Happy day, Franny! I hope it's cakeful.
No, no, no, sir. No more chick pit for you. Come on.

Happy Birthday Franny!
Bill is all bluster, no bite. Which is not exactly a bad thing.
I am making a key lime pie to keep myself amused. Everything seems to be coming out wrong.

That's so disturbing on so many levels, Sparky.
That's just so.... I mean? I can't even imagine. Totally totally totally YUCK.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Our beaches have been closed all weekend because of Bill. So glad I didn't have long-standing beach plans!
I just threw out most of my tapes. When was the last time I listened to a tape? I have no idea. And a friend of mine was recently telling me about a flood in her storage unit, and the only cardboard box that actually got wet was full of video tapes, and all I could think was, Why did you move a box full of video tapes?? So I'm trying to avoid that.

I have two boxes of VHS tapes (almost all containing Buffy/Angel) that I am contemplating chucking.

I chucked mine when I moved; also chucked the vcr at that point.
I'm kinda sore from my walk yesterday.

Because books.
I still use the occasional video tape because we don't have a DVR, but only to tape something to watch maybe once or twice afterward, knowing I'll have it on DVD eventually.
I still have cassette tapes, and most of them have degraded so badly by now I *should* throw them out. I used to listen to them in the old car, which still had a tape deck, but that's gone, so.
Hoarders both fascinate me and freak me out. And someone on the level Sparky's talking about -- wow. There's a serious need for medical intervention there.

I don't have a VCR, and I do still have some tapes, so I guess those should be next.

I still do use by VHS for some yoga and pilates tapes, (not as often as i should), but it's down in the basement with all the other discards...and my computer.

I have some old Prairie Home Companions from the '80s that aren't available that I'd like to copy. I'm hoping that since the tapes have been stored here in dry Utah that they've survived.
