Hi Carla!!! Been a long time since I saw you.

We are terrible today....a lot of people have either taken the day off or went home early so we are just piddling around on the net. It has been so long since I had a day like this!

It has been a while Amanda since you've been able to anything more than a drive by from work.

Frozen short exam on a stick?

Janet!! :lol: (the Drew Carey one's my fav)

Carla doesn't know to ph34r the phluids of a phlipover as major as ten thousand???

[jerseyangel]

Nikki: I believe that you are pregnant.

OMGawd....could it be?

I was doing so well Sun/Mon, I just had to test Tjoe's new organic fake fritos, in the hope that, like tomatoes, the Organic aspect would make it ok.

Nope. Have had a slow mushy brain ever since, but getting better now.

Ahh yes Peeder, where has the Common Sense gone . ...

Sorry 'bout the mushy brain and all, Pataughm....is it too much to ask to have a freaking treat once in a while???

And you said "Peeder"

What's wrong with my post count?????

Oh Cahr-lah....nothing wrong, per se....it's just that you are getting pretty close to a roll-over to a number so far mostly unheard of.....except of course by Moi. Here in Sillyville, such noteworthy post rollovers are commonly met with phluid onslaughts. Word to the wise--check yer plumbing and carry an umbrella

Ugh! I have a sore throat from H-E-double hockey sticks.

Double ugh! Feel better soon, Julie

Sorry you missed these, Alex:

Wouldn't want to get caught in the rain wearing one of those numbers

.....or with a post-count like Carla

Sensible Observations:

Loved those, Janet!

[DingoGirl]

Nikki: I believe that you are pregnant.

:lol: OMG - she'll be thrilled to hear that

Awwww Weezeee!!! I miss that always by my side furry friend

'tis an unfailing comfort........JOO-LEE!!!!!!!!!!! You MUST get another......even when you are sick, they are right there, requiring little.

OMG - right now, Weezee is crouched at the front door in her sphinx position (cutest thing EVER), waiting for Daddy....... (who is out on his blasted MOTORCYCLE )

and Julie - sorry about your sore throat - heinous!

About your kitty Will, sounds like he skipped the toddler years and went straight into his teens. Look at what he is pulling already

yes - a true teenaged kitty, that Will!

Sensible Observations:

1) When I die, I want to die like my grandfather--who died peacefully in his sleep. Not screaming like all the passengers in his car.

[elye]

Superb, and VERY sensible, Observations, Janet!

Frozen short exam on a stick?

Took me a sec, Ptaoughmnhmn.......

Well, I now have both of my children home for the summer. A superb final concert....Jack was quintessentially librarianish - - he truly captured the spirit, the mindset and the attitude that encompasses one of these hard-working individuals. His big sister sat beside me chortling away, saying things like, "Gawd, he looks like such a major dweeb"......I quietly told her to wait for the hockey pads scene........this quietened her.

[jerseyangel]

Took me a sec, Ptaoughmnhmn.......

I still don't get it.... Is it a Corner Gas thing?

[elye]

I still don't get it.... Is it a Corner Gas thing?

Gawd, Ptaoughmghmn, I'm a bit concerned.......I'm starting to read things the way you do......

It was another way to read Julie's :emoticon:.....the word "quiz" was there, and "icicle", I believe......Having trouble remembering....it was very phunee and clever at the time!

[elye]

Jack came into the room and asked one of his great questions:

Why do we say that people are "head over heels" when they're in love? Aren't we normally this way?

:lol: I actually can't believe how nice those dresses are. But I spilled about half a class of wine (white thank gawd!) on my chest area at the reception so things may have gotten a little R-rated had I been wearing one of those beauties.

Yeah for Jack! Sounds like a very charming concert. Must be great for his confidence too!

So I saw Get Smart with my grandpa this evening. It was quite good -- funny, entertaining. I wouldn't say superb but good. I'm almost embarrassed to admit this bit I almost ate licorice at the theatre! What's wrong with me? The second ingredient is wheat flour! Licorice just doesn't immediately make me think gluten. I bought it and almost ate it without looking at the ingredients. I really am careful -- I just nearly lost my mind for a minute. But thankfully crisis averted.

Right now my bro is over watching the NHL draft with Ryan. It's quite agonizingly boring! I do feel bad for the guys who are sitting there with their parents not knowing if they're going to be picked. There will be many sad young men tonight. Poor guys are only like 20; lots of stress and disappointment for people that age.

[tom]

whaaat? did those ersatz Fritos go to his brain?

Hehe I knew referring to quizz-cicle was a reach.

But way to go Em!!

(So, no, not a Corner Gas thing P

Uh-oh!! So's the Ripper - I've wondered the same thing.

[jerseyangel]

I think the term comes from "falling head over heels" in love. Apparently, when one falls, the heels at some point may be higher than the head.

Or not.....

