What Made You Smile/Laugh Today?

Indulging a craving for a Reese's peanut butter cup for breakfast while snuggled up next to a morning fire with hot cup of coffee chaser. Mmmm.

Today is going to be a great day. :)
 
flirty teasing my physical therapist.

If there was any doubt in my mind before that he is a sadist after hours, it has been completely blown away. :D


If he were available.....:devil:
 
The talking whale!! I swear it sounds like he/she is making fun of the way we talk. You know? Sort of like the Muppets Swedish Chef makes fun?

If you haven't heard it... here's a link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E19vQOiZ8z8&feature=related

It's not human speech, but it is different from typical whale sounds. It is about 2 octaves lower, and mimics the cadence. Made me smile...
 
What is this "Kobo" of which you speak? Is it some form of frozen book that one thaws at home in the microwave for consumption in front of a roaring fire to fend off the chill of August?


You live in the mid-west with your winters and have the nerve to post this? :rolleyes:

It was my attempt to support a Canadian business but it was sold, I think to a Japanese company. :(
 
Aaaaaannnnnd I just realized I posted this in the entirely wrong thread thingie. But don't care one itty bitty bit because it would take energy to move it. whine. whinewhinewhinewhine.... (Smoking Loon Pinot Noir to be precise.)

So.Tired.

It's only been two weeks, and this working two jobs/7 days a week thing is becoming a struggle. I'm exhausted, I haven't yet figured out the routine to actually take care of myself while working 7 days a week (ie: pay bills on time, clean the kitchen, feed myself real food), and #3 child is falling apart from all the changes. And all the "oh it's easy/fabulous/we pay bonus per transaction" blahblahblah I was told in the interview for said second job? Yeahhh... not so much. (I know, I know, learning curves, blahblahblah.)

And on top of everything else, one of The Men™ and I are dealing with hiccups, and the other one of The Men™ is utterly swamped when he's in town [work + critically ill elderly parents] so we haven't been able to find time for each other in ages.

I am tired. And lonely. And tired. and I want to wave a magic lingerie fairy wand and have everything poof into better-ness right now, dammit!

The World's Strongest Beer, Brewmeister's Armageddon, Concocted By Scottish Brewery

Paging the Guinness World Records. A Scottish brewery claims it has produced the world's strongest beer, Brewmeister's Armageddon, with an ABV [alcohol by volume] of 65 percent.

For some perspective, most beers have an alcohol content of between 3 to 7 percent.​

My Maker's Mark (bourbon) is only 45% ABV (90 proof)!

(As usual, a bit more in the online article, linked through the headline.)
 
Aviation porn

The view from one of the FA-18 chase planes as Astro 95 Heavy (the 747 carrying Space Shuttle Endeavour) toured Southern California. It was a blast watching this and listening to the crew in the plane doing the filming. One crew member clearly knows SoCal well and was pointing out numerous landmarks to the other one.
 
Niece and nephew going home! It was maybe the longest 2,5 hours of my life.

This is what they should do in schools - give the teenagers a 18mo and 4 years old kids to look after. And listen to. OMG they're loud for their small size!

The cat looks like it's been through a war, possibly traumatized for life.

I've always considered day care a form of birth control.
 
After the plethora of ideas that I've generating lately, I've stumbled onto what I and the other half believe *may* be a winner! It turned a previously raw idea into the first of a duet and then after I shared it with my partner he came up with rough outline of a trilogy. We tossed ideas around as we made dinner and it just got better and better. After working on it for the rest of the evening adding plot twists and tying up loose ends I'm ready to start some serious planning throughout the next week.

And... the other half reckons it's so good he's letting me withdraw from summer school to work on it *furious fistpumpery*
