So the closing manager was 2 and a half ours late. He better hope i don’t get that store, or he’s on _Double Secret Probation_. They are siding outside the apartment, so I got 45 minutes of Gordie singing The Song of His People, and the Mexicans singing back. And it repeats tomorrow. For 8 freakin’ hours. > [@SpazCat](#): > > The only one I’ve read was _C is for Cookie_.

haha, thanks **swampy and dogbutler**. 🙂 I’m wondering whether to get out the old alto clarinet (well, it’s actually rather new) or continue work on my music arrangement. Probably a bit of both. ---

I’m sleepy. I have to irk until 9 and then Sah-son and I will watch the next episode of _Homestuck_ It seems pointless to me but he likes it. I wish I had a whirlpool tub. Then I’d never get anything done, so maybe its better I don’t. ---

I don’t envy you dealing with a howling pooch, **doggio**. **Emily** , I don’t know about Canada, but turkey in all shapesand parts are available here year round. Sometimes when there’s a good deal on it, I use it in dishes where I normally would chicken. Da nephew and I went to my home today for a few things and to get the mail from my neighbor. It looks like I’ll be here until at least Tuesday. I want to go home. ☹ ---

Reporting in. Yay **Midget in the 5500 posts**. **Yeller** sounds like they were cool peeps. **Swampy**. Are we in ET or EST? Or I am missing another one? **midget**. Turkey anytime. **Mooommm** love to read. Time change has been weird in that I am waking up two hours earlier and staying up two hours later or more. Sleep is overrated. I tried to make a punkin pie once from scratch with a whole pumpkin. One time. **Doggio** You have closing manager on your list? Already. Take no crappola. I am very lucky with my employees. Only ever had two not so good and they came to me from another facility. One should not foist their problem employees’ off on others. Dang ole bum Knee. Also known as DOBK is much less swollen today and feeling better but I know it’s only temporary until the roids and lanacane injection wears off. **Mooommm** How is FCD’s Dad doing with his knee? Hello to All. **Boooobio**. Hope the itching is better. Is your liver ailment directly related to the dead gall bladder? Or it’s none of my business. \*\*Rosie. \*\*. Hey! ---

> [@SpazCat](#): > > The only one I’ve read was _C is for Cookie_. That was good enough for me. This is the best thing I’ve read all day! Today, I was restless so went to the casino, mainly for the casino-chartered bus ride out to the country and the cheap food. I’m not much of a gambler so I never win much. Can’t even bring myself to bet big with fake money online. There was a good, fun bunch on the bus today. One woman, who was originally from somewhere in Central America, I think, was talking about hiney being sweet. A woman originally from Germany said, “No, hiney is German for dumkopf. I don’t like calling people that.” A man, a plain ol’ 'Murrikin, said, “No, hiney is what you sit on.” This went on for a bit before someone finally said, “What you mean is honey. Honey is sweet.” The first woman said, “That’s what I said. Hiney is sweet.” I swear, there were either hidden cameras on that bus or I was traveling with a group of people who were trying to revive Vaudeville. Or maybe both. Well, off to bed to recharge the gray matter. I have to two more days to finish a book before it needs to be returned and I’m not quite halfway through. Hope I can read a bit more read tonight before the zzzzz’s come prowling. ---

Good Mornin’ Y’all! Up and caffienatin’. _YAWN_ 'Tis 59 Amurrkin out with a predicted high of 78 for the day. Nice day so no jacket to leave somewhere will be worn. 😃 **Butters** we are always in ET. Dependin’ on the time of the year, in addition, we will be in either EDT or EST. Hope the knee gets better soonest. **Crow** sounds like a good time was had by all. The only thing that would have been better would have been if a fistfight broke out on the bus. Consider that for next time. 😃 Ok, that’s all I got. I need more caffiene and rumbly tummy is hongry. Then, alas and alack, irk purtification must commence. Maybe email will be up and runnin’ when I get there. Never did act right yestiddy. Happy Thursday Y’all! ---

Its a holiday week for me, which means only 8 hours at the irk place instead of the usual 10. Apparently though, no one told the dogs, who were up and whining an hour before the alarm was set to go off. So I got up, took care of their issues, and went back to bed to stare at the ceiling for the remainder of the hour until it was time to get up. Not a good way to start off the day. Hopefully things get better from here Happy Thor’s Day! ---

> [@Buttercup\_Smith](#): > > I tried to make a punkin pie once from scratch with a whole pumpkin. One time. Same here, sorta. I never got past the cooking-the-punkin-chunks part. Stoopit chunks never got soft enough for me to remove the rind, so I tossed the whole mess into the woods. I assume the wild critters in my neighborhood ate well that night. ugh. Libby’s canned punkin is the only option now. It’s raining, and it has been raining for a while, tho I don’t know how long a while. All I know is it’s wet outside and still coming down. It should continue for a few more hours at least. Yay! My biggest plan for today is to de-meat the chickie carcass in the fridge and create a chickie salad. I may break out the vacuum cleaner, too. Or not. We’ll just see how it goes. Happy Thursday! ---

Blurf. TVCTPMO is toying with me today. Since I made a service appointment for the Family Truckster to get a brake job earlier in the week, of course it rains the day I take it in and I walk the rest of the way to the orifice. ---

Don’t be a baby, \*\*BBBobbio \*\*- you won’t melt! 😛 No rain at the moment in my end of the county. I hope there’s more to come - I was counting on a full day of shower. Stoopit weather!
