Another cup of coffee, and I may be ready for Sunday. The wife and I just got back from the lagoon and the air was crisp and exhilarating, we have storks and you have to see them to believe how big they are, WOW. Oh yeah got to make popcorn for the games today and beat those Giants, Chicago Bears!! I love Sunday. If anyone sees Saturday let me know.

Hey there are married couples that actually get out?

Talaniman, I live vicariously through that post. :)

DaBEARS!! Wings, tato skins, and chili are on the menu for the game today!!

Hope I get my oxygenation outline done by then!

I... am so hungry now. Chicago is hardcore for its home teams.

Drop the remote, step back ,waaaay back pass the popcorn, did someone say CHILI? WINGS as in buffalo and BBQ? Taters? Oh lord, I'm oxyginating.

Come on over T, plenty for you, the wife, and grandkids. It's all homemade, like my buffalo jerky, yes I have some of that too.

Just bring the Kool Aid!!

The grandkids are with their parents so me and the wife can do anything we please and wear anything we please be as loud as we please whenever we please. Life and kool-aid is so good. I'll bring plenty in all flavors.

Kool Aid is awesome.

Come on over for the game Sentra, plenty of room, food and KOOL AID!!

You guys really know how to throw a football game party...

How 'bout those Cowboys Go ROMO Go! woo! Woo!

Yeah I'm a vikings fan... and we lost to green bay so if you need me Ill be in the corner trying to figure out what just happened

How about those Bears whuppin' the nasty Giants!! Life and coffee is good in my house. Prances around with a cofee cup and a piece of cake.

Oh No! My daughter just called and she is bringing my two year old spoiled granddaughter over this morning... She is so bossy, Yikes the balance of power in my house will shift to the females. YIKES!

GOOD MORNING everyone:). Hope everyone had a good weekend, Happy Veteran's Day to all, especially those who this day is for. And J_9, thanks for the invite hehe:).

Tal, have some of that Oomph ready to deal with the terrible two's:)

I'd rather hide in the closet, if you don't mind.

No no no, please don't take my hiding place!! :p

I was wondering who stepped on my foot.

Rofl:) Woops!

She's here and she is sooooo cute. Got to go and let her jump on grampa's belly-welly.

Definition of sad: When someone bakes brownies, and you later find out they are for someone else... :(

Who... :( Brownies are awesome, if I had the means to open my own café I'd serve all kinds.

Meh. I haven't had a good piece of chocolate in such a long time. I don't ask for much, just a Hershey bar!

Lol... I really don't like sweets, chocolate, caramel, any candy etc. and I don't hate ice cream... I just prefer other things, However I do like cake,cookies and brownies, however I never eat them because they are bad for you... which makes me sad

Personally I like STEAK!!

Steak and salad, can I have some more steak please!!

BEEF! Exactly, however I love chicken more than BEEF, but you have to have something meaty, I will take something meaty than something sweet anyday of the year...

Where's the beef!

I am making steak sometime this week. With potato salad, corn on the cob and maybe some cake. But for now, I am going to get something to drink. It's almost 6am here and I've been up almost an hour already. Slept in. :)

WOW here its 13.02 pm, having my ham, cheese and beans toastie.. scrummy :)

FOOD, is yummy! Lol, the sun isn't even out yet. But if I want to wait outside barefooted in the frost covered grass, the sun comes up RIGHT across the horizon, excellent view from here. I should go grocery shopping right now, before the payday crowd hits. Hmm. Nah, still in pajamas.:)

Thunderstorm warnings here, tornado watches there. I wish they would cancel school today!!

Here too, rain smells good so I can't complain too much. And me too, I say if anyone can get out of being on the road today they should!

I wish it would rain...
Need some rain... its been too long. Ok had a storm about 1 week ago but that's it.. :(

50 degrees cloudy and very windy this morning, just got my first cup so bear with me but did I hear STEAK? My favorite. Do we need a grill?

STEAK STEAK STEAK STEAK
:D
With cream and pepper sauce, and chips with lots of salt

OK you guys are killing me here!! I am sitting at my desk WISHING for something to eat! I brought Pop Tarts in the car--my son ate those while I was taking him to school. I am hungry--I guess I will have to go raid the vending machine - yummy. I bet it is all calorie free too.

