Um, hi.
Good morning, all - and a special hello to Beebs - how you doing? 
Up and caffeinating–yes I know it’s early, but I’m going to get an early start this morning, and make a bit of credit time at work. Which will be helpful since I’m taking off on Friday. When, naturally, it will probably be raining. Boo!
Wow, how strange that MahnaX2 and LiLi did know each other!
I think those kitties are very cute, BBBBobbio and can’t understand why you don’t like em.
Although I could practically hear them mewling, especially in that one photo.
Happy Hump Day all. LOL Wednesday, I mean, of course!
Hi beebs! Glad to see you back again. 
Hi beebs! Nice to see you stop by.
I’m up and just remembered to give over here; it’s the last day, by the way.
Good news on the thyroid, Taters. Hope they can find something that will help with the edema.
Off to get ready for another day. Tomorrow is my Firday… It CANNOT come too soon.
GT
Good Mornin’ Y’all! Up and caffienated and all dressed here. Ol’ y’all know who (who spent the night) is finishin’ up gettin’ ready then we’re goin’ to Waffle House for brekkies. MMMMMMMMM… maybe I’ll have pork chops and aigs.
Glad ya like the chicken 'n dumplin’s recipe Spaz. Easy and good. My kind of recipe. 
So LiLi and Muppet have a past together. Do tell!
BBBobbio I think your choice of workin’ names sounds fine.
MBG hope the knee feels better soon.
Taters yay on the no surgery!
Ok, I hear ol’ y’all know who sayin’ he’s all ready, so off to WH.
Later Y’all!
Taters, good news on those results.
Nice to see you back, beebs.
MBG, hope all is well with the knee. That kind of customer service is totally worth every extra penny.
swampy, it’s ain’t THAT kind of past.
Actually, it’s relatively boring… from what I recall, the wildest parties of our youth involved Pictionary.
Ariel is making love to my shoes by rolling around on them and rubbing her face against them (well, they’re Chinese slippers, really… but you get the point). She’s a strange 'un. Maybe I should buy her a pair just to snuggle with? 
Afternoon all.
I am at work, but having a rather quiet day. The former Amir (or some such) of Kuwait died last night so all of Bahrain’s government ministries, etc. are closed until Sunday. Private sector is not however shut down. Hubby, being a government employee is “lazing” around the house, doing such exciting things as washing clothes and cleaning bathrooms, while I sit here surfing the intarwebs. Unfortunately, the current advice that I’m working on needs input from a government entity that is closed until Sunday so I am stymied in terms of productive work, but we are open for business ([insert wry/sarcastic smilie here]) so here I quietly sit waiting for Quit O’Clock!!!
LiLi and Muppet - weird that you know each other from days past!
kai, such cute, teeny-tiny puppies!!!
VBob, cute little kitties like that aren’t big enough to be included in any kind of tail-count!
BusDude, ouch on the knee! I hope it’s all okay!
Taters, I am relieved for you that you won’t need surgery. I just hope they can find a solution to the whole edema thing!
Muppet, I assume Ariel is a cat or dog? Anyway, my daughter loves shoes, just not on her feet! She screams blue murder if you try to put her shoes on for her, but if you lose sight of her and she’s being really, really quiet, chances are she’s sitting in the foyer, chewing on one of my shoes! :dubious: (Admittedly, her molars are coming in now)
Well, yeah, Dottie. I think I mentioned that earlier, about the entire litter of kittens not having enough collective tail length to count.
Sad news. FDiL is now ex-FDiL. With the funeral and everything else going on, she’s been in a slow meltdown, and VunderKind parted with her albeit on friendly terms. I told him to let her have some space and some time; if they’re meant to be an item, they’ll get back together.
In the meantime, he agreed with me that when he comes down in June, we need to hit Virginia Beach for a cleavage inspection… 
Time to forage.
:: drives by, waving ::
And a lot of Coke. The soda, not the drug. Sorry, no wild stories. That reminds me- Driving Husband has a firm (heh) belief that as soon as two girls are alone in a room together, they have bra-and-panty tickle fights.
Which didn’t happen. Sorry, doggi, Bob, et al.
