Our snow is all gone. I think it left to go visit David!

I got a new vcr/dvd player and even managed to hook it up all by myself. IT EVEN WORKS!!!!!
Now I need to figure how to get my video games to work on it. AWK!!!

Could I get a cherry vanilla DR. Pepper? I actually found some in one of our stores and tried it. It's pretty good!

If the nurse checks in, I could sure use something for my back. It's bothering me lots today. OWIE!

Connie, this stupid snow decided to come up and bother Pittsburgh! We have about 3" on the ground here and everything is nice and white. I think I'll try one of those cherry vanilla DR. Peppers!

Due to the nasty weather the Feds announced early closing. 2 hrs early for the Feds and as a result, almost all DC follows. See you guys when I get home. ta-ta.

Sorry, you got the snow. Our ground was so wet and warm that it melted as it hit.

The cherry vanilla Dr. Peppers are pretty good. They even come in diet.:)

My tax dollars at work.;)

Be safe!

David.

CVDP!
done!

MOFF
CVDP??

done!:D

No snow, no rain (for a change) up in the S.F. Bay Area .... just dreary gray stuff out ..... but chilli just sounds too darned good to pass up! I'll take a bowl of that chilli and a nice hot ginger tea

No snow or rain here - just beautiful sunshine and 60 degree weather.:cool: But the chili is still delicious.

Speaking of windows, we were having a new sliding glass door installed at my house today. "Were" is the operative word for the day. We told the original person "this is not a standard window size - meausre carefully."

Later we looked at his measurements and didn't like what we saw so we called the company to send out another person to measure again.

Well, guess what isn't the right size today. Fortunately, they did the measuring so its their error, not ours.:eek:

Think I'll take a nekkid beer barkeep.:D

Measure twice, cut once! I think.....;)

Nekkid beer! DONE!

Hi Redd,

Chili and Ginger Tea! DONE!

Grandmother of Mrs. Phred here..................:D :D I always have sugar cubes in my pockets and an apple or two. The orange things? Oh, those are carrots.

Sitting around by the fire eating chili made by Laurie and sipping on slushies.........what a life! wish it were mine!

Catland, not much fun with your new door! Look at it this way, the next one will be perfect........so their reputation isn't ruined.

What is it with window people measuring incorrectly? They do this for a living, you'd think they'd know what they were doing? My mom went through this exact same thing. They had almost every window in their house replaced except the HUGE front windows that go from floor to ceiling. The way the rest of them turned out it's a godsend that they decided to wait on the big ones. It was almost an entire year before every window was correct and in place, and some of them were never correct, my parents just got sick of fighting with the contractor and the window people about it. I don't know how many times the windows had to be remade, and the window people ended up paying for one of those concrete sill thingys that they swore would still be able to be used, but the contractor broke it while installing one of thee windows that didn't fit properly. My mom says it's a good thing that she won't be around the next time the house needs windows! :rolleyes:

Anyway, I'm really ready for some of that chili right now! It snowed here for a bit, but it stopped now. I'm starving and the boss is still here to aggrivate me, so how about a couple slushies with that chili.....thanks. :D

Oh my.....I'm never going to keep "abreast" of the goings-on in here today.

Maybe I should just sit in the corner with my cherries and listen.....

Come on, Richard. Don't be mad at me. Anyone could have found that. Now, how about a watermellon slushie? That sounds so good. Weather here is already getting hot and muggy. I so envy those that have snow right now. I know. Same conversation, different day. How's everyone doing today?

Ask for forgiveness then talk about the weather.....

I see thru your little game....

TRIPLE WM SLUSHIE......A bone for the Dukester and a CNT for the Doogmeister.


DONE!

Slick,
If a woman gains and loses weight does that make it a fruit salad???:confused:


Gini,
carrots?

and I thought you were happy to see me!!:confused:

Hello gang I'm back. What an intresting day I've had.I'll take an Ice tea please.
Slick can I come sit with you? It is a hard day to keep up to day.

DDM, don't be too envious. Pittsburgh has 5" of snow on the ground! and it's still coming down! (did you ever see it go up?)I'll take another of those shots and I'll leave your cap alone!

I think I need a few more slushies while I ponder this one......:confused:

Well, I'm off to take a final for the class from hell. Wish me luck as if I don't do well on this test it's highly possible I could fail this class - which has never happened in my life! I don't feel too bad though as I believe everyone in class is close to failing - shows what a hellish class it was....and to think I paid good money for this crap! :rolleyes: :mad: :rolleyes:

Thanks for the slushies and if you could send another one about every 1/2 hour or so until I check in again....that way even if I fail I might be sloshed enough not to notice. ;) :rolleyes: :D

DONE!

