Thursday #244 - 363 shopping days till Christmas '08

[cassiesmom]

I went back a few Thursdays and the last time there was a Wednesday opening was Nov. 21. But I had such a lovely day with my family yesterday that I'm not sure I can wait for the bar to open tomorrow. Hey, there's no one here yet ... I'll just put on a pot of coffee and get out the Bailey's.

Did You Say Bailey's?? Of course that is all Mario Heard.. Yup he jumped up from his nap & is jumping up & down on the bed.. The Bar is Open Now & Lets get things in motion & lets Start Decoratiog For New Years 2008.. Wait Wait are we already counting down till Next Christmas?? Mario please tend the bar && bring me some Bailey's on Ice.. Hey I will put in the oven a coffee cake for us to nibble on..

Well I will be delighted to join you for a coffee and Baileys. Just what I need. Family Christmases are not for the fainthearted, are they?

Richard always used to open the bar on Wednesday before he started to neglect his duties so badly. After all, by the time Richard gets up on a Wednesday, it is already Thursday across most of Australia.

Yes, I've noticed that too. I've been meaning to say something to
Richard about that.

I'd love a coffe & Baileys please. hey, Mario's Mom is having a B-Day
today so maybe they'll be late to Thursdays.

In honor of Willie's birthday and for those who are relatively new to Thursdays. I found this bit of background about Mario in the thread "What are your pets' names?"

Mario is my Capuchin Monkey. He was already named when we got him. We really love him a lot. He has done so many things to make us laugh.

What does that have to do with Scotland?


I have been working like a dog, getting paid like a pauper and sleeping like a log, eating like a pig and dreaming like a crazy person lately.....my new year's resolution?

Be a better bartender!

o.k. Richard - have you opened up Thursday #245 yet? I will go over and pound on the door in case you are still sleeping.

It means that no matter when I get here, the bar is never at it's busiest. *sniff*

[davidpizzica]

I'll get a big pot of coffee going here. Mario, could you get me the ground coffee like a good boy? Try not to spill it.

Don't forget 08 is a leap year so we have an extra day to shop and decorate.

Hot chocolate for me. It's cold and freezing rain/snow here right now. Good to be snug inside.

I have plenty of Christmas Cookies I'll share!!! Yes, Mario you can have two!

[slick]

Oh my gosh, I didn't even see that Thursdays was open. Whoppee!!!

So for all of you who are having a wonderful week off and don't return to work until '08, enjoy every minute of it. I'm working today and tomorrow but the good thing is that most people are off so the office is nice and quiet....the purrfect setting to get lots of work done.

Moff, please stay warm and I'm praying for decent weather for you. Weather report for today says snow but have not seen one flake yet.

Leap year? Does that mean we can leap right past '08 and into '09???

Barkeep, may I have a Grand Marnier - warmed - please????

Cheers everyone.

Well it's cold and blustery here too - they're even predicting snow for San Francisco! So time to get out the muk-luks and warm fuzzy blankies. Where is that Hot Toddy we had running around here a few weeks ago? Slick, where are you hiding him?

I have chocolate - lots and lots of chocolate! Truffles, peppermint bark and those Ferrero Rocher thingies. PLEASE! Eat! Eat! I can't stand it anymore! I'm falling into a chocolate coma!
