May the 4’s be with you
Morning Andi and everyone.
Morning FM.
We’re having slothful weather (storms), though I’m hoping it clears up for long enough to do a bike ride. What don’t you plan to do today?
It’s going to be another very hot day here today. We were expecting some rain here yesterday, but it never made it.
Today is finishing up in the house what I didn’t do yesterday. In otherwords, everything.
Be back in a minute. Family Mom is already calling.
Later
Good morning all. What a gorgeous picture that is, Andi. I’m beginning to realize how much I missed the woods living in Florida. It’s such a relief to come north.
Thanks. I love to hiking in the southwest and the northwest but I’m always happy to get back to our woods — I am extremely prejudiced toward the hardwood forest.
Happy Day to all the Froggy Fathers!
Thanks for mentioning that. I’ll go change the cafe.
I almost forgot myself. I saw a bunch of garish Father’s Day cakes at the grocery on Thursday. I thought it was really dumb of them to have them out 10 days in advance. Ooops. Fortunately, I finally realized that it was THIS Sunday not next.
I feel more peaceful just looking at that photo.
Morning, Alice, Andi, and FamMan, and whoever comes wandering in, in their pj’s.
I saw Al Gore’s movie last night. It’s worth it for the charts, alone, but I am embarrassed to admit that I have never come so close to falling asleep in a movie. Same with the friends I was with. Gore’s voice lulled me nearly to the Land of Nod. Honestly, it is very much like a campaign movie. I think I would have stayed awake better for more global warming stuff and less personal Gore stuff. But maybe that’s just me.
Family Man, was it you who went to see it last night, too?
Hi Kansas. I’ve got things taken care of in the house for a minute.
No I didn’t see the movie. I hardly ever go to movies and just wait for the DVD.
Some of the better stuff I’ve seen on global warming has actually been on the History Channel.
Maybe it was Omir. I could keep guessing. π
Happy Father’s Day, FM. You don’t have to mow any lawns today, do you?
Thanks. I’m not even going to look at it today.
Today it’s house cleaning. You know the old saying, a fathers work is never done. π
P.A.R™
lol. Fortunately, I can count on you to reinfornce my P.A.R.
I think he’s hard to listen to.
Well, it was funny, kb, because the problem was that he was actually too easy to listen to. He had toned down that awful sing-song, up and down kind of intonation he had during the campaign, and his voice in the movie is soft, pleasant, mellifluous, even. Put me right to sleep. He looked great, though. π
I’ll wait until it comes out on DVD, then stretch out on the couch to watch.
π
Morning Alice and Kahli. I didn’t get to say good morning to ya’ll.
Mornin!
How’re you doing this a.m. Kahli?
Okay, thanks for asking. The hubby seems to be doing fine. The dog looks worse than she did yesterday. I think that it is due to the anesthesia wearing off and the fact that the drain is working well — making her look a mess. She’s eaten a tiny bit and drunk a little watter. I was able to get her pills in her, but she wasn’t happy, even though they were wrapped in peanut butter.
I can’t get your story out of my mind. I am so sorry that happened. I really think that man should be arrested.
I had a terrible dream that I was somehow forced to remarry my ex – and when I tried to divorce him he wanted custody of the kids.
And in reality I am out of half and half so life hardly seems worth living.
Got any ice cream. Use that.
Ice cream cures everything. Should I use it in my coffee or smear it on my head to erase the dream?
Happy Father’s Day, FM. Plan to talk to your girls today?
I’ve found ice cream to be a cure all. π
Probably won’t talk to the girls, but might get an email from one.
Over on my b in comments I put that recipe for the chicken/pasta/vegetable salad down for ya. Miracle Whip is optional. π
Hey thanks – maybe I’ll make that since it’s supposed to be 95 today and the thought of cooking isn’t that attractive.
As I was telling Andi, we were supposed to get rain yesterday, but didn’t. Hopefully this afternoon because we’re getting to the point of needing it.
Plus, it’s damn hot right now.
I just told Mr. Nature that it is traditional on Father’s Day to cater to the every whim of the Mother™ so he’s going to get the half and half.
So what happens on Mother’s Day?
Same thing. If Mama ain’t happy, ain’t no one happy.
No helmet<sup>TM</sup> and no comment.
I figured everone is throwing around the <sup>TM</sup> so much today, I’d start using one. π
Obviously that didn’t come out right. π
yeah but it still looks cool.
you type the word followed without space by “&trade” and a “;” again without spaces between.
What else are you getting today (not that half-and-half isn’t a lovely gift)?
I’m not sure what I’ll be getting besides a lot of dirty laundry finished.
helmet™
Hey it worked. I’m just learning all the time.
Yay! Now you’ll find reasons to use it all the time.
That could be, but I still don’t understand why it’s used.
Well, you could use it the right way, to denote a product that has a trademark like Kleenex™ or to be funny like you hold the patent for something – in your case slacking™ or Family Man disease™
This is purely evil. But I like it.
