Blurf (I have now trained my tablet to autocorrect that, hooray!).

Firday night wasn’t as bad as expected- we wound up able to use the backstage area as a base, which had a comfy sofa, and just patrolled every 15 minutes to half an hour which between two of us gave me a lot of readin’ time. There wasn’t any trouble, as firday was the quiet day. Everyone was drnuk, including the management, but they were all jusy being nice, if loud.

I got switched onto another shift for sattiday night, luckily as that was expected to be the busy and really messy day, and it was only 2 ayy emm finish this morning instead of 9. I can deal with that.

I’m going to try stay awake til a reasonable time tonight, so see if I can get my sleep habits sane.

Does this bacon/runnin’ thing come with a vegetarian option? If it was halloumi, I’d be tempted. It’d take 5k to run it off, and I coukd always stroll the second half.

I’m wondering if I should try a craft fair this Christmas- there’s still stalls at little places available, and cheap, but I’m not sure if I’ll make enough, or if my stuff’d sell. I probably should give it a go, if I’d only have to sell one or two things to make back the stall cost.

I should go make some stuff anyway!

Howdy. Tis raining and thunderstorms today. I am almost packed for my trip to San Diego. I just have to add shoes and toiletries.

I stiff have half the day today to be lazy. I will have to get up and out the door around 0400 in the morning because I have to go to my office and set my out of office message which I forgot to do on Firday.

I am nervous about flying. And I am going to miss my Lucky Louie. He will be fine with his dad and dad will send me daily pictures. Little fellow tried to get into my suitcase. I have a very spoiled dog.

I’ve gotten spam email saying “Be a lethal weapon in bed.” Umm, that sounds awfully violent.

Had Bagel Bites for lunch. So bad for you but so good-tasting!!

I might eat an apple soon. If I eat things like that I can delude myself into thinking my diet is halfway healthy. (healthful?)

I had close to a three hour nappy poo just now. That’s what Benadryl[sup]TM[/sup] does to da bear.

**Sherpa** welcome! Good on you for supportin’ your wife like that. I hope she does it in fifteen.

**Spidey** after I ate the bacon I’d take a nap. I mean, what they gonna do about it? 😃

Thanks all, from what I guess I am known as the **Sherpa** for MMP Been here a long while, but did not know we had knick names. It works. More ways than one.

I’ll be taking pictures of my wife’s gear tonight, before packing it up. It’s mostly because I KNOW she has it, but she often worries that she left something behind.

It works well.

I can’t keep track of them. One of these Bozos went to the hospital and didn’t even remember it!

More than one of us went to the hospital.

Bagel Bites are good.

I’m having soup - Chunky Sirloin Burger - for late N.O.L. or early dinner depending on how you look at it. I should have ordered something. When I tried to get stuff out of the cabinet I got hit in the face by the shit the HFH have in there. That led to a lot of cussing and I shoved all their stuff to the back.

Five more days, only five more days.

I happen to be able to read backwards, the duality of **Sherpa** , hit me like a brick;)

Still better than being Nytol in bed.😉

Welcome **Sherpa** , and good luck to **Mrs. Sherpa**!

Hang in there, **sari**. And I can’t tell if that’s spam form a hippy Match site, or someone’s prostituting their puddy tat.

**Flytrap** , was that the time you were on 72 hour involuntary hold?😛

The mobile user you are trying to contact is either out of the service area, or owes us a great deal of money.

Went and hung out with the heathens this morning. Listened to some good music then got caught up in game day traffic on the way to my niece’s house for N.O.L. (serious veggies, mac and cheese and lemon bars for dessert, thank you very much) Back at home now resting, cause I’s tahred.

I think I shall now retire to the bedroom. More Benadryl[sup]TM[/sup] shall ensue. Dumb teevee should help the drowsiness to descend upon me.

Any one want to volunteer to start us off tomorrow? It would be ashame for there to be no MMP in which to post **MOOOOOOM’S** updates as a [del]pirate[/del] tourist on the high seas.