[tom]

Sounds like heels over head to me!!!!!

Shins over skull? Metatarsal over mandible? <persondible?>

[blueeyedmanda]

Ok don't you hate when you want to see a movie, purchase a DVD and no store carries it....We are trying to track down Airline and you can only order it online....hate that!

[jerseyangel]

Sounds like heels over head to me!!!!!

Ya know, looking at it, you're absolutely right!

[jerseyangel]

This is what my Friday nights have come to--sitting at the computer in my jammies, eating almond butter from the jar. Don't know if I can take much more excitment

[Ridgewalker]

19) Do you know why they call it

[elye]

Good Saturday morning, Sillies!

Sophie spent all last evening turning her room upside down, gathering junk material to sell at her friend's garage sale today. She came into the living room with a garbage bag FULL of evidence of her pack-rat status.

I did an unwise thing. I peeked in the bag. GAH!! I whip out her two stuffed bears that were given to her, a year apart, when she passed senior kindergarten, then grade one. Ya GOTTA keep those!! Then, more unwise manouvers - - dug down some more , and there was her Etch-a-sketch that we gave her for Christmas when she was four, and she and I sat with it on her bed every night concocting amazing faces and animals together....What are you thinkin' Sophie? This STAYS!

Then the beading set she got from Grandma when she was in bed with the chicken pox, to keep her occupied....the autographed photo of Walter Gretzky.....AND....wait for this.....CARE BEAR figurines ("Sophie, you HAVE TO keep these, in honour of Sillyville. Don't you understand??")

Gad. She left with a small box of things....

I do feel bad for the guys who are sitting there with their parents not knowing if they're going to be picked. There will be many sad young men tonight. Poor guys are only like 20; lots of stress and disappointment for people that age.

This flashes me back a couple of years, when The Ripper was a liitle boy in the school yard, ALWAYS last picked for ANY sports team....such a cruel way for them to organize a gym class.....

Sounds like heels over head to me!!!!!

Shins over skull? Metatarsal over mandible? <persondible?>

Just don't have the same ring, do it?

This is what my Friday nights have come to--sitting at the computer in my jammies, eating almond butter from the jar. Don't know if I can take much more excitment

I hear you on that one, Patti!

Now I gotta get up early and call the phone company so they don't send a guy out here after all.

Sarah!! Don't call and cancel! Let the guy come by.....could be a Pattiplumber-type.....

[Ridgewalker]

Sarah!! Don't call and cancel! Let the guy come by.....could be a Pattiplumber-type.....

Well, I've already been on hold for 10... no, make that 13 minutes, trying to get through to someone to tell them not to send the guy, sooo........ He could show at any time.

And I really have to go poop. To hang up, or not to hang up?

[Ridgewalker]

And I really have to go poop. To hang up, or not to hang up?

Took the phone to bathroom with me and figured, "Oh well, if someone comes on the line while I'm in here, well... at least it's not diarrhea." But I'm done and still on hold.

Every once in awhile, a recording comes on and says that "all their technicians" are currently assisting other people. Yeah right, this is Surry County. It's one 17-year-old computer genius sitting there all by himself. Whatev. Other than that, I've listened to the same Rachmaninov three times now. Hopeless.

[Ridgewalker]

Well, POOPY COW. I gave up. I guess I gotta, like, get dressed now or something. I was hoping I could make a quick call and lay back down and snooze for awhile longer. Now I feel like it's too late.

Brian and Ezra are up in PA, by the way, for a reunion. Luke and I stayed down here. It feels so... QUIET!

[jerseyangel]

Jeeze Sarah--the one day you coulda lazed around and you have to get dressed and wait for a tech that you don't even need

I say, you honestly tried to call them.....tape a nice note to your door saying that you tried several times to call and cancel the appointment --the problem has resolved itself, and you had to run out.

Then, go snuggle back under the covers

[nikki-uk]

Nikki: I believe that you are pregnant.

:lol: OMG - she'll be thrilled to hear that

OH-MY-GAHHHHHHHHHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhd!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Girls!!! Please don't jest........Nicola is too knackered to have babies <ummmm....also sterilised many years ago!!!!>

I've listened to the same Rachmaninov three times now. Hopeless.

Yeah and why is it always Rachmaninov????

Emily - Al brought home a care bear from Florida.....simply has to stay in honoUr of our kingdom and legendary floats

Where is everyone????

Perhaps they have lives?????

*_**^*<----------- some rather odd tumble weeds blowing through

[psawyer]

Where is everyone????

Perhaps they have lives?????

Tis quiet indeed. I'm here. I am doing domestic chores and errands today while Jacquie covers the store, so I will be in and out, and probably more out than in.

Emily calls Sophie a pack rat, and then tells her she must keep a bunch of old stuff. I seem to recall something about a pot and a kettle.

Aren't call centers the most wondrous thing in the world, Sarah?
