I so hope we can co-ordinate Disney trips some time.
You have got to meet my husband. He likes to tell people how he did all the work in the delivery room.

Oh honey... HE BETTER NOT!

Lol!

I would love to meet your husband and set him straight! We could tell him we're taking him to some restaurant or something - blindfold him as a surprise, throw him in a van, and take him here to have this done:



Then we will see if his labour/delivery story changes.

 

[MOXOMUMD]

Me too. I go for the salted caramel.

I always buy something for us to share at the moment and later in the evening...and a snack for the next day...and to bring home... My favorite is the caramel drizzled apple cookies.

One of the buses I take is 25 minutes away from me. (Would you please write a letter to the transit authority here and ask them to move the bus stop closer to MinnieM123. Thank you! )

My niece has about a 20 minute walk from a class in one building across campus to another class. She bundles up like an eskimo.

I'd love to see someone throw Jennifer's husband in a van. Don't think physically that'll ever happen. Besides I'm sure he was teasing.

 

[ItlngrlBella]

Lol! I'm teasing too!!!

Note: 20 minutes...by car.

If I tried to walk there, I might eventually make it.

Only worth it for going down to the city if I don't feel like driving.

It's not that I can't drive them; it's more that I don't like to. I know how; three months after I started learning how to drive, my mom pulled up in her SUV, got out and said, "You're driving." I had to take the driving test in the SUV. It was convenient for one (my dad still had my car), plus even back then, it had a bad sensor and would tell you that the engine coolant is low. Down here, you can't have any alerts on during your driving test or you automatically fail.
But I still don't like feeling like it could tip over. I think the fact that I had an accident in it doesn't help (even though it wasn't my fault and the way I maneuvered it prevented it from being totaled). Even today I drove it and I was like, "Don't tip over".

But as bad as my mom's SUV is, the Buick is 10x worse. But I still want to learn how to drive it so that I can drive it on vacation.

You just have to turn it into a Lowrider!!!

Apparently you just have to go North or South of the border.

The US is all about gas guzzling SUV and trucks.

Story time. I was working and I mentioned how Hummers were evil. Turns out the hummer that started the conversation was owned by the customer in front of me.

OMG OMG OMG Ducktales is coming back to tv!!!! Not sure how good it will be but.

@seahawk7 Broadchurch is coming back March 4. I didn't bother to see it already online. Too lazy to do that.

 

[Cesar R M]

Yea!!!

Chinese Theater is so beautiful

I wiped out again in ice skating. At least the lone guy in our class wiped out, and it was more epic than my wipeout.

I felt really wobbly on my skates today. Toward the end of class, I got off the ice and adjusted my skate. After that, I was fine. I wish I had known that 10 minutes in instead of 40 minutes in.

 

[donaldtoo]

Could someone please remind me that I must go to the library tomorrow. I have absolutely nothing left in the house that I haven't already read half a dozen times.

 

[donaldtoo]

When you met was it summer lovin'?

More like "Winter Snugglin'"...!

 

[JenniferS]

Let's do some math, shall we?

Trip not taken to Cuba - $2200

$ spent (or to be spent) this week:
$240 - my uncovered portion of scrips
$750 - new computer for Son #1 (his broke, has to have one for school; told him it was his Birthday present)
$1200 - maybe more, according to Nissan service; car not ready until tomorrow

Sounds a lot like $2200, yes?

Spidey senses prevail again.

Lucky donaldtoo

And oh yeah, everyone here is still sick.
Son #1 - did not go to school; still in bed.
Son #2 - went to work, had to be picked up at noon; yakked 4 times @ work; back in bed.
Hubby - passed out on the couch downstairs; has only been "sitting up" one hour of the past 30!

I cancelled the cleaning lady for today. I pre-pay her at the beginning of the month, and she certainly can't afford to pay me back, so I transferred her services to Bro #3's house for today. (He's tryng to get his house ready to sell, and is desperate for help!)

I cancelled Tammy for the Survivor premiere tonight.

I cancelled my regular bi-weekly tea date with my friend Liz, for tomorrow.

Thinking I should hang a quarantine sign on all entrance doors. Abandon hope all ye who enter.

P.S. - I Googled it - believe it or not, "bi-weekly" means an event that occurs EITHER twice weekly or once every two weeks. How weird is that?
P.P.S. - Every two weeks is the most common usage.

Think I'll get a sub for supper tonight. Nobody else will be eating. Pics to folow, surely.

 

[donaldtoo]

I'll probably try then Saturday when I'm home all day.

My family heritage is from Lecce Italy - a southern coastal town... and if it swims, we eat it - squid, conch, abalone, urchin, any fish. I also will eat any sushi. The only thing I can't bring myself to eat are oysters and snails.

I'll probably go simple with these - garlic, olive oil, pecorino and parm regg.

I'm good with all a' that, and they oysters and snails, too...!

I picture you walking around the house wearing a mask and gloves.
