Dogbutt and whatever the other annoying guy is called will be disappointed to know that I survived the ordeal. The needle is beginning to wear off, and I can join Butters in his noble pursuit since I can feel my lips. So far, the needles were the only thing that hurt. :dubious: ---

**BooFae** Years ago I dated a guy who wanted to go to Mardi Gras without me. He had lived in N.O. for a number of years, had tons of beads and the stories to go with them. He made it sound like so much fun and everything was cool until (to his regret) he told me the stories about swapping SOs for the week - with total strangers. I’m really not the jealous type, unless you give me a reason, but I told him if he went to Mardi Gras without me not to bothering calling me when he got back because I wouldn’t be around. Sometimes you got to put your foot down. {{{ **Metal Mouse** }}} and {{{ **BigKitty** }}} Just had a big thunder-boomer go through. Lots of pouring rain to go with it. It’s cooling off nicely outside. Had a piece of filet mignon for dinner, with stewed tomatoes and rice. Now my belly is happy. ---

Thanks for all the hugs and thoughts. This finally got me to join Facebook (there is a group of us that used to post on the JREF forum and got to know each other well; I’ve been avoiding Facebook for years but that is where I can stay informed…but I wish to hell I never knew what it would take to get me to sign up… Apparently it’s just when he decides to go now. Family is being notified. Sorry for the downer, but again, thanks for the good thoughts. It did help. ---

The world works in weird ways. A few days ago, I was thinking about a long ago former coworker. Two days after that, he pops up on DH’s Facebook. Turns out they went to high school together. ---

Gordie got multiple walks. I had a Booster Club meeting with the team contact. I think it went well. I stopped for a beer at the Bistro. Italian chicken with 3 cheese rice and salad for dinner. > [@Qadgop\_the\_Mercotan](#): > > Getting back to the OP, we all did the time warp at my daughter’s wedding reception this January past, led by Bride and Groom, me and the Mrs, elder daughter and son-in-law, and the rest of the wedding party.

> [@carnivorousplant](#): > > Would you elaborate on that? > Or, for Rosie, “What does it mean, “lil Rat”?” My sister moved out of my folks’ place a few weeks ago and left her pet rat behind… We took her in, because we had babysat for her before, and I got kind of attached to her ( **PB** , not so enthused _L_) Anyway, In the evening I usually get her out of her cage & hold & play with her for awhile. She’s really a sweet little critter. ---

I had a pet rat as a kid. He was a funny little guy. One of his favorite things was getting to run around in his clear plastic ball while his cage was being cleaned. He’d run right up to the cats, and I’m sure I saw a little ratty smirk on his face while the cats were going nuts trying to reach him. “You can’t get me!” Brave rat, teasing cats like that. 🙂 I wish I could remember what some part of my brain is so anxiously insisting I’ve forgotten. ---

You’ll be pleased to hear that 'im indoors has seen the error of his ways and will now not be meeting the Throatpuncher General down a dark alleyway. Last day at irk before hollibobs, and I have a particularly irksome thing to do. Better get on and do it, I suppose…after a cup of tea, of course. How’s the head, **Butters**?
