Lesseeā€¦first things first: **Rebo** is supposed to be our hostess with the mostest tomorrow. We donā€™t have volunteers yet for the 24th or the 31st or January 7th. **Haze** had mentioned that she would start us out sometime soon, so maybe sheā€™d like to pick one of these. Iā€™ll be on vacation from the 28th till the 6th. Assuming no plane delays, I could do Monday the 7th. Maybe Iā€™ll have something interesting to tell from my travels. Hmmmm, **rigsy** , whomever would you like to put out on the curb? You suppose heā€™d fit in the trash can? Maybe you can convince him itā€™s an extended game of hide-and-seek. Glad you and Mr. Lissar made it back safely, **LiLi**. Our weather was kind of bad last night, but it had cleared up quite nicely by this morning. Thereā€™s been a little bit of snow, but nothing serious, thank goodness. We were supposed to have a winter storm warning till 2:00 or something, but by this morning they had canceled it. You should still take a day or two for yourself, **Taters**. Itā€™s very therapeutic. I have a wonderful recipe for chicken soup with rice in it. Itā€™s completely my favorite soup (well, one of them). It came from someone in my Momā€™s garden club a long time ago. I want to get started with Christmas cards. My cousin who writes long Christmas letters already got his out. Guess I should write something more than posts on the internet tonight. Everyone have a lovely evening. I might be back later; if not, see you in the next MMP. GT ---

You can put me down for the 31st unless someone else wants it. Iā€™ll be home anyway that day, so what the heck. Would you mind sharing your chicken-rice soup recipe?? ---

home and drinking Guinness. Itā€™s windy and cold, but the rain has stopped. I hope i am off Tuesday. **BooFae** , I just bought the Newcastle once because itā€™s on sale. Usually I drink Guinness or Yuengling. CutiePie, I leave my decorations up year round, so TVMan and I balance out. **Rigs** , itā€™s only a crime if they find the body. Youā€™d look cute in an orange jumpsuit, though. šŸ˜ƒ ---

MMmmmm, a Guinness ::scavenging through the beer fridge in the garage :: Just one left. I donā€™t want to have one then downgrade, so Iā€™ll finish the last few Harpā€™s here. gā€™night! ---

[QUOTE=FairyChatMom] **swampy** , the contents of your haid have frightened me for a long time. šŸ˜› [/QUOTE] Actually, I think weā€™re mostly relieved that there ARE contents in his headā€¦ ooh, snap! šŸ˜› **DoggieJeeves** ā€“you know that old saying, right? A friend will give you an alibiā€“a REAL friend will help you hide the body. My nose has turned into some kind of weird slime producing organism. NOT like my cold, but as if all the old mucus, stored for years, nay, decades within my sinuses now has to come out. I cannot hear; my ears are popping; I blow and blow and not much comes out. The post-nasal drip is gagging me. Donā€™t you like it when nurses SHARE? HP3 done. I only have one more movie, so Amazon better deliver #5 soon. Also, Iā€™m getting ticked at Amazon or some resell aspect of it. I ordered this really cool book on libraries (never mind, work with me here) and they said theyā€™d ship it 12/6. Ha! Nothing. I emailed them Mondayā€“no reply. :mad: ---

Morning, all! Itā€™s Monday, but no new MMP in sight, so Iā€™m still hereā€¦ \*\*Rigs \*\*-- itā€™s only homicide if the victim has lived up to the minimum requirements of behavinā€™ like a human beinā€™. Jusā€™ sayinā€™. ::Waits to see how Rigs looks in an Orange suit:: (there **will** be pictures from Death Row, right? :p) \*\*Rosie \*\*-- Iā€™ll only be gone for a week, but it seems like _some people_ may not be able to manage even that much withdrawalā€¦ šŸ˜ƒ (Why yes, I think comparing myself to a drug is probably apt. At least in terms of the damageā€¦) Hi **Cutie**! ---
