The Trick or Treat MMP

Before the next one make sure to eat some beans, & cabbage too; that way you can fart & BRP at the same time. :smiley:

I bought both of the gowns on clearance at Dillard’s years and years ago. They have served as dress for the opera, symphony, formal events and Halloween for many years. Well worth the $7 each I paid.

Wow!

Evening all. Boys lost 2-3 but played well. We have our last game on Saturday morning.

Get feeling better, Shady

George, so it was a good day when you let someone in and celebrated letting someone out…

Butters, those monthly meetings will let you work on ‘sleeping with your eyes open’ skills. They’ll tire of them after a couple of months and find new ways to torment you…

Red, sounds like your place of employment is well-fed. And try being around a farting English mastiff…:eek::eek::eek:

Nut, yeah, getting stuck on the roadside is a sure way to watch the money run…glad you got it fixed in town.

Sunny, hope the costume meets with son’s approval.

So swampy, you’ve got a local place to crack your nuts, eh??

There’s no free air in Ali-bama, Juliet, it’s $1.00 to $1.50 about anywhere.

Haven’t eaten since noonish, so will get a little sustenance and head off to bed soon.

Well if I would ever take up bathing … :wink:

Covering my bets. I do have some Amazon stock against my old age but there is another I’ve had waaaaay longer …
People’s Natural Gas!

Bubbles don’t grow on trees, Bub! :smiley: And on the serious side I tried mine with an assortment of commercial and homemade bubble solutions and did find the stuff designed for those specific foggers to work far and away the best. For fog solution any of the standard ones work about the same. I’m actually using one of the more commercial-grade carpet fogs because I like the slight “bakery” smell to it.

You could blame the stuffed dog orrrrrrrrr ------ blame Ralph the Invisible Dog. If you talk to and pet Ralph visitors will figure any smells are the least of their concerns. :smiley:

Your great-grandfather may have known one of my great-uncles. He was a world-renowned pecan expert; enough so that he taught courses at Texas A&M despite not being a college graduate himself.
On other news have packed for the big Halloween novelty shotgun shoot tomorrow. Nothing says “We’re ready in case the zombie apocalypse breaks out on Halloween” more than 60-100 men armed with 12-bores.

Worked, went to hockey, Canes lost. There’s a bad wreck in front of the apartment complex.:frowning:

Actually, there was a guy wearing that one tonight(he had at least 100 of them)

{{{{Juliet}}}}}

Up, out, late already, gonna be a looong day.

Bonfire night? Yeah, we do. All that involves is watching things go bang though, plus burning a big bonfire (if you’re lucky, lots of places have dropped the fire part so it’s just fireworks in the middle distance).

No reason why we can’t do both, even if they are the same week.

I think there used to be more to Bonfire night, but it’s losing out to furrin import traditions squints across the Atlantic

I just *love *getting stuck behind someone who drives *under *the speed limit… :rolleyes: Fortunately, it was just for about 4 or 5 miles - then he (she?) turned and I was able to proceed as usual.

One tiny little thing to do this morning, then I’m out of work again. If Josh shows up, I’ll have some stuff to finish for him, but I need him to clarify a few things before I can wrap the drawings up. We shall see.

Poor RoxStar was a crab last night. She got her 3 third-round baby vaxxes, plus a flu shot, and I expect that put a cramp in her style. On the plus side, she crashed early, tho I heard her crying as I was getting ready to leave. Poor babby…

**FCD **will get home today. He’s a tad miffed because this software training has mostly been lecture. How idiotic is that??? You learn by doing and screwing up and asking questions, right? But things have settled down with work, so he should have time to play with it at home, and the company is good about answering questions over the phone or the intrarwebz.

Thus beginneth my day.
Happy Halloween!!!

Good Mornin’ Y’all! Up and caffeinatin’. YAWN ‘Tis 50 Amurrkin out and clear (dark, actually) with a predicted high and N.O.S. for the day. Rain is supposed to happen tomorrow and Firday. We shall see. Insurance adjustor person is due to be here around ten this mornin’ to assess damage from Michael. Then we go from there, I reckon. No trip to the Pubic sto’ today bein’ as I have no need to lay in provisions. Tonight we sup upon baked ham (gonna bake a small spiral cut one), green beans, sweet N.O.T. and rolls. Outside of insurance person, I plan pretty much on sloth for the day.

flytrap I have a similar pee-kahn cracker, but still prefer to get 'em cracked elsewhere. Hmmm… I could take the pee-kahns to get cracked this afternoon. We shall see if I motivate to do so.

Now I need more caffeine and to feed rumbly tummy. Then I suppose I should make myself presentable. Bother!

Happy Hump Day Y’all!

ETA: In honor of the day…

BOO!!!

Happy Hump Day!

Happy Halloween!

I woke too early, damn bladder.
Now is time to get up.

Supposed to be a pretty day today, high near 70. I hope to get some yard irk done since I will be able to walk around the yard without somebody trying to take my shoes while I’m doing it.
I hope the daycare works out and wears his little ass out.
It would also be nice to get some irk done in the junk room without help. Ripple thinks the junk room is his giant treasure chest.

Truth is, I’m likely to come home and crash.

Red, that outfit sounds lovely. I’m just wearing all black today, with a large black flower in my hair. It’s a little more than typical, but not like a costume.

Juliet Jr. puked this morning. I’m sure she has what Romeo Jr. had over the weekend. I feel so bad for her. As she was puking, she kept crying that she’s going to miss Halloween. I’m torn. The strict parent in me wants to say, “No school, no fun.” The softie in my wants to say, “You can put on your pretty costume and go to a couple houses, but no eating the candy.” I don’t want to set the precedent that she can miss school and still have fun; but she’s really upset about it and she truly is not feeling well.

Similarly, I have a blouse that has served as both formal wear, and part of Halloween costumes.

**Juliet **- you know what you need to do. Go softie! Just don’t let her share her germs with any other kids… or adults, for that matter.

I’ve had a little work from Josh that I’m stretching out way longer than I should. No one else has come thru, so I’ll need to nag some more this afternoon. I’m thinking working part time will work out fine.

Up, caffeinated, and sheveled. Closing shift tonight. Alex Catt is tormenting Gordie ,by lying behind him, and lightly touching his back with her paw.
For Halloween, I’m dressing up as a functioning member of society.:smiley:

Juliet, since she’s really sick, be a softie, but no eating the loot till the stomach is better.

Blurfage! Back at irk, of course. I was gonna try to sneak out early today and still may. Tomorrow being the first of the month it is my only chance this week. The little kids from the Child Development Center across the street will come Trick or Treating here this afternoon. They supplied us with a ton of candy to hand out. I have already picked through it and got out stuff I like. I know, I know. I am terrible.

Happy Hump day and Happy Halloween.

Hark, hark the dogs do bark,
The monsters are coming to town.
Some in rags and some in bags,
And some in velvet gowns.

**Butters **- I know you saw a couple of the pics of Roxy in yarn wigs. My daughter will be helping me with them over the course of the year, or so she says. :smiley: We should be able to send you a bunch for next Halloween!

Tim came thru with a long list of drawings to be done. Yay for work!!!

Oh God, they’ve got the drill out next door. The banging is bad enough, but the drill is worse. All that vibration. I’m quite sick as well as exhausted, but if I lie down, my bed vibrates so much that it drives me nuts.

Maybe I should get back at them. I should go next door and fart a lot.