Green shots for all who wants them. That's the only kind of shot I like. They seem to be the favorite here. I wish I had five inches of snow here! It wouldn't last long but it sure would be pretty while it was here. I did get to see the ugly part of snow while I was in Maryland, though. I couldn't believe how high they could get it piled up and how dirty it looked. So, at least my fantasy of snow got a little reality.

YIKES! Good thing I made a HUGE kettle of Chili! Thanks for the extra cheese and chili peppers guys. Sorry you saw the ugly side of snow Val, it really can be pretty. Right now I have a HUGE fire going with a bunch of cats and dogs trying not to burn themselves :rolleyes: It's not really a horrible storm but yes Richard.. just a hint and our - current - Gov't seems fit to close. But it will be, as is now, below freezing so whatever wet is on the streets will turn into the infamous "Black Ice". The streets look OK but they are a solid sheet of ice. Tomorrow morning "rush" hahaha hour will be very interesting

Well, I'm back from hell, ready for a few more slushies. :D

Hell wasn't as bad as I expected - whew!

Mmm...Laurie, I forgot about the cheese and onions on my chili. Think I'll have a second bowl when I get home - I'm still at work. That way I have two computers to work on for the test, and no distractions such as cutie pie kitties....or fighting kitties....or...or...FOOOD! Can't wait to get home and EAT!!! :D

Wish we had to shut down today because of the snow. Nothing better than a snow storm and being home and snuggled in with the critters.:D

Aww finally some SUN!
Of course is night time now. :)
If I am not to late, I'll take you up on a Slushie.
I will bring over tostadas.

Sun at night time KYS? Where are you anyway, land of the midnight sun? Curiouser and curiouser but bring on the tostadas, they go ever so nicely with the guac dip and chili. Schools in the area are off again today due to icy roads but Feds are working so I guess we can all rest easy :rolleyes: yeah, right :p By the way, anyone up for some "fruit salad"? Richard? hehehehe

Laurie, greetings from Snowburgh, I mean Pittsburgh! I'm about to brave the elements and shovel my driveway! unfotunately I have to because I have a doctor's appointment at 11:00 Those tostadas are going to taste mighty good when I get back in!

Good morning everyone. Laurie, fruit salad sounds good but could I have cherries instead of melons please? :D ;)

Debbie, when do you get the results? I'm sure it will be a winning score.

David, good luck at the docs.

I'm in meetings most of the day today so won't be around much. Have fun guys.

I think it's Wendys that is now offering fresh fruit fast....

Slick, I won't find out for two weeks, and by that time I'll be hot and heavy into the next class, but I really don't think I did bad. The one good thing the insructor did is give us a good study sheet for the exam. Even if you only glanced at the study sheet you would have done good, but since I actually studied it because I had not clue what was going on during the class, I actually think I did ok on the class. Might end up with a good solid C. :rolleyes: But I don't care as long as I pass and don't have to take the class over again.....and pay for it again! :eek:

So today's Friday, the best day of the week! The Feds are working so I guess everything is right with the world. Hmm....maybe they should have more snow days......if someone gets a giant snow machine and parks it right over DC, maybe we can effectively stiffle them for the next 4 years so they don't screw the country up too bad.

Oops, sorry, no politics allowed. :o Guess I'll have the good old standby of a coke over ice with a straw in a McDonald's cup. Nothing like being particular about your coke. ;) :rolleyes: :D

Hope everyone has a good day! Hopefully my crazed boss will stay away and I can finally get to posting some CJ pics. :D

You can wax a little politics every now and then.....I'll just send Mario over to straighten you out.....:D

Coke easy ice, straw in a Mac cup!

DONE!

Slick, fruit salad? DONE!
Happy meeting day:(

Laurie,

Love my fruit salad!

KYS,
strange things in the air here in CA......Did you see that silvery circle in the air last night?:eek:

A slushie? DONE!

KYS,

Richard, I saw it too. It frightened me badly, especially since I watched the two hour special by Peter Jennings on UFO'S!!:eek: :eek:

Whatever could it be?:D

I would love to have a slushie...........YES, this early in the morning.

Just running into a meeting now....

Can I please have a large beenie burrito to go? Maybe I can clear the room and shorten up these "bored" meetings. :D :D :eek:

:D :D

Hey you CA people...what big silver thing in the sky? Terry and I have been watching UFO stories on cable TV (forgot what channel) and last week they were talking about alien abductions. I missed the Peter Jennings special last night because of my trip to hell, but it really seems like UFO's are in the news again lately - what gives? Are they planning another mass assault on us?