I am wearing a shirt today that I have had two comments on--both of them from men. What is it with some people that feel they can make fun of your clothes!! I thought I was out of high school... :rolleyes: Maybe not. I had one person say it looked like I was back in the 70's and another said I looked like I was in prison. I commented that I was at work so I am in prison. Hee hee

FYI - my shirt is orange, white, yellow, blue and black stripped. It is probably a little more "colorful" than what I usually wear - but it was given to me. Free clothes are always good clothes when you have a 9 year old GROWING son that uses all of your extra cash to keep him clothed, fed, in sports, glasses, braces, need I go on...

Hey all...

Girls... is it just me or is admin... Cute? Hee Hee

Feeling "honary" today!

Is it Friday yet..

Love is in the air ;)

He is a cuteeeeee patooteee. He is single?? Ooooooooolala

No it is HUMP DAY.

What a smile!!

Hump day for sure :p

He is married and has a bunch of kids.

Hey... he is still nice to look at!!

Anyway... I'll take my steak medium well.

Garlic bread too... I'll start on that!

Feeling "honary" today!


I'm sorry, did you mean "honorary", "horny" or "ornery"? There are some inportant differences of meaning, I think. ;-)

I raise beef cattle for a living, so I really like the latest twist of this thread. Eat up, folks! Enjoy!

Lol... I meant like in mischievous.

Bring on the BEEF!!

Oh... can I have a beer too? Bud Select... please?

Yes i said steak! Rofl!

Who has steak, did I hear steak?

Oh, yeah I did. LOL

What is all this horny talk?

Mmmmm steak as long as it isn't Mooing, wipe its bum and throw it on a plate :D:D

I hope it's not a beach one tho' as I'm seriously allergic to wood ;)

Just a little pink for me.

Ben would you be kind enough to suggest a good wine to go with our Moo?

Something big, heavy and seriously alcoholic.
My faves would an Ozzie Shiraz, Ridge Zinfandel or a good Crozes Hermitage from Rhone

OHHHHHHHHHHH, I LURVVVV Ridge Zinfandel!!

Top it off with a few shots of tequila, don't forget the WORM!!

I love wine but... it has to be sweet or semi-sweet. I can't do the dry wine. We have a vineyard around here called "James Arthur Vineyard". Best wine I have ever had. I seen on t.v. the other day about a bus tour going around visiting vineyards in Nebraska. I can't believe Nebraska would have that many vineyards. I would love to go on one but afraid I'd drink too much and get a headache.

LOL that's Mezcal (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mezcal), a different beast altogether ;)
It's made from the Agave (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agave) plant a type of lilly.
The worm is included to indicate that it is made from Agave and not the more common, over refined Tequila. ;)

ME LIKES AGAVE!!

Well, I used to, but could use a few shots today!!

what is all this horny talk?

I simply made the comment that I thought "admin" was cute and that I felt honary today. I mis-spelled "honary" and "ordinary guy" set me straight.

Did someone say "TEQUILA" I'll have a

MARGARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRITA



On the rocks pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease!!

With a steak that is medium!

Something horny would be good also---:D

I want my tequila straight up, no lemon, no lime, no salt, just a BIG shot!! Then another, and another. Then some steak.

Horny is pretty good too!!

Well, I think that comes after the tequila.

Straight up.. That a girl! I love shots of Tequilla but I need the lime and salt. Body shots of Tequilla are fun too!!

Man I need a drink!!

"Tequilla make her clothes come off"

Shots sound good too, although I need a lime and salt. Helps it go down easier!

But makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.

Oh, but the mood I am in the lime, lemon, and salt just get in the way!!

Who took my clothes!!

Hee Hee... they must have just fallen off!! Maybe there is something in the air... BIM... did yours come off yet?

Oh, I found these!!

Sheesh, I hope they are mine!

Who knows----please tell!!

I'm boring -- mine are still on plus I have to go to Wally World (Walmart) after work.

Woo hoo!

Oooh eee ooo ah ah ting tang walla walla bing bang

Oooh eee oooh ah ah ting tang walla walla bing bang

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH J_9! Do you have an extra outfit for me! I like, I like!

Not much too them--I might get cold and a lot of stares at Wally World.

Oh, check this one out!!

Over and Out for now-- gots ta go.

Farewell for now...

Dang girl... are you at "Dr. John's".. Hee Hee

Or maybe you are married to "Dr. John"...

Hold on got to change again. I liked the other me better.

We like you no matter how you are dressed j9... but little clothing never hurt anybody

Well, tequila is going to get me in trouble... Or maybe someone else! :eek:

Actually, I have not had any YET!!

Tequilla... the number one drink that leads to someone's clothes being torn off

I can't remember what happens when you eat the worm...

I know... you taste something gross

No... I just don't remember what happened after I swallowed the worm last time!!

