There's Paddeigh!!!!!!!!!!

GADS, she's cute!!!!!!!

Me latest one includes a shot of stomach pylops--a bonus, added attraction

With 'hiatus hernia' giving it a completely different tone in parts

OBama bringing his own crutch tip to Em's ho' tub

Janie and the cabbages

Who remembers the cabbage diet???? .............EW!!!!!!!!!! (phart chart essential)

GUYS!!!!

I seriously have lost vast swathes of my memory!!!

An old school friend sent me a message on the book asking me if I was going to 'Sharon's reunion do'

WHO the phark's Sharon????? ..........do I have contact with her????? ......... and more importantly I believe I would marginally prefer to poke my eyes out with a hot poker than go to a 'school reunion' !!

Oh dear gaaaaaawd!!!!!

Not sure I can EVEN remember who *I* am anymore!!

[jerseyangel]

With 'hiatus hernia' giving it a completely different tone in parts

I got one o' those too Me insides leave a lot to be desired

So anyway.....I just did the stoopidest thing ever. I baked a loaf of me tried and true banana bread and instead of letting it sit for a phew minutes after taking it out of the oven, for some reason I flipped it immediately onto a cooling rack......but only the inside of the bread came out The sides and bottom were still stuck to the pan

It was phully cooked through, so I phlipped it back in and called it banana spoon bread

It's really good, too--I just got through eating a bunch of it off the counter

This has never happened to me before!

A compact disc on celiac disease. . . . ... all the strange and wondrous noises that accompany and engulf those afflicted. . . . .... Um, do NOT think I'd have that on my workout playlist. .. . ..

. . . but it will only make the cut if it has a fast enough beat.

He has been dx with purrless disease

Hmmmmm . . . I have a theory . . .

Poor wee purrless Harry!!!!! thwarted by inability to properly express his joy! Wonder what happened in his co-dependent past, his murky and questionable early childhood causing this dysfunctional limitation of not fully allowing himself the expression of feelings and thoughts? Well, good thing he's quite cute

Ummmm . . . Nikki had his peanuts cut off???? . . . Have you ever considered that Harry kept his purrbox there??

[Darn210]

Hey Kids!! Love the pic/avs.

Sillies - do you remember the story of Janie (me WACKL mum) and the cabbage? When I left my head of cabbage at her house, and she calls me screaming with laughter whilst I'm in the grocery store? "ya left yer cabbage here" .....I must find it and post it here - - - Janie and I use the word cabbage all the time now, for many things......presently it is used to describe people's BAGGAGE - as in

"I think this new man I've met may have really unmanageable cabbage"

and then we SNOOOOOOOOORT with laughter :lol:

and we are not sure why it makes us laff so hard, but it doz

CABBAGE!!!!! Hehe. Would love to hear the story! But.......what made you think of that?

The cabbage story was a good 'un!

Janie and the cabbages

Do you guys do that because you know it will drive me nuts and I will have to go back into the archives . . . with the possibility of never making it out alive . . . and retrieve said cabbage memory?

*sigh*

It worked:

OMG - must tell you guys about my mom.

She is a COMPLETE goof, but not everyone knows that.....reserves that side of herself for just a few of us - and the side that she and I bring out in each other - - pure madness - laughing SO hard that no sound comes out, we cannot breathe, stomachs hurt and....I actually have had to leave the room from her to make it stop.

So..........I usually go to her house every Sat or Sunday to hang out and watch food porn, etc. Now, it may not surprise you to know taht I am QUITE the absent-minded dingo-brained boob......ALWAYS leave stuff everywhere - in my house, in other rooms, in other people's homes, you name it. [ Um.....DAvid found it particularly entertaining that I have about eight pairs of magnifying spectacles in my house, yet can never find a single pair when I want to read something, so FINALLY tied a ribbon onto my desk w/ a pair of glasses on it.......he wanted to take a picture of this for my sillies. Alas, within a couple of days the glasses came undone from the ribbon and now.......just a ribbon leading to nothing hangs off my desk until I find them again. ]

:lol:

<BTW this is all WORSE when I"m sleep-deprived >

So......I nearly ALWAYs leave sumfin' at my mom's - - cell phone, glasses, sunglasses, or - whatever-in-hell I went there for - and despite our careful search before I leave - she calls my cell phone quite often when I"ve just driven off and says........."you left *blank* here........" and we always crack up and I turn around.... *sigh*

So - yesterday, she gave me a head of cabbage for today, knew I was heading to the grocery store and didn't have to buy one......or so we thought..............

