Good bye February. (Have I mentioned how much I hate February?!)

But February is my birthday month.

But February is my birthday month.

I know, I'm sorry.
@Cesar R M's and BFF/SIL's too.

I just hate it for other reasons.

My dog just ate an entire stick of butter. I had piece of toast a few hours ago, and forgot to put the butter dish in the refrigerator. I just went down to the kitchen to take a peek at the crock pot chili I'm making, and I noticed the butter dish on the floor . . . missing the butter. I called my dog over and pointed to the butter dish; he took one look at me and bolted up the stairs!

Well, look at it this way...you won't have to baste him when you put him on the grill
Speaking of crock pots...I gotta run...jambalaya has been in mine for 7 hours and I gotta get busy peeling shrimp and making rice. TTFN

Oh, he'll be bolting later too.
Right outside. Be ready!

Live long and prosper.

RIP - Leonard Nemoy.

Amen

I feel as if I have stirred up a bit of a hornets nest about the topic of smoking in the parks. Can I hide in here until all the folks with pitchforks get tired and go home?

This is a safe haven.

Yah, I'm waiting for Act 2 of the Great Butter Heist . . . or some less than fragrant gas . . .

Thanks Jennifer... You just summed up exactly what I have been trying to communicate. I feel your loss and understand that you, of all people should hate smoking. That, however, is not a reason to hate smokers. They are living in their own, self imposed hell.

Exactly. When I do smoking cessation for my patients who are smokers I often get the response that they wish they never started. I really feel bad for them because most are trying to quit that I have encountered.

Oh my! Too flippin' funny!
DWifey was in the kitchen this mornin' butterin' some toast. Belle was in the kitchen with her (Ranger was in our room with me), and when DWifey turned to get some juice from the fridge, Belle went for the tub on the counter. Luckily (for us, anyway ), DWifey caught her out of the corner of her eye and grabbed the tub of butter just in time. Opportunity lost in the blink of an eye. Ya' gotta' be quick, 'round here.

Haven't logged in here since early yesterday morning, and needed to catch up. You always have your own unique perspectives on everything, so, of course, I just had to run to the thread to see what mischief you got yourself into this time! Good grief--took me 20 minutes to read through all those pages. Talk about a hot button topic! Yikes. And it's still going on . . . (Oh and by the way, @StarWarsGirl95 , you had some great posts in that thread as well. )

I'm going to have to check it out.

Can't trust any of those quadrapeds as far as you can throw them, I say!!!

Greased lightning!

You'll need a good chunk of time. It's still very much "alive" up there . . .

Ocean's Eleven is undoubtedly one of the best heist movies ever!
Can anyone tell me though - does Andy Garcia always walk like a duck, or just in the role of Terry Benedict?

Spoiler

Julia Roberts is almost palatable in that movie; just not worthy of 2001 George Clooney.

Double like on your spoiler

But February is my birthday month.

And, you like the cold and snow, so it is/was the perfect birthday month for you...!

 

[seahawk7]

Didn't mention it earlier 'cause I thought they'd be gone by mid-morning, but, down here in the Texas Tundra, we still had icicles hangin' from things after 2p...!

We had lots of snow here. My SIL from Alaska texted me that we got more snow than they did!

Red wine goes with jambalaya, right...?

 

[seahawk7]

Oh, I hope you'll feel better soon. Can someone bring you some lovely French Onion Soup--it will sweat the illness out of you.

I would love some but I can't think of anywhere that makes it good here.

 

[seahawk7]

Seems we're rarities jennifer.
Don't you get weird faces when you say all that? "I dont drink, smoke or drugs"
or in my case.. not even coffee.

I get these looks all the time.
its like they expect you to at least drink when you're an adult :|

I don't drink either. Many at my work do and they don't like that I don't drink. It's weird.