Well now you have no choice but to drink tonight, we must find out the answer!

The answer?

Yeah... the answer to what the worms in tequilla taste like

Oh, heck, I don't remember, LOL :p

I love tequila... it makes me happy :D:D

Wow... we still drinking tequila this morning..? Lol

I have a confession... I didn't drink any tequila last night but, I will have a shot or two this weekend.

Speaking of weekend... what are everyone's plans this weekend?

Nah, no tequila, last night or this morning really. I don't drink liquor anymore. Maybe a glass of wine here or a beer there, but NO liquor.

This weekend? Studying for another test!!

Fri chilling for me...
Sat afternoon university, Sat night dinner at a friends.
Sunday work in garden :)

Oh... you poor thing! I think there will have to be a BIG celebration once all your schooling is done! (That would be a good time for the kids to stay at grandma and grandpa's).

I've learned a lot of you from your "Introduction" which you posted recently! YOU ARE AMAZING and a great role model! You have been through sooo much and are still very positive about life and what it brings you!

[QUOTE=SINGLE4]Wow... we still drinking tequila this morning..? Lol

Well it is 3pm for me here heheh :D

Thank you Single. Yes, I believe a celebration will be in order IF I make it through. Times are rather trying right now, particularly because of one individual. But I may be starting the semester all over in January at a different campus just to get this person off my back.

It is not something I want to do as it will delay my graduation, but if it makes life easier, who knows.

Krs... you are working in the garden... I'm jealous!! I woke up this morning to go start my car before work and it was covered with a heavy frost (like ice)! It was 20 degrees when I left this morning! BBBrrr!

Sounds like you have a nice and relaxing weekend ahead of you! Can I come visit you? Hee Hee

Oh... you poor thing! I think there will have to be a BIG celebration once all your schooling is done! (That would be a good time for the kids to stay at grandma and grandpa's).

Its still fairly warm here right now.

Sure u can.
Though you would have to leave to day to get to where I am :p

Ha, think again because grandma and grandpa are going to Disappear!

Nah, "Nanny and Pop, " as the kids call them are great and have already bought me a new car and have been discussing the possibility of a graduation vacation to England or somewhere of my choosing.

Besides england what would your choice be?

Maybe Scotland or Ireland. Hubby's family is from England and Scotland. They are a VERY famous family, at least here in the U.S. And lives of thousands have been saved because of an invention of hubbys great-grandfather. So, I would like to see where the roots started.

What's the surname if you don't mind me asking?

England is very nice, I heard scotland is bueatiful, ireland never been :(

Seagrave, my hubby's great-grandfather invented the Seagrave fire truck. It was used in NY during 9/11, among other times and places.

WOW I have heard of that name :)

I think you will like england, which part would u like to visit?

I have no idea as of yet. I still have 1 1/2 years to think about it.:p

If you need any guidance I'm happy to help :D

I think one of the best things about visiting england or Europe in general is the rich history it has. I mean America is so young and unless you go to the East Coast you don't really grasp it's history. I hope one day I can tour Europe, mainly because I am a history buff and it would be very enlightening... spiritually and intellectually

I want to visit Nice for a few days... love the have the hot chocolate.. never could find chocolate that taste that good that buttery since... the year was 1975... hippie... pressing hair with clothes irons... family started from France, then Africa, India... then the United States and then the uniqueness begins Native American and African American... we have the United Nations coming to the family reunions... we want to expand on it... It is a WOW feeling here... Gods work... need a family presence... learning to love variety... now I understand where the girls were trained...

Malta has lots and lots of history :)

I would love to visit the mediterranean, the old chapels and churches all over europe including Renne Le'Chateau, count the gargoyles on the buildings, visit Giza, etc and enjoy the kind of peace, culture, history and such that I have yet to enjoy.

Good morning, everyone:)!

Giza... where is that?

Good afternoon :) from the Med ;)

Whoohoo!

Giza is in Egypt, along with all the pyramids and tombs and sand and camels. :)

Oh OK, must admit sounds nice, doesn't it. Got confused as Egypt, Giza, isn't in the Med Sea, Europe, that's why.

I was in Italy for 3 weeks over the summer. It was the most amazing experience of my life. I swear I could live there. The people are so kind and generous. The country is beautiful. Everything is so laid back, even when you are working. If someone said to me today I have tickets do you want to go... I would say yes and leave everything behind.

That's the europeans for you lol

Italy is bueatiful. Close to my home :)

Italy is so great. There is no place like it on earth. I want to go back!

Where were u in Italy?

