Yo comprendo. Es bien. Todo el mundo aqui hablan francias pero yo no lo hablo. Espanol es muy mejor.
DS wants a car. His mama can't buy him a car. He has a little (very little) money. Last night, he biked down to the local inbred gas station and applied for a job. This will be interesting. I hope I can bring myself to back off and let him work it out.
Peachers, tip from my DS to your DS - Do not put gas in a diesel truck. DS had his first job at a gas station for one day.
Sugar, me yama es Joy. That's all I remember from spanish class in 8th grade. And I know that's not how you spell yama. I also remember cervesa and banas from Mexico trip. Very important.
I'm tired of watering plants. It hasn't rained for weeks and weeks.
I have a wedding to go to on Saturday. I'm too fat for my clothes. The invite said casual attire - what would you say that means at a wedding? These are my next door neighbors who have lived together for 10 years. What kind of wedding present do you give to a 50 yr old couple w/ everything? These are their interests: scuba diving, sail boarding, surfing, gourmet cooking, boating, classic Porsches, and exotic travel. Can't really get them a crockpot.
If DS gets a job at a gas station, I will DEFINITELY tell him that. I wil also rejoice.
Casual wedding in Florida: Barefoot on the beach. Hawaiian shirts and gausy dresses blowing in the breeze. Let your hair air dry that morning. Have a tan.
I am tired of being depressed. If DS gets a car and a job, I will be worried but perhaps less depressed. I love him 1000000 percent but am self-defined as his mom. I want to be MEEEE. At least sometimes.
Peach, I'm in Oregon. Casual wedding in Oregon - garden setting in the Columbia River Gorge area. Beautiful scenery, but what to wear???? I could fit into a mu-mu.
Then I blew the bank account at Sam's Club. Yeehaw. Funny thing, I can't abide Mal-Wart, but Sam's Club? Lemme at 'em. So it was a big-ol' All American discount shopping consumerism day and I'm tahred.
By the way, Schatzi, are you familiar with the whole tar-heel thing?

Kiwi, Same here.. I stay away from WallyWorld, but looove Sams..We call it the $200 hundred Club..Cuz, I never leave without spending at least that much..We get all our meats there, we then split the portions up and use my handydandy FoodSaver..Love that thing!...
Btw, I've been on South Beach since May 28th.. I've slip slided a bit but am having no problem sticking to the plan. (DON'T Hate me Gals, but I have to move my ticker down 2 more pounds.. )
No hable es Tar-Heel
Peacharina: "Yo comprendo. Es bien. Todo el mundo aqui hablan francias pero yo no lo hablo. Espanol es muy mejor." ( This is what I translate: I understand, it's all good.. Today is monday and I have a French Poodle here who doesn't bark. Spanish is my major).. I AM impressed! I can't even speak English..Dangle my participles and split my infinitives and whatnot...
I am sure you are soo much more , a mom first and foremost, and you will always say you are a mom first. Oh woe, why are you depressed darlin?
Wabby..Can't go wrong with a Gift certificate to a scuba or surf shop.. Or maybe a certificate for dinner for 2 at a nice restaurant...I would wear a cottonny "Fit and Flare" tea length casual dress with a pair of mules/clogs.. I have one in my closet that is about 10 years old.. I love that hippy look.
No new news from Gary Gnu.. My life is still in limbo .. I can't wait to just GO already.. Get our new nest all spiffed up, explore and get back to work..

The wedding I'm going to on Saturday is pretty much the opposite of yours. My dress fits, but makes me look fat. I think the wedding is average/formal. The couple are kids. Kids. I mean they registered at Target, what can I say? Not that that wasn't a practical thing to do, but the list was pretty amusing. They registered for computer equipment, for heaven's sake. Your couple would be very hard to buy for. I'd be tempted to buy them a side of beef or something.
Cowp, Franciass is not a nice way to say Francais. Et l'Espagnol n'est pas meilleur.
Au revoir. Je dois sécher mes cheveux, manger le déjeuner, et conduire à la prochaine ville en trente minutes.

