:dubious: Not gonna 'splain why?
ETA: How far do you have to move?
Will there be an essay in September about what we actually did?
Anyway, I’ll likely make a couple of trips up north to see the folks, a trip next month down the blues highway and a few rides through the hills of east Tennessee.
taters, I feel you on the truck. I’m beginning to shop for a replacement for the little red beast after 11 years and ~250K miles.
lieu, that lady was very fortunate that she was found. Ma Nature ain’t no softy.
swampy, BBQ pizza is the nom, but PH is the 
G’night all.
I drove through the mountains of Tennessee traveling with Mrs. Plant (v.2.0) from Arkansas to New England.
They are beautiful.
Swampy, I don’t know whether to gag or sniffle or give Allie some extra snuggles.
My own plans for the summer probably include job hunting for DH and/or myself. This will unfortunately involve venturing forth into our disgustingly hot summer weather.
That story about the garbage disposal guy makes most of my co-workers look a lot better.
Poor Kitty.
One down and 5 to go as I am irking a half day on Sat. Hubby is leaving on Wed for 10 days to attend graduation of grandson. He will actually get his first college degree before his high school diploma. Smart boy. Plans to be an orthopedic surgeon.
I will miss hubby but I am looking forward to some alone time. Lucky Louie will accompany me to irk with my boss blessing.
Dieting in hopes of losing some weight and eating healthier.
Tired.
Worked, came home. Missed hockey. 
I like Pep Boys, they take care of Rory.
FCM, I kept the last 3 vehicles going until #1 had a cracked block, Deathmobile#1 had a bent frame, and Deathmobile #2 had a transmission leak, oil leak, coolant leak, AND needed a new exhaust.
You sick, sad man!:eek: I wanna shake your hand and buy you a beer.

Up too early.
I hope to get a little more sleep before I go house hunting today.
I finally contacted an online doctor about the issue I’m having and he made me feel better. Of course he can’t really give me a diagnosis over the internet but he’s pretty sure he knows what the problem is and it’s a simple fix.
Then I saw the bill from a collection agency for a bill I disputed years ago, that I do not owe and I have NO intention of paying. That pissed me off to no end, how many times do I have to dispute the damn thing? Like I need this now. Every few years I go through this and it would probably be easier to have paid the damn thing years ago instead of fighting it every few years. Except I don’t owe it and the bank who says I do can kiss my so white it glows in the dark ass. As far as I’m concerned they owe me money and an apology for their screw up.
So I am up too early. I’m going to feel it later.
Good morning! I had another good night of sleeping and I woke before I heard Higgs, so that’s a win, even tho it was still barely after 5. Today’s supposed to be another stoopit, hot day. No idea what I’ll do - maybe some time in my nice, cool studio? I’ve opened some windows for now, but I expect they’ll be closed in short order, alas.
**swampy **- you are once sick dude - mayhaps that’s why I lurves ya?? 
Our water heated is pretty much the last un-replaced major item that came with the house, and I have it in the back of my mind that its demise is looming over us. But so far, so good, so there’s that.
**sari **- we had a lot of crap with AT&T over internet service that we never used because they were never able to install the phone line (yep, this was about dial-up.) Since there was never a phone line, we didn’t have a phone number associated with the internet so there was no way to reference it and prove we never had the service. Not that it matters when it gets turned over to a collection agency… That went on for years, but I’m pretty sure they’ve given up on us.
**Red **- you can do an essay if you want, but I’ll still be on my cruise in Sept, so I won’t be assigning it myself. Unless I can access the Dope from the ship. hmmmmmmm
So begins another day. Happy Tuesday!!!
Ah, sorry for the confusion. I do not have a job yet. I just meant I was hoping to get one so that I would have summer plans that included moving. Believe me, when I get a job you’ll all know.
Today it’s back to work for me.
Good luck house hunting, sari. I know what you mean about old medical bills, they suck.
Good Mornin’ Y’all! Up, caffienated, and brekkied so no YAWNS today. ‘Tis 68 Amurrkin out with a predicted high of 90 for the day. Matters not to me as I am still cavebound. I made brekkie for us before OYKW left to go to his irkplace. He left at six-thirty poor thing. He knows there’s a pile of stuff to deal with plus he’s checkin’ into water heater replacement. He’ll go by his place at some point to gather up laundry and get some clothes as he’s gonna stay at da cave until the water heater situation is resolved.
Red yes, there will be an essay. Five hunnert word minimum, typed, and double spaced. So, make notes.
Nurse! here’s hopin’ hubby is all better soonest. Yay for him not bein’ in so much pain.
Nomad is this pleasure, irk, or a combo? Sounds like quite an itinerary!
Sari sorry about the bill thing. It’s aggravatin’ when those things just go on for years.
Butters yay for some alone time and good luck with the diet. You can do it!

I know “Engine Kitty” was bad, but any variation of “Soft Kitty” amuses me.
Ok, I reckon I should get myself cleanded up and deal with irkstuff. ICK! Plus, Ima make up a beastloaf for dindin tonight. I got me a gnawin’ and a cravin’ for beastloaf, steamed cabbage, mac 'n cheese, and cornbread. YUM!
Happy Tuesday Y’all!
Blurf. Walked to irk this morning, despite the forecast for rain.
**BBBobbio **- why would you worry about rain? It’s not like you’ll melt or anything… 
Household is still asleep. Windows are still open for the cool. I’ve had some breakfast and I really need a shower, but I’m not going to disturb my sweetie. Because I’m nice, dammit!
The rain doesn’t bother me. It’s the BZOT!!! out of the sky that makes my hair stand on end.
Pun intended.
Oh, yeah. That. :eek:
Morning all,
Its sad when you actually look forward to going to irk because its cooler there. First truely hot night since the airconditioning left us. Of course the maine coon wanted to snuggle all night. GAH! Should hear from the airconditioning guy today about getting paper irk to loan us the mulah to pay for the new unit. Supposed to cool-ish down by Thursday, but until then, major blurf!
Up, caffeinated, off to work.
Time to play in clay. Woohoo!!
blurf
Bah. Stoopid English weather- I need to cut the grass (assuming the strimmer is behaving itself), and every time I go to leave the house, the sunshine vanishes, and it starts raining. As soon as I start doing something else, the sun comes back out. Terribly frustrating.
In better news, I has interview tomorrow, for a job that will not involve clearing muddy beer tents at 1am. Please cross all available appendages, I wants this one!
Appendages crossed.
I’ve got two more civil service exams today. One is for retirement technician, the other is for records specialist. Five more next week, then the waiting begins.
