Thursday 76 - I'm thirsty!

Well, homework is handed in so all I have to do is check in one more time tomorrow and I'm done with school until I take my final next week. Works out good because I'll take the final on Tuesday and then I won't have to worry about school again until I get back, so it's a true vacation - yipppeee!!!!

Slick, I can't believe you had your own ax too! I thought we were the only kids in the world with our own axes. :rolleyes: They were put to good use and then - thankfully - my dad made a wood splitter which was soooo much easier than chopping. But then of course he could make more wood faster, and who had to haul it all? Yep, you got it. :rolleyes: :D

Here, have another nekkid beer and tell me more stories. However, don't feel slighted if I doze off, it's been a long day....

Oh, oh, Mario didn't listen and he's in the cherries again - quick, somebody, take the chandelier down before he starts swinging on it again and slopping those cherries all over Slick's clean bar!:eek:

Would love to sit and tell stories Debbie, but it must be bedtime for you about now. Sleep well my friend and hopefully you will check in tomorrow before you leave for vacation.

Well I think I might be able to sleep now. Just took a nice warm bath and had a real live beer (not cyber and not nekkid, unfortunately), so I'm off to see if the sandman comes. This only happens like two or three nights a month for me, so it's really not a problem, but it sure makes me sympathize with those who do have a real problem. :(

Tubby is now curled up on his daddy's clothes (which happen to be laying on the floor in the bathroom since he took a hot tub before me and didn't pick them up afterwards :rolleyes: ). Peanut came barging in a bit ago, but evidently decided it was bedtime since that's where she is now. She's such a cutie. :D

So I'm off. Slick, please give big hugs and smoochies to Speckles and Max for me and I will definitely check in tomorrow.

G'nite everybody. :)

Gee thanks Slick. :) School's not going to well right now. I hate it when they ask a question on a subject that we covered 3 classes ago. Like I'm really going to remember the details of that when I can't even remember what we covered 3 weeks ago much less 3 classes ago! :rolleyes:

I don't know the names of any pretty and fruity drinks, but they always come with an umbrella, don't they? ;)

Mmmm.....crab dip....

Here Slick, I found some of that apple wood that Laurie (I think it was her) brought in a few weeks ago. Really makes the place smell nice.

No problem David, as long as there's no hanky panky going on. This is a family bar after all.....sometimes. ;) :D

---

Yes, I know this is a family bar, but we are just back here holding hands and listening to music. I don't want to lead Mario down the wrong path!

Well I guess I'm 'bout fine as frogs hair Richard, thanks for thunkin' of me. Speaking of frogs... how's Sipowitz? And where is Willie? Unless she sees for herself she just might believe who know what about what Mario tells her about what's going on in that corner :eek: Good snack-a-roo's Slick, anyone up for breakfast? Bloodies are always a good wake-me-up while I get the griddle going. HI LOGAN! One jar Bloodies and a pitcher of Mimosa's (just for us Logan). How about some of those Chesapeake Bay crab eggs benedict that we had some time ago? We can sit on the veranda and wait for the West Coast lazy bones to wake up ;) Did you find that stash of apple wood T&P's Mom? I put it under the back porch to keep it dry.

Good morning Laurie. Jeez it's not even 6am here and you've started the partee already. Give me time to wipe away the sleep and I'll be right with ya sister.

Bloodies and breakfast, now there a combo that sounds good. (or is it Bloodie Breakfast) :D Yup, we had a great fire last night from the apple wood out back. Gee it sure makes the room smell good.

Fine as frog's hair :D :D That was my Dad's favourite saying.

From what you've said about your Dad Slick, I would say I'm in fine company! Don't even try to wake Gini, last time I did (was that last Friday?) she threw a shoe at me :p

Are you two girls up already? (yawns) All I remember about last night was Donna, me and listening to Tim McGraw!

Did you hear THAT Slick, David doesn't remember :eek: wink wink, nudge nudge You did remember to take the camera with you when you left didn't you?? ;) :D

Actually, I went back to bed for another half hour thinking maybe I could sleep. Silly me. :rolleyes:
Yeah David and Donna had a smoochfest in the corner last night. :o :o Don't get me wrong, I'm all for it but not in a public place but I guess you can't stop love.
Hee Hee, I don't think Gini even opens her eyes before 7am.

I promised myself that I was going to get up, shower and go right to work! HA..........gawd how I lie to myself. Here I am, bellied up to the bar sniffing those bloody marys and eyeing the fire.

Hey look, someone has carved something into the wood over in the corner. All I can see from here is a heart with an arrow running through it. I wonder what it says....................

