[QUOTE=Spiderman] Do we have enough interest in starting a Mumper _marching_ band. Who can play (& by “play” I mean ‘make sound emanate from’) a tuba? [/QUOTE] Will you settle for me banging on the tuba with a hammer? Otherwise, I do have an air compressor. Funny coincidence that _How It’s Made_ is showing how tubas are made right now. ---

Dindin has been ingested. All is good. **gotti** I like the idea of a tuba and an air compressor. **Midget’s** neighbor would love it! 😃 ---

Supper was good. It’s dark outside, dammit! I think I’ll assume the recline position and waste the rest of the night. _ **MWAH!!** _ ---

We just found out that when we turn on our porch light the neighbors light comes on too. I wonder if the reverse is true. ---

Back from the doctor’s and the pharmacopia. I did get a little ribbing from the nurses for coming back one day after my initial appointment. I got a prescription for some antibiotics and tomorrow I’ll get some treatment for the Inevitable Conclusion to Antibiotics. I also managed to lock my keys in my car at the doctor’s office. :smack: Fortunately someone had a coathanger so I got my door open. One more day of this happy horsehockey and then I can has weekend too. ---

Also survived the irk day, grouchy customers and all. Co-irkers commented on that, too, so it wasn’t just my perception. I’m so tired that dinner is Boo-Berry cereal, since that’s about what I can handle pulling together. DH went with canned chili. ---

It’s 30-freekin’-degrees-F at the moment. For those of you who weren’t paying attention in school, that’s below freezing!!! :eek: I am not amused. I’m going to make some ginger snaps today. If they’re snappy enough, I’ll make a batch to take to Florida. That pretty much constitutes my big plans for the day. Bonus - the oven will warm the house a bit, so there’s that, even if the cookies suck. 😃 Still, _brrrrrrrrrrr_!! Happy Saturday, I guess. ---

Good Mornin’ Y’all! Up and caffienatin’. _YAWN_ 'Tis 43 Amurrkin out with a predicted high of 66 for the day. It’s supposed to warm up to high 70s by midweek next week and then back down to the low 60s for highs by next weekend. Plans for today include N.O.L. at the good Chinese place (OYKW is buyin’ so who am I to complain? :D) and to mow his yahd this afternoon cause it could stand a mowin’. Da cave yahd looks decent so no mowage shall ensure here. Ok, that’s all I got. I need more caffiene and to feed rumbly tummy. Or, maybe feed tummy and go back to bed for a bit. I’m willy-nilly cause it’s Sattidy. Happy Sattidy Y’all! ---

I’m still trying to decide and we all know how horrible I am at decisions. The room is 12 by 17 but there is a bay window at one end so it is narrower and the other end is a continuation of the hallway from the front door to the kitchen. > I only got a few political robo-calls. > I’m getting lots of robo-calls bill collector calls for the person who had this number before me. Since there is no person for me to tell to stop calling I guess I am going to have to listen to the entire message (even though they tell me if I am not the person they are calling I need to hang up - like it’s okay to call my phone and tell me to hang up if I’m not the person you are calling, you called me, and maybe you should make sure the number is correct before you do so) and get the call back number (calling the number they are calling from doesn’t work) and tell them to stop calling me. > I won’t be nice about it either, there should be an option to tell them they have the wrong number. Or maybe they should get the message when I keep hanging up. > I already cussed out one of the live person calls after telling them twice before that they have the wrong number and to stop calling here. > First time I’ll be nice, second time I’ll be firm, third time I’m done with your sorry stupid ass. Don’t give me any stupid BS either about the system taking several days to update, I don’t have time for your incompetence. > > I wonder if there is a call block option for land lines? Try taking the pills with eggnog–it is thicker and pushes them down better. Look for a call blocker–that way they only get one call, then they get the ban hammer! ---

I finished _O is for Outlaw_ - just zipping thru the alphabet! Supper tonight is grab whatever. I ain’t cooking. I might boil up some pasta if either of us wants to finish the leftover sketty sauce, but that’s as far as I’ll go. Equally excitatating day here. 😃 ---
