Like a Virgin -- The Noob MMP

Gordie fears the Fairy Chat Monster.

Up, caffeinated, off to irk.

Up since 4:45, sipping coffee and catching up on all the 'Dope I missed since bedding down at 8:30 last night. Off to run Saturday errands and grab my weekly treat of Mickey D’s breakfast.

No snakes yet, but the day is young.

Up after a megabizarro dream that started out at my former office and ended up with me being accused of being a terrorist… then Scruffy barked and woke me up.

**doggio **- I forgot about that monster! I must try to make a larger version.

But not today. The plumbing repairs were successful at last! So today starts with cleaning up the basement so we can paint without tripping over everything. I’ve got to sand and paint a small section of wall in the studio so **FCD **can finish installing my new sink and counter. Then on to the main workshop to whiten the walls. Covering the blue is tougher than I’d expected - I dread what the dark green will be like. Regardless, it’ll be finished this weekend.

I’m kinda hoping tomorrow we’ll make an easy day of it. I need an easy day…

Happy Saturday!!

Good Mornin’ Y’all! Up and caffienatin’ YAWN 'Tis 75 Amurrkin out with a predicted high of 97. If’n I didn’t know better I’d think it’s August. :smiley:

I wanted to put up a “No Snakes” sign in the yahd but I was reminded that snakes can’t read so it wouldn’t do any good. Stoopid illiterate snakes!

I have no idea what today holds. I could and should mow but I probably won’t. I do foresee some pool time, however.

Ok, off in search of more caffiene and brekkies. Rumbly tummy is very demandin’ right now.

Happy Sattidy Y’all!

Up, barely awake. Boob Evans beckons for lackluster big brekkie today.

VunderBob’s Kickass canning event continues tomorrow, when I make salsa. A guaranteed long day and big mess in the kitchen.

Up, awake. Contemplating breakfast.

More news as it develops.
:smiley:

Hugs.

Almost forgot: Time’s list of top 50 websites of 2011

I have a ham and mushroom and spinach quiche in the oven, and some tamales in the steamer! :wink:

I had already planned the quiche, but I got some homemade tamales from this kid selling them at the bar last night. So quiche and chicken tamales for brekkies! Yum!

I see the dog park in the near future,too. Lucy’s been bugging me all morning, trying to be a big ol’ lap dog. But Gawd it’s hot out there already.

Football tonight!

I love Saturdays. ::sighs contentedly::

I’m up and the coffee just finished brewing. Coffee will be breakfast; it almost always is.

We’re celebrating a friend’s birthday today at another couple’s house, so we’ll be heading over there this afternoon.

We have a couple of errands to run today before the party, but I think that’s about it.

swampy, write the sign in Parseltongue. :smiley:

Up, tomorow is my first day off work in almost two weeks, and it’s only because I gave my shift away and am taking a day of leave. My first pool party of the year!

Yay for pool party donkeybear! I’ve been in the pool some and on the puter some. A friend is comin’ over in an hour to hang at the pool with us and whatever else might happen.

Up, quashed the hangover the the bottle of wine gave me, went to the farmers market, been to Wally world, skyped with the parents.

Now it is time for lunch then to tackle the closets etc and get the house sorted out.

104 deg today and 3 million % humidity in the OKC!

Happy Saturday everyone!

mmmmm - your location is wrong!

I hear ya on the humididity. Sheesh! It was already over 90° when we left the doggie park at 10:00.

Looks like we’re not going to the game after all. The guy didn’t get the tickets or something. Oh well - we’ll have movie night instead!

Now - what’s for dinner… I had planned to make Orange Chicken and wild rice. We shall see.

Done for the day! Daughter painted the bottom half of the walls in grey, and I finished the first coat of white on the top half. Then I painted the wall in my studio. **FCD **put my sink in place, then ran out of steam, poor guy. So about 11, we went to Red Robin for lunch, then to Petco to get a new fish tank for daughter. She headed home, and FCD and I went to Lowe’s. I got some reject paint for my cabinets - $5 for a gallon of Valspar, so yay! He got the mid-wall molding for his shop. We just got home.

He’s now crashed. As soon as I finish reading my daily LOLCats and such, I’m going to assume the knit position. The yarn I’d ordered for my brother’s afghan arrived yesterday, along with one skein to finish the afghan I’d been working on. So I’ll prop my feet up and commence to afghanin’… :smiley:

Or I’ll take a nap. Either way.

:smiley:

Last week there was a snake in my yard that couldn’t read either. Sadly for them, what they couldn’t read was the “Do not put your head under the lawn mower while it is running” warning sticker.

Fortunately (?) for me, I was using the catcher bag instead of mulching.

So, using your mower, you chopped the hiss out of it?

Chopped Snake!!! :eek::eek::eek: Ok, that is better than live snake that wants to eat you alive, which is what I think all snakes want to do. Still… :eek::eek::eek:

Much pool time fun ensued. Friend liked gettin’ … ummmmmm… “appreciated”.

This is your daily TMI from the swamps. :smiley:

I should probably fix that :smiley:

We now have a walk-in closet you can actually walk-in, bathroom sinks you can use, a dresser that has clothes in it as opposed to the floor, spare beds made up and a printer we can now use as I finally found the power cable. Busy day.

We were going to go to the movies but sloth won out so mr ems is making chili. Tomorrow we hit Sam’s club and get the freezer stocked up with meat and we should be be good to go for meal choices/options etc other than the necessary perishables.

Left the lights on in my car :smack: Had to get a jump start from security.
donkeybear, swampy, tomorrow is pool day. Hopefully my “just friend” will be there. :smiley:

Good Mornin’ Y’all! Up and caffienatin’ YAWN ‘Tis 75 Amurrkin with a predicted high of 96. We got a bunch of rain last night! I haven’t been out to check the unofficial rain gauge in the back yahd but it rained hard for two hours so I’m guessin’ a couple of inches of rain at least. YAY!

Yay for closet and bathroom sinks and printers that work mmmmmms!

I need more caffiene stat! Plus I should go ahead and purtify for deheathenization so OYKW can do so also. He does not know it yet, but he’s takin’ me to brekkie. :smiley:

Happy Sunday Y’all!

I should think, after all these years of Sundays of you saying “OYKW doesn’t know it yet…” that he does know.

i fell asleep watching TV lest evening, woke up about 10pm, figured I’d surf&play until the SNL rerun came on . . . I haven’t left the room (except for conversations with Nature, and the demands of Her highness The Cat) since.
