    The One-Star Fairy was after you today. :rolleyes: I bumped the thread rating up... not that it really matters, but the sheer childishness of some here amazes me.

    There's a hole in my ignore bucket, dear Liza, dear Liza; There's a hole in my ignore bucket, dear Liza, a hole. But not for long.

      Oh my, what a passive-aggressive post. But I'm sure you can't read this since you fixed the hole. Like this wouldn't post to the front page...

      Surprise. I see you. (Though I'm not surprised that I see you.) FWIW, I blocked on poster, and not because I disagree with them.

    Today is our 15th wedding anniversary. Not quite so cool as if it were a 12th for 12/12/12. :)

      DH got his first tattoo last month (after coffee), of his own design: Kokopelli with a ukulele. I was at the coffee shop this morning, we (and the other adults) polished off two bottles of wine yesterday for DD's birthday party, and today just happens to be library day. Monday is pub night. :P

    Trying to convince my family to go out for a few hours so I can watch more Mad Men. Just started Series 3.

      Still haven't. Two days of guests and I am falling off my feet. Hopefully I can stay awake for one at least!

      Where are you in the series?

      I only have one more episode to catch up!

    Uck! Few things are more disgusting than taking a swig of coffee and having a bit of broken-off and softened rice pasta sticks WF insists you use through the little sipping hole into your mouth. Gah! (My regular coffee shop is closed... it provides its customers with spoons.)

    Waiting with bated breath. DH's birthday present is "out for delivery" with Ontrac. Based on past experience, we have an approximately 66% chance of receiving it at all. How they stay in business is beyond me.

      They are shippers contracted by Amazon. I have no control over which company they choose to ship my order. It's usually UPS, but not this time.

      Wow. Getting called out on your own status update...

       

      I hope your DH has a wonderful birthday with or without the gift. More importantly, what flavor cake?

    4. nmoira

      nmoira

      Thanks. :D

       

      The gift arrived intact at 8pm. Phew. His birthday is today. Requested meal is chicken enchiladas and I've made a pumpkin pie, his favourite. There's going to be a small party Saturday (and a game of Agricola) for which one of the guests is picking up a cake from a local bakery. We call it a "ho-ho cake" because the flavours are reminiscent of ho-hos (but with caramel too), but it's really much better than that. :D

    Well said. :)

    What a great post. Thanks. :)

    What a horrible day. Our dog was attacked on our afternoon walk, slipped his collar and disappeared. Thankfully he came home, but not before many tears (many mine). He's a sweet, shy, formerly terribly neglected shelter dog we've had for about eight months. So the good part: "home" IS "home" to him, and he wasn't badly injured. Gotta keep telling myself that. Phew.

      How scary. So glad he found his way home. Hugs to all of you.

    What have I done wrong such that Pandora thinks I'd ever want to hear Men at Work?

    What if the only thing stopping you from being a superhero is not wearing your underwear on the outside?

      Why have we not met up and hung out yet? I LOVE your status.

    Zero unread items in Google Reader. Zero unread items in my inbox (and a plethora of new filters to help keep it that way). Ha! Starting my New Year's resolutions early.

      Good for you! I discovered the beauty of email filters myself a few weeks ago. So helpful! Don't you love starting with a clean slate?