Oh, and you may all not know this, but Terry actually is an alien - really! He was born in 1947 when his space craft crashed in Roswell. I knew something was up because the last couple trips in the motorhome his alien buddies have been tracking him. Started out only in WI, but when we went to Texas they followed us the whole way down and the whole way back! So they must be planning something big. As long as they leave Terry alone and don't make him go back to Ork...or wherever it is he came from. ;) :D

PS - a small explanation - the CB in the motorhome started beeping in WI on one trip. Just a steady beep about every 30 seconds or so. Stopped when we hit the state line, until our last trip. Usually I can block it out, but sometimes it is quite aggravating, but even then, nooooo...heaven forbid we turn the thing off..... :rolleyes:

Laurie, got any of that chili left? It's always better the second day and I'm starving! :D

Let me heat some chili up for you. The 2nd day is better alright if you like it extra hot. Those chili peppers have a way of becoming even more potent with time I think. Just the excuse needed for another slushie ;) Enough of these and we'll ALL be seeing purple people eaters :p

Hi, everyone!

I will admit to believing in ufos. I've seen several. They seem to like me. When I was about 10, one sunny summer day, I looked up and saw a row of shiny silver balls floating in the sky. There was about 5 of them and they flew the same distance apart. I dare a weather balloon to fly in formation!

I've seen other ufos off and on since then, even in our boring town.

Could I get a taco salad and cherry vanilla root beer? oh and the usual cat nip teas for the gang!

Mario, did slick say you could put your paw in her jar of cherries?
:D

Taco salad and a CVC.......E.T. on the side???

DONE!!

Hi laurie..
You can let Mario help you serve!!

Purple people eater??? DONE!

T&P&CJ,

From one of my most favorite books....The Stand, by S King.

"M-o-o-n, Laws Yes! That spells moon!";)

Slick,
One Meanie Beenie Burrito, extra salsa!!

Gini,

Slushie, DONE!

You know something????

I am gettting the hankering for one myself....

Richard, I've been watching you make them long enough that you should allow me to fix you one. "m-o-o-n, Laws....." I LOVE that book!

Well, one meeting over and another one starting at 1:30pm. :rolleyes: Don't these people know that I have better things to do, like cyber-drink???

One large slushy please and thanks for the burrito. Maybe I'll have some chili for lunch.

Never seen a UFO myself...no wait, I stand corrected. Last summer I was sitting around the table in Gini's back yard and after a few slushies too many I swore I saw one fly by....or was that a parrot...:D

Hey....two months ago today we were opening Christmas presents....

:D

As I was walking up to the front door of work the other day, I noticed a crushed Cracker Jack box on the sidewalk. Made me want to cry. :( ;) :D And I thought they didn't make them in the boxes anymore, but this was definitely a box....

Have a great weekend all! :D

Hi all, just popping in again for a bit. Time to wind down; only 2 more hours and I can go home.

May I please have another large slushy? I must say the green ones are my very favourite. Just for fun, I looked up UFO and this is what I found... :D

UFO Unidentified Flying Object
UFO UHF Follow-On satellite
UFO Ulead File Object (file extension)
UFO Ultra High Frequency Follow-On (Navy satellite program)
UFO Un Finished Object (related to crafts; knitting, quilting, etc.)
UFO Underwater Flying Object (from the movie 'The Abyss')
UFO Unfertilized Oocyte
UFO Un-Filled Orders
UFO Unfinished Object
UFO Unidentified Floating Object
UFO Unidentified Floral Organs (Arabidopsis thaliana F-box protein)
UFO Unidentified FMS Order
UFO Unidentified Fried Object (cafeteria slang)
UFO Union Food Outlet
UFO Universal Fibre Optics (consortium)
UFO Universal Friendship Organization (Manipur)
UFO Unleaded Fuel Only
UFO USB FireWire Organizer
UFO Utregse Frisbee Organisation

Slick, my head is spinning! Maybe it's all the slushies I've had, but I think it's all those UFOs!!

Unidentified Fried Object - snicker. Sounds like something you'd find in the deep South. ;) :D

Unidentfied Floral Organs? :eek: I thought this was a family site!?:confused:

This is what you do while you're in meetings at work? I want to go to a meeting like that. :D

One more slushy for me please. Green, with big eyes please. :D

lbaker; I guess I should have worded it differently.
The sun was long gone by the time I posted. :D

Today was interesting.
The weather people stated: No rain till Monday, and not
the heavy rains we have been experiencing.
Sun was out, blue skys and than all of the
sudden this afternoon out of nowhere was a
Thunder storm full of lightening, hail and pouring
rain. Wow! What a shocker that are weather
reporters are wrong. They sure did not
forsee this storm.
