The Return of the Pink Ranter

1. All southern exposure, that was important to me when selecting it.

2. Her first thought was how the heck was she ever going to clean a place that big

1. In Texas, one does not EVER want a casa with western exposure, electricity bill$ man.

2. When I first brought Mrs. T-B.-to-be home, she didn't stop in the entryway to take things all in. She barreled right through, then announced, "I can handle this." Later, when she saw my cousins' large casa for the first time, she asked, "How many people live here???" She was floored to learn that it was just two, si man.

several things response:

Regrettably, it sounds like there are several fundamental incompatibilities: having kids, where to work, attitudes about money, emotional supportiveness, influence of & proximity to parents. Remove this last one, and you might have a fighting chance.

I'm shocked how much we save on fruit and veggies buying from the big asian grocery stores.

We do this (and the meat and chicken, on special) at the Mexican supermarket. More recently, we're fortunate to have Aldi Foods, $i man.

His money should be considered your money, too, and he shouldn't guilt trip you about buying you something! That's what husbands do.

Ciudada-NA America-NA (sigh man sigh man), etc.

They do that in Ecuador, too. Little minimarts and restaurants literally right next to each other.

I love them, si man.

Later it became her money and her money that the husband made.

Ciudada-NA America-NA ($igh man $igh man)...

my dad planted a pear tree there and named it after me.

I had a nice chat this eve with Felix, Chuy, and Juan Pablo -- three of the kitchen ants (Mrs. T-B.'s pets).

In one of the threads about a Thai woman being smuggled in a suitcase, it quickly began to devolve into them all insulting fat people and treating us like we're not human or like we're beneath everyone else.

See the VJ Terms of Service and gauge whether any of the comments violate one or more tenets. Then, report it.

And, I've never thought of you as fat, Comrade Slim -- to have gone through your weight-control surgery is the 100% proper and most courageous step that anyone could take. This supersedes any general comments that anyone might make. Take pride in that, and concentrate on that pride to the exclusion of the unenlightened, si man.

your dad has a pear tree named Jada?

A grasshopper walks into a bar and sits down. The bartender says, "Say! Do you know that we have a drink named after you?"

The grasshopper says, "Really? You have a drink named Fred?"

Even when the sock puppet is on YOUR hand , reading along with you?

Si, man (sigh, man).

We've never used the bathtub, except to wash dogs.

Overheard in east Texas: "An' fer th' last cotton-pickin' time, Verleen -- I am NOT takin' my transmission OUT of th' bathtub!"

[TBoneTX 45,871]

I preplan meals every Sunday for the whole week

Mrs. T-B. doesn't know what (or whether) she's going to cook until she hits the kitchen to (not) do it, si and no man. I suspect that the ants have increasing levels of input...

[TBoneTX 45,871]

I sure crave a VC sammich.....

Viet Cong? "How many people are we having for dinner tonight, Dear?" asked the cannibal.

1. For lunch I had lettuce, some grapes, and a tiny portion of walnuts.

2. Yummy!

1. A chica-only lunch, sigh man.

2. A chica-only observation, see man.

tbonez! who's winning, and why?

in my roast pan a nice big beef roast, with cabbage, turnip, carrots the potatoes and wax beans will be added in a bit.

Where were you (minus the turnips and probably the cabbage) when I was single, D ma'am?

[TBoneTX 45,871]

you better give me a bucket of veggies

1. When Mrs. T-B. offers me a salad or throws too many infernal vegetables into something that shouldn't be thus adulterated, I say "soy no un conejo" (I am not a rabbit).

2. I did not claw my way to the top of the food chain merely to eat vegetables, no man.

1. well paying jobs

2. in Ecuador.

There seems to be a dichotomy here, confusion man. Elaborate, si ma'am.

I'm not about to throw hubby's visa down the toilet. I want to at least wait for his citizenship before we consider leaving.

Smart girl, IQ man.

Supper was yummy

Female-only observation, gag man.

But I read that and it doesn't answer my question! what do I do to be with the one I love so very much? We've been sky ping for 3 weeks already and I'll just die if we're not together soon.

Where's my +1,000 button, huh man?

Sacrifice a goat to the Death God and he shall answer.

Where's my +2,000 button, huh man?

Anyone here play Go? I am suddenly obsessed with it.

Stop -- what's "Go"?

chest/bicep

Fotos or it didn't happen, no ma'am.

the Chinese Zodiac is complex in its pure form.

Personally, I like the Year of the C0ck, crow man.

OK I got bored of reading that thread....

Links, please man...

Plumbers here make 6 figures (union plumbers)

Never shake hands with a plumber, no man.

The kitchen ants typically get first run of the best food, see man.

The previously broken little toe is still not back to normal, no man. I've been careful with shoes ever since, but sometimes the toe still emerges black & blue, mystery man. For how long might this keep occurring, huh man, and must I go on a renewed shoe-buying spree, $igh man?

Shall repair downstairs to cat-minister, then repair upstairs (shouldn't I "pair" first?) to prep and embed myself, zzz man.
