Easy! You make sure that the title ends with MMP. That’s all there is to it.

Just don’t pick a sucky topic… 😛

Just follow **swampy** ’s advice. You’ll be good

all you have to do, **$2.99** , is title it “here’s your MMP”, post at least 2 characters in the OP, and leave the rest to us.

Ok… I think I can do this. _deep breaths_

🙂

I may have been exageratin’ just a wee bit for y’all’s entertainment/benefit.

Thank you for the very good advice, though. I appreciates it 🙂

Home from the party.

Picked up friend one and we went to see friend two and had burgers, hot dogs, meatballs, baked beans, a bunch of salads and a Spiderman cake that makes your lips and tongue turn blue.

Seems the latest style among the young girls is wearing strap less sundresses with a bra so your bra straps show. Lucky for the one girl because she had a wardrobe malfunction and the entire top of her dress fell down.

So now I am home and getting in some irk. I hope I sleep well tonight, I’m tired enough.

Baking with the HFUNs was a blast! And I’ve eaten my weight in bread products today. It was good to see them, though. Mr. and Mrs. HFUN brought the girls down and then I drove them back. And I got the chance to tell them one on one about my new boyfriend. 🙂

So I figured if I told them that I might as well tell you guys too. He’s not much like Dave at all (which I think is a good thing) but he knows about him and understands that he’s a part of my life and that the HFUNs are, too. I haven’t figured out what to call him here but I think it should have to do with the fact that he travels for work and has the most amazing singing voice that I’ve ever heard. I am, of course, biased, but if you heard him sing, you’d be biased, too. So I guess for now we’ll call him Roaming Troubadour! 😃

Yay, **Sticky**!

Tonight’s score was: Fireflies 20, Bats 8. We saw 22 bats last night, but I think it’s much easier to spot them when there are two of you. Brother is out of town today, so I had to walk by myself. Really pretty evening, though. Lots of pink clouds at first, then all kinds of stars.

Off to sleepy-bye. Could use one more day of weekend, but that’s not happening this week…

Hugs all.
