[catland]

This is great. I open the doors and Richard ends up doing all of the work.

Now I need to thing of a DOTD. Talk about pressure. (I do take bribes )

AND.. tah dah, lest we forget.. January 15, Saturday - is Mario's 1st year anniversary at THURSDAY'S hip hip hooray! ha ha Mario, bet you thought I forgot! Open the dooooor, Richard! Oh, ooops someone already did Sorry Catland. Belly up to the bar my friends, I'll handle the next round while Richard and Gini try to dry out. Put your wet socks next to the fire but open the window first please

SQUISH - PLOP SQUISH - PLOP

Sorry guys, my shoes are making funny sounds, I guess it is all of the water in them.

Sooooo, let me share with you my idea of I AM WOMAN..........I CAN DO THIS...........(pump out the basement and garage).

Got the basement down to a tolerable level - and it started to rain like - well , you know, pretty hard.

So, I race outside with my trusty pump and umbrella......put the pump in place - go find the extension cord..........plug it in..........and VOILA! Look at that, all by myself I created a living fountain of rainwater. I forgot to put on the hose to the pump.
Not only is rain pouring all over me - water is shooting straight up into the air from the pump.

What I said - out loud, could not be printed on this family friendly site.

I need a hot drink.........anything....just strong! I want you to know that I didn't get to bed until 3 AM - playing in the rain water.

But I also want you to know..........that I have realized that if this is the worst thing I have to deal with - I am way ahead of the game!

Lost and Found - HA! That's nuttin..........compared to the stuff that floated around in my basement. Where did it come from????
YUCK!

My drink, please, bartender?

[lbaker]

shhhh, we must be vewy vewy quiet.... let's let Gini sleep in this morning Had a late night myself, talking with Phred re: road trip to WV, late call (from Eastern time it was late anyway) with West Coast. Yadda yadda... but at work bright and early - well, I'm early anyway, still deciding about the "bright" part Anything left over in the kitchen? Quick to stir up? Need my coffee before I can tackle cooking. Oh dear, I only was able to get SOME of the decorations out of the L&F for Mario's party before I became skeered of the strange noises from there - oh, maybe that was just the noise from Gini's squishy shoes nevermind

[slick]

Oh my.....I've been over on the cat side catching up on things and I didn't even think to wander over here.
Good morning Laurie...did you manage to get things sorted out with Phred? I know, I know....be quiet already. Sheesh, it's only 5:45am here...maybe I should go back to bed.

I've taken off Gini's shoes and placed them by the fireplace. Hopefully by the time she gets out of bed they will be dry. Watch that L&F Laurie. I refuse to go in there again.

That's ok, that's the sound rubber makes when it gets wet.

Has anyone thought of a DOTD?

How about a Colorado Bulldog? It seems like more of a breakfasty type drink. Kinda.

[lbaker]

I'm not sure where this old Bulldog is from but:

1 1/2 ounces cherry brandy (Mario is with you so far)
3/4 ounce light rum
1 1/2 tablespoons lime juice
3 or 4 ice cubes

Combine all ingredients in a cocktail shaker and shake vigorously. Strain into a cocktail glass.

um, you can try it first PitC

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

Hmmm...that Bulldog sounds like a little much this early in the morning. I think I'll start out with a coffee with some of Slick's Baileys in it. That's considered a trauma drink. The more trauma the more Baileys.

Laurie, I think we might need some new decorations for Mario this year since I think I saw some of them floating around in Gini's basement. Hope none of the real toxic stuff from the L & F leaked into her basement, we may have to get the haz-mat guys back here to help her clean it out! Speaking of haz-mat guys....Slick, remember the tall one, chiseled features, just a touch of gray in his side burns to make him look distinguished? Well....he stopped by my house the other day to help with cleaning up CJ's diarrhea (peeee---yew!). He said to say hi to everyone at the bar, especially you. He remembers getting stuck in the L & F with you last year. Also said his crew might be stopping back someday because they had such a great time.

It's almost 11:00 am here already, time to start thinking about lunch, so since it's trauma food day today, how about continuing with that pizza we started last week? Pepperoni and extra cheese sounds wonderful to me, with some yummy cheesy garlic bread. MMMmmmmm....M!

[Pit Chick]

I thought Colorado Bulldogs are supposed to have milk in there somewhere

...

*peeks into room*
Can I come in? One of these coffees with Slick's Baileys in it would be great!
Speaking of Slick's Baileys, did I tell you that I made some over the Christmas holiday?? It was an absolute hit! Yum!!

At least there is some sun out today...finally! I swear I saw Noah in his Ark when I was commuting into work yesterday....

[lbaker]

Home made pizza with fresh herbs of course, pepperoni with extra cheese for T&P and double sausage for Richard. Shrooms are OK but I would rather go real light if there's any green peppers (a little goes a loooong way). mmmmm, cheesy garlic bread! Now you're talking! Slicks special coffee, boy - that Baileys can be habit forming. Hey Debbie, if you see that Haz-Mat guy again ask him if his brother is interested in leading a trail ride in July

[Jadapit]

[momoffuzzyfaces]

HI! everyone!
I need to grab a cherry vanilla coke and 4 cat nip teas and then run. I have a splitting headache from my cold but mostly because we have THUNDERSTORMS moving in. (Thank you California! )

I'll try to pop back in later, but no promises.

[catland]

I thought I'd make a new "official"Thursdays thread but that didn't seem to work so I'm moving my DOTD post over here and deleting that one.

MoMo 1 cvc and 4 cnt's - sorry about the headache.

Corinna, on HBR - Done.

Jadapit - have I seen you here before? one CPB for you.

I'll heat up the oven for the pizza.