So there I am, quietly and benignly strolling through the produce department - she calls my phone - I see it's her - I am punchy and tired - so I started kind of laughing right away......for no reason at all...... because I know what's coming.....I KNOW I"ve left something there but can't figure what.

I answer the phone and I hear choked-back sobs of laughter - the kind when no sound comes out and you can't breathe - - :lol: And I instantly just dissolve into lunacy.

crazy lady is on the phone and she says - in this Appalachian accent she sometimes uses......

"ya left yer head a' cabbage her, right by ma phone.......might wanta pick one up at the store........."

and - - I don't know WHY in hell this struck us as so funny - - maybe because it's usually a phone, glasses, book I intended to borrow - whatever - but today it was a CABBAGE. (please note: it's GROEEN, BTW) But.......before I even said hello I heard the Mad Lady just cackling away.........it KILLS me, every time.......and there is a certain laugh we do that we ONLY do with each other......... <Janie HAS to come to our First Annual Absinthian Silly Fest in the Laurentians>

So.......there I am in Food Maxx...............collapsed over the front of my cart, bent over w/ my phone in hand, that hand on the handle and my head resting on that hand - other hand is gripping my belly......laughing sooooooooo hard that only high-pitched shrieks or choked guffaws were coming out.....in between periods of not being able to breathe and no sound emerging at all..........and I am bent over and........people started looking to see that I was okay and was not crying or seizing or anything like that....

This made me laugh quite a bit harder..............and.........well I think you get the picture........

mad dingo-brained woman cackling maniacally in the produce section, others quietly navigating AROUND this crazy lady..........

you guys would LOVE me mum!

[elye]

Pahteee, I forgot to mention yer adorable li'l cherubic phace....was this on a cereal box, er sumfin'? I think I would buy just about anything if it had THAT gorgeous smile on the package! We could use the pic as the demo cover for our Celiac C/D. . ....

OBama bringing his own crutch tip to Em's ho' tub

Well, I dunno about him bringing his own crutch tip, but the pitching-in with shovelling idea just may take hold... . ...I've discovered that he does indeed have his own psnaough shovel at the ready!!

http://www.sondrak.com/archive/skpics2/obama_snow_shovel.webp

We're set, then! I'll simply have a couple of extra shovels for the massive secret service blokes who will certainly be accompanying him. . . . . ...

Nikerler!! Who in hell is Sharon??

I think perhaps it could be Ariel Sharon . .. .....did you spend any school time in Israel? He's probably just trying to hook up with old acquaintances and mates, as we all do on Da Book.......I'd go! If it's a gathering at his place, it could be quite a spread . . .....hmmmmmm.....the "do at Sharon's place"..........yes, for certain it's Ariel's compound in Jerusalem, I can just feel it. . . . . ...

. . . Have you ever considered that Harry kept his purrbox there??

Whoa . . .. ......and when would it go off??. . . . . .

[elye]

Mygawd, Jyagnutt. . .. . ...how in HELL did you find that random quote of Soooozie's?? Quite amazingly wackl, you is. . . . .

[nikki-uk]

Snackling madly!!!!!

HOW does jan-eet DO that search thingy?!?!?! (she is GOOD)

Ummmm . . . Nikki had his peanuts cut off???? . . . Have you ever considered that Harry kept his purrbox there??

HOLY VIBRAting peanuts!!!!!!!!!!!

Yer could be on to summat here!!!....... (I'm sure he used to purr)

Could Harry's purr box have been cruelly discarded....still gently sending out the last of it's 'vibes' as it hit the bin?????

OMG!!! My cat needs therapy!!!!!

Well damned if I'm going to Israel for any school reunion!!! (although weirdly most of my classmates were Jewish ! )

Patt-ee's banana bread

[DingoGirl]

OMG

Padt's spoonin' bread off the counter

[DingoGirl]

Well, we just had a brief walk, and are not hostages in our home

Patti- How about Texas Tassle Twirler

Bev is a Crazy Bulbous Lady!

I was the ugliest, and I mean ugliest, baby around.

I am bulbous- but Nikker- I do not believe you were ugly or mean!!!!!!

Me either . . . I was the fourth of five kids . . . they were too tired to take my picture . . . and too poor to develop the film.

Em, you and I could go to Wal-Mart and search the picture frames for random baby pictures and call them our own.

Oh Gianknit. Yes- you can always re-create yer kid pics!!!!!!

Did I ever show youse guys me baby picture that was featured in our local paper about a thousand years ago?

:lol:

OK.......who mentioned their colon needing cleansing?

Happy Birthday Psilly niece Lydia! Such a lovely, elegant name!

Uh-oh--Bevvie on the loose in the Big Apple!!!

