Poor Emmett. I remember those days well...
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Tired now. Dad's 70th Birthday Party = good time had by all. The laundry is all done and my houseguests are all driving east thru Nevada even as I type. I can hardly believe I stood up in front of the guests and sang a song accompanied by a toy piano (the song was in the key of H, but sounded like L. Ba-dum-dum!)
One of many amusing moments: watching my cat Mishka following cousin John's terrier Scruffy around the house. Poor Scruffy was a little scared of him. Mishka may be the bravest cat in the world: he fears neither twins nor terriers, just the vacuum cleaner.
Also I learned how to spit fire using Everclear and a flaming torch made of rolled-up newspaper, and that Diet Coke works better for the Mentos Fountain.
Beth, that's awful. I'm so sorry for Matt and his friend's family.
Daisy Jane, I'm not sure they would all fit in my apartment. Plus, the neighbors might complain.
Oh, since I've been catching up:
{{{beth & matt}}}, plus -ma of any kind anyone needs.
Birthday happies to meara and JenK.
Now back to work.

Now that's the kind of 70th birthday party I want to have!
Sounds good Raq. We have what, 40 years or so to plan it?
Happy Meara and Jen Day!
Wow, Meara and Jen share a birthday...happy birthday both of you. Very relieved to still have the internets...it stopped working for a few minutes earlier and I'm still feeling delicate about it.
The high-flying ingredients in our kit include Scharffen Berger 41% milk chocolate bats; premium bat-shaped graham crackers made with whole-grain graham flour, molasses and organic honey; and plump handmade marshmallows. It all comes packaged in a box tied with orange and black paper ribbons
eeeeeeeeee! Oh oh oh, I need that. You have NO IDEA how much I need that. I have no idea why Williams-Sonoma decided to market items directly to me, but I'm not complaining.
Woo Hoo! The local ABC station is showing General Hospital. In between weather updates. Also, the roofers just finished my repair. The supervisor guy has to be 80ish. I don't think I had seen him in about 20 years, since when late DH was still alive. He was an old man then. He took both my hands and told me it was good to see me again. So sweet. It was good to see him too.
I've been waiting a year for the repair. It took the guys about 20 minutes. Bad thing about being family is being far down the list. Good thing about being family is that it does get done in time.
