Coors Diet fits into this category also. ☹

JDD’s mother has been moved to a private room in the horsepistol. Great news! He called to tell me that, and to let me know she said, “Tell the boys they come and visit now that I’m in a room.” OYKW and I are “the boys.” JDD said to consider that a royal summons to meet with The Queen. 😃 We shall go visitate in a little while.

OYKW got us some chikin egg foo yung young from the good Chinese place. 'Twas teh nummy!

\*\*Seek to assert your devotion when a worthy situation arises. \*\*

Feel free to \<snerk\> away!

Beastloaf and mac 'n cheese have been made. I also went ahead and cooked the field peas with snaps. Go Me!

I shall assist with beerverage consumption after we have our royal audience.

And Sharp’s and O’Doul’s. They’re what most of my non-drinking cohorts have when they want a beer-like beverage.

**Swampy** , that is one of the few fortunes that is _not_ \<snerk\>worthy. It is a most worthwhile & useful fortune:

Dear Flying [del]Speghetti[/del], [del]Spagetti[/del], [del]Spagheti[/del] Pasta Monster, I [del]pray[/del] assert my devotion to you in the hopes that you will let me:  
[ul]  
[li]Get out of this ticket[/li][li]Pass this test[/li][li]Have her go on a date with me[/li][/ul]

Remember, you drank all those beers on the last page. Maybe you left them on the wall.

Or maybe the designated driver hid them from you.

Stoopit securitatin’ boss got pissy at me. Big surprise. Apparently he wanted me to do shift that finished at 5. In the freakin’ morning. Starting 12 midday at the football, then driving across town to the other place at 6.30.

Needless to say, that is _not_ happening; I’m home and I’m having an early night.

Tomorrow I’m off, off, free! I intend to enjoy it.

Howdy Y’all! We have had an audience with the Queen. She seemed most pleased to have us grace her royal presence. 😃

I just put the beastloaf in the oven to cook. Beastloaf tartare did not appeal to anyone when I suggested it, so bake it I shall. It shall be followed by cornbread. The mac 'n cheese will do it’s thang in the convection oven. I shall also bake the peach cobbler in the convection oven whilst we dine. Of course, the peas will need to be reheated. Go Me!

**Spidey** I already knew that about soft kitty. I’m surprised to know Jim Parsons has never seen _Star Trek_. _Doctor Who_ I can understand because, (don’t read this **rosie and doggio** ) I’ve never seen it myself.

Ok, guess I should do stuff. Or surf teh intartoobz.

Happy Saturday!

It’s cold outside.  
Then again I am cold all the time anyway.

Movage was achieved this morning. We were running late but my nieces husband was running even later so it was okay.  
My living room looks more like a living room now and the rug I bought does not work. I may move it to the kitchen and buy something smaller for the living room.

I’m tired, I should go to irk but I think maybe a nap first.

No beer for me, I think one would put me to sleep.

I think I should hop into the shower and de-leaf myself for dinner. Gotta be presentable to go into public - sweatpants and a t-shirt ain’t gonna do it tonight.

I know I am tired when I am too tired to be pissed.

I just got a letter from the 2nd? mortgage company telling me that my payment is late.  
This is so much bullshit, my mortgage is being sold all over the damn place. The woman at the third place told me it was definitely their mortgage. They accepted my payment.

These f’ers need to get their act together.  
I forget who handles this crap, states attorney?  
I had a problem years ago with a mortgage company, all I had to do was threaten to call the problem was resolved.  
At that time I had two properties and both had been sold to the same mortgage company. They took money out of the escrow account for mortgage A to pay the insurance on Mortgage B. Then they told me since I didn’t have insurance on property B (since that escrow wasn’t touched they assumed there was no insurance) they bought a policy for me that cost 3x as much for only partial coverage.  
No number of phone calls could get it fixed, one threat to call the states attorney and wow! it was fixed in less than an hour.

I am so tired of screw ups and having to fix their mistakes.  
I don’'t know why they ever try to screw with me, you’d think by now the word would be out that this woman isn’t going to put up with your shit.

\*Note to self - don’t piss off **sari** …  
\*  
😃

I’m all clean and dressed in a reasonable outfit for going out to dinner. Being clean feels sooooooo good - I don’t get people who go days or weeks without a shower. I’ve never encountered one, but I’ve heard stories - ugh! Anyway, we’ll feed Higgs, then head to beautiful downtown LaPlata beside the railroad tracks. Gee, ya think that’s why the restaurant is named Casey Jones???

I’s hongree - I hope the 5-star reviews are accurate.
