{{{Rosie}}} Well, shit. I hope you feel better soonest. Feel free to order lots of stuff from Ruble’s area if that will help. 
Pain shared is pain halved. Or something like that.
Swampy you failed to say Ole’ after enchilada 
Home - yay! It was drizzly as I drove back. Spousal unit is snoozing, as are the critters, so it’s quiet in here. Dunno what I’m going to do for supper. But I do know I’ll probably go to bed early.
Yep, great excitement at FairyChatEstates…

It’s my day orfe today. I decided to ignore all the stuff I need to do (clean my room, do the washing, shop for presents…) and go to to Glastonbury village to snigger at the hippies (and rummage through the silly shops), then try and see a starling murmuration. There’s a place near there that is known for being a good spot, but you need to get the timing just right (dusk), and the weather good (clear and still), and there’ never a guarantee that the starlings will actually show up, and it’s about an hour away from mine anyway, so I’ve just never got round to it, or I’ve not been able to find the right spot when I have tried. Today though, the weather was perfect, and the info centre could tell me where to go.
I reckon at least half a million birdies showed, so, though they didn’t do the dense-flocks-that-look-like-monsters thing that they sometimes do, I can’t complain!
In tomorrow, they I’m orfe for three whole days, so I figured I can do the boring stuff then. It’s been a long week, and I needed some fun.
Enchiladas (OLÈ just for Butters :p) have been ingested. OYKW got home about three-thirty and is exhausted. Some kinda traffic snarl just out of Demopolis, Alabammy and one just outside of Monkey Town delayed him about an hour. He’s soakin’ in the whirlpool tub as I post and says he’s goin’ to bed and pass out. Poor thing!
I don’t get this Giving Tuesday thing. I’ve gotten several emails. Those that I give to I give to and don’t want solicitations. They got sent to spam. I have my pet organizations and charities already thankyouverymuch. Howzzat for grumpy old man!
I was thinkin’ every time is smells depress the button on the aerosol (which makes noise); he’ll get the hint.
No, red, I’m not a placekicker. I said punt - gotta drop 'em as one brings one’s leg up. 
Besides, I’m on Butters good list.
There was many, many hundreds of [del]pigeons[/del] flying rats as we tried to leave NYC last week. Some percentage (mebbe 150-200) would take flight & then settle in again but they all wouldn’t go at once.
You forgot, “Get [del]off[/del] out of my [del]lawn[/del] inbox!”
Get better, Rosie! (guess what episode of BBT is playing right now? Hint: someone is sick & Penny is singing a certain song to him.)
I worked, I came hoem, I napped.Getting ready to watch hockey.
They had a sale, so I bought another jersey.
Congrats!
That sucks, rosie.
Get well, quick.
Rockin’, so you got screwed by your surgeon? :p;)
nuts, my last apartment was a good place to watch the migration of the starlings in the autumn. I was on the second floor with a balcony and they would arrive with all of their chatter and take over the trees on the side of the building where my deck was.
spidey, as long as no pups are harmed…you’re forgiven.
The floors are mopped. Tonight’s studio project is putting names on the Xmas stockings. I’m debating whether to use glitter glue or cut some lettering out of self stick vinyl.
Spidey they can get off’n mah facebook as well. This Tuesday Money Beg thing is just all over everywhere!
never heard of it until now
guess i’ve been lucky
have to type one handed because somebody thinks he’s special
Awww, is Sah-son a gűd boy, yesheis. 
{{{{{{Rosie}}}}}}
This is the only place I have ever heard about this. Weird.
Feel better soonest Rosie
I am jealous! How is the new job going? Still good?
Does he purr? Does his name rhyme with “bat”?
We’re at sushi. I am breaking my no electronics at dinner rule. Tonight I am trying to take the purple out my hair myself. We’ll see…
Thinking of important birthdays, today my mother and I visited the cemetery where my father is buried. We placed blue and yellow flowers on the grave(his high school colors from Buffalo, New York). It’s been over two years since he was killed, and I still miss him so much.
Bleah. I will be THRILLED when our new teammates emerge from the training nest and start taking calls. There are too few of us, especially from 1500-1800. My callers have been civilized lately (at least I’m dodging the “caller is a screaming abusive jerk” bullet), but there are just too damn MANY of them. I need more than two seconds between calls!
For bonus points, tomorrow is the early day. For some not-yet-explained-to-me reason, if the last calendar day of the month is a weekday, we get to go to irk on East Coast time (I’m in California). This means my normal 0900-1800 shift becomes 0500-1400. I swear if there’s a zombie apocalypse that early, no one’s going to notice! The zombies will blend in very well with the call center workers up stupid early.
Gotta remember to get next month’s transit pass tomorrow. At least I’ll have a shot at an AM Crunchwrap for “lunch”.
No, CAT, who thinks every time he pats my shoulder I am supposed to pet him, and every time I go into the kitchen I am supposed to feed him, and every time I eat I am supposed to share with him
and that the world revolves around him
Sunny - how did you know?
I haz kittehs! They are demanding little tyrants. For some reason I have 3 of them. I think it’s because they are cute. Somehow the cute outweighs the crazy. Also, one of them sleeps with 'Beamer every night like it’s her Job. As soon as I kiss him goodnight, she jumps on the bed and curls up.
Sitting here with dye remover in my hair, waiting to see if the purple comes out. Good times.
(((((rosie))))), feel better soon 
I went to the gym last night for a session with my personal trainer. We had a laugh along the way but I’m sure I will be feeling the effects of the new exercises tomorrow. I’ve got homework too, that’s a novelty!
It was -4 when I left home this morning, it explains why the kittehs didn’t want to move off the bed when the alarm went off. I will have to scrape the icyness off the car tonight before I go out, technically it’s pub night but I am off to see a couple of bands tonight instead so it now Inglorious Night instead.
Blurf. Slept horribly. Seems I was in twilight sleep all night thinking about the election. My brain just can’t accept it.