I know what you mean, Gini. I have a ton of stuff to do today and I told myself NO PT until I have it mostly done. Well.....needless to say that hasn't worked very well. I'm nowhere near being done with everything and yep, here I am! :rolleyes:

But I have a good excuse. I need a good wake me up drink. Couldn't sleep again last night - despite my best efforts, so I'm dragging tail today. Ooh, just like Mario! :D

So, is a Spanish coffee a good wake me up or does anybody have any other good ideas?

Laurie, yes, we found the apple wood - after Slick stumbled on a piece that was sticking out a bit. She's ok, but we had to re-pick up the armful of wood she was originally carrying. ;)

Good morning everyone. Looks like most of the cleanup work is already done.

When I show up for work in the mornings I always tell myself no PT until certain tasks are done. These are tasks where other people are waiting on the information that I deliver to them. It used to take me about 45 minutes to complete but with PT as my motivation, I've managed to streamline the process to 20 minutes.

a BM sounds good here too.:D

"---------I'm dragging tail today. Ooh, just like Mario! "

:D :D :D Oh my goodness... never again will I hear that expression and be able to keep a straight face :p You are right Richard.. ain't it funny how PetTalk makes us do the strangest things :rolleyes:

DONE!

At least you can claim it as a motivater Catland! That should make this strange habit easier to justify ;)

:D :D You must be wearing the one I had on at the LA airport?:D :D Sorry you are having trouble sleeping. I'm sure your well-deserved vacation will fix that.
Hi Catland and Laurie **waves**
Yup, a double BM for me too please. Thanks.

Wow - show up on a Friday afternoon and all kinds of things have happened. I think I can hear the theme song to Cheers!

WOW! Must have been one hot night here last night. Just opening the door to come inside made my glasses fog up!:eek: :D

MOFF, oh it was hot and steamy for sure (and we're not talking about the wood fire ;) ) :cool:

OK, you all know that I'm a newbee here at Thursdays . . . so I have one questions . . . Who is Mario?

Let me get in here and answer you seriously before "other" people have too much fun.

Mario is a real monkey and he lives with Willie and her husband.
Willie is a Pet Talk member who goes by......gosh, I hope this is right............Trayi52. I'll research that one and get back to you.

Mario is just wonderful in real life and he loves blueberries and people and just about everything.

We adopted him for Thursdays.........and he gets into any kind of trouble that we can imagine. For example, he just loves cherries, so he is always stealing them from your drinks.... or he just grabs the jar.

He also loves to swing from the rafters and has a penchant for stealing any kind of clothing you might leave around and flings it up on the rafters.

And Mario loves to dance..........and sit on your lap........and give you kisses (usually cherry flavored).

Hope this helps. Oops, and I forgot, Mario wears a diaper and it usually needs to be changed.:D

http://petoftheday.com/talk/showthre...threadid=55740

Here is a thread showing Mario with Willie's grandson.

See how special he is?

Gee, Gini, thanks for spoiling the fun. Just think of what we could have gotten away with if we left Christa wondering about Mario. ;)

Well everybody, I'm off. NOW I'm officially on vacation!

Have a good weekend and I'll see you all when I get back! :D

**waves**
Bye Debbie. Here catch. It's a nikked beer for the road. (no silly, the road won't drink it, you will!!) ;) :D
Have a wonderful time and take lots of pictures.

Debbie, have a great vacation............be safe! Mario will be waiting for your return.

Yeah, that's why I jumped on the answer about Mario..........heaven only knows what stories would appear here in the Dog House of all places!!

:) :) Me too! I'm going to be booking this weekend through Expedia. I'll stay at the same place you are to make it easier and I'll have a car too in case we need to pick up others.

Donna, by the way, the drinks are on me! But not literally!!

David, you don't do body shots? :p Hadn't stuck my head in here yet so thought I'd say hi. Heading home from work. Have fun everyone.

Hubby was just looking at some music down load site . I have now heard every thing The BEATLES singing White Christmas (shakes head slowly) its just not right. Its really a bad version. I love the beatles but they just shouldn't do some songs.

EEWWWWW! The Beatles singing White Christmas? That's blasphemy!!! :eek:

I know I told him it was just wrong.. Hes having fun on the site he played a song (country) to try and stump our SIL . It was from the movie "Rhinestone" Remeber who was the male lead. SIL and daughter couldn't beleive it was Stallone.

OMG Corinna, only 4 more posts and you are at 2,000!!!!!! Let's celebrate. Get posting. :)
