Salutations Threadies

It started out 39 degrees for my drive to work. The rain has left and its going to be nice today. I have gotten over my stolen lasagna ordeal from yesterday. Watched those stupid Love for Ray J, Brett Michaels Rock of Love shows last night. Now they have one called I love NY Goes to Work.

As much as I hate to admit this, but I do watch those shows. I am constantly amazed at the characters that participate on them.

Went to visit Rha and Amaranthim's stores last night. Very nice guys. I see LL did not filter out one of my favorite (if I need to cuss you out) cuss words, motherfucker. Now I can breathe easier.

There was a girl who did that EVERY DAY. We packed a sandwich full of red hot peppers and left it for her. That was the end of it.

We talked about making a hero sandwich full of dog turds but no one could do it.

.

I did NOT vote for any of those assholes.

QFT -- and the ones that should be your governing body are too damn smart to allow themselves to be put there.

ummmm -- is that coffee safe to drink?

Coming from LL it probably wouldn't be the head.

Husband and kids both learned very quickly that absolutely nobody wants to deal with me before coffee. My husband even brings a cup up to set on the bathroom counter just before I get out of the shower in the morning. Days when I have to do blood work, I sleep until just before they open, get up, toss clothes on, fill the car cup, and take it in to immediately gulp as soon as they draw the blood.

While I might do some of my best work in the morning, hence my really early work hours, I am not at all social before lots of coffee.

If you participated in the "democratic process" at all you have to acknowledge responsibility.

Corn Pops and soft boiled eggs. YUM!

not getting the coffee pot house. a business i get, a house? wierd.

i better not show this to my husband. he might pull out his bow and take a shot!

sorry about the lasagna. i also watch those shows, and all the wacky spinoffs that come from them. i enjoy them because they live out stereotypes and that makes me laugh out loud, but also because i always come away feeling so normal and sane. most of those people are fruit loops!

Remember folks, Hitler was elected in a full, free, Democratic election.

*George said that, too.

/me whips off her skirt and waves it in salute

Good morning threadies.

It isn't just a question of not voting. As I specifically said, you have to take responsibility 'If you participated in the "democratic process" at all'.

Pep (Shooting politicians does not count as participation)

Sure it does.

Brenda (Shooting yourself would be considered not participating)

You'd have to take responsibility for *not* shooting all the rest of them then!

Pep (Nice to see you've joined the Parenthetical Posse!)

I am going to tell you about something so horrible that my husband did to me, that you will gasp in disgust and amazement that anybody could be that cold. He is not a coffee drinker, he'll drink it if it's there but really doesn't care if he doesn't get it. I CARE. DEEPLY. It's a NEED, and I am picky about it. A few weeks ago, he told me he'd make the coffee; I was getting ready for work and said ok, that's nice, thanks. He brought me a steaming cup and I thought hmmmm, noticed right off, smelled 'off'. Was getting a cold, so thought it was me.....started drinking it. NO, something is OFF, I can tell immediately, what is it, what's wrong with this coffee? I started questioning him and he fessed up. He is 'green', recycles everything carefully. Decided to try using used coffee grounds another time. Poured fresh water over old, yesterday's grounds.....OMG. Is that disgusting or what? I told him, look, this is very simple. I work every day. I WILL have my coffee, fresh. I am not recycling it. If I cannot have fresh coffee whenever the desire hits me, then I will quit my job and stay home, there is no need for me to work if I have to start recycling coffee. Was VERY gross. Other coffee lovers will understand......Sympathy? lol (He's my 2nd husband, at this rate will be my 2nd *ex* husband)

Hi Sable- thanks for dropping in- if you went to my main store, I apologize for the look- I am starting to remodel and it's a bit of a mess. And I hope you didn't need to cuss me out- I didn't quite understand that part of your post.

I hear someone here knows a guy named Vinnie...

I used to do that when my wife was too lazy to throw out the old grounds.

Pep (She changed her habits remarkably quickly; which suggests you *can* teach an old dog new tricks!)

OMG - that is sooooooo wrong and soooooo mean.

See the thing is here, I have NO problem making my own coffee. Since I am the one that coffee is important to, I expect to make it. That's ok. NO PROBLEM. But if YOU pop up out of the woodwork, offering to make it, and passing it off as 'a nice thing to do' then make it right. Otherwise, leave it the hell alone, as nobody asked you to touch it in the first place.......I've been making my own coffee for a long, long time, before he came along and will probably still be making it after he's gone. I don't need any 'help' or to be taught any new tricks, either. Don't want to make it right? Stay away from it. No negotiation.

THIS is the funny part. LOL

husband's can be so - unthinking - sometimes. but i do admire his want to conserve. he just needs to be a bit more practical about it. i'm sure the repulsion part of the scenerio wasn't intentional (well, i hope not anyway)

Reused coffee grounds? Is he trying to kill you??
