  1. Good morning!

    Some of the kittehs partied WAY too hard last night! I see kittehs with ice packs on their heads, kittehs sprawled out on the couches and floor, others laying on their backs with all four feet in the air, snoring softly... and strings of green beads -everywhere-!

    The chef kittehs will have to work at it to whip these serving kittehs into shape this morning!

    Lots of hot coffee, fresh doughnuts (cake and yeast), fresh pastries, and a big sausage egg casserole are ready, with more food on the way!

  3. A toasted sesame bagel with butter sounds heavenly right about now, and a tall mug of hot coffee, bottomless; tired! Between work, yardwork, issues, and insomnia... well, I wish I'd had more fun getting this tuckered out.

    Time to learn to sleep at the drop of a hat, like my kitties.

  5. LOL at the kitties with ice packs!..... it's probably a good thing Mr. AV and I didn't make it downtown to see the "turn the Bay Green" party - we got home from work, and the traffic was so backed up, we just decided to stay home and watch it on TV!......no ice pack for me this morning! LOL

    ... can't believe it still won't reach 70 today!.... this cold is abaolutely wearing me down!..... hoping to have a mellow weekend, I really should get some on-line class stuff done, we'll see!!!

  6. Good morning *stepping over sleeping tortie*! I wasn't about to get out in the green madness last night. My kitties and I enjoyed a quiet evening at home, too.

  13. I think i need to feed my cats breakfast. they have been playing and noone has been milling around me begging. I fed them right before I went to bed so they probably arnt even really hungry yet. I will feed them now.

  14. Morning, all. Mr. K and I had a surprisingly quiet St. Patrick's Day (he's Irish American and tends to, um, overcelebrate on that day). We had some friends over, including 2 women from Belfast, one of whom spent years in prison for resisting the British. Her husband went to prison too, but she got a longer sentence for turning her back on the judge.

    It's a beautiful day here today and is supposed to get up to 70(!!!). 2 days ago it was crummy and cold. Weather is weird.

  16. Wow, Kilroy - your weather's warmer than mine! It was 56 this morning when I went to swim, and about 65 now.

    My week isn't going all that well. First my *insert expletitive of your choice here* bank once again choses to charge me a banking fee when I have next to nothing in the account - they like to do this to make sure they can charge me with overdraft fees next! And they didn't post it til several days later, so I made another couple of purchases, probably to the amount of $25 - and now they're slamming me with a total of $175 I overdraft fees - don't know how I'll even make it to the next pay check - which goes to rent, so I'm pretty much in trouble for 4 weeks now!

    And then this morning I go swimming. Just got back and guess what? The half-size fridge I had put outside next to my door to defrost has been stolen! So now I have no fridge - and certainly no money to get another one!!!

    Where is WWM? (Haven't seen her in a day or two) - I'm ready for a martini!

  17. OMG (((GD))) I don't even know what to say. I would call the bank and speak to a higher up and demand they reverse their charges. Wayne had a bank do that too and he raised holy heck and they reversed the charges. He then went to another bank.
    I am so sorry about the fridge....that totally sucks. Does anyone have a spare refrigerator for GD??

    Posted 1 year ago by cricketsmama #

  18. CM, XGF is going to go with me and cause a stink at the bank and then I'll go to a different one. They've done this way too many times now and I can't afford it. They took $175 from me just a couple of months ago :(

    It's a good thing I'm not home much - guess I can (will have to) do without a fridge for a while :(

  19. Oh, and stupid landlord still hasn't called me back about fixing the ceiling fan and light.

  20. Hedoubletoothpicks GD! I wish you could move NOW! I know, I know, not an option. If I win the lottery this week I will share with all of you, I promise. What is that phrase, oh yeah, that sucks monkey toes!

