I don't fancy spending the next month trying to get librarian out of the carpet.

Ours is paid by the bank holding the mortgage, so by the time we see the bill it has already been paid. Still big.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

It's cold in my cubicle, so I turned on my space heater for the first time this season.

Nothing like the smell of 6 months of dust burning off a space heater....

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

At my cousin's outdoor wedding, a guest parked within view of the seating area, got out of the car, beer in hand, wearing cut-offs and a wife beater. He did go to his trunk and put on a button up shirt but didn't bother to button any of the buttons. Oh, and he grabbed his personal cooler of beer to bring with him.

At that was only one of the guests on the bride's side of the ceremony. It was pretty easy to figure out who was related to the bride. Luckily she seems to have overcome her background and so far she and my cuz are happily married.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

Also visited by the insomnia fairy last night.

Well there was the wedding where the DJ caught the garter and grandma caught the bouquet. when the DJ tried to get the garter above grandma's knee - grandma pulled out the stiletto.

and then there was the wedding where the sister of the bride were sure MOB was drunk, not an unusual occurrence. Luckily the sister of the groom, who was training to be a nurse, recognized that the MOB was having a heart attack.

or the weding where the priest was talking about how marriages were for having children and you could here the horrified 'no" that went through the congregation at the though of this couple having children

or the wedding where the priest scolded the couple for living together and followed it by the infamous speech " Adam tried all the animals but none of them were for him"

any guesses why we eloped? Of course it was vegas and our driver did tell us how to tell the good prostitutes from the bad on the way to our wedding

Ann, that's a ferret.

msbelle, does it help to know that you can claim your property taxes as a deduction on your Federal income taxes?

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Today's lesson: "bending the curve" is the new "moving the needle."

I have no idea what either of those are supposed to mean.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I have told this story here, but a friend's dad showed up drunk at her wedding with a woman he'd picked up the night before (who was also drunk) and whose name he didn't know.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Making a difference in the field, more or less.
