Soon 2 Be Fiancee...I tend to rush things...

I feel that American women are battling obesity because of the insensitivity of manufacturers in not providing sports equipment with George Clooney's likeness on it.

Sugar, why are German words so long and what is this one: sockenstrickanleitung. Do they just take little words and smash them together. ?

Sockenstrickanleitung is pretty close to what happened to me when I read what S2BF meant.

I have some faboooooooo pictures to share. I don't really want to post them though, because I generally don't like to post pics of someone's else's kid, so I will either email you all a link to an online album or send some photos in an email. I have to see first whether the online album thing works. 'specially since my photo software just crashed...

Later. Or sooner.

You'll never guess what I did this afternoon and what I had to sacrifice to do it. I cleaned out under and around/beside etc the kitchen table so that all I have to do is get rid of the mail on top and I can actually use it to wrap etc. Gee, or eat... Anyway, in order to carve out some time to do this, I had to send DH in to town to pick up the senior photos that we had had framed for Christmas presents and to order one more framed. He claimed he didn't remember what we had seen at the shop before and couldn't figure out what I meant when I described it to him, so I told him to call me when he had described it to the lady who showed them to us. So he called and described the frame as sort of gold, kind of antiquey with a carved design. And that it looked really good. He brought it home, with the photo all finished in it. Not the right one. Not gold. Wood. Not what I wanted at all. REallyy expensive considering it was not what I wanted. Nothing to do about it; DD likes it; we have to send it by Monday anyway. Men suck.

On the other hand, he roasted me a chicken for dinner. I guess I won't kick him out in the cold tonight.

Kiwi

I think it means THESE SOCKS ARE CONSTRICTING MY LEG or lung... I

Kiwi..Hmmmpf, worthy of a look of disapproval ..the roasted chicken has redeeming value.

Time fer cawfee and crossword puzzles....latah my Moowettes.

Yep, German is a fusional language where they just stick everything together to make one loooooooooong word.

My dad is getting better!! Bleeding on the brain doesn't seem to be a problem any more and he's home now having his meals on time. My mum said if my brother hadn't made him go to the hospital, he could have been a goner, though. Eeeep.

So if SugarDS has a spelling test and misspells SOCK while he correctly spells all that other stuff, he gets marked wrong for all those words?? Unfair.

I see Wikipedia needs help completing that article. Let your neighbors know this. I'm sure somewhere there can add to it.

I am cold. I am in Florida.

Also, I'm offering a public apology for not sending Christmas cards. Especially I apologize to Shots who is the only person here I've received one from. Lush never sends them. I usually do. Bagz does but they come in July. Wabbs does. Sugar usually does. Kiwi is walking the dog.

Never is a really strong word. There are years that I send cards. They just haven't been recent.
Sugar, poor daddy. I'm glad he's doing better. Thank you for sharing that information on fusional languages.
I'm tired and I have to bake. Help me.
Shots, you're getting engaged? Get a big diamond. Make sure you can see it and it refracts light in water. That's how you tell the difference between a real and a fake. At least that's what my mom said and she was all about diamonds.
I see I have a private message. I am so excited. Bye

I AM going to send cards, really I am. I'm just a little slow on the uptake these days.

I am colder - we had snow.

Peachie: not to worry, I already made out a card from you to me..telling me how thin and fabulous I am. I disguised my handwriting.

Lush: You are old or very poor at speed reading . Heh heh... Here: PRACTICE: Ihave nofianceeIammarriedoncebythe popeand oncebytheKINGELVIStothesameman,Iwastryingtomarryof fKiwiettetoherboytoy. ( I just realized it is very hard to type without spacing)
But you speak words of wisdom on DIAMONDS! Mama Kiwi TAKE HEED of the grand lusherness .

Sug: a snoopy happee dance about Herrfaddersugahsnoofle ( is that long enuf to qualify fer a German word?)

Kiwi: can we see the table yet..take a pic please

Oh Lawd the Man Jesus! I just went to that fusional link Sug supplied.. I am now brain dead.. and certified for the "short bus". I think I shall continue to make up my own words,syntax, and all that other grammar crap.

my brain hurts

You were married by the pope? You are Catholic? For real?

You were married by Elvis?

I am so dull.

Dullllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll llllllllllllllllllll and fattttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt and I want to just sit and eat chocolate.

EEEK. My baby girl she is only seventeeeeeen! Away away those speakings of diamonds! They will have their first kiss on New Year's Eve, she has assured me. heh heh.

And yes I will buy some swampland in Florida. Thank you.

Non sequitur: No wonder I never got past the first semester of German.