Yeah, he said “so it’s a normal Sunday, huh?”
I’m out of half ‘n’ half, too!
If only you had a half and I had the other half.
I get the cream half and you can have the milk half.
Okay, now that’s REALLY eviil.
Went to the store, discovered they now sell pints of fresh cream in cute little returnable glass bottles. Not mere Half ‘n’ Half, mind you. REAL CREAM. Cold. Clear. Clean. From local cows allowed to roam and graze over pastoral hill ‘n’ dale.
Oh, dear. Now I’ve gone and done it. Half ‘n’ Half wasn’t fat enough? I’d better hope I don’t like it.
Nevertheless, neener neener nyah nyah to you!
Andi,
You asked me about the dullness of Prairie Giant. And I answered. But, you went to bed while I was typing it. Here it is (so you don’t miss out)
I saw it this morning. You should put that comment up as a review on Amazon so people won’t be turned off by the blah description.
Oh, good idea! I will.
Also it has a rating of 8.6/10 on Internet Movie Database. Which is very high for them.
Well Family Mom is up again and George, Cat and Tom are calling. I’ve got a load of clothes in the washer and dryer and I need to get the kitchen cleaned.
Some group of people work from dawn to dusk, but a man’s work is never done. I think that’s how the saying goes.
Helmet™ is on. π
See ya’ll later.
Happy dad’s day to the unhost and all others! See ya’ all later!
and Wayne is at work
What a weekend!! Went on the Hawthorne bridge and protested with Medea. Then heard her speak. Then stood with others (Including BOHICA) at the Veteran’s for Peace Vigil.
I can’t say what day or time or where – but I was able to listen to Lt. Watada speak… I’ll be posting a diary seeking help to help him.
http://www.thankyoult.org/ if you can help his defense fund or just send him an email of thanks, support or love.
Hellooooooo?
Anybody there?
Nope. π
Glad that’s settled. π
Looks cool to me. Ya’ll been having fun?
Ok, I give up. Naptime.
Wahhhhh
I was busy with kids and trying a new signature and tending to my diaries.
Not really having “fun” but have been raising hell. I must say though the bridge protest was fun! π wanna see a photo of me with Medea onthe bridge?
I do.
Me, too.
I wanna see too.
I have some issues with my eardrum which cause some type of vertigo and flu like sickness. I was center span for this one LOL
Isn’t she beautiful!!! Check out Cristy in her Pink CodePink Top hat- she’s beyond cool! π We were all in pink and dudes from the VFP and PPRC showed up in support and stood with us. A mom with her two sons who heard the radio alerts came and joined us, too.
and notice the cop car… blech.
You should have taken a glass of pink lemonaide over to them. π
That is so cool DJ.
Good for you and Code Pink!
That is a gorgeous photo of gorgeous women.
Thank you. Katie took some other photos but she’s on her way back to DC. I’m waiting her photos before I do a diary. As she got some of the burma shave signage on the bridge. π
STOP
THE NEXT WAR
NOW
BUSH TELLS ANOTHER LIE
HOW MANY MORE WILL DIE?
2500 – NOT ONE MORE (portion I held up)
FOR BUSH’S DIRTY OIL WAR
Many others joined us from the Veterans for Peace and some others who had heard the radio alerts. I’d say a good 90% of the commuters and bike riders gave us honks, peace signs, thumbs or cheers. About 8% did nothing. 2% flipped us off. It was incredible!!!!
And cool … π
One more game. ACK!!!!
I’m not cool -I just made french fries for “lunch”…
I have to go shopping at some point. Cripes.
Seems a like a reasonable lunchable. I had chocolate ice cream … π
Why does chocolate ice cream for lunch not surprise me?
Having a pleasant Father’s Day?
Very slackerly thank you.
How’s your day been going?
To Mer Bleu peat bog … Was looking for froggies to take some pix, but I didn’t see any π … heard them though … π
So you spent the day at a peat bog.
Sounds pretty exciting there Olivia. π
But it was outdoors, away from the city, and we were getting some exercise. That’s sounds like a great way to spend the day … π
Yeah I guess you’re right. I forget you city people need to get out to the country every now and then. π
Isn’t this what we were doing about 12 hours ago … π
I think it is. I’m wondering what everybody else is doing. Don’t they know they can do RL anytime, but to talk to use is an event. π
And twice in so short at time!
So I’m going to relish it! π
I feel the same way, but I get the feeling with more people here, I would probably be less boring. π
Tell ya what I’m going to do. I’m going to run and open a Happy Hour Cafe.
Be back in a minute.
Hope you’re feeling a smidgen-y bit better! :*
Crap. I was trying to edit the typos in my diary and I think I deleted it. ACK!
and it still has errors in it.. but that’s okay. π
The main point it – please help, if and how you can.
Thanks.
