I swear, the glue tastes like cement crafted by Satan himself in the fires of hell.

Happy Birthday Herbs
……[/color]……*
Up and caffeinating.
BBBobbio, you had a heck of a weekend.
How’s the head this morning, mmmmm?
Hope everything goes smoothly with getting Mom home, SO. I’ll be keeping you and your family in my thoughts.
Happy Birthday, tarra!!!
I actually slept well! Yay!
Gotta get ready for work…
GT
I know for certain that she’s not been to a shop in Suffolk called Ladybug. When she needs stuff, she heads off to Virginia Beach or Newport News. Knowing her, if I mention it this morning, she’ll be there within 2 hours.
Today is her last pre-op; this time with the surgeon. She’s now looking forward to being gone from me a month. I don’t know if I’m 
or 
about that…
Dots, I didn’t get the ticket…
Rather than admit to a failing grade in reading for comprehension, can I claim I was using the plural “your”, meaning “it was Sue’s ticket, but it affects all of you so it’s your collective ticket”???
No? Well, it was worth a try … 
Happy birthday, Tarra!
OK, other than that, I got nussinks.
I might grant you a collective ticket, but I’ll be darned if I get sucked into a collective fine… 
For those of you who are not bored by my tales, the Mayberry VFD Shrimp Fest is this weekend. A genuine Bacchinalia in the middle of Bible Belt Cottonfield County NC. I had a good time last year, getting hit upon by the drunken wimminfolk… 
Happy Birthday, Tarragon. Can you explain again why we should have known it was your birthday from your user name? 'Cause I’m just not seeing it.
My glasses broke this weekend - I’ve got the taped-up geek look going right now with them. I’ve got an appointment at lunch today to get an eye exam (it’s been far too long) and then new glasses. And I’m going to just bite the bullet this time and get bifocals.
This of it as “Tarragon_9/18”
Happy Birthday, Oh Herbal One!
[whine mode on] I don’t wanna do this project! [/wmo]
Have a good day, all…
One side of face a little swollen, the other side is just fine. I was upset that I couldn’t go to the gym last night. Harumph.
Every time I are someone call** BunderVob** “bbbbobbio”, I think of Phil Collins.
--Happy Birthday, Tarragon!--
Today we finally get Internet. Hopefully.
I can has insult…
For you, it’s a good look.
So sayeth the olde dude
Oh, I know! **Tarragon **sort of rhymes with Aragorn and he met Frodo at the Prancing Pony in September! <admits to full geek status>
No?
then hell if I know…
Lemme know how the bifocal adjustment goes–I’m in denial about getting mine.
I need to go forage for food soon.
Dotty–you are blowing my assumptions about your locale right out of the water. Betty Crocker? In Saudi Arabia? Next you’ll be telling me that you don’t walk around in harem pants and live in bottles. Honestly. You’re a card!
Well, happy B-day, Herbs.
When I did my morning check in call to VWife, lo and behold, she was on her way to Ladybug, Yellow Pages in hand. When I mentioned it to her last, I was still under the impression you were talking about a website.
She can smell a craft or fabric store from 30 miles away.
VBob, she sounds like me and scrapbooking stores. When hubby and I went to SD last year, I drug him to both of them that I found, lol. He’s a good sport though.
Happy Birthday Tarragon!!!
Is it nap time yet? Or better yet, is it Friday?
I think the 800 milligram ibuprofen is kicking my ass. I feel a nap at lunch. If not, then sooner.
Mmmm. Erin Burnett.
yaaaAAAAAAaaawn
::nup::nup::nup::
Huzawha? Oh. That work thing. Yeah. Got ma caffeine. Got ma breakfast. (Aged cheddar & Ritz – yeah, I know how to live it up.) Got ma – Oh! Birthday cake!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, HERBS![/center]
MindWife’s is coming up on Thursday, too, and mine follows next Wednesday. (She’s older than me by 6 days. Yeah, the “older woman” jokes are inevitable. I hate being broke such that we can’t go out and celebrate (actually, we did that on my vacation anyway, so it was pre-celebrated) but I think I’m gonna make sauteed garlic shrimp over angel hair and an Asiago-Parmesan marinara sauce, and some crab-stuffed mushrooms for an appetizer anyway. Mmm. Stuffed mushrooms. One of the few things I actually make well on a consistent basis.
McUne - We regret to inform you that, due to a scheduling conflict, Friday has been postponed until the following Monday. Those expecting to have had Monday on the day following Sunday may now find it on Wednesday, and those looking for Wednesday will find it in the spot where Friday was. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, and this probably won’t be the last time this happens now that Friday owes Wednesday a favor.
BBBobbio - Jeez, there’s a pair for you. An eminently sqeeable kitten and a HOLY CRAP, PUT THAT THING AWAY! Ridiculously cute kitten though.
Morning, all. Caffeination underway, and I’ve got a doctor’s appointment later this morning. Such is my thrilling life.
Happy Birthday, Herbs!
Cute kitteh, BBBobbio! And Frankenfinger doesn’t scare me, I’ve lived with a Frankenknee!
I hope you’re able to get your mom back home with minimal to zero trouble, Special One. Moms deserve to be treated well, especially by airlines!
I’m the same way about knitting shops that VWife is about craft or fabric stores (although I’m right behind her on those, too). Thanks to this here Intarweb, I’ve already found the name and location of the knitting shop in the town I’m going to in Oregon. And since I’m renting the car for myself and three other friends, I get to decide where to drive it! Heh heh.
Betty Crocker? In Bahrain? Okay, my last illusion is destroyed. At least it’s one of the less annoying aspects of Americana to be circulated around the world, but I often find myself shaking my head. Especially at the thought of shopping at Wal-Mart in China. They probably have a MacDonald’s in Tibet or Uzbekistan by now! Is the Starbuck’s at the South Pole far behind? Sigh.
Fingers crossed that your internet installation goes smoothly, Haze. We’ve missed your drunken smooches and tales of crazy friends!
Off to get some work done before heading off to my appointment. Don’t have too much fun today, y’all! At least not unless I’m invited, too!