I finished my Christmas shopping today, and Jet graduated from Puppy Kindergarten! Probably not with flying colors.... But she's cute! Right now she is tempting fate by play-snapping at the long-haired cat. The cat is on the desk next to my mouse and she doesn't seem to be in the mood.

Gotta go wrap packages and check on the shipping for that chastity belt.

Kiwi

WHAT's WRONG WITH HER??? Is she CROSS EYED? BUCKTOOTHED? DOES SHE HAVE TEETH? Geez, I hear tell in da South here, she should be a GramModdah by now!

My name is Charletta von Snout ( name changed to protect the innocent) and I am a Recovering Catholic...
Crimmanee Peachers , Kiwi can sell ya that swampland! Nooooo. It was a "play" on words or whatever.. I was married by a Roman Catholic Priest ("Fadder Al" de Pompus..er da Pius, ya that's it) on ALL SAINTS DAY in 1980 ( We figger'd we needed a holy day ) ... DeeeeVorced my husband 15 years later (or as I like to say: decided not to renew my contract).... Dated him again ( ) and fell back in L-o-o-v-e.. (all sigh) he simply could not live without me being his wedded wife (all say Awww) ...so, OFF TO VEGAS WE WENT! ( chingadah chingadah go the slots) We got our license at the CLARK County CeeeTY hall on April Fools Day ( yes: on purpose)... We got married at the VIVA LAS VEGAS Chapel ( Quite Cheesaly romantic) by Elvis. (THE THIN ELVIS dressed in his loverly bejeweled white jumpsuit, big *** belt, and cape... GOHJIS white patent leather Beatle Boots and a kickass JET BLACK HI RISE POMPADOUR DOOOOO with killer sideburns..I think he wore his Jackie O sunglasses (my beauty that day was Blinding..'natch ).. .. I dressed in Black looked magnificent...(it's slimming! it had an elastic waist! and ****, it was perfect fer our dry humor)..Ken looked ..no..BEAMED at me in his tried and true Pall Bearers suit.
I did the Bridal two step to ...(and sing with me now)Wise Men say... lalala Somethin somethin FOOLS in love la hmm hmmm..but I can't help falling in luv with youuuuuu
We drove about in a limo driven by a guy from ORADELL JOISey..(he looked very much like PAULIE WALNUTS from the Sopranos,) We remarried on 4/3/2 (We thought that that would be easy to remember..but we ferget it every year.) We stayed at the Mirage..Where Seigfield and Roy play ( we saw the tiger that MAULED Roy..but the show was $275 a piece...so we skipped that and opted for Cirque De Soliel (luve them) we saw O at Bellagio, Mystere at Treasure Island, (my fav of all the Cirques we've seen so far) The Blue Man Group at Luxor, and the Amazing Jonathan (one of my el Favorito comics) at the Golden Nugget.. (I've lost track of my (( )))) so I will end it there - or here.
So my dear Peach tree--curious Georgette, you got another leetle nugget of info on the new cow....

What did I do to deserve that? I am not a realtor.

Lush .. that's what I meant. You've sent out Christmas cards but not since the other Bush was in office.

Shots, easy on the Catholic tirade. This place is loaded with 'em.

I am proud that DS is taking charge of his own life. I am frustrated that he is not doing it properly. I am lecturing him about this. For example, he can probably get big scholarships to go to the U of F. Turns out SOMEBODY else is going to a private school in Florida and now he's interested in that. Fine. Good. But he gets to get on the phone .. don't you think .. tell these people who he is and see what scholarship help they'll give him. It's a great school. They both are. I can see giving up SOME scholarship money if this is where he wants to go .... but he needs to find out and make a decision.

Thank you for letting me say that here. I need the practice.

I've decided my AA friend has had a nervous breakdown. What is a nervous breakdown? Such a vague term. But when I see a completely different personality and it's not a good change, I think that's a breakdown. I saw this is college. This sweet sweet gentle soft little girl all of a sudden started calling people bad names and swearing a lot. She got hospitalized.

I am a choclaholtic. I don't care how it's spelled. I buy fance chocolates to give people then I eat them. Tonight I turned over most of my stash to DS to hide. Not all of it. I have eight chocolate Santa's in my bedroom and some more hidden under a knitting bag in the living room. No 12-step help for me.

Speaking of which, someone whose dh goes to AA told me that they're self-centered there. She said that's how they cope. Me. Me. Me. She sees part of my friend's problems as the AA influence. What do you think?

Now, I must go.

I'm also a sockyarnaholic. Everyone send me sock yarn. NOW!!! I want more more more.

Must go.
