good mornin (((y’all)))
we’re under tornado watch until 11
i’m sitting around waiting for the weather to ease up - not by choice, since this doesn’t bother me. BL called and told me not to try to come in for a bit because the rain is so bad and some of the streets in zachary are flooded - you would think people who have lived their entire lives in louisiana would be a little more accustomed to storms

MrUHG is the same way (IMO) he laughs when I accidentally grab his cup instead of my own. But he also likes his coffee SUPER STRONG … like 3x the amount of grounds suggested. He hasn’t made it like that at home since we first started living together. He very sweetly handed me a cup of coffee in bed, I took one sleepy sip and started screaming “WHY ARE YOU TRYING TO KILL ME? IT IS POISON!” All I can figure is years of drinking factory coffee kills the taste buds.
amy, at least you got a little taste to keep off the shakes.

I’m more of a “would you like some coffee in your cup of sugar?” It used to be worse, but I am getting better…
Just like my tea, I like sweet coffee…

“Dry Heat” hmmm like my oven? 90 is hell to me. I don’t move. Remember, I lived in CA for a year.
Ah, I see about the coffee. I drink it because I love ALL my vices equally and no am coffee = VERY CRANKY Ghost. I happily spend more money to have good coffee but if we run out of the good stuff we have an emergency stash of Folgers that we add a tablespoon of Cinnamon to to make it not taste like crap. I don’t do sugar, and for YEARS didn’t even do milk, but now I add milk in a feeble attempt to stave off ulcers.
Hi amy!I’m good

Comment #49885
so, my BFF called last night to tell me about an awesome website. Archive.org … it has great movies that are out of copyright. The two I saw last night are “Boys Beware” and “Girls Beware” … very funny in a “Reefer Madness” sort of way. They are 10min educational videos. Boys Beware is all about how boys should beware of the dangerous homosexual. The funny part is that after one boy is molested and reports the homosexual to the police (because ALL homosexuals are pedophiles of course) the boy gets probation. Then in Girls Beware after a lot of ‘babysit for strangers and your dried out corpse will be found in the desert’ and ‘accept rides from older boys you will be repeatedly raped’ then a girl gets an older boyfriend, she is date raped, becomes pregnant “and then it is too late for advice. She had to leave school and her parents had to turn her over to Youth Authority” So the morel of these stories seems to be If you are sexually abused TELL NO ONE or you will be arrested.

See, I am not a “coffee snob” per se, cause I don’t give a shit about the symantics of it, I just know what I like and I spend more to get it… I only drink one cup a day cause I like the taste. If I don’t have one of the 3 essential elements, I don’t drink it (French Roast, hazelnut creamer, and sugar)..
Luckily my work stocks the same kind I have at home (hmmm… wonder WHY I have it at home?)
Also, ugh, you have you realize, 101 to me is like 90 to you mid-westerners… It’s a dry heat.

at 101 head for any A/C you can find … even if they make you work for it! … He is from KY
oof! last time we ran out of coffee filters I bought 2 HUGE packs NEVER AGAIN Our grandchildren are now set on coffee filters! having coffee but no filters is almost as bad as having cigarettes but no fire. But you could just use a folded paper towel.

hey now our high is supposed to hit almost 70!
and a 5:30 sunrise with an 8:30 sunset. MrUHG was so cute the other day … he JUST figured out that you can actually see/feel how much farther north we are because of the hours of daylight up here compared to what he is used to. I was like “Yup there is a difference. It isn’t like Sunrise/Sunset is all the same everywhere until you hit Alaska and then suddenly BOOM! Midnight Sun!”

Just wanted to let everyone know that not only is it supposed to be about 100-101 today, but right now (5:30am) it is already 68 degrees.

I am doing pretty damn well, I thank you. At 11:00 am, I commence a five-day weekend (if you don’t count work I have to do from home, which I don’t, as I can do it whenever I want). My lilacs are blooming (they’re my favorite flower), it is cold (36°) but sunny, Chester gained 3 ounces, and I have leftover fajitas and some really fabulous guacamole (she said modestly) for lunch.

interesting late night convo… worthy of a larry miller re-post the five levels of drinking
i don’t know about sage, Crash, but my guess is that the grandparents played a big hand in raising Trent, and are feeling the pang of separation. Did you and Gwenn ever talk about what prompted her to finally contact you? Not that you should tell us why, just hoping you have had that discussion. This could lead to a discussion of how you two are going to make decisions together as a couple. Just a thought.
anyone around?

Well, they’ve been helping her for 3 years and feel left out.
They may have some adjusting to do to the new situation too.

I think she’s just as conflicted as me,
which is why no desicion’s been made about it.
But her parents lay it on thick…
That pisses me off the most though,

I had an epiphany when I got a Sears card bill that had a minimum payment due of $10 and an interest charge of $43.
I paid off all of my credit cards and never looked back at the dirty thieves!
Now I watch commercials with amusement and live by “Mind your wants, because someone wants your mind.”

Sometimes I feel like that though,

and spent a lot of time moving around.
I finally settle down here…and she want’s me to go back !?!
Hell no !!
I love her,
but damn…
On the other hand, Trent is their only grandchild and she hates being so far away from them.

Yeah Crash I didn’t think of that delima (sp).

Comment #49853
CB. There are no easy payments.
I also believe strongly of saving. I like to be given interest not charged interest!
This is the only way to go now with the economy being what it is. I feel bad for people who have gotten themselves in so deep. But really they should have seen it piling up as the credit card bills arrived!

The “Projects ” here we call “the Patch”. They rent older mobile homes. they would not be bad exept for the nieghbors all are either on drugs or pediphiles.
I could not live there!
I could so totally live in a trailer if it was not trashed beyond repair. I love the cheaper things in life if they are at least halfway pleasant. I could never think of any reason not to have simplicity. I would love to have more of that.
I like to not have “My Stuff” own me. Do not do credit at all, if we don’t have the cash then we didn’t need it. put it on the maybe someday I will come to my senses and not want it anymore list!