, except we live 75 miles from it, so we have to use the local grocery store for most perishables.
You know ... I made this post and half of it, the middle half, disappeared. It's kind of like that woman who cut my medium length hair short on top because SHE DECIDED it wouldn't lay flat that way. I hate her hater her hate her. I had just finished growing it to one length.
Anway: I am depressed because if have no man, no money, no decent job, no life, etc.
Shots so beautifully proved that cows can instinctively translate that I am taking on snooty Kiwi.

Ahem ... "Good bye. I have two little Chevys that live in my manger. In 20 or 30 minutes, they will perform a vaudeville routine."
Wab, Sam's is a Walmart product. You buy too much of whatever you buy. Their clothes look great and fall apart in the wash. They don't have the same thing all the time. They had great tuna wrapped up in 7 can bunches but no longer. In the winter they had Land O Lakes hot cocoa. Yummo. They have detergent in bottles that are too heavy to move. You put the on the counter and get the liquid from a spicket on the side. I don't know that I've eve attempted to spell spicket. I have not thought of buying meat there but now feel that I need whatever Shots is using to rewrap hers. Where'd you get it, Shots?
Sam's is a membership store. Ours had a WalMart gas station in front but converted it to a Sam's one. Now, you have to put your stupid membership card in the machine before it will dispense gas.
I remember Costco in California. Sam's is hugely groceries. Costco was gadgets and knickknacks and jewelry, I think.
Cowser! I read your translation and nearly lost all "clenching ability" - Near PEED myself! Hmm, we've got to get you out of that rut! Sigh, tackle one thing at a time..but if your livin in East GaPip, I dunno how many options are available to you for a job or a man..
Wabby: Yeah we have Costcos and BJs too.. but they just don't compare to Sams.. Although they are basically the same.. Bulk buys and a smattering of this and that..
Ki-oui, 75 MILES! GADZOOKS WOMAN ! I can't imagine living so far away from all the trappings of Suburbia. Frozen Tootsies Maine..hmmm.. I've been to Bah-Habah, Sullivan, Bangor, Arcadia park... did the stalking thing and visited Steven Kings house and the Blueberry Festival..Maine Tis BeeYoutiful, but alas too bitter cold too fast for me... Did we already talk about this? My mind is slipping..And it's pronounced "Tar-shay"...
You have been INTO STEPEN KING'S HOUSE??? I was once with Bagz when her mom left Stephen a love note on his gate. That was the romantic highlight of my life (since all others are garbage in retrospect) but we didn't get in. what is gapip?
It's called a Food Saver and I got it at Sam's Club.. Basically it vacuums out the air and then you heat seal the bag up. I've had meat in the freezer for near a year and it taste fresh. I use it for fresh picked strawberries etc.. most anything. I really thought it was going to be another useless gadget to add to my growing useless kitchen collection..but it turns out I use it alot. I like to also throw marinade into the bag, seal it up and then when it freezes and thaws it's already marinated for me.
Great description of Sams! I have a 500 gallon ALL detergent with spigot.. And the 84 oz bottles of Heinz Ketchup. oooh Land O lakes Mint Chocolate Coca..my FAV..I bought the 50 pouch variety set...ha ha!
East Gabip.. It's like BumF*ck Nowhere, Far away , A catch all phrase for a very rural area...
Sigh, No, Not IN his house.. I too was at the gargoyle festooned gates.. I did see Tabitha.. Tabby was not looking her best, had stringy greasy hair, wearing a very old Stained sweatshirt atop Brown plaid polyester pants. I waved "Hi Tabitha!" she squatted down to pick up the newspaper and look like she was swatting at me when she returned the hello(?). We wandered about Bangor looking for his house, when I had DH pull into a convenience store.. i asked the clerk.."Do you know where Steven King lives.." and he pulled out a xeroxed baby mappette, and highlighted the route to his door. I bet his house is filled with antiquey victorian stuff..
How nice you got to meet some of the cows.. perhaps one day....
