> [@FairyChatMom](#): > > **gt** , glad it got there safely. I’m sure you noticed that you have to find the exact spot for the lid to fit or it won’t. I’m still not too good with the lid-making skill. But I’m glad you’ve got a good use for it. > > In my first class, I made a really, really short piece - kinda like the saucer that goes under a flower pot. It’s on my desk at work holding paper clips. Which is cool. > > So, **Dolores** , have you gotten yours yet? It did have a bit farther to go… Not yet. There was a package on the doorstep last night, and I was hoping it was from you. Turns out it was for my hubby - from [The Handyman Club of America.](http://www.handymanclub.com/) It was full ads for club-type stuff they want you to buy. Like a ring of all things! Can’t you just see them all at Home Depot, surreptiously checking out whether someone is wearing their Handyman Club ring? (I’m not making fun, Tom actually said that.) He joined the club for the free stuff and a weekly magazine. It has some good articles! I just stopped at the little taqueria for a breakfast taco. So very good - chorizo and scrambled egg and pico de gallo. The tortillas are to die for… ---

Even worse, when I clicked on that link, I got all my hopes up because it says it’s in Albany … Albany, _Georgia_. :: shakes fist :: I took you this long to figure that out? And they say the younger generation is smarter than us. I had the best chocalate I’ve ever eaten last week. It was a Nestle’s Dark Chocolate Crunch bar. I don’t know why that was the best (kind of like saying Maxwell House is the world’s best coffee), but it was. Our e-mail server fried last night. Apparently we had a power failure here at Technical Thingies, Inc, and the battery back-up wasn’t studly enough to handle it. But at least we’ve got Internet access again, after only two hours of being down. ---

I’m trying to shed those durn holiday pounds by keeping the calories under 1,500 a day. Weekends are hardest but swimsuit weather is only a couple months away. :eek: No chocolates for this puggy. More later. Tupug ---

Hey I raised a zombie you guys. A thread I submitted for Threadspotting last July, apparently, just now made it in. It’s the Suck thread. Hee hee. It’s funny. We have a giant bag of dark chocolate pellets in the cupboard–and that thing practically screams. It’s for the chocolate fountain (remember that?). I had to duct-tape its damn mouth shut, for I too am anticipating swimsuit weather and I’ll not spend another summer cursing my fat thighs and beeg butt. Where the heck is **Rue**?? We need our pus fix around here. :eek: 😃 ---

Good morning one and all. Last night we went out to Chinese. Tonight, we’re going to a movie. Today is our 20th wedding anniversary, so we stretched out the anniversary over two days. We just can’t seem to work, AND do dinner and a movie on the same day. **Mr. Taters** needs to get up too early for us to do that. This is all fine by me, because, usually by 9:00 pm I’m pretty tuckered out myself. Quit with all the chocolate talk; I have dark chocolate kisses in my drawer and I’m doing my level best to ignore them. I keep them there for our acting chief. He LUURVES his chocolate. **Bumba,** how’s the mouth doing today? Maybe you bit yourself during your sleep. I guess I better do some work now. ---

20 years, eh? Ready to breathe deep and take the plunge for another 20? Go, you! Need to find a sweater to wear to work. I am slumming it today and wearing black cords. Wore dressy herringbone tweed pattern slacks yesterday. This clothes for work thing could get harder–I am used to scrubs. ---

Yay, **Mr. and Mrs. Taters**! Happy anniversary! **eleanor** , I being dressy today- I am wearing yoga pants and a small t-shirt. 😃 They’re my cleaning or exercising clothes. They’re aslo super comfy. Yestday I went bra shopping and to Costco. I got four nice new bras for $50! I was especting to get maybe two and spend $60, so I’m happy. I also got out of Costco only spending $80. That’s really good. The usual cover charge is about $100. I have a whole roast chicken in the fridge. I got a bag of frozen strawberries, too, so I’m looking for recipes. We’ll probably make smoothies and Clare College Mush (whipped cream, meringues, and strawberries), but does anyone have yummy strawberry recipes? For frozen berries? ---

> [@eleanorigby](#): > > Ok…that is really weird. I was thinking of wearing a purple sweater! > is there an MMP mind meld that happens? Usually just for dinner. Had a mind-meld last week with a cube-neighbor. Not a co-worker, as he’s in a different department. We both showed up wearing essentially the same outfit. I was wearing light-brown (their traditional color after a few dozen washings) Carhartt pants and a brownish-greenish shadow plaid flannel shirt with the sleeves rolled up, and he was in tan Dockers and a brownish-greenish plaid short sleeve shirt. :eek: ---

I prefer Dark Dirty Sex myself. Just sayin’. Make of it what you will. **Rifty** did the fact that I constantly allude to living in Jawja not give you a clue that I do not live in Albany, NY? 😃 I’ve been at the art museum all morning assisting with getting stuff set up for tonight. I gotta go back around fourish to do the rest. I’ll have my garb all ready to don for the evening. Tis my plan to go somewhere and grab a drink or three before this gets going tonight. The way I see it, it’ll just make the evening that much better. \*\* HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO THE TATERS!!! \*\* ---

If frying bacon is a part of what you had in mind tonight, it’s a good thing hubby will be wearing the apron. Actually, a round of “Nekkid Chef” sounds kinda fun… I’ll have to keep that in mind. 😃 ---
