Possibly not.
Bobbio, you’re not supposed to snort it. Ice cream, even sugar free ice cream, is for eating. And you won’t suffer nearly so many brain freezes that way.
Ow ow ow ow. Snorting ice cream. Ow ow ow.
I’ve just read the tonsil stones thread. I am simutaneously a) disgusted, and b) on the verge of poking at my tonsils with a q-tip.
Barbeque sammiches. Good thought. I’ll do that. It’s about two pounds of beef, so that’ll keep me (and Mr. Lissar, and assorted roving Husbands) in sammiches until Saturday.
I went across the street and got some dried lavender and made sachets and refilled my lavender jar. Envy me my exciting life. Actually, this has been the most pleasant do-nothing vacation I can remember since high school. Very relaxing.
swampy the list of hurricane names that Draelin linked to.
He may well be on other lists, but that’s the one I meant.
We’re back - actually, we’ve been back about an hour and all is well, all things considered. Sweetie has the day off tomorrow - his boss is a good guy! We go back in 2 weeks for the next shot, and I guess at that time, he’ll make arrangements for the 3rd shot. I hope this takes care of it. <fingers crossed>
In other news, I sold my porch swing. Now, if I could just sell the closet doors that we took down…
FCM you sold your porch swing? :eek: Why? Don’t y’all like to swing? Ok, I don’t have a porch swing but I do have a swing at my pool. It’s from the Martha Stewart (pre prison) collection. I loves my swing! Even in the Winter I like to go out and sit in my swing. Course we have many, many mid 60’s “winter” days here to do so. I like to swing. Good to hear FCD is doing good. Hopefully the shots will take care of things and he won’t have to do the surgery. Tell him prayers and good thoughts are headed his way from south Jawja.
Bobbio how’s VunderWife doing? Please let her know prayers and good thoughts for healing and being back to her lovely self real soon are headed her way from south Jawja also. Don’t get too use to having the bed to yourself. 
Today she’s doing OK, but is grumpy from missing her pain meds, allowing her orthopedic pain to rear up; that is giving here more of a problem than the abdomen. Plus, she’s showing signs of a lupus flare. Fun fun fun, and not unexpected.
Best of all, I’m at home, so I don’t have to hear all about it. 
Glad the injection thing went well, FCM. Keep us updated on VunderWife, Bobbio. Hope the walking gets easier for her. And Winnie makes a good point about ice cream. Not for snorting.
Oh and Rue, I notice we haven’t seen any pictures of Brody lately. Perhaps you could take a few sometime post-ectomy. (And no, we don’t need a detailed picture of the ectomy site, thankyewverymuch.)
And it continues. Thank you for your touching apology. For some reason I am still unable to tear myself away from the game. Perhaps there’s a program or some type of therapy that would help? My self-analysis shows that I apparently enjoy pseudo-athletic competition even though I’m not athletically gifted. And yet, I’m not all that fond of computer games.
Lissla, I’m scared of the tonsil-stone thread. I still have my tonsils and I just don’t want to know.
For your beef, you could also try carne deshebrada. It’s Mexican shredded beef. You can serve it with rice, in corn tortillas, with potatoes, as a sandwich. The link describes the basic version. Some people add dry red chile (chili powder, even), you can also add sliced stuffed olives, capers, and thin sliced almonds. I usually add just a touch of cinnamon and have also added red wine to the sauce. It’s basically a different type of barbecue beef…
I’m sure there was more…

Hey Swampy, I found the perfect pool toy for your pool.
Best wishes for FairyChatDad and VynderVife.
I’m gonna be a hurricane next year too. We’ll see how cool that turns out to be when the time comes. I’m glad all we gots to worry about out here is the occasional earthquake.
And tsunami.
And the odd tornado (oh yes, we do sometimes have tornadoes here, but they’re small. Tornatillos really.)
Wifey had a meeting this evening, so I dumped some sweet chili sauce in a bag of boneless, skinless chickie breastes and left them to marinate for a few hurs and when Wifey got home she grilled 'em. and when I got home, i had a chicken sammich and some steamed veggies. Now that Wifey is finally home we’re having our second dinner of taquitoes.
Goo’ nite!
Deal! 
What I forgot:
Thank you for not turning me in for the laundered money, MagicEyes. I suppose it was imprudent of me to post about it here…hmmmm… It’s dry now and in my purse where it belongs.
I am on the North Pacific hurricane list for this year, but I can’t remember hearing about me. I’m early in the list, so you’d think I would have been here by now… I’m guessing I was just a mild-mannered tropical storm.