  21. Please win the lottery, PJ! :)

  22. Morning all. GD that totally sucks about the bank and the fridge.

    I was running errands for work this morning and just got in. It is turning into a sad day for me. One of the errands was to an artist in town who donates a painting every year to our auction. He has been battling cancer, macular degeneration and now arthritis. He has become a good friend over the past 4 years and I love him like he was family and I know I won't have him around much longer. So I was alreay is a sad frame of mind. When I got into the office, I had an email from my niece in Dallas. Those that came to the Dallas meet at Mamma's Daughters got to meet her last May. Her fur baby Smokey died very unexpectedly. He was fine until a couple of days ago. He started acting weird and she took him to the vet to get checked out. His bloodwork did not look good. Looked like the beginning of kindey failure. Well last night at the clinic he passed away, they think from cardiac arrest. He was a sweet fuzzy grey baby. Built along the lines of a Maine Coon but solid grey. I will miss my furry "nephew" and my heart is breaking for my niece. I keep trying not to burst into sobbing tears and failing.

  26. Oh, I'm so sorry about your niece's kitty and about your friend {{{{{KK}}}}} You ARE having a sad day :(
    GD, OMG! Get a new bank! Unbelievable about your fridge being stolen....well, I do remember years ago when we lived in the city, Hubs was grilling a chicken outside and yes, someone stole it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! All I can say is they must have been hungry!!!

    Posted 1 year ago by katthays #

  27. Oh GD, that stinks! Both about the bank and the fridge! Grrrrr, why are people so evil?

    KYKat, I'm so sorry about your friend, and also about your niece's furbaby. {{{hugs}}} to all.

    Posted 1 year ago by Kilroy #

  28. Wow, Katt! Someone stole the chicken? Outrageous, but kind of funny after the fact :)

    I read about Bank of America changing their overage fee policy and told XBF to look into that for me. I've had enough of this particular bank!

    Martinis aside, where has WWM been? Any news on Mr. WWM's hand that I missed?

    Posted 1 year ago by GreatDane #

  29. *skids into cafe.................*

    Martini? GD needs a martini?? *Slips GD a blueberry martini through the wormhole and a big hug*

    Hi, Everyone! Mr. WWM and I were up at 0-Dark-Thirty this morning and I took him to the outpatient surgical center for a cortisone injection into that pesky C4 vertebrae that is causing him so many problems. The doctor was wonderful and he said that he believes this one injection will take care of all of the problems including pain and the loss of strength and function in Mr. WWM's right hand. I sure hope so and we have our fingers and all other movable body parts crossed. The funny thing is that the doctor told me that these steroid injections can cause people to suffer some "menopausal symptoms" for a day or two like hot flashes or night sweats. Yes!!!! There is justice in the world that a man would get to "enjoy" those feelings!!! *maniacal giggling*

    On the "Let's see how much pain WWM can stand" front..... I ordered a great mandolin slicer from Amazon and got it last week. I had one but it was a piece of junk and I got disgusted and threw it out. The reviews of the one that I bought on Amazon were great but several people mentioned that the blade was really sharp. They pointed that out but apparently my pea brain failed to process that valuable tip. Last night I was slicing sweet potatoes for french fries and was marveling at how it took no effort at all and next thing I knew...... OUCH!!!!! and lots and lots of blood. Not wanting Mr. WWM to realize what a bone head I am (as if he didn't already know) I cleverly wrapped my finger up in paper towels which were immediately saturated with blood, which of course he noticed. So he unwraps my finger and on the middle finger of my right hand I pretty much sliced off the tip of my finger and half of the finger nail. But I am proud of myself because I didn't whine :-) Mr. WWM gives this huge sigh and takes me off to the bathroom and applies a bandage about the size of a baseball glove. Tres chic! I have to say - it really does hurt and you don't realize how much you bang your fingers on stuff until you have a big owwie. Since the nail got sliced off there's nothing to protect my finger tip.

    Of course, Mr. WWM, being ever practical, asked if I found the tip of my finger. Actually no, I didn't. But I told him not to worry because if we ate it by accident it was deep fried so it would probably be okay.

    I think that I am constantly reinventing the definition of "dumb".......

  30. Morning everyone !! I am frustrated. I got an 85 on my math test. It was 10 questions and worth 10 points each foe a total of 100. My teacher gave me 5 points off for forgetting to write y= before my answer even though I believe its implied...another 5 off for making an answer negative even though the other twenty steps of the problem were done correctly(50 percent off a problem when you mess up a twentieth of it?) And another 5 points off for using the word number instead of the word function. That is way too picky. Everyone around me got fifties and sixties and he won't curve.Grr. my German midterm is in thirty min so back to studying!
