Work was rather busy(1st of the month, everybody needed their rent money orders, and cigars to make blunts) I’m off the next two day. And there’s (probably bad) hockey the next two days. 😃

The check cashing place is 6 doors down, and the Liquor Sto is 3 doors down from the store in Da Hood.

In other words, unless I get up early, don’t expect any Saturday posts from me to make much sense. Like any of my posts make much sense. But after visiting possibly as many as 31 bars -----------

I envy you. And it was Divine Intervention. Like Jesus said, [“Blessed are the Cheesemakers”](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-xLUEMj6cwA). 😃

Fancy ,the Overtly Gay Reindeer, or perhaps Santasuarus Rex.

**gotti** , that sucks. ☹

No, dammit, I’m Jewish.  
Is it ten? Is this a trick question?  
Doc, Grumpy, Happy, Sleepy, Bashful, Sneezy, Dopey, Rudolph, Huckepack, Naseweis, Packe, Pick, Puck, Purzelbaum, Rumpelbold.

dammit.

The Pie Hole Report:

Breakfast pork chops, boiled potatoes with onion and garlic, sliced tomatoes for dinner.

Mrs. Plant (v.3.0) will have one and one half hours of sleep before I awaken her to go to the Krogerian Dark Satanic Mill.

Being lazy & out of shape prevents you from cookie tossing? 😕  
Speaking of which, I heard on the radio that today is National Cookie Day, the female DJ said, “I’m fat, for me _every_ day is National Cookie Day!” 😛

He ran the coffee shop and trained developmentally disabled people in that building. He was also a Rennie and a member of my guild.

That article has a link to an LATimes article, which ran a pic of his boyfriend breaking down when he found out. What an absolutely assaholic picture to run. Someone has just found out that their BF of three years has been murdered & you not only have a photog take that, but the editor agrees to use that. I’m a photographer & while it’s a great ‘action’ shot, it’s someone grieving; that really should be off limits. **Tugig** , your thoughts?

That question actually came up a few years ago when the reindeer not mentioned in the stories attended Santarchy. We decided that Goner the Suicidal Reindeer and Vomit the Bulimic Reindeer were not really good bets so we went with Fancy the Outwardly Gay Reindeer for the job. 🙂

We lost power overnight. I woke to pee and noticed it was not just dark, but _ **DARK!!** _ No night light in the bathroom, no glow of the digital clock on the dresser, no points of light from the electric blanket controls, no glare on the wall from the ever-present spotlight that the neighbors in back have pointed at our bedroom window… Fortunately, it was a clear night with more than half a moon, so there was a patch of light on the floor.

The power did come back on a few minutes later, and shortly after that, Higgs started fussing, so I was up at 4. Dammit. And my computer won’t turn on, dammit. I hate using this laptop, mostly because of the keyboard. But it works, so there’s that. I’ll mess around with the PC later. And by my reckoning, power was out for just under 2 hours.

It’s below freezing at the moment. If it warms to a reasonable temp, I’ll try to gather leaves today. We’ll see how that goes. And I have one load of clothes to wash, and I need to clean the kitchen after baking yesterday. No, I didn’t do the dishes. Don’t judge! 😛

Happy Saturday!

Good Mornin’ Y’all! Up and caffeinatin’. _YAWN_ 'Tis 46 Amurrkin with clear skies with a predicted high of 62 and sunny. AKA, a normal day for this time of year.

We shall become stuffed bears around 8:30 this mornin’. MMMMMMM… pancakes, snausage and, best of all, BACON all in unlimited quantities! After that we shall waddle on over to the likker sto’ to buy some wine for tonight when folks come over to partake of jambalaya. Oh, I guess I should mention the cookage of said jambalaya shall also ensue. It shall be OYKW’s chore to procure the shrimpies to go in the jambalaya. I’m makin’ a large batch cause some of said jambalaya shall make its way to the church house Sunday for first Sunday brunch.

**{{{gotti}}}** it’s especially tough when something like that hits close to home.

OK, that’s all I got. I need more caffeine and should purtify so as to be presentable to my adorin’ public.

Happy Sattidy Y’all!

Up and caffeinating. I’m getting ready to hook up my new (to me) 'puter. I’m trying to figure out where I’ll put a second monitor though. Space is limited in the studio but a second monitor would be nice for some of the design software. First world problems! 🙂

It’s a sunny 35 degrees outside, I’m glad I’m inside.

Nothing special for today, just hanging around the house, some irk and some cleaning.

I’m sorry {{{ **Gotti** }}}
