Started this one day last week but life got in the way and I never got back to last week’s mmp. > [@(Old) Falling Into The MMP](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/old-falling-into-the-mmp/1032714/192): > > Throw in a jug of tequila, a clean(ish?) trash can, several dozen college students, and you got yerself a 🎵 partttttaaaaaayyyyyyyy! 🎶 But it’s not a lot of fun hugging the porcelein throne afterwards. > [@(Old) Falling Into The MMP](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/old-falling-into-the-mmp/1032714/199): > > Peter Frampton guitar solos. saw Frampton at a big ole college bar in 1974; quite the night. > [@FairyChatMom](#): > > Happy Moanday, and Happy Labor Day to those who are enjoying a day off! Bella and I walked down to the office on Labor Day and I worked for 1.75 hrs to get 9/1 and 9/2 recorded. IT had taken down the financial software so I wasn’t able to work most of last week and I didn’t want to have to work a full day today, which I couldn’t because of Hubs Dr appt. Bella was a very good girl. Each time I went out of my office to walk to the copier/printer, Bella waited patiently since when I came back, I would give her a salmon mini treat. She received pets from several of the guys who were in so she was a happy contented girl. > [@pullin](#): > > First again? Ha! Insomnia? Looking ahead: daughter and girlfriend are going camping this coming weekend so we’ll have Bella Sat-Mon. I just had Bella Friday evening through yesterday evening as daughter went to Chicago for a wedding and Hubs went up north to visit with one of his buds. We have spent Thanksgiving the last about 15ish years whereever daughter has been domiciled (Fargo, Chicago, Metro Detroit) except for 2020. She asked if it would be ok to celebrate on Wednesday, the day before Thanksgiving, this year because she and girlfriend would like to fly to Texas on Thanksgiving morning to celebrate with girlfriend’s family. I said that would be fine as it wouldn’t be very nice to monopolize all the holidays. > [@FairyChatMom](#): > > So the main thing we look ahead to is avoiding retail establishments during the shopping frenzy that is December. Who’s with me?? I try to avoid all retail establishments except for Kroger through the entire year. > [@Paintcharge](#): > > Ms Peach is being a little shit and refusing to come inside from the backyard Did you offer a premium treat? As a parent I understand that bribery is not a great method; however, perhaps different with a pet. > [@Mollie\_Magill](#): > > some place a little more gender diversity friendly Illinois? at least in Chicagoland and perhaps other parts > [@SCAdian](#): > > If someone points out that it’s after 1200, I just say “It’s morning somewhere!” Thanks, I’m going to adopt this. **lily** Have a great enjoyable time on your trip. > [@purplehorseshoe](#): > > a slightly spicy sesame/ginger/garlic crunch sounds like something that was on my salad from Panera last Friday > [@FairyChatMom](#): > > as if that dog wouldn’t eat poop out of the cat box. Bella wants to know what’s wrong with that, and also why the cat box was moved downstairs with the door to the basement latched so it’s only open an inch or so (so only the cat can get through). > [@Taters](#): > > It’ll all be razed, and for now, a million-square-foot warehouse will cover the land it stands on. better a warehouse than an AI Data Center or a detainment facility The exciting news is Hubs had his final childhood vaccination today, MMR, so now he’s all vaccinated up. He only needs to return for annual check-ups now at the Stem Cell Clinic, although the Dr said he needs to stay on the anti-virus medication at least through December to forestall shingles. --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/old-looking-ahead-in-the-mmp/1032875)._
