Merry Minuet...
Eh?
My Monkey Face looks more like a mandrill’s backside today...I slipped on the sidewalk Thirsday afternoon, and dislocated my left shoulder and got a gash in my forehead, over my left eye.
*sheesh*
But I’m good to go!
It does sound like you are ready to go, but Halloween isn't until a week from Wednesday...
Oooooooo, I'm really gonna regret mashing 'post'.
Tagline: Kingston Trio.
The face won’t last till Wednesday. The ugliness should begin subsiding by Monday. I hope.
Yup, same song, they sung it.
Lucky you. I’d end up back where I started.
LOL! I have no clue where I’m supposed to go to have the stitches out. Maybe I should read the instructions, eh?
I can use present tense and past tense, of the most basic regular verbs, and other than that I giggle and gesture a lot. In the context of our Spanish church congregation, it really is the thought that counts!
I’m supposed to give a speech about “stewardship” in a couple of weeks, so I’ll have time to look up some of the vocabulary I don’t know ... but I’m sure I’ll still say something totally foolish. Oh, well, it’s good to make people laugh.
And speaking of laughs, Frank “fell,” which I figure means jumped, in the pond at church during the festival. Near as I can figure, he wanted a goldfish, and James told him it was okay to try to catch one. The man who brought him to me after fishing him out looked a little disapproving, but all’s well that ends well.
My parents loved them. I know all their songs from listening to the records over and over when I was a girl.
My tagline is from life!
You will never be bored lol!
Usually, people enjoy someone’s attempts at learning their language. In high school, I heard the the French make fun of you, so I decided not to learn French. Then, I met a very nice French waiter while in DC, and a very nice French physician when I was in Phoenix. Started working on my accent as a measure of penitence for mean-spiritedness.
Bill is studying French this semester. His exposure to Spanish makes the grammar pretty easy for him. I haven’t yet heard him attempt to pronounce it, thought!
I think that maybe they’re not as preoccupied w/you as you might think. As a wise FReeper advised me, “I agree with these people 98% of the time. Why hassle about the other 2%?” Additionally, life and death are the only situations that get a rise out of me. Everything else can be addressed one way or another. (In the past, had a penchant for getting kicked out of places, but it was usually related to uncontrollable giggling.)
Ohno! Prayers up for speedy healing.
This year I’m considering Halloween decorations that include manikins nailed to trees, impaled, etc. and labeled with signs that say things like “Looter”, “Rioter”...
No particular need to take them down before the elections, I suppose.
Next time have ‘em chain stitch it.
When it’s all healed up you can just pull the loose end...
I have a “Best Of...” album, and it brings back good memories!
My tagline is from life, too....Something I heard 30 years ago, and decided it was versatile enough to keep for myself ;o])
I got a CARE package from someone yesterday containing four NEW tops, and 18 DVD’s! Happy dance! Happy dance! I think, now that I have taken some pain killers, I will help myself to bed and watch some movies!
Heheheheheheh!
Why didn’t I think of that? LOL!
I am a fast healer, but I thank you for the prayers!
I’m good. Or as someone said in a commercial once-upon-a-time: I’m a tough ol’ bird!
My Spanish was never very good, though for a non-native-speaker, I managed to pull a B+ out of the class. As with a lot of people, I understand more than I can speak, but I don’t know if I need to know much more than I do.
“Foolish” can often be very fun!