Almafi Coast - Positano, Almafi, Sorrento, Naples
Rome
Tuscany- San Gimignano as a home base and then all over the region
Florence

Loved Tuscany (imagine that) and even named my dog after the region

Wow we seen more than I have in Italy. Ive only been to Rome. Might go to FLorence next year. I heard that Tuscany is out of this world.
Sicily is nice too.

My husband wanted to go to Sicily, but we ran out of time.
The Almafi Coast is wonderful.
Ohh and I left out the Isle of Capri

Ma l'italia e molto bella, mi piace un sacco! ;)

Sicily is nice these days, back in the day it was abit dodgy, you know... you talking to me! LOL...

You emailed me didn't u, asking me which island I came from?

I did... one of your posts really had me interested

:confused: which one?
What did I say?

I don't remember now... but it was something about your island that was really close to Italy... are you from Sicily?

Nope but very close ;) Much smaller than the island of sicily
Although I speak Italian hehehe

Italian... the language of love... my husband does too.

I agree people say French is the language of love but I disagree, Italian is much more romantic and bueatiful.

Im from the tiny isle of...
Malta..

U know of it?

The Maddalena Islands?

I never heard of the Maddalena Islands...

Im from The Maltese Islands.
Malta, Gozo and Comino.
Comino is inhabited and I'm from Malta :)

Mandella Islands are near Sardina.
I have never heard of your island... do you get many tourists?

I went to search them on Google as I was curious to find out.

Yes lots of tourists, mainly English, Italians, German and French Students...
Especially in our long summer seasons.

Search for Malta on Google

Just did. It looks beautiful!

:)
Its tiny isn't?

It is... but it looks like a great place

Yea, most times I love it...

Good morning from the 'cold' state of Texas, I heard you talking so I assumed somebody had the coffee brewing, or are you too busy touring the world?

We are busy touring the world, want to join? But We got a hot flask of coffee to take along with us :)

Is it snowing in Texas? Because it is cold enough to snow here :)
That is why I am traveling to KRS' island

Come Come Tuscany, always welcome.
Weather forecast in Malta right now :-

Sunny with a few scattered clouds, low winds, 22 deg Celius.
Same forecast for the whole wkend.

The drawback about Malta is it never snows here :(

I am a big fan of snow... but I like sun better!!

Snowing in Texas? Your kidding right? I haven't seen snow in a few years and what we get here barely covers the side walk, Now ice is another story. Pass that flask, lets make sure we got real coffee. WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!! That'll take the nip out of the air this morning.

Trying living in Nebraska! Not much to look at..! Right now the sun it out and we are all excited about it being in the 50's this weekend! (That is warm for us this time of year). The farmers almanac calls for 3 major snow storms for our area in December! Bbbbrrrr!

Tuscany... I see you are from New York! I know I will probably never make it out of the US in my life but I would LOVE to go to NEW YORK!!

I was just kidding... I live not to far from Buffalo... so we have already been pounded with a good bit of the white stuff... but hey I did not have to teach for like 4 days... and we never lost power

I must admit I definitely prefer the summer season. I mean here all we get is Summer and Winter. Exteremly HOT summers and winters do get cold but not cold enough to snow and besides we have NO moutains here. But when it rains it rains... The heavens open, we get a lot of storms, heavy ones too, which I love too.

But in America you must get all the seasons right?

Id love to visit America :D

[QUOTE=SINGLE4]Trying living in Nebraska! [QUOTE]

Where is Nebraska? :o

Depends on where you live in the states. But yes most of the US does get 4 seasons, of varying degrees. We range in temperature from -10 below to 90+ degrees Fahrenheit here in NY, but Tal in Texas might not get such a range.

How do you calculate from Fahrenheit to Celsius?
As I don't understand Fahrenheit :o

US is SOOOOOOOOOOO huge, SOOOOOOOOOOO huge man.
Not many people in Malta are lucky enough to Travel to the US, the flights are so expensive, as we don't have direct flights from here, you would need to get a connecting flight in england or germany...

I can't imagine it. Especially coming from a person like me, living on an island that 17 miles wide and 5 miles long hehehe... madness!

Temps range from -23 to 32 degrees celsius

Sorry forgot ;)

-23.. I never ever experienced such cold. The coldest it gets here is 5deg C, but the hottest it went up to was 44deg C.

It is funny... I have seen more of Italy then I have of the US. I have never been west of the Mississippi

Now that is hot!! Tal might have experienced that... 111 degrees

That is funny.
Thou Italy is smaller and u can c a lot in 3 weeks.

Have you travelled in Europe?

