Today's rant: I haven't recovered yet. Blech. Not as bad, but not well yet. When I was younger, I'd get sick for a day or two then I'd be fine. Here I am, sick for a week, and spending another week getting better. It sucks. I'm working again, but everything feels like a momentous effort. It's beautiful outside, but I'm so sensitive to the sunlight, I feel like a vampire. "It buuuurrrrrnnnnnssss!"

Blech. And blech again. I think my brain's been replaced by a giant ball of snot. Y'all should invest in Procter & Gamble stock - I'm going through a big box of Puff's tissues every two days or so. Now ain't that sexy. Dave might want to bring over a riot shield in case I start sneezing again.

/rant off

You have sun there?! Sun!? Holy crap I've not seen the sun in days and it is hovering in the 40's as well. So heck yea we'll try again, the chance of snot for some sun would an ok trade. I'll start driving today, should be there by late tomorrow - meet me at the border?

As a kid (mid teens) my hygienist was cute, and an older woman too (at least older to a 15 year old). On the dentist days my mom always made us brush our teeth right before we went, when all I really wanted to do was eat a box of oreos to make it last longer. However, I don't think I'd ever be so bold as to try something, especially unexpectedly, with someone who had multiple sharp objects in my mouth at the time.

Well, no sun today (I sent it to Chicago for Deb) but it should be back by the time you get here.

Now I have a weatherman's voice in my head: "Mostly sunny with a 40% chance of snot..."

Bluddy bluddy!

I hate mices to pieces!

My new USB mouse stopped working on my laptop! I usually change the battery etc etc reconnect and it fixes it. nuh bugga the lights come on and the laptop bleeps everytime I put it in and out, but no worky.

Not to worry said I. i will use the old one. Yippee! works....

For one bluddy day! now neither of them will work!

Try uninstalling and reinstall I hear voices say. Yair good idea but not work! Especially when the new one doesn't even show up in the device manager.

I've never seen a wireless mouse I like. Get one with a tail, they work.

SneakySnake · 04-20-2011, 07:52 PM

It's windows, you have to ALWAYS reboot before trying anything else.

SneakySnake · 04-20-2011, 08:04 PM

bluddy windows.

It is also a crappy laptop. Somehow I was convinced to update my toshiba with this acer! The battery is stuffed on the Toshiba, but i stil reckon it works better than this on. crappy keyboard!

wait wait. life is good! I am now going to focus on what is going right.

I am going to have pancakes for breaky (lumps in the batter but I don't care)

happy happy happy!

kennyc · 04-20-2011, 09:44 PM

Pancakes are good.

wyndslash · 04-20-2011, 10:20 PM

ew pancakes

Mortis · 04-20-2011, 10:25 PM

SneakySnake, can you make mine in the shape of turtles, bunnies, alligators, frogs and kitties please and don't forget the chocolate drizzle for eyes

SneakySnake · 04-20-2011, 10:29 PM

hahaha! They weren't as good as I had hoped. They are really just a vehicle for Golden Syrup anyway. Bloke never eats them.

I didn't think about the chocolate drizzle though.

DixieGal · 04-20-2011, 10:34 PM

D@mned diet! I love to make pancakes, but it is not on the stupid diet. (-20 lbs since Nrw Years and resolution started!

) I mix in sliced bananas, and they cook up nice and gooey And sweet in the cakes.

Mortis · 04-20-2011, 10:34 PM

Sneaky, stick with me kid and I'll have you eating chocolate with every meal, not to mention snacks

Golden Syrup, just to be sure its not one of those "Jelly - jam" things, whats Golden Syrup? In Canada there's Roger's Golden Syrup

Spoiler:

This is a very thick sticky sugary mess in a can! We ate it on soda biscuits (scones to most other people)

DixieGal · 04-20-2011, 10:39 PM

We have Yellow Lable syrup. It is honey and corn syrup and angel squeezings and sunshine. You put it on the plate and mix in softened butter with a fork until it is lumpy. Then dip forkfuls of hot banana pancakes.

kennyc · 04-20-2011, 10:41 PM

There is no syrup but Aunt Jemimas!
