Hehehe... cool.

<---- Thoughtful face?

<---- Or maybe this is my thoughtful face!

I think I'm going to paint some sheets. Maybe next weekend.

I do believe I have had a bonafide case of brain fog today. The high point was when I was having an interior debate about... something... "Should I or shouldn't I, should I or shouldn't I...." ...and then realized I couldn't remember what I was trying to make a decision about.

I think the last one is your thoughtful face! YOu should paint sheets. Just don't move them before they dry, or you'll end up having to do the same thing I did. Having to go under the thing and dry off the plastic! (Which is how i got paint in my hair in the first place... even though i think oil painting class did some of it...)

1 week till my big day!!!!! So far the long range forecast says no rain too!

Gad.....when will he stop? Susie, Susie....This will sound crazy, and unbelievable: That was NOT Benicio at your house today. Yes, it's true.

It was my dad.

So much explaining I've had to do over the years. Can't he see what it takes out of me?! WHEN WILL HE STOP?

Emily!!! No! Really??? are you sure? Are you QUITE sure? you mean he's that good????? Benicio and I go waaaaaaaaay back, I could swear it was he.....

....but then again.....the accent was just e'er so slightly different and....something was just a bit off.....might it have been a slight smell of yeti wee?

Holy cow, 4 a.m. here, am insomniatic, can hardly think of anything worthwhile to say and so must skee-daddle back to bed........

Susie is sleepy and rather vapid, truth be told...........................

hmmmm....do you mean for your bed? Well....I suggest thinning the acrylic w/ water a bit (if you're using tube paint such as Liquitex, thin quite a bit), or you may have quite crackly sheets. PM me if you want to know more, I have way too much useless knowledge of this type of thing....

:lol: yup, sounds like it.......

Dingy out, back to bed.

<---- I think that's the sleeping emoticon...but who can really be sure?

[blueeyedmanda]

Wake up Sillies its Saturday and its not raining!!!!!

[elye]

Ugh...it is SO raining...at least here. It's truly a poopy day. I must turn my attention inside and look at all the corners of the house that need work.

Bonafide indeed. <need puzzled look emoticon guy wearing what looks like a dirty powdered wig, but which is in fact actual fog enveloping a confused lil noggin>

Reminds me of that song "Build a Little Lighthouse in Your Head" by They Might Be Dwarves".

(Uh-oh! Now THAT reminds me . . ....anyone else watching new show "Pushing Daisies"? Pretty fun so far & by the creator of the faaaaaaanTAStic "Dead Like Me" )

heyyyyyy re-reading prior page I now realize "ersatz fascimile" seems suspiciously plucked from the Dept of Redundancy Dept!

<not that there's anything wrong w/ that>

My fav redundancy is "careening out of control".

(It's not too weird to have a Fav Redundancy, is it?)

He did- oh- he is out now- Emily's flow charts, private phone calls with Susie and rides in the ganache mobile.......

whoa! Just a cacao-pickin-minute!! I took it to be a MOE-beel, pronounced like the Alabama city I'll surely never visit. Are we really talking about cruising in a confectionary contraption?

Oh- it's not THE PNEUMONIA....just a bad virus

YAY!!

LOL @ "nekkid shampooing", table-less childhoods, tornados, Witness Protection . . .. .. .

  DingoGirl said:

Kool-Aid Man? Oh wait, I don't think he knocks - just bursts through in all his splendor.

[Evil Plot]

We weekenders can increase our chances of grabbing the royally-bejewelled ring by upping production so as to hit p300 before Monday!!

Bwaaa-haaa-haaa <rubbing hands together in that plotting for evil way>

[/Evil Plot]

SUPER WEASEL!!? ROFL!!

[elye]

Yes, I'm for upping production!! As long as there's no child labour or coal-fired machinery involved. Hmmm....this brings me back to the subject of...yours truly and...Witness Protection...Ah! Cannot elaborate--it was a world away, and life is now good.

C'mon...four more pages... (that emoticon does not quite do it...I need here a VERY excited, anxious little face. Once again, Emoticon Dept. not delivering adequate service......)HARRRRUUUMMPPPHH.

Well......Dingy is OUT of the running today......had too much wine..... Loser spent teh night and we watched movies.....I am knocked flat w/ horrible malaise today (read: hangover).....ugh.......ugh.....help me.......no pity, folks, please, no pity. (why can't we jsut have a green vomiting emoticon?)

oooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooo bye bye for now...............

[Mtndog]

Ah, Tom! We're so glad you're back... smile.gif

Gah...All the tables Bev and I have been up on, the ones I've been under...I forgot about being under that #!!*#!*@ ganache mobile. Susie's washing Scott's hair,...well, 'tis a might better than washing Mr. Simmons'. Didn't you volunteer for that one, Bev? ohmy.gif

Okay, well, Susie, you may have configured smelly flowcharts, but you must remember that I mastered visual mapping of athletic T-bagging. And I presented such while up on a table!

If those tables could talk, ahhh the stories they'd tell. Like the time I was on the table dancing up a storm with a very drunk CEO with dangling participles, Emily was under it trying to teach a lumberjack NOT to dangle his participle and Susie and Benicio were doing the teabag tango. What a party that was!