Yes I have. Quite abit.

I lived in england for 6 years. My husband is english.
I have been to, Paris, London, Amsterdam, Rome, and Sicily.

now that is hot!!! Tal might have experienced that...111 degrees

Its nice on the beach, actually more in the sea, sipping an ice cold maltese lager ;)

Nope its summer through to Jan mostly and winter in February, cold but I haven't worn a winter coat since 2002. Hm I left it in Indiana, now its COLD there and It snows like... WE called them blizzards, but nothing shut down unlike Texas, if it snows they shut all north Texas down and you stay home until its gone, strangest thing I ever saw. The sun melts things by noon most times

WOW amazing. So u only have 1 month of winter?

WOW amazing. So u only have 1 month of winter?


KRS I wish I were where you are. ;)

I live in Nebraska also, it is located smack dab in the middle of the US. Most of Nebraska is flat and our main source of income is farming corn, soy beans, and raising cattle.

We have more than 1 month of winter here, we have approximately 5 months--and I hate it. As Single4 said we feel lucky it will be 50 degrees this weekend here. :(

I am a warm weather person myself--I don't like cold. Last winter I was snowed in-- our drive way had 3 - 4 feet of snow and we couldn't get out also our electricity was out for 3 days because of the blizzard. We finally got out when a nice farmer drove by on his tractor and dug us out.

All of you sound so experienced in traveling--I guess I am too poor to travel, but someday maybe. :rolleyes:

I can live through you guys.

As compared to other parts of the country. Far as I know the only ski's in Texas are water ski's. Now the wind can be brutal and you better protect yourself, 30 degrees may shut every thing down as the wind makes what they call black ice and they shut down all the highways.

Black ice is hideous.

BIM you are welcome to come visit me.
If you are a warm weather person then the mediterrean would actually suit you rather well, such as places like spain, italy and MALTA (my home).
Our main source of income in Malta is tourism.

We have farmers to in Malta but mainly in Gozo, Gozo is a smaller island as Malta is the mother island of the maltese archipelago.

I can't imagine what I would do if I saw so much snow. When I lived in UK for 6 years it snowed only once but not a lot and I remember I was SO excited the I ran outside and bare handed I grabbed a bunch of snow... and OUCH it hurt lol, silly mediterrean gal ;)

Here in NY it is similar to BIM. Typically we have winter from November to the middle of March. And I live where there is lake effect snow... having more then a foot of snow in a couple of hours has been known to happen.

I want snow... Im jealous.

Here in Malta it starts getting warm in April, summer starts in May through to Oct, but July is the hottest month, November is pleasant, December through to Feb - what we call "winter", March.. a very short spring lol

And I live where there is lake effect snow....

What's that?

My brother is infatuated with NY, all I hear is NY NY NY NY.. he wants to be come a NYPD...
He LOVES america

I don't want snow!! :( I want warm & sunny. :)

I have never been to NY - I would like to go at christmas, I think that would be nice.

Actually its in our thing to do list some time.
Me, hubby, bro, mum and her partner, spend Xmas in NY..
Just like the movies :)
With snow everywhere, jumping into the yellow cabs, walking passed all those huge buildings. Amazing. 1 of my dreams.
Visit the Empire State building, statue of liberty...

Black ice?? huh
When the cold wind freezes the pavement making it so slick you have no control over you car. You can't see it either. When I lived in Indiana on the tip of Lake Michigan the lake effect snow was like a blizzard some time. I never stayed home from school because of the weather in my life and have a bad back to this day from shoveling snow all my life. You can have the snow and cold, but I do miss cross country skiing in the winter.

Ive never been skiing and again its one thing I HAVE to do. In fact next New Year hopefully go to switzerland or austria which are great for skiing and give it a shot.

[QUOTE=SINGLE4]Trying living in Nebraska! [QUOTE]

Where is Nebraska? :o

Nebraska is somewhat in the middle of the US! There are 2 states between Nebraska and Texas! Texas is to the South of Nebraska!

I actually live 5 hours away from NYC. They get far less snow there then I do where I live. NYC during the holidays is magical. I have only been there during that time once or twice. When they get a lot of snow it gets kind of hairy there because they have no place to put it.

WOW 5 hours drive.
Here in Malta to get from 1 end to the other end of the island could probably take you 1 hr maximum lol

KRS I just looked up Malta. It looks awesome. Are you anywhere near Comino "The Blue Lagoon" That is where I want to be. Soooooo pretty.

WOW I didn't even know that place existed. Malta is an Island, right? (stupid me from Nebraska) What do you do there?