[jerseyangel]

Do you guys do that because you know it will drive me nuts and I will have to go back into the archives . . . with the possibility of never making it out alive . . . and retrieve said cabbage memory?

*sigh*

But you're just so good it it, Jan-it

Pahteee, I forgot to mention yer adorable li'l cherubic phace....was this on a cereal box, er sumfin'?

Nuthin' that cool.....the story goes that me mom was working around the yard and I was in me playpen in the phront yard. A reporter for the local newspaper was driving down the street and asked if he could take me picture. I guess in those days, they put pictures like this in the paper--maybe as filler? Anyway, that was me one and only brush wif phame

MUST GO!!!!!!! hair appt awaits -

Have phun!!

but then, they asked her if she was PREGNANT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Aw, poor Weeze.....how disheartening

How cute is Bev's pic???

[flourgirl]

Ooooooohhh man-o-man-o-man!!!! I'm laffing so darn hard my bellie akes and have tears rollin down my phace! Oh! Cabbages....LOVED the cabbage story...and love your mom without meeting her! And all of the cabbage implications! Hahaaaa!

Pah-ti B bread....scoooopin off the counter (bet it was yummie anyway). Your baby pic IS adorable!!

Bev-really....soo cute! Crazies loose in the Big Apple!! But will anybody notice?

Purrbox hidden in the furry peanuts! No wonder my telehubby makes so much noise in that region!!! All this time I thought he was being RUDE....and the poor misunderstood man was only being HAPPY!!!

Kween Niknik, your Royal Heinous! How is the schwasher situation? All piped, doped, dripless and ready to go (I hope)? I don't have any pharkin idea who Sharon is either.....so it must be she doesn't really exist!

Did anybody notice that ObaMa is holding the "snow" shovel, while dressed in a "T shirt"? NOw, we all know that there is no need for "snow" shovels when it's warm enough for a "T-shirt". I rather suspect this is a bogus picture. Either.....that is not truly ObaMa, or it is not truly a "snow" shovel!

[flourgirl]

I have a Lymie appt in NYC next week and me sis is going with me. We're driving and staying over night- can you say TROUBLE with a capital T? I CAN'T WAIT!!!!!!!!!

You have an appointment with Lymies? (singular or plural). You're going to spend an overnight with your sister and "said" Lymies? That DOES sound like TrouBle to me!!!

[flourgirl]

Just read back a bit again. You also have Hiatal Hernias? Do you suppose this is a commonality with Psilliey Celiac people? Should we take a tally here? Of what percentage of Celiac people have said hernia, Psillies as opposed to others? Or is Psilliness not a phaktor in hiatalness. Perhaps, Celiac in not a phaktor, but we'll never know unless ALL people worldwide are screened for Celiac and for Hiatal Hernies as a course of regular phySikal eksam.

Sorry bout that.....got a little strange there for a moment. AheM...I'm done.

All I know is that they phound mine at my last endoscopy. I don't think it's necessarily a Cee-lee-ak thang.....I could be wrong.

Jeez! My husband's constant pharting could in actual fact be testicular purring?? The very thought. . . .......yes, sometimes, now that I ponder it, it can sound rather like a low motor running .. . . .. ...

Hmph! Contentment, not childish rudeness. . . . . . . ..who'd a thunk??

I'm telling ya, he'd better not show up at my house in that skimpy li'l T-shirt and no sensible winter jacket over top. Gad, I'll have to let him wear Gus's homemade sweater. .....it'll just zip up his back...shouldn't be a problem.

[DingoGirl]

...Was Weezie affronted???

seriously, you should NEVER ask a woman if she's pregnant! but no, he asked in Spanish ( I vaguely understood and it was clarified with hand gestures) and when I got it I quite laughed and just said, no, ella esta muy gorda

Weez does not speak spanish so was none the wiser

SILLIES!!!!!!!!!!! OMG - suddenly my pathetic little life has turned - mildly interesting and temporarily slightly glam!!!!! I am going to dinner tonight at the restaurant where the cycling team is being fed alas, they will be gone by the time we get there - it's closed just for them beforehand and will open up right after. Only one table left, and we got it. What fun.

Um........I am going to try........just try........to get a whiff of Lance Armstrong. Want to see if he smells good I'll let you know. If he is actually still in the building, I will also see if I can cop a feel on his buttocks. :lol:

A real snackly-snort, Jan-it!

[elye]

Soooozie, I do hope you get a handful o' Lance's bum. .. . . ...I am certain that he has quite a spectacular backside.

But for some reason, I suspect that he doesn't smell great. . . . . ..
