9298 – friday

I need never hear the phrase “eyes like gimlets” or variant “gimlet-eyed” again. I like the word gimlet and all, but enough is enough.

Unrelated, I could go for some tasty quiche. Had some blah pad thai at Noodles & Co. in annapolis while we sought out Alan’s Birthday prezzie. It didn’t do much for me, but the cookies and cream milkshake en route home was quite good.



BHK reminded me of the Geister game… you can play it online at BrittspielWelt ! (If you see scottobear there, come say howdy!) If I can get BHK into the online version, maybe we’ll pick up (or make a home version of) the board game… plus… BrittspielWelt has a nice collection of Carcassone w/ expansions, not just Yucata‘s Hunters and Gatherers. (if you’re on yucata, say hi to scottobear there, too!)

Rules to ghost in comments – simple game – but fun.



Dreamt that Tigger taught Pye to smoke, and that he nearly burned down the in-laws house after getting too close to the gas fireplace.

Newton knows that kitties shouldn’t smoke! (And so does pip !)



“Hard knocks life” from Annie stuck in my head this morning, and throughout the day.

Just this part: (It’s all I know!)

It’s the hard-knock life for us!
It’s the hard-knock life for us!

‘Stead of treated,
We get tricked!

‘Stead of kisses,
We get kicked!

It’s the hard-knock life!

Got no folks to speak of so,
It’s the hard-knock row we hoe!

Cotton blankets,
‘Steada wool!

Empty Bellies
‘Steada full!

It’s the hard-knock life!


Don’t know why.. my life is pretty keen, and without want.



May the Great Gazoo rest in peace. Plus, Blazing Saddles and the CB show. Thanks for the fun, Harv. Now go do that voodoo that you do so well.



The international space station’s only toilet is broken, leaving the crew with almost no place to go. NASA officials responded, “You should have thought of that before you left home.”



This is what happens when I don’t mash the strongly agree or strongly disagree buttons. I respond to a few things with “Well, it depends…”

Social Liberal