It looks like you could get to Spain, Italy, France, & Greece pretty easily, do you fly there? (probably another stupid question) :confused:

Speaking of NYC... I can't wait for the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade

Is Crete nice?

Speaking of NYC...I can't wait for the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade

What is the purpose of Thanksgiving actually :)?

Is Crete nice?

I have never been to Greece, though would love to 1 day, but from what I hear all the greek islands including Crete are bueatiful

What is the purpose of Thanksgiving actually :)?

To eat and give thanks for family and friends... oh and to watch American football

Thanksgiving is also great for getting in the naptime that so many need, turkey is good for that... when its coupled with dessert, football and... food. Lol.

And when do you celebrate it?
And do you eat Turkey for Xmas too?

Next Thursday, actually!:) Turkey is traditional, but I know a lot of people who make a ham, instead. I think its mostly choice, really. As for Christmas we usually get a turkey breast instead of a whole one.

In my family we each beef at christmas or Italian foods

Red meat is awesome... any good holiday recipes?

We go for traditional HUGE Turkey meal for Xmas.

We start with Soup, Lasagne, Turkey - potatoes and veg, then sweets and lots of liquor ;)

Then all stuffed on the sofa lol

o_o That sounds good.

Chicken Parm then beef tenderloin with all the fixins... lots of desserts and drinks. Gaining weight just thinking about it

What's a traditional American dish?

Chicken Parm then beef tenderloin with all the fixins...lots of desserts and drinks. Gaining weight just thinking about it

Sounds good too... yumm!

Whats a traditional American dish?


Turkey with stuffing, Apple/Pumpkin/Pecan Pies, Mashed Potatoes and Gravy, veggies, Cranberry Sauce, and I think anything else you can fit on the table:).

What's Pecan?
I love food.
All that sounds scrummy yummmiiiieeee

Even here in the Med, food is great!

Pecans are just another nut, but good ones. Here's a recipe for it:).

http://southernfood.about.com/od/pecanpies/r/bln32.htm

What dishes are popular over where you are at?:)

Thanks for that :)

Well, popular foods here are PASTA, all kinds of pasta with different sauces, such a red sauces or cream sauces, with meats or fish etc.

We love our steak here too.
My favorite restaurant in Malta believe it or not is :- Buffalo Bills ;)

Traditional maltese food is, baked pasta, very very good. Only Malta does it ;)
And also we have amazing maltese bread, for lunch in summer this is awesome. We sliced the maltese bread, smear a fresh tomato on it, add the pieces of tomatoes, add oil, salt n pepper, olives and capers.. and its easy and so tasty. Sometimes we can add tuna.

You ladies have been passing that flask and talking ALL morning, Do you think this is a Holiday? Pass that flask this way will you?

OOOpps all gone Tal sorry lol

Well Krs... I have been doing some "investigating" into Malta on the internet and I have decided that... I'M COMING!!

I can first pick up BIM here in Nebraska and then we can take a detour to Texas and pick Tal up and then head Northwest and pick Tuscany up in New York! If anyone else wants to go... let me know! I'll rent a bus... Hee Hee!

ALL ABOARD!!

I'll go but we need a bigger flask. That a long trip.

Heheheh LOL sounds like a great plan my friends... ill have to look into a nice sweet apartment on the promenade by the sea.
How does that sound my friends?

OMG, its 6pm, been chatting all day today oopppss, got to go folks.
LOVELY CHATTING
Speak to u soon xxxx

Count me in!! :D

I'll try and fit into that bikini of mine (yuck) but I'll take one for the team because we are going :p

We'll pick up a few beverages to take on the bus--I bet we could pick up J-9 on the way also.

We'll follow the yellow brick road.

I'll go but we need a bigger flask. That a long trip.


Hahahaha!

Ha Ha... forget the bikini's... WE ARE GOING "SKINNY DIPPIN' IN THE MEDITERRANIAN"! Lol... doesn't that sound fun!!

I'll let my boss know I will be gone for... a month! Hell... I may not go home!!

Oh, yes, by all means pick me up!! Will have to be after December 13, as that is my final exam, then I am free until January 17!!

Skinny Dipping??

We can wait until December 13th... prob!

J9... Don't tell you have never been skinny dippin'?!

I'd skinny dip--but no one can look until I'm in the water... :eek:

Heck, I'm not skinny enough to dip LOL

Heck... I'm not either but... we will wait until it is dark and yes BIM... we can't look at each other until we are in the water!

