I killded the MMP again! :eek:

Pizza has been ingested. All is good. I am, however, disappointed to learn that one cannot order banana flavored spider aigs as a toppin’. I guess exotic toppin’s are not to be had in these parts. 😃

Well I had a pleasingly random evening. I’ve volunteered for this walkabout play thingy in the city centre for the next few days. It goes round several different venues in a few different groups, all following their own storyline; today I was helping out the group who have somehow got permission to use the local church. This involved me playing with the church bell 😃

I’m not sure I can make the bananananana pudding, as though I do have multiple banananananas, I don’t think I can buy vanilla pudding here- we do have [Yorkshire pudding](https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=yorkshire+pudding&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-GB:official&client=firefox-a&um=1&ie=UTF-8&hl=en&tbm=isch&source=og&sa=N&tab=wi&ei=pOp6UfLuGYWjPeLtgTA&biw=1280&bih=681&sei=p-p6UaKdKsSSOMPugJgO), but I don’t think it’d come out quite the same. I’m also almost completely out of spider eggs.

I shall maybe attempt banananana bread tomorrow, but I’m going to a beekeeping thingy in the day, then I’m doing something else random for this play in the evening, so I might not have time.

You’ve been watching _Kiss of the Spider Woman_ again.  
Remember what happened the last time you did that.

I want that one.

**ShinyCat** , I’m terrible with voices on the phone. I still get the sales guys mixed up and sometimes I can’t tell She Who Must Be Obeyed from her minion. Everyone sounds the same on the phone. There is Male on the Phone and Female on the Phone. Child on the Phone I can’t even differentiate by gender until they hit puberty and the boys’ voices change.

I made a mistake like this once that was so horrible and embarrassing, my only consolation was that the other person was soon to leave the US and I would probably never see her again.

Evening and happy weekend!

**Rosie** good luck with the move!

We are packing Monday then loading the truck Tuesday . Well I say _we_what I mean is the moving company will be doing the hard work. Then we head to Houston Wednesday. All we need to do this weekend before we hand the keys back to the leasing agent is wash the windows outside and tidy up the flower bed at the front which wil be done tomorrow. Then Sunday we pack a few bits of clothes and the things we don’t want them to carry. Fun!

We are so ready for this.

I have screened out/skipped over all mention of spiders/spider eggs on food etc : shudder :

Greetings from Dewey Beach! It was a beautiful day and a nice ride here, and after driving to Ocean City and back, then having a sub for supper, we’re in for the night. Not many channels at this motel so not many TV options - oh well - we’ll probably crash early anyway.

No spiders sighted en route or in our room, so yay!

Tomorrow, we plan to walk the boardwalk and find a good local place for lunch. And who knows what else - we’re having a mini-vacation! 😃

Tomorrow is remodel the laundry room day. About a month ago, DH started ripping up the floor while gorked on fentanyl, so now it’s time to finish the job while neither of us are on narcotics.

They were believed to be extinct. This is cool!

An interesting thought. I suspect that our cats would lick the spider appendages clean and bring them to me as a present.

Buy him his very own copy of _Kiss of the Spider Woman._ Or a shiny new key chain. You know him better than I, of course.

Good Shabbes, Rosie and everyone. 🙂

I haven’t been to OC in too long, but I hear Secrets is good.

I liked Cadillac Jacks, but I don’t know if it’s still there.

I recall reading your post about that. I believe I asked then, as now, “Did he bring enough for everybody?”
