not ghosts, greeblings. Cats always see things people can’t - they’re called greeblings.
This is very true.
You know you’re a geek when: you use a dice-rolling app on your smartphone to decide among meal choices.
Please note that I do not consider “geek” a negative.
Small world. I have sarcoidosis, too. Glad you’re OK.
Irked, hockey sucked(but I got to see Hockey Monkey ride the Olympia tonight.
apes, don’t poke the baby!
Happy Hump Day!
It’s 10 degrees above freezing and pitch black outside.
Dog woke me but I was having some weird dream anyway. I had to work in some new computer center and there was something wrong in the wiring and stuff was blowing up and everybody was just walking into the building and reporting for work like nothing was going on. You could see burned corpses sitting at the desks and everybody still was filing in like nothing was wrong.
I kept saying we shouldn’t go in until we know it’s safe but nobody would listen.
And it was pouring rain, I was wearing these horrible pointy toe high heel pumps, and I was sliding in the wet leaves, all the steps were crumbling and all the railings were twisted up.
Glad all is well 2gig
Good luck ems
please don’t poke the baby! Apes
And the day is ending with good news. That’s nice. I’m up too late. I’m starting to do things like opening my bookmark, here, and thinking: “It looks like a live feed. But if it’s just a static image, how would I ever know?”
It’s in Wikipedia. Pitch drop experiment - Wikipedia
I heard about it on Radiolab. The professor they interviewed said that he’s never caught it dropping. He’s always been out of the lab that day. Last time, they had a camera set up, but it malfunctioned. This time, he says, they have three cameras on it. And, apparently, the internet.
Unless it isn’t really a live feed. I mean, how would I . . . . I need to get to bed.
G’night, mumpers.
Good Mornin’ Y’all! Up and caffienatin’. YAWN 'Tis a cold 31 Amurrkin out with a predicted high of 63 for the day. It’s supposed to warm into the 70s this weekend. We shall see.
flytrap obviously ceilin’ cat has paid you a visit.
mmmmmm appropriate/inappropriate appendages crossed re the mortgage.
Ok, now I need more caffiene and rumbly tummy is hongry. Then, alas, irk purtification must commence.
Happy Hump Day Y’all!
OK, I don’t know where you people grew up, but cat prints on the ceiling is well-documented in Looney Tunes. A cat is sleeping peacefully. A dog enters the room and suddenly “yapyapyapyapyapyapyapyap” which causes the cat to immediately shoot into the air and cling to the ceiling. What kind of childhood did you folks have?? How could you not know this???
I was awakened by a dog leaping upon my sleeping self. I had heard **FCD **get into the shower, but I missed the part where he let the dog out and fed her. Once she’d inhaled her morning ration, she charged down the hall and took a flying leap into the bed. Talk about a rude awakening! Heck of a way to start the day.
Then I was going to have PB&J for breakfast. I thought I grabbed the strawberry jam. It was pepper jelly. ick.
Today, **FCD **talks to his boss (who is technically my boss) to try to find out what’s going on. My coworker John is taking over the stuff I was doing. Nathan will be coming back from his assignment on base, and I think **FCD **is going to have him straighten out some issues with the database and master templates. But neither of those things will last long… So I have no idea how long my re-retirement will stretch out.
Today’s plans include finishing up the pottery that’s in my cabinet. Beyond that, I have no idea. I should probably try to clean my studio - it’s becoming a bit of a disaster area down there. I especially need to clean the glazing station before I get to glazing all these things that I’ve made. So I guess I know what my day will be.
**tugig **- glad you’ve got an answer, and I hope it goes into remission quickly. Enjoy you kid time!
**Apes **- have you tried hanging from your ankles and using gravity to keep the Apelette in place a while longer?
That’s all I can manage for now. Happy Wednesday!!
Blurf. Another night where I was dreaming of insomnia. When I wasn’t dreaming that I couldn’t sleep, I was running around Cottonfield County without any pants. :rolleyes:
Fresh from the “Just for Swampy” department: Per my usual morning routine, I make my brekkies when I get to the orifice. I was washing out my coffee mug, and noticed the sink was running very slow. I looked down the drain, and caught in the debris trap was, I keed you not, 3 or 4 cooked fart blossom leaves. They were quickly removed and the water ran fine.
hmmmmmm - our bathroom basin is draining slowly - I never thought to check for vegetable matter.

Things are looking promising on the whole mortgage approval thing but I don’t want to jinx it.QUOTE]
I will do the only jinxing around here. and you are not approved for a jinx. Please check back in approx 2.4548876 years to determine if you are still elligable for a jinx. Good luck with the mortgage thing. I went thru a horrible saga with a short sale, 2 yrs ago but the mortgage thing was fine-ish.
Blurfy Wednesday.
Glad 2gig that you are feeling better and it is not so serious.
In other news, my nephew is 21 today, and my mother would be 76.
This is just further proof that fart blossoms are teh evil! So There!
We have frost on the ground. It is time for such nonsense to cease forthwith.
Now I’m up for reals.
I have to irk in an hour but I feel Blurfy.
The snow is gone, the sun is shining, looks like it’s gonna be a pretty day.
Well, I guess I’ve wasted enough time this morning. I need to shower, dress, and get down to my studio. So why do I want to go back to bed??
Nope, shower I shall…

Aw man, I think they ought to make a chili air freshener for the house. Heck, I’d probably even wear it as a toilet water. Come to think of it, I probably have.
If I ever decide to go entrepreneurial and market it to the masses, I’ll be sure and send you a case.
Include some Brussels sprouts cologne.
You ever see brussel sprouts in the grocery store where they’re still on a big long stalk? It looks like some kind of bizarro Aztec weapon or something. Stranger still, they’re ridiculously expensive when you buy them that way. Go figure.