Although... we will all have "liquid courage"!! Ha Ha

Well, I am in then!! As long as the liquid courage keeps flowing!!

OMG you guys talk so much lol... I would be so fat if I lived with tuscany or krs, mainly because italian is my favorite kind of foods, that and I just love noodles. I use to live in that cold snow you guys were talking about. I lived in South Dakota for like 12 years and the blizzards up there are legendary. Coincidentally enough one time I took a drive from Arizona to South Dakota, and on our way back from Arizona we drove up through Nebreska during February and that was SO much snow. We were shut inside of a hotel for like two days.

Krs as far as those long drives go... I drove from California to South Dakota in 23 hours, it's about a 1,400 miles.

I live in California now and there is no really change in weather, I mean it gets colder a bit during the winter and a hotter during the summer, but that's about it, however there are massive rain storms, last march it rained 29 days out of 31! One of the most depressing things about living here is the lack of snow during christmas, it really doesn't feel like the holidays without snow.

I wish I could go to malta as well... italy too! I have traveled to every state west of the Mississippi, and I have been to New York and Newark(one of the worst ghetto's in the country), however if you really want to nice city to visit I recommend Seattle it's beautiful.

Seattle? I love rain, must be georgeous! OMG you are not to skinny to dip if you are doing it WITH liquid courage!

Send out the memo!

MEMO

Here 'e, Here 'e... the bus is leaving for Malta to visit Krs on December 13th. Any persons interested in having a "good time" please rsvp to me by December 1st.

On the way there. (I'm not driving back!)


Oh... what happens in Malta... STAYS IN MALTA!! Lol... (NO CAMERAS) Hee Hee

You may a well chug a couple of flasks and some big ones at that, if you think your driving to Malta in a bus, the Atlantic ocean doesn't have lanes so it won't matter if your drunk or not.

ROFLMAO, T, it is the Magic Schoolbus!!

CALGON TAKE ME AWAY!!

No more nursing care plans, no more adult health assessments, no more drug cards!!

Is it December 13 yet?

No but IT IS FRIDAY!! The Eagle Flies on Friday... And so do I! LOCK up the women and children... NO PRISONORS!!

Oh, yeah, Friday.

Hey did we ever find Saturday?

I personally like Monday. I have to study on Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Tests are on Monday, so I can celebrate then.

No and at this rate we may lose another Saturday too, Now get inside with the other women and children This is MAN"S night and it won't be pretty, see you Sunday!!

Suhweet...

See if I cook any food for the games on Sunday!! LOL

Pass the d*** bottle... need a sugar rush too... got to get the girls bouncing... it is cold in Texas... need to find a fur trim coat... oh no... what time is it... too dark out side... need to sleep... yeah go to sleep... see yea in the morning... hi have my hot liquid ready for me in the morning... or I will be very irritated... watch your step Luna... ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!snore snores! Loud ZZZZZZZZZZ phlegm in my throat ZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

Ok, I GOT THE MEMO! I'M NOT PACKING ANYTHING BUT Q-TIPS AND THE BEST BOTTLE OF SOMETHING COLD FROM WALMART! Bottle is for everyone to pass around, q-tips are for brains that may need to get poked on the way across the ocean. Muahaha...

Good morning, everyone, haha. Once I saw 'magic school bus' and the reference to calgon that did it for me.:) Going to be moving soon, isn't that fantastic? I don't expect any ticker tape parades this year but I sure as heck would really like some warm weather to get here already. Hope you get better soon, LUNAGODDESS!

Where you movin' to Senatra? Malta? We're all going there in the "Magic Schoolbus" December 13th!!

I think I'll quit my mundane,boring, secretarial job and move there. I did research and they say the main income is tourism. I'll just lay in the nice blue water and let the tourist view a beached whale.

Maybe I could make some money off that? Ya' think?

Rofl, no BIM, I WISH it were Malta, or some other beautiful bit of ocean/countryside living! Same area, just different house.

You may a well chug a couple of flasks and some big ones at that, if you think your driving to Malta in a bus, the Atlantic ocean doesn't have lanes so it won't matter if your drunk or not.

No but... I will need a bus to pick all the peopole up in the STATES!

Rofl


Living here in Nebraska us hillbilly folk don't get them there abbreviation things you big city folk write---could you tell me what ROFL is?

You guys really would love to be at my house today, it happens to be my sister's sweet sixteen, and there is a tremendous amount of food at my house. Cookies, Cake, Brownies, Chips, Pizza, Chinese Food, Little weine's, Chicken Wings, Barbecue... the list goes on and on and on. However, I will be eating none :(. I am a very picky eater, and I only eat things that will help my weight lifting, not things that turn me into a coach potater. Anyway, if you really want some I am considering shipping leftovers for a nominal fee...

