Well, lessee, what have I done? I set up the tree - half the lights aren’t working and I didn’t feel like figuring it out, so it’s sitting there nekkid in the middle of the living room.

I ate some of my soup - it’s good.

My sweetie arrived in LA safely after 6 hours in the air.

I haven’t ironed. Don’t think I will, either.

I’m such a bum today!!

Lessee…I’ve done 3 or 4 loads of laundry.  
Got Mom’s Christmas gifts  
Took last set of pictures for Mom  
Transferred a bunch of pictures to the iBook so that I can get them organized and ready to print - still figuring out the most practical way to do this because iPhoto makes all these virtual folders that you can’t see when you’re uploading.  
Made zucchini and corn soup and had it for dinner with a quesadilla.  
Am figuring out what else to do.

I’m feeling somewhat more accomplished than I’d expected.

For some reason I read this as “ **I’m** sitting here nekkid in the middle of the living room”… :eek:

I’m sitting in a hotel room in Lexington, KY, located on Pink Pigeon Parkway. Whenever I happen to think of the address, I envision very gullible denizens of the feather boa crowd.

I mention it because this Residence Inn’s address is just begging for several **Swampy** \<snerk\>s.

Why does it always say, \*Last post by **Mr Bus Guy** on the forum page? And that the MMP ends at page four? I don’t understand.

Back from work. Sleepy. Must wash a lot of dishes, make dinner, and coerce Mr. Lissar into cleaning the microwave and tidying before bed.

Aren’t we missing a good page and a half? I could swear there was more stuff in here AFTER **Bobbio** ’s Pink Pigeon Parkway Post…

\<Emily Litella\>Never mind!\</EL\>

I just realized that someone went and confuzzled me by posting to the old MMP…
