn to read to the end of the thread before cracking a joke!

Oh well, I’m sure you’re great and all but… I prefer concave, not convex.

Sorry.

Most denominations I know of do not celebrate Good Friday, or any other religious holiday I know of, buck nekkid.

Mebbe it’s time I start my own…

Well, you guys have convinced me to walk away from the computer and go play in the dirt for a while. Maybe getting elbow deep in mulch will wipe the images of nekkidities from my brain…

Pffft. Took you that long? Yes, there are many advantages. For one thing, they make excellent flotation devices.

On the down side, I’ve never been a runner, for fear of getting a double concussion, and when I took an archery course many a year ago, I found out why Amazons were said to have lopped off one breast. _Ow._

Fun tutoring this morning. Last night, after I got home from a day of one mama cat, seven kittens, and four assorted doggies from two different households, I got _such_ a going over by Lil Miss Rowdy, that it took nearly ten minutes of sniffing for her to be satisfied. Not that she was jealous, but she kept going until she had the whole story. 😃

The insides of my elbows look like they’ve been in a bar fight, thanks to the clumsy phlebotomist at the Red Cross. It’s a beautiful day outside, and I want to spend some time out there. The dog desperately needs to go to the park.

Dad has some free-floating anxiety. It’s not making him hostile, but he sure is following me around and asking questions about stuff. I suspect that he’s also lonely and he’s lost that ego-check that kept him from looking for company before this. It’s just . . . I’ve got so much stuff I _have_ to get done. I can’t sit and talk with him.

Speaking of . . . time to get busy.

I got a lot done in just under 2 hours. I moved 5 daylilies from the hill to the front garden, and I divided a large hosta and moved it from the front garden to 2 of the holes on the hill that the lilies vacated. I also mulched about 1/3 of the front bed after some weeding. Right now, I’ve got the sprinkler soaking the mulch. Tomorrow, I’ll try some more weeding and lily-moving before I have to start drinking my preparatory liquid. (ick)

Time to toss supper together. I’ve already had some ibuprofen as an appetizer! 😃

Hmmm… I post an OP talkin’ about Holy Week and Passover and within ten hours we have had posts about boob kitties and nekkid bacon fryin’. Yep. This is definitely the MMP! 😃

Yay for losing weight **Oh Maker of Tasty Treats**! Every Sunday during The Prayers of The People when we name those we wish to pray for I say your grandmother’s name. I think I’ve been doin’ that for four years now. Also, yay for your ‘rents upcomin’ big anniversary. I say par-tay! 😃

No offense taken **BooFae**. Most men’s gyms are described that way these days. Maybe the cats can give you lessons on how to deal with 'im indoors. They seem to know.

**kanga** yay on the kitteh rescue!

I forgot to mention that by way of a Holy Week Obligation (yes we Whiskypalians do such things) I am attending the noon downtown churches Holy Week services. This year they are bein’ held at an African Methodist-Episcopal Church which I shall have to read up on to learn more. Anywho there are six churches that come together to do this. One church hosts each year and the Ministers of the five other church do the sermons. The Pastor at the AME church said today that he is particularly delighted to be the host church as that means he does not have to preach. 😃 It’s kinda neat. The service lasts 30 minutes and each year there is a theme. This year’s theme is “The Faces Around The Cross.” The sermon today, by the Minister of First UMC was about Mary. Very nice.

Irk was even not so irksome today. Psychotic Hosebeast even sent me stuff on the :eek: _correct_ :eek: forms! Evil, mean boss bear gets his way!

Hubby’s birthday is on Easter this year. Last week we went to Costco and he bought himself a birthday present… a HUGE flat screen TV. :rolleyes: I was fine with that. I just have to buy a card and dinner.  
Except, on Saturday while he was at the gym, he set his iTouch on his towel in the locker room and stepped 5 steps away to the urinal. When he turned back the iTouch was gone. We went to the Apple store yesterday. Happy Birthday, love-of-my-life, again. Dinner just went from [13 Coins](http://www.13coins.com/) to Jack in the Box. 😃

I did bring the subject up - She licked a paw and tilted her head at me, then walked away. I’m taking that as an “I’ll think about it and get back to you”.

Ah, Monday; how you suck! So glad it’s over. Only three more days to get through this week.

My husband was nice to me when I got home and warmed up leftovers for dinner and brought my plate to me.

I don’t have plans to do anything other than relax tonight.
