Fun N’ Frolic

Report Card Time

Since it’s that time of year for some of us with kids (or those of us in school): A mother is driving a little girl to her friend’s house for a play date. “Mommy,” the little girl asks, “how old are you?” “Honey, you are not supposed to ask a lady her age,” the mother replied. “It’s not polite.” “OK”, the little girl says, “How much do you weigh?” “Now really,” the mother says, “those are personal questions and are really none of your business.” Undaunted, the little girl asks, “Why did you and Daddy get a divorce?” “That is […]

Coffee Lovers Rejoice!

So I went shopping tonight. Had to pick up some milk, bread, munchies – you know, life essentials. I wandered over to the liquor department because I ran out of Absolut (hic). To my coffee loving delight – I found a bottle of Starbuck’s Coffee Liquor!! Imagine my total delight??? I picked up my bottle of Absolut . . oh, ok – and a bottle of Absolut Vanilla, too. (hic) I came home and made a cocktail called “Vodka Americano” – it’s like a Cosmopolitan, except without the sweet frou frou – – and more like a nice coffee bite! […]

It takes all kinds . . .

. . . to make the world go ’round. Citizens Against The Troops. I suppose these people aren’t the least bit thankful to our troops, past and present, who have fought and died for their right to speak their minds? Nah. I didn’t think so, either. Tip via: Geoffrey

Censorship only a true geek can appreciate. Not that I appreciate it, mind you. I’m a Geek-In-Denial™

Stone Face

From the category of: Don’t-Do-That-Or-Your-Face-Will-Stay-That-Way: Two doctors and their Arizona company were barred Monday from selling an unapproved botulism toxin believed to have paralyzed four people who used it instead of Botox, the popular anti-wrinkle treatment. /break/ Food and Drug Administration investigators found records that the company made three deliveries to a clinic where people were injected last month with an unapproved substance made from botulinum toxin type A. Aside from the fact that Botox has ruined the faces of some of my favorite actors/actresses – – if not regulated very carefully – it will paralyze your face. Wash with […]

Fall Report

15 balmy degrees on the slopes tonight – – it was invigorating! It was a very welcome diversion from everything else – – didn’t even think about work ONCE tonight 🙂 Here’s the fall report: Melissa: 3 falls Ben: 5 falls Chris: 2 falls Lisa: 0 falls That’s right – I rawk!

Meow!

I’m not getting any work done today. I’m too busy watching my cats get painted on webcam!. How do you do it, Leanne? I’m not sure I’d want someone looking over my shoulder . . . I think my hands would shake! lol

Purrrrrfect!

I’m so excited! A few weeks ago I was contacted by Leanne for blog design services. She is such a sweetheart! It turns out that she is an artist – – quite an accomplished painter, at that. I usually take payment for blog designs through E.Webscapes – however, this time . . . Leanne and I did it the old fashioned way. We bartered for goods. I couldn’t be more thrilled. As I am over here working on her blog designs – – she is over there painting my kitties!! Here is the picture that I gave her: That is […]

11 Things

I nabbed this list from Jeanette’s and am doing it just for her benefit . . . because I know she posted it for me. It is all about ME, after all – – and her endless curiousity of all things ME! 1. What is the longest you’ve ever gone without bathing? Why? 3 long, gross, yucky days when our well pump died suddenly (R.I.P. : well pump). It was over a weekend. Wasn’t planning on leaving the house. Put the hair up in a ponytail . .threw on some sweats and prayed that the well pump fix-it guy would […]