I think that I remember seeing Patti, Amanda and Sarah as well as Jess and Tom there as well. Actually- was that the night of the celiac.com Funniest Members Awards?

I believe Richard was the master of ceremonies but somehow was ambushed by a teabagging yeti. And Chuck! Patti danced with Chuck ALL night (boy was her husband mad but Chuck uhmmm..took care of him.

Amanda and Danny were being rolled around the dance floor in a portable hot tub. Jess DID brush her teeth for the event and Sarah- her red painted sheet dress was the HIT of the party. SEX-EEEEEEEEEE.

Tom- oh, Tom....realized he was (click on this) Open Original Shared Link as he previously imagined

(Ptaum- I love They Might Be giants Too!!!!!!!!)

Best Short Joke

A 3-year-old boy examined his testicles while taking a bath.

Mom", he asked, "Are these my brains?"

"Not yet ," she replied.

  elye said:

We can DO it!!!

(even sans Susie, if need be)

But Pseu-zee .. . .. .. .can you really take yourself out of a possible ascension to the throne?

methinks there just may be a secondary evil plan afoot .. .. .. . . .as one could swoop in at the latter stages of p299 .. . . .. . .hmmmmm

  elye said:

C'mon...four more pages...

OHHHHHHHH!!! Down to 3!!

Uh-oh I have more packing to do me-se'f .. .. .grrrrrrr

[elye]

Yes, Bev...you and that Dangling CEO. Mygawd, I blush while remembering. I have since that party learned that one cannot keep lumberjacks from participle-dangling. An unteachable group, those wankers.

They Might be Giants....SO much well-written fun. Moxy Fruvous are as good, as clever, and every bit as toe-tapping. Home-grown boys you must check out if you've never heard their stuff. The King of Spain, in particular.

Speaking of kings...and QUEENS...the final pages are riffling by (this may be a verb I've made up).

Ahhh yes, I remember that night as well . . . that was the night that I tried to call each and everyone of you and everyone had some sort of excuse as to why they were "unavailable"!!!

Let's see if I can remember those excuses . . .

Bev said she had to stay in to polish her crown and practice her lines for an upcoming coronation.

Susie said she had some sort of TV appearance in Alabama to demonstrate how to climb a razor-wired fence naked at night. (Now, I wondered why someone might do this naked, but hey, she's the expert.)

Emily said she was askeert that a tornado was coming and she had a flow chart due.

Amanda pulled that same ol' "gotta get ready for my wedding" routine.

Richard said that I wasn't allowed to be around his children anymore (Jeez, all I did was bring them a couple of yoohoos) and anyway, he had to paint his parents' house. (How many times have we heard that one, now?)

Tom said he had to tune his instrument. (I didn't ask any more questions there, I just let than one go . . . too much information!)

Sarah said she was knee-deep in sheets. (At the time, I thought she said sh!t and was cleaning up doggy-doo but now I know different).

Nikki said "Why the hell are you calling me at 3 in the morning?!?"

Light said she had to stay home and do laundry.

Patti said she was going over to Light's house to see if she could do her laundry.

Carla said she had to sit and stare longingly at her new Aga.

Jess said she had to go underwear shopping.

So to all of you who blew me off and went to some big fabulous party . . . I say

HAARRRRUUUMPH!!!

They keep changing. All seem to be afraid of yeti fur and marshmallow shooters. bob Goulet is temporarily out of the running.

I say we just make it The Hoff, he's always drunk anyway.

Anyone?

Bev's gettin' almost 'Rapper-Raunchy'!

And I bet I'm the only one whose 1st visual of Benecio is from the critically-acclaimed but financially underperforming movie The Pledge. He ain't too pretty in it.

But the movie is great - Jack Nicholson stars and many other big stars took small parts for this project directed by Sean Penn. Nominated, I believe, for major awards.

A tad disturbing at times, but just SO well done. (I think far too many movies are crapslapped together)

OH, DON'T GIVE ME THAT!!!! I know perfectly well what I was doing that night. I FOUND someone who wanted to spend some time with me that night. It was Emily's DAD . . . of course, I didn't realize that until later. I thought I was out with John Krasinski but WTH . . . I HAD A DATE!!

[tom]

I'm afraid it's confession time. I'm not in Phx & moving to SJ and tom's not my real name.

I'm in Cedar Rapids and my name's Craig S. McCullough.

I'll be offline awhile, I'm sorry to say. Google "Craig S. McCullough" (in quotes) for details.

Wait a minute, wait a minute...my dad was at our party with us, portraying the Dalai Lama. Unless...now, wait, I'm confused...maybe that really WAS the Dalai . Oh, Gawd...I kept calling him a crazy old fart. Ah, so that pained expression wasn't just some really convincing emoting on Dad's part. Naaaah, it had to have been my dad. Old Tibetian monks cannot dance like that...and drink! Whew!

Agh!! Same for Applejacks and their flavor-dissolving into the milk! (Or so I recall, from decades gone by)

Again!! Same for those garish applejacks - black sheep of the extended Cheerio family w/ their more-flavorful-than-thou attitudes!!
