Wow Jess.....I don't know. Sounds a little spooky, though.

On a semi-related note--I grew up from birth till the time I got married across the street from a cemetary. I'm pretty comfortable around them. I wouldn't discount the cold having something to do with the cemetary, though.....

I have a ponderance for you guys.

This morning I woke up late (5 am ) and I decided to do my walk in reverse. Now while I'm walking, there are temperature variations. Usually I can attribute these to being really near the water, or on thickly tree-lined streets or something.

This morning I'm doing my walk backwards, and it's actually daylight, and I walk into a wall of cold. So I'm wandering along trying to figure out why, 'cause I didn't turn any corners, and I'm the same distance from the water as I've been for the last half mile or so. As I'm walking, I realize the cemetery is just a hundred feet or so in front of me. I pass the cemetery, and the cold gradually fades away.

This is the first time I've walked past the cemetery going this direction, and the first time I've hit the wall of cold, although I realized it's always cold right around there.

So here's what I'd like you to ponder:

Is it cold because there's some geographical feature I'm over looking?

Or is it cold because there's a preponderance of non-bodied persons residing there?

I'd say . . . no real buildings/structures soaking and storing up the heat to then radiate it back again. I'd also say that my vision is that you were actually walking backwards . . .

Confession . . . I had to go back and see if Susie actually said "smell fee" . . . as Jess has been known to . . . um . . . "tinker" . . . not to be confused with "tinkle" which puts us back to Bev's post . . . who has ever said it's OK to drink cow urine??

:lol: Wondered that too.

The part of the island where I walk doesn't have a lot of buildings anyway, and the house right before the cemetery has an open expanse with a view of the sound. Doesn't get cold till you've passed this house, and before the open grave field.

^{(_{I could never have come up with something as random as smell fee})}

Mornin' Psillies!

Hmmm. .. interesting ponderance, Jess.... and especially around Hallowe'en. I have absolutely NO idea why you'd suddenly get a cold blast while walking by a cemetery, at least nothing geographical, topographical or architectural. Must be the coldness of those spirits. .. ..really, this makes as much sense as anything else, to my wee, unscientific mind. . ... did you get a sudden chill? Feel any flushing, tingling, racing of heart? Did you hear any voices?

Must bring Jack into this puzzle. . ....he will offer up interesting possibilities, I am sure. ....

Patti, I'm sure this explains a great deal about you. . ......not sure what, howevah. .. . ..

. . . who has ever said it's OK to drink cow urine??

Doesn't everyone?

^{(_{I could never have come up with something as random as smell fee})}

Oh, yes, you could have, Jesster!

Jess, are you really the Walmart Jester? Has your name been a subtle clue that we have just not managed to pick up on?

Happy Sunday Psilllies! I have to apologize for my PEE in last night (I usually poop in) as I was brain dead (no nap= ) and gave absolutely NO context. Kurt was TRYING to cheer me up about me lymieness! GAH! Failed humor attempt.

stop that digging GIRL!!!!

STOP IT RIGHT NOW.

Judy putting the smackdown on the Q! Ouch! :lol:

Patti hanging out amongst the uhhm...no longer with us crowd? Hmm..Jess's question. Could it be a lack of trees and shrubbery (I love that word- shrunbbery!) and more concrete (above and below ground)? :ph34r:

I'd also say that my vision is that you were actually walking backwards . . .

:lol: :lol:

Susie- I thought of you yesterday when I saw a sign advertising the newest scent at Aroma Sanctum, one of the crazy Salem shops:

Don't drink your wee, drink the faerie!!!!!!!!!!!

all right, I shall DRINK the wee faerie! (per Bev's command)

I think absinthe is not a smell I want on my body......... (but my WEE, that's another story)

Did you catch that........."If we can drink the urine of cows, why can't we drink our own urine?".................WHAT????!!!!!!!!

saw taht on second glance........are we supposed to be drinking cow urine?

Yes, we probably all saw it. . . . ... Don't wanna ask. . . . Paying for....... . . .a gardener's .. . . smell. .. .. ....... . .

gave 'em 10 bucks for it, yessir

stop that digging GIRL!!!!

STOP IT RIGHT NOW.

okay

Is it cold because there's some geographical feature I'm over looking?

Or is it cold because there's a preponderance of non-bodied persons residing there?

it's just cold because it's spooky, and yes, because there are dead bodies, and it's around hallowe'en, is all.

