    I eat *censored*, in fact I had *censored* for dinner and breakfast, and will probably have *censored* for dinner and tomorrow's breakfast. While I aspire to an 80% vegetarian diet, I find I like *censored* more when I'm doing something stressful or physical. Cave man diet is kind of made for me, y'know?

    My dog begs for scraps of *censored* when I'm cooking.

    And when I'm eating... he's a beggar.

    My cats like to catch *censored* and eat them. Somehow that seems more "right" than me catching *censored* in traps. Circle of life and all that.

    (Nanci, what happened?)

    I can't go on vacation

    22 pages of TD, people! The PRESSURE!!! I couldn't absorb all of it, but here are some initial responses:

    SK - I am SO sorry about your dad. What a huge sucky bummer. That will probably get censored. Anyway, you know what I mean.

    Nanci - sorry about the zero. Everyone's butt is different. Mine just really likes that saddle - but mine is the Zero Y, so that may be different. In fact I am sure it is more narrow than the Zero X for what it's worth.

    Fish - Oh the fry!! How cute she was in her first day of school wear!!! WOnderful!

    Trek - what did I miss? Who is that wonderful baby and those beautiful hands changing the diaper??

    Kelowna - GREAT cat.

    Lise - WHAT HAPPENED with your Echo????

    Salsa - welcome back, too. Sorry about things with your mom. Sounds like it is bad parent time.

    Hi to all of you. Have to go do laundry for about 8 hours. Camping really gives you some ripe laundry...

    nanci sorry that maizey still isn't eating, but liked her new friend. good thing she didn't escape. i always fed fido live *censored* wasn't sure about feeding her frozen *censored* the only time she didn't eat is when she couldn't shead over her eye and she had to have some extra attention.

    kit come up here you'll enjoy *censored* hunting and *censored* fishing.

    my dogs get some of the *censored* fish for dinners. they like it and it makes their coats nice and shiny. they also like doing their own *censored* fishing, but right now i don't want to have them competing with the *censored* bears for the *censored* fish.

    from what i hear *censored* is really good!

    Nanci - I saw that about your BMB guy in your post on the rando list!! Amazing!

    Okay folks, what is "censored"? I have read through as much of the 22 pages that you all generated during my camping trip as I could. Just asking for a better clue here...

    Someone gave DH a bottle of "Arbor Mist" Peach Chardonnay as a joke b-day gift (They also gave him a Caymus Conundrum - yummiest white there is). Anyway, we're giving it a try. It is a lot like a wine cooler. I don't know if I can have any more of it. May be drain fodder.

    kodak moment

    i'm dogsitting my boss's two dogs and decided that all four dogs (theirs plus my two) really need to run. so i take them out for a 3 mile run but take a 'trail' (a slight indentation in the tundra with really long grass and weeds) instead of the road. it was great to run differently and the dogs loved it.

    my small one kept chacing the black lab all over. when my big one ran ahead of me on the trail with two feet of tundra on either side of her the other two jumped directly over the top of her on the tundra. if i only had a camera for that exact moment i could've made some money! it was so cute.

    we all had fun running in the rain. all of us were soaked. it was so wet that my gortex shoes.... well i was swimming in them. thats ok all 5 of us will sleep good tonight.

    Nanci -

    Hmm... what if I PM you about wine....? Just stokin' the fire....

    I also like hearing about the animals. I didn't know what "censored" referred to, though. I guess someone didn't like the gory details? I used to feed Percy my python live mice. It was kind of a bummer, but I would go in the other room some times. Sorry Maisey isn't eating. Anyway, I have to say Nanci that know more about wild and amazing animals than anyone I know - and if DD were old enough to be on TE, she'd be your best friend because she is OBSESSED with animals. She's dying for ANY type of animal. (Let it be known that she is NOT derpived, already having had rats, mice, fish, dog, cats). We pick up the gecko tomorrow.... But if she knew someone with torts, snakes, pigeons, etc., she'd never shut up talking to you about them. Those who have met her know that shutting up is often difficult for her to do....

    A few unrestrained guffaws here, but no water in my mouth for a change.

    MP!!! Where did you go camping? Was it fun?

    SK, am thinking about you and dad.

    Mom a little better today, still living on the edge. Contractor meeting went OK--we got him to agree that we would dock him part of his profit if he didn't make the next milestone date ('course, that would engender some arguing and negotiating, but still a big improvement, we hope. He does do excellent work, just not timely. So let's hope...will periodically keep you posted. Or, if you read about me in the newspapers with a Lizzie Borden kind of theme, you'll know it DIDN'T work).

    I couldn't find the earlier posted Maizey pic, but looked up corn snakes and saw a pic there. Boy, they're gorgeous.

    Shirley Jackson (remember "The Lottery"?) used to have a cat who was passionate about cantaloupe. And the Siamese cat I had as a kid used to love canned asparagus. And goofy Nina, the half-Aby cat mentioned above with the mouse-sitting thing, gets absolutely wild-eyed with ecstasy over drinking the liquid in a can of chick peas--that is really hilarious to see. They're all so funny, and so different one from the next. Endless entertainment.

    Yosemite. We pretty much go every year with DH's parents, his sister and her family. We camped at Tuolomne Meadows 4 days and then spent a few days at Wawona (with a real room - though for us, sharing a DOUBLE bed is worse than camping! ) Anyway, it was GREAT. I will post pics in a few days. I did some AMAZING hikes. After a time, no one wanted to hike with me. Don't know why. I guess it's my pace. Trying to stick to the 4 mph pace, which is a challenge on rough terrain at altitude (10,000 plus one day). Kids had rivers. Saw lots of deer, chipmunks, squirrels. No bears.

    My BIL and I did a 13 1/2 mile hike one day with the most amazing view I have ever seen. I will post a pic of that but it won't do it justice. We did it in about 4 1/2 hours, which was pretty zippy - included some sitting by a lake to contemplate my new blister.

    MWBR...,.

    maillotpois "Okay folks, what is "censored"? I have read through as much of the 22 pages that you all generated during my camping trip as I could. Just asking for a better clue here..."

    Well if TE (censored) history is our guide I'm guessing it's either G*y m*rri*ge or mice?

    Although CWR writes "from what i hear *censored* is really good!" so it could be either!

    Seriously I hope Maisey's not giving the former a ride?

    Folks I hope TE & TD can remain the friendly place it is. My policy and it's taken me to the dizzying heights of success I enjoy today is pretty much try not to PM people anything I would not say in public, unless it's stuff like my phone number or something.

    Keeps me more or less out of trouble.

    actually i wasn't referring to anything in particular. you can use your imagination for what *censored* is in that.

    i was trying to joke and lighten the mood seeing im in a GREAT mood now that i'm drying off and warm. and i don't like when everyone is upset.

    though after all that my kodak moment seems kinda insignifcant.

    and does that mean you wont give me all your personal information trek?

    Sure, but is there anything I haven't already posted on TE?
