Snibbits

Larry "Wide Stance" Craig has had his Whine and Cheese party in Minnesota court and been denied the motion to retract his guilty plea. I'm laughing.

SCHIP has still been vetoed. Please check the post below and call your Congresscritters and tell them to get that override done.

The Cubs are one step away from the World Series. They will choke. You read it here first.

I really do need to find a "fabricaholics anonymous" group. Yes, I did. I got 6 yards of various blue and white fabrics. I have this idea.........................

I need a plumber. Who doesn't charge an arm and a leg and several major internal organs. To fix a leak. In the shower. Preferably with his clothes on, unless he is really cute and single, in which case I'll waive the last requirement.

Rabbits ate my rhubarb plant. I am thinking of hiring Elmer Fudd. I had thought it was the roofers, actually, but Carol at work told me it was rabbits.

When I got home last nite, the roofers were removing the dumpster unit from the driveway next to mine where nobody lives, and once it was on the truck, they swept the driveways, which was darn nice of them and all. Then I went into my back garden and saw that they had swept my whole patio, which was also darn nice - swept it even better than *I* usually do. Although they knocked over my Smokey Joe - but I can fix that easy enough. But then I looked at the plants to see if anything needed to be pruned or pulled out or anything - and MY RHUBARB IS GONE.

So I thought it was the darn roofers. But Carol says rabbits, and I believe her, so I shall go looking for an Elmer Fudd.

What's a Smokey Joe? Is it a barbeque?

"Snibbits" Hum, a new word to me.

"I really do need to find a "fabricaholics anonymous" group. Yes, I did. I got 6 yards of various blue and white fabrics." So you are bat shit crazy, so what? We are all bat shit crazy.

"The Cubs are one step away from the World Series." Whateverthefuck, I don't follow overpaid sports.

"I need a plumber. Who doesn't charge an arm and a leg and several major internal organs. To fix a leak. In the shower."

It just seems to me that you are capable of fixing it yourself if you just put your mind to it. It's just simple building and mechanical crap. I can fix a leak, rebuild an automatic transmission. I can't make a complex quilt.

"Rabbits ate my rhubarb plant." Damn, that reminds me, George S has some at his place and I forgot to get some of it. I would love to make a rhubarb pie.

They've won two now? I haven't even watched a game, or even checked the sports pages. My Detroit Tigers decided to take the second half off, and I'm still having to remind myself it's murder if I go up there and cut their heads off, even if it is justifiable.:) I'd sure like to see the Cubs win JUST one, but I'm also sure my hopes aren't alone.:)

Plumbers, hmmm? I've got a plumber coming round next week to fix my shower but I'm pretty sure he will be very uncute as last night I had an electrician round to fix my oven. And he was STUNNING! Honestly, I couldn't believe it as they're usually mingers. To have that vision of loveliness in my kitchen was rather nice I must say! ;-)