^{(_{I could never have come up with something as random as smell fee})}

gardeners' $mell fee = smell of wee? Becuase.......maybe what they're doign when they go inside and shut the door of the trailer.........is drinking their wee?

Headed to Whole Foods in just a bit . . . signed me and the kids up for a gluten free chocolate chip cookie baking/tasting class. Perhaps I'll bring along a carton of milk.

[DingoGirl]

Sooozie! get on back to bed! 'Tis a lazy Sunday. . . . ....

but...........I'm going to do some digging work in the garden!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 'tis a glorious Sunday, sun with a smattering of clouds............

<very light digging today pholks, and Judy, don't panic - - just some touch-ups and laying down of mulch!

So it's all of Em's peeps, and Janet, watching my jacket. Yes, no legit buyers yet. Don't worry, one just like mine sold for about $60 last week......so even wif all you bogus watchers it should do okay.

Morning all

lazy morning here.......watching the leaves fall before they are turning colors.........

Jim and I took a 4 hr car ride into Amish country yesterday and it was such a nice relaxing time.

I have a ebay account but haven't been on for ages and don't know your user name there

have a great day everyone one.

One my mom's lines . . .

"Everyone who believes that go stand on yer heads!!"

I was trying to remember one of the many terrific, old-school charming sayings that my granddad used that dealt with this situation, i.e., hearing something that is just too unbelievable. It was driving me nuts, so I just called me dad. Turns out Gramps didn't have an expression for exactly this, but one of his sayings was to be used when speaking about an ill-mannered, vulgar person:

"He's got less class than Joe Maphroe the bladder-stitcher".

'Tis a lazy Sunday. . . . ....

I quite agree!

Next week will be a short one. I only work one full day and two half days. I plan to take all my big clothes to a resale shop........maybe trim some bushes and any other chores not done today

Had lots of compliments on my weight loss at the wedding, yesterday. One guy said his wife might be interested in trying this gluten free thing to lose some weight

I told him that going gluten free doesn't necessarily make people lose weight. He knows why I eat the way I do. I think my weight loss makes it appear that going gluten-free is a quick fix when you want to shed extra pounds.

I didn't touch anything at the reception.....chicken and noodles, meatloaf, macaroni and cheese, green beans and rolls.......but I expected as much and ate beforehand.

Love ghost stories but have nothing to contribute......no sillie til all the sleep-induced grogginess has lifted.

Where's Bunnie?.....wondering how Tom is doing......missing Sarah

Must get off and at least make a quick run to the grocery........Beef Stew for dinner tonite.

Milk was provided!! (yer choice of cow's, hemp, almond, or soy) . . . GAH!!! I'm full!!! Both of my kids "got done" eating cookies before it was over. They had about a dozen different cookies to try. I stayed afterwards to chat and got to bring home the leftovers of our top two picks (The Pamela's bites which I buy anyway and the 365 box mix). Bob's Red Mill had the bean flour in the mix . . . yuck!!! I DO NOT LIKE the bean flours!! such an aftertaste . . . aftertaste . . .

I been SOOOOPER busy. I had to work a looooooong tough day yesterday, then I went out with my boyfriend and his buddies (I actually had a drink! Woohoo!) and we didn't get to bed til 4am. So not me. We woke up at 11 and ate and went to a local apple festival, it was really nice and had lots of vendors and I got a really pretty cotton/silk scarf. The thing that really bothered me? There were no apples....... anywhere......

Well, they had apple fritters. And cider. And pie. But those charming baskets of apples? Nada. One big booth on the way out, with one kind of apple. Gee. That's alright, I got a pretty scarf and rode a crappy ride, I had a good day. My boyfriend didn't even eat any fair food cuz he feels bad eating gluten food. Then we can't kiss....... He's so sweet.

Jess, what r ya singing?

Bunnie! No apples at the apple faire? dang, I bet everything that we can't eat looked really good....

here's sumfin that made me chortle:

am going through old correspondence/journals etc. Found this letter to an old boyfriend in Texas (we used to fax each other frequently) and, Stinker was about 2 or 3 at this time. I had a heinous full-time job, so she was home alone every day for more than 8 hours.

So - the sentence reads:

"Dingo girl's (Tika) in the house all day and I hope she can hold it like she did yesterday. It's just too cold and wet to make her stay outside. Poor thing, being a latchkey child is just so hard on a dog - she couldn't go to best friend Phoebe's house today due to rain and mud. Did I mention Tika's an archaeologist? Her digs are tapering off, however, as she pursues garbology, her other passion."
