Good to see you here, OM! Are you back in country?

 

[Lilianna23]

Make sure you pronounce it correctly. "lake-e-fucked"...

We just need to get that last 200 more inches before summer.

Cold here too.

And here I am freezing because it's in the 30s!

And here I am freezing because it's in the 30s!

It's all relative...

Good morning denizens of the diner. The wind is wicked and temperate is at least warm enough for salt to work.

Yesterday , I made my bean vegetable soup and a cherry chocolate coffee cake.

It was nice to sleep in.

Cherry chocolate coffee cake? Two of my favorite flavors! I need the recipe, please! STAT!

Me, right now! In a pretty pink lounge outfit!

 

[Lilianna23]

I need some sorts and to shut this computer off...

I want to be left alone at the same time as wrapped in a blanket with soft jammies slippers a bottomless cup of hot chocolate and someone to brush my hair while watching baking shows while someone cleans my house and fixes shit....

Is that too much to ask

I'll be right over with my friend! She will clean and organize your house while I make you hot chocolate and brush your hair!

Going well. Have to go through a sort of re-qualification to make sure I can cross t’s and dot i’s. Other than that it’s been laid back. In fact…so laid back…I’m at the tropical port where this little guy set sail…

Legend has it they (the S.S. Minnow) never made it back. They keep this as a memorial…

I did find us the perfect 50+ Greasy Spoon vacation vessel!

She’s got great lines, and as they say in that movie The Philadelphia Story, she’s Yar! Wat, Wonderer, and myself probably have enough know how to get’er seaworthy. Now if you have reservations of setting sail on an old boat, and suffer the same fate as the poor crew of the Minnow, then maybe this little gem?

She’s a 50 Beneteau, a fine sailor. Notice the straight bow…that’s a modern adaptation. Even the military is launching their new boats with this.

So, we need a crew. I nominate Boat as Cpt. I’ll be first mate (as long as I can wear the Gilligan hat!), we need a purser, a bartender, a hostess…any other Love Boat crew I’m forgetting?

The rest of Ye Scurvy Dogs can cast lots for what remains!

I nominate Miss K and myself as cooks!

One thing I’m hearing is if you get a phone call and answer…and you hear nothing…

DON’T SAY ANOTHER WORD! They’re recording your voice and then mixing it with AI to scam…

Can’t trust anyone.

If I don’t recognize the number…I don’t answer. If it’s important they’ll leave a message…maybe I’ll call.

Same! Everyone I want to talk to has their own ringtone. If my phone rings with the generic tone, I don't answer.

 

[Lilianna23]

Yep…being 5 hrs difference from EST, it’s lights out at 8…teenage girls were frolicking in the pool at volume 11 …hotel pain is real…

Love the painted tank! Looks like this duck!

 

[Lilianna23]

Me and lil and l2 can be something

We already are!

 

[Lilianna23]

I just assumed you’d be the Medical crew, but totally understand if you want a career change and take over for Julie!

L2 needs to be The Professor!

Haven't had a chance to look at anything all day.
Fuck today - and while we're at it?
Fuck next Tuesday and all of next week!
I'm tired of doing 2-3 FTEs a day.
Plus - someone didn't mute their mic on an All Staff meeting the other day. So Upper Mgmt's feefees got hurt and they issued a Mandatory Web Cams LIVE for ALL Meetings - no exceptions mandate today.

Thank you for listening... we now return you to your regularly scheduled programming.

I hope you're documenting all the work you're doing!

When my boss would try to load one more responsibility on me, I would ask her which of my current ones would she like me to delete.

 

[Lilianna23]

I took care of the parents ate a bunch of pizza. Gonna have some more food in a moment... and some of the creamsicle cookies i made. Gonna send some to a friend......

Creamsicle cookies? We need pics and a recipe, please!

 

[Lilianna23]

We can tag-team

Wonderer would make a delightful hostess. We'll have to get him an appropriate outfit. I don't think the French maid one will work. Even tho he looks really cute in it!

Ive just set my phone to ignore anyone who isn't a contact, if they are a real person/business they can leave a message, works a treat

 

[Lilianna23]

Mmmmmm…. Good food porn can be better than good porn porn… in the right moment.

Miss K and I post a lot of baking. B2 also bakes. Some of the guys post BBQ.

Yuzu is an Asian citrus plant.

Google: Yuzu available in the PNW

Thanks! Who knew I could get it here. Doubt I would drive to Seattle for it, tho. I'll check a Whole Foods or TJs.

 

[Lilianna23]

Oh i am back up 2 lbs. I fight everyday...today i lost

Not a loss. It's your body readjusting. It's just water weight.

 

[Lilianna23]

Mrs wonder just called me an acetabulum. (Which is a leg muscle)

I didn’t know whether to laugh or to sigh.

It's actually a pelvic bone!

 

[Lilianna23]

You three are already waaaaaay more than 'something'

I see you three and OM as a modern-day Three Musketeers, including D'Artagnan!!

Girl power!

That's the way to do it!

I finally caught up after being AWOL for a couple of days! My, you lot are prolific! My OCD compelled me to finish.

Went to the gym today. Left a sweaty, limp mess! She worked me HARD today! But I did it! I'm so stoked when I try everything she wants me to do. Today I surprised both of us by requesting to do something I was initially reluctant to do!

It's after midnight now and nearing the witching hour for me. So, now I need to take myself and the pup to bed. Have a great long weekend, everyone! ️