The lasagne-that-isn’t was delicious. Can’t post a recipe because I have no idea, but it’s just making the two sauces, mixing them in a panful of pasta, and then baking it. Yum.
I think Dad’s coming over today to visit the baby. If I’m very lucky, he’ll also wash dishes.
My FiL wants us to go visit them in June. I think maybe (sigh) we should go visit to MiL instead. In Napanee, Town of Excitement. Which means seeing my SiL, she who gives hard candy to her baby, and permits him to eat fries. We haven’t been to Napanee since August, and we’ve been to Niagara-on-the-Lake twice or three times. I’m, sorry, it’s just a lot more fun doing wine tours than visiting the Wal-Mart.
Yes, lots and lots of Coke. Entire cases of the stuff.
And some Monty Python… and occasionally Flanders and Swann.
LiLi, Napanee is fun and exciting. At the very least, you can retrace the footsteps of Avril Lavigne. Oooh. (yeah, I got nuffin’).
Dotty, Ariel is of the feline persuasion. I’m convinced she was a goth teenager in a previous life. Her pasttimes include pouting, giving people dirty looks, looking beautiful, napping for most of the day, and stalking off in high dudgeon if you attempt to pet her. However, when no one is looking, she’ll occasionally do something supremely silly (like cuddle with my shoes, or roll around with her catnip mouse). She’s extremely offended if we catch her at it, though.
Another quiet day at work. Fun.
I’m vertical and caffienating. I have to go get cleaned up and stop by one of the local auto dealers that was making noises about hiring me. Then I have to swing by one of the local independents where I promised to set up some new electronics for him. After that there are a couple of additional stops and then done with the errands.
Don’t I leave an exciting life?
MBG Hope the knee gets better, but if they have to cut, find a guy that does lots of knees, not some guy that did one back when he was an intern.
Hi.
I’m alive – sort of. I have no idea what anybody has been saying or doing, though.
I hope I’ll be a bit less busy and stressed next week – but I’m not sure about that yet.
[/driveby]
busy busy day so my usually skimming will have to wait - in the mean time

Alright, I said I wouldn’t comment on this the other day because it was too early. But I just have to say something…
When fixing lunch for your ob/gyn with which you have an appointment 2 hours later, is it appropriate to make tacos? :eek:
::d&r::
…as long as they’re not pink, you should be fine.

Cuuuuuuute! Both the puppies and the kitties. Although I’m partial to the kitties myself. I really wish we could get a pair of kittens, but Miss Lily doesn’t like other cats around.
Sorry about the knee and the missed mini-Dopefest, MBG.
Glad to hear the test came back ok, Taters. Re the weight loss, you’ve probably just reached a plateau. Your body’s going “WTF??” and is fighting back against losing more weight. Don’t get discouraged! And don’t try to restrict your calories TOO much… you’ll only convince your body that it’s starving and it’ll hold on to whatever it can. Make sure you’re eating lots of veggies and enough protein, which will help you to feel full while you try to take off the weight. I like having high-protein, high-fiber snacks at work so when I get hungry, I’m less tempted to eat the candy that’s lurking *everywhere *all the time all day long. You can do it! Just don’t burn yourself out while trying to do it. Remember that slow weight loss is better - you’re more likely to keep it off.
Very cool that **LiLi **and **Muppet **know each other!
I did go home on time last night, gt. We tend to only have one deadline like that a week or even every two weeks. And then the in between days tend to be rather quiet… there’s a bunch that I *should *be working on, but without the deadlines, it’s a lot harder to stay motivated!
Morning. I’m off. My DM called me up and savaged me about not using enough hours. Hello, SFB, you gave me hours for decreasing sales, and I increased them! Gah! :chest pains:
Hi beebs!
Hi Lunch!
Hope the knee gets better, MBG
LiLi, can I at lest pretend there were bra and panty tickle fights?
I’m getting the “undo circumcision damage” ads again. Maybe because of rosie’s arrow? 
Pie, yes.
What? Whaddya mean there were no bra and tickle fights?
Well, it’s never too late to start.
Glad the tests came back with good news, Taters!
Squee for kitties!
Fish tacos! Is what you should prepare.
