Good grief! I just went to the store. Didn't realize I was gonna have to carry the groceries up to the new place. Wouldn't have bought so much.
Hope there's room in the freezer. I spent the mortgage check at Sam's Club.
I didn't really birthday shop yet. This morning was a selfish self kinda trip. ;-) I got some good dark chocolate (the only kind I's supposed to have, and only once in awhile), some almonds, some steelcut oats, and some more mate tea stuff. The chocolate is the baking kind - a bulk bag of random chunks, but very good quality Belgian chocolate. I'm going to melt some and mix in a few almonds for dessert one of these days.
This afternoon we're probably going to Wal-Mart and such like in search of bother gifts. I have no clue what to get him, so we'll see!
Oh, and I just finished rereading PoA. It was interesting reading it with a more complete perspective of what different things meant. There were details I didn't catch the first time.
I'm feeling a bit softhearted toward Sirius agin. I mean...after all, he DID lose his best friends, had all his other friends think HE did it, and spent 12 years in prison for their murder. That's rough. Very rough. No wonder he's a bit grouchy at times...
Get any red meat off the bone?
Aye, that I did.
I put this off for far too long. Going out to work in the mud...I'm going now...
New thread self-ping! Ecurbh, please add me to the Ring Ping list.
A bit softhearted? Well, that's a start, anyway. And he does 'grouchy' very well. Sulky, maybe, is more like it. And there's always new things you notice on a reread. Like in the first book, nobody cared where the motorcycle Hagrid was riding came from until PoA came out.... Rowling is vey good at dropping hints. One's almost tempted to assume that any name she mentions will appear at some point as a character...
Sounds like a nice trip! I finished the mulch errand - at least I don't have to spread it! - and am almost ready to start calling apartments.
Hopefully, none of these will turn naughty!
Heh.... we've never put you on the ping list? Sorry Fedora!
That s'more plate looks naughty!
Did we take any pictures of you sitting there roasting marshmallows on the couch with a lighter? That was a pretty pathetic display!
Whoa, you're not on the ring-ping list? Ooops, that shall be rectified!
Sorry.... we were saving down the thread planning to print the wedding-related stuff... and we thought we ought to stop the thread before we started talkin' new business to o much!... ;~D
I was hoping this one could remain a ~family~ thread.
You know, that s'more plate kinda looks like a rocket engine.
Yeah, it does. But I bet it works better than a cigarette lighter! LOL!
That was just so funny.... you on the couch with this flamin' marshmallow over a plate.... ecurbh goin' "Ruthy! - Don't start the house on fire, we'll get the barbecue going outside! Alright already!" :~D
Someone left the light on and the side door open.
Sometimes, I am completely oblivious to my surroundings. Sheesh!
Good thing I have friends like you that save me from setting myself and others on fire! We could have had Scott do the headline....