Speaking of cinnamon buns … we were speaking of cinnamon buns, right? We ate at a rather cheapie pizza place last night. I don’t know if it’s a chain or not, but if it IS a chain, and you have one in your town …
RUN THERE RIGHT NOW. Run, run like the wind to CiCi’s Pizza and gobble down their cinnamon buns on the pizza buffet.
Go. Go now. You won’t be sorry. Talk about your nummy goodness. I’m still partially in a sugar coma.
Fingers and toes crossed for fcdad! I’ve had spinal needles and they’re not too bad if the outcome is something good like say babies or relief from pain.
Tomorrow I will be taking the Princess[sup]TM[/sup] to have her wisdom teeth removed…all four. I hope that doesn’t mean she will need to drop out of college.
Speaking of the Princess, I think she might have them tonsil stones. She’s always complaining about food getting stuck in hers. Should I tell her about them?
Oh, and it looks like Ophelia is going to hang around offen our coast for a while. Nobody seems to know where she wants to go…including her.

Still have that damned chandelier though, don’tcha?
Still sending very best wishes for FCD and Vunderwife.
I had all four of my wisdom teeth removed when I was eighteen. Problem was, they couldn’t just pull 'em out, nope, no way. They had to break them out in pieces. Worse, the novacaine wasn’t working too well. Once I got home, I puked and ripped the stitches where my wisdom teeth used to be. It was not a fun experience. I turned black, blue, green and purple and was all swollen up. On the other hand, I’ve known people who had their wisdom teeth removed, and you couldn’t even tell they’d been through it.
Hmmm, that’s all I’ve got for now. I still haven’t had my quad shot Americano and I’m a little sleepy.
Speaking of wisdom teeth I have to go back to the dentist in October and ther are gonna tell me if I need to have mine out. I hate the dentist 
Have I told the MMP how much I love my new job recently? I do love it (where is that sarcasm smiley) - the extra stress, responsibility, headache, hassle and general PITA of it all for the $65 a month they offered me last week (they take away a ‘field’ allowence of $225 and say I got pay raise!)
I told personnel where to stick their $65
I am currently an evil bitch from hell from doing two jobs until the replacement for my old job gets here. I also made a field engineer cry by giving him his transfer letter a couple days ago. Ooops!
On the plus side all the big bad oilfield boys think I have a ragin case of PMS so they are all now treading on eggshells and generally trying not to piss me off. Aint working!
Sorry I am grumpy today.
On the plus I have a date tonight!
Oh and I hope the spinal needle thingies help FCD and I hope Bobbios wifey type person feels better soon also!
I’ve been thinking about this, and I suppose if you had some freeze-dried (astronaut) ice cream, you could grind it into a fine powder and snort it. Not at all sure why you would want to do such a thing, but hey, whatever flips your skirt. Personally, I like my ice cream hydrated, frozen and in a bowl.
I am completely oogied out by the tonsil stone thing. I do not have tonsils; they were removed when I was about 4 or 5, so I was blissfully unaware. I really should know better than to read the TMI threads, although the fart one was funny.
Healing thoughts for FCD and VonderWife. I hope they are both feeling better soon.
Reminds me of a cartoon I saw once … a happy doggie loaded into the car, wagging tail and all. His doggie friends are outside watching him go, pitying looks on their faces, while he tells them happily, “they’re taking me to be tutored!!”
Yeah, that’s one of The Far Side comics. I love that one.
Okay, nibbling on some s-n-s pork at the desk all afternoon. Ya ready?
There is no way of judging the future
but by the past.

Not sure if it’s snerk worthy, though.
On the plus side, though, the wallpaper we ordered came in yesterday (only one day to ship ground) so we went out an got paint to match it. You would think buying paint to match wallpaper is easy, but it isn’t. So I guess I’ll be painting some time this weekend. And I may even get to see the house tonight after work.