I'll take the wings and barbecue!! Protein is good for the brain before a test!!

Who Said Cake?

I said cake... a magnificent chocolate cake with mouse filling chocolate mouse filling and truffles center... but wizkid want us to come over and bring our children for his sister's birthday party... and he lifting weights... while we eat... I want to be a big girl... I have to represent the symbol of pagan mother hood here... so I need to keep eating...

I am feeling guilty about something I did... someone will tell me... but foodie is in the room.. now...

GO BEARS!!

Okay, serious business here!!

I need the "power of the family" to get through tomorrows test. At 9:00 central, I know you will be sleeping still Wizz, everyone send your vibes my way!!

I will need it for tomorrow's test. Maybe being a doctor would be much easier since we do all the work for the docs!!

Well, off to bed VERY soon so I can absorb all I took in today at the study group.

Good night sleep tight all.

I hope your test goes well, and actually I won't be sleeping tomorrow, it's my "early" day, I have a weird schedule, one day I wake up at 6:50, the next day I wake up at 8:30. Everything will go fine tomorrow J_9, try wizz's take on tests, the less you care the better you do, anyway good luck and tell us how it goes...

We know you can do, so just do it, so we can celebrate, and that the best part of a test, the CELEBRATION after!

Thanksgiving... 3 days away

Who's bringing the turkey??

KRS I just looked up Malta. It looks awesome. Are you anywhere near Comino "The Blue Lagoon" That is where I want to be. Soooooo pretty.

WOW I didn't even know that place existed. Malta is an Island, right? (stupid me from Nebraska) What do you do there?

It looks like you could get to Spain, Italy, France, & Greece pretty easily, do you fly there? (probably another stupid question) :confused:

Malta is the mother island of the Maltese Archilpelago. Then we have Gozo, then Comino which is the smallest island. On Comino there is just 1 Hotel and 1 Monestry. The Blue Lagoon is on Comino, I have been there a few times, you can get there by boat. In fact if you noticed I changed my pic.. its of Blue Lagoon. It is bueatiful

Oh... what happens in Malta... STAYS IN MALTA!!!! Lol... (NO CAMERAS) Hee Hee

Booked all free for my friends at AMHD to arrive on Dec 13th ;)
The only draw back is it may be cold to go skinny dipping... also best not to go skinny dippin at the blue lagoon as the sea water is so clear we could see everything LOL

Krs as far as those long drives go.......I drove from California to South Dakota in 23 hours, it's about a 1,400 miles.


If you drove 23 hrs in Malta = driving round the island almost 23 times heheh LOL

I've got Turkey!:)

Literally? Lol

Rofl, yeah, in the freezer:)

Good morning world and eveyone in it. 35 degrees and nippy enough to want a cup of HOT,BLACK, COFFEE. How 'bout those COWBOYS?? Whoooooooooo!

And those Bills!! Last minute they could actually pull it off... who would have thought!
The Cowboys rocked yesterday though too!

Its cloudy here on "not so sunny isle's of Malta" :(

I already had 5 cups of strong black coffee..
HATE MONDAYS :(

HATE MONDAYS :(

Hear you on that! Although due to Thanksgiving I only work Monday and Tuesday this week. Yippeee!! :D

Lucky you...

Not me thou :(

But in Dec we have 2 public holidays mid-week that break the week off nicely. Then its XMAS yyeaaaahhhhh

I plan on sleeping in for a couple of days during this break!!

I love sleeping :D
Its my favorite hobby LOL

I'm not as lucky as you all. I only get Thursday off :(

I hate working the day after Thanksgiving. I like to put up Christmas decorations the day after--it is kind of my tradition. I wanted to take the day after off--but was not allowed.
So what is a person to do??

I drink Diet Mountain Dew for my pick-me-up--------where's another :eek:

I absolutely LOVE putting up Christmas decorations!! I have football on and playing Christmas music. To think I am going to miss that this year :(

I'll have to do it Saturday, I guess. :(

My husband and I make a few small snacks, get some egg nog, and listen to music as we put it all together.

That sounds like fun!

I love Christmas! :p

Warning: The amount of shopping days seems like a lot, but it goes by fast!

Speaking of christmas, there is a misconception that the largest shopping of day of the year is after thanksgiving, or black Friday. When in all actuality it is either the saturday/sunday before christmas...

What I love best abot christmas is that it installs hope and cheer...
