Was it a boy cat?
(I think I’m channeling my inner sexist woman. :eek: )
Two things Rigs; Be sure to tell her no talking on the cell phone while the car is moving.
And be sure she understands that that particular car requires premium gasoline, and no, it’s not alright to put in regular once in a while to save money.
Good luck to you. You’ve got a tough road ahead of you.
I tweaked my back in the shower this morning while shampooing my hair! Who knew shampoo was so dangerous? I’m currently walking around like an old man, which I suppose is appropriate, especially after a long life of being rode hard and put away wet. (You may <snerk> Swampy, 'cause there was plenty of that too, along the way.)
We had lo mein again last night, except with pork this time.
Wifey thought that my sauce (gravy?) was too sweet the other night so she made the sauce (gravy?) this time and put in some black bean sauce (gravy?) instead of the sweet chili sauce (gravy?) I used the other night. It was nummy, too.
FYI, her sauce was:
4 tbsp hoisin sauce (gravy?)
3 tbsp soy sauce (gravy?) (Aloha Shoyu)
1 tbsp black bean sauce (gravy?)
~ 1/2 tsp hot pepper sauce (gravy?) (Pick-a-Peppa sauce)
about 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes.
how’s the picture quality? I’m debating what toy to buy myself with this year’s refund. My iPod is not quite a year old, but it’s audio only. My PDA is two years old and Palm doesn’t even list it under current products.
I just realized - I’m wearing bright colors and I have that wake tonight. Is that gauche? I have a charchol grey shawl/ruana but it’s kind of ratty looking (I will not have a chance to go home and change beforehand)
anyrose -I don’t think it’s gauche. A wake to me is not like a funeral. IMO, people usually go straight from work to wakes, so basically people appear in anything. I have seen people at wakes in uniform etc. It matters more that you care enough to go–that is what will be remembered (unless your job involves wearing a lobster costume etc).
I am seriously sick this afternoon. Stupid me–I have been somewhat upset about All Things Marital lately and long story short, I took a “stimulant laxative” to cure what ailed me.
Note to self: it works and it ain’t pretty. Stick with increasing fiber and a stool softener…
Well, I thought donkeybear had it, but you win rigs.
I got a phone call from the liver doc. The meds are in. Treatment starts for sure next Friday. I’m not quite as antsy as the last time, but hoo boy, I’m not exactly relaxed either.
Poke chops for dinner! (Gotta change the subject.) And smashed taters (N.O.T.), and GRAVY from the recipe somebody posted way early - about a roux or something… I’ll find it. And green beans.
It’s Friday! Yay!!! And I was home at a decent hour!!! Double yay!!!
I’m voting with Rebo on the TMI thing. rigs is definitely the winner…
rosie, I don’t think I told you how sorry I am about your friend’s hubby. It’s probably too late, but I agree that you should be fine at the wake.
I’m on the “don’t care for casinos” side of the fence. Really don’t like any game places, whether with real gambling or not. I have a friend who periodically goes to Dave & Busters just for fun. I don’t get it. I like some computer games, but somehow that whole games all over the place setting underwhelms me. Never been to an actual casino. Not planning to go anytime soon.
Lissla, giving up the internet would be bad. We would be disconcerted by your absence. Also, we’d have no idea how the husbands were doing. And what about QuasiDaughter and Other QuasiDaughter? We couldn’t go all of lent without hearing about them.
I have decided that I will be returning to my regular exercise routine this lent. I’m already sort of warming up, but starting Wednesday, it’s at least 30 minutes of walking time at least 6 days a week.
Lo mein sauce sounds yum. Has anyone else noticed that this MMP is a recipe book unto itself?
I think I’ve only had grits once and it was a REALLY long time ago. Didn’t really impress me, but I’m willing to give them another chance sometime.
Oh, and rigs, I think everyone else has added the stuff I would have added to your rules. The maintenance class sounds like a really good idea to me.
Sorry about the TMI-I really hate talking about bodily functions (it’s true).
Daughter is home and has a copy of the rules. Daughter warmed my heart when she said she is going next week to see about a guard job at the ice rink (she used to be a skater).
I like initiative in a teen. School comes first, but income is a close second. Car comes home tonoc.
============================================================
The owner of a drug store walks in to find a guy leaning heavily
against a wall.
The owner asks the new clerk: “What’s with the guy over there by the
wall?”
The new clerk responds: “Well, he came in here this morning to get
something for his cough. I couldn’t find the cough syrup, so I gave him an entire
bottle of laxatives.”
The owner, wide-eyed and excited shouts: “You idiot! You can’t treat a
cough with a bottle of laxatives!”
The new clerk calmly responds: “Of course you can! Look at him, he’s
afraid to cough.”
