    Gee, is it just me or should the upside be that the guy is hot? BMo3, do you think you could get him to take off his shirt for a few TE pics? C'mon ladies, pony up some loot and help pay for this door so we can get the pics.

    Oh I know so much more than that, snap. It's in the new biography I'm writing called "Kitsune: The Young and Crazy Years." Knowing her zest for life, I won't be able to finish it until she dies at the tender age of 104 in a mosh pit mishap. (which is exactly ** years from now)

    Kit - Glad you had a nice ride to work today and that you're safe. Watch the language tho, you're a biking embassador now. Sign language however is a beautiful and expressive alternative. Wha? I'm just sayin'...

    (oh yeah, it should be in the mail soon. thanks Kit.)

    (((CWR))) You know I'm a hugger so quit looking at me like that. I'll hug ya if I wanna, so there!

    'night TD!

    Oh, hey, CWR this one's for you...

    Lise - I'm so happy for you and J. It sounds an awful lot like the start of my relationship with my sweetie two years ago. I think it's something to do with age and knowing what's important. We are still gloriously happy after two years and I expect we will be for years to come. I have a good feeling about you and J too. Yay!

    Take a deep breath and give the whole work/Italy thing a day or two. Something will work out. Like you said, it's four months away. The schedule chick just doesn't "get" it - so much can happen between now and then. I don't blame you for being mad but it'll work out. It has to.

    CWR - glad to see you around. Hope things are tolerable. Chocolate is good. Eating something healthy too. ((((CWR)))

    Dar - sounds a bit frustrating. I agree about spending the money on more important things. When is your TG anyway? This week? On a Thursday usually isn't it? At any rate, I think it's so good of you to do the good deed. I've thought about doing it but that's as far as I've gone.

    Knot - how'd the beef turn out? When in doubt cook it a long time.

    X - you kill me. I just love reading your posts... So much energy!


    Well, I am finished my report cards! Yay! Well I think they're done. Gotta see what the powers that be think. I'm sure there will be a coupla typos to fix up. Anyway, I am happy.

    Now I'm off to try some "self-myofascial release" on my "iliotibial band". Geez the stuff you can learn about on the internet. I'm sure you guys will find a way to make that sound sexual.

    I will take the garage door guy. If nothing else, I do need a new garage door.

    Have you ever eaten one of those hot dogs off the rollers at the Seven-Eleven?

    I can't bring myself to do that but I have had some decent pizza from there.

    I much prefer buffalo to beef. I'm lucky in that we have a store nearby that almost always has buffalo.

    My daughter only buys buffalo because it's cheaper. I should try it sometime.

    Send me some, kelownagirl! It is just the opposite here - much more expensive than beef. I love buffalo (sorry CC - please don't throw any kangaroo jerky at me!). There are plenty of places to buy it, but it's very expensive.

    sorry CC, I have to ask her

    KG - where are you getting your buffalo meat that it's cheaper than beef? I haven't seen that yet....!

    BMo3 - I love the idea of your cacti garden! Can I see pictures? You can email if you'd rather I actually started some plants indoors this year - dahlias. I think they're ready to plant outside now. I can't believe they aren't dead yet! I have the most obnoxiously purple thumb! heh

    zen - I have to agree with BikingMom - does anything on those rollers at 7 11 actually deserve the name food?

    Well, folks, another day after the RMT appointment to spend at work. I'm reminding me to move slowly right away - not to wait until it hurts!

    Have a super Wednesday everybody

    Hugs and butterflies,
    ~T~

    I will send pictures after the are repotted and looking pretty. I am very excited about beginning a cacti garden! I think it will be placed on my dining room table. I had wanted to have them in my bay window for the time being, but that meant moving the cat's Kitty Pi bedding and she rebelled vocally all day yesterday until I restored her sacred space.

    Well I have begun a cacti garden indoors. So far I have 5 plants and I just may need to pick up a few more today. They are so cute and seem like a growing plant that will be difficult even for me to kill. Tonight I shall be repotting them.

    It is unbelieveably hot and humid here, more like summer than spring. So I am staying indoors as much as I can. I do however have a lovely suntan. and I am finally at the weight I wanted to be, yay me. Now I need to learn how not to lose or gain more, but maintain. It is always something. I am in desperate need of smaller clothing, but the only thing I will spring for is a new speedo. My old one is flashing my neighbours and even they are noticing and commenting-side note, they are a lovely gay couple in their late 40s-they crack me up with their comments.

    It is good to see so many people posting and bringing life back to TD.
