The Rainbow Rant (now with Unicorns)

[SAT 9,609]

I kind of want one and I'm serious, but it would just sit around collecting dust. I already sleep with a rifle and a machete nearby and maybe a knife or two.

good idea....you just dunno when those Danes are gonna act up

[Darnell 8,478]

it is circuit's birthday today! and...27 days till i can celebrate with him in person.

I hope you sent him some odiferous underbritches.

yes, I did mean a pair of yours, not someone else's

[Darnell 8,478]

That's some kinky stuff

Not really. that piece of gear can kill a man. also extends one's reach, so there is some advantage during the confrontation.

No, I'd never wield it only to show it. if one see's it, it's the last thing they'd be seeing...

Maybe circuit likes the Japanese school girl kind better

[Darnell 8,478]

Steve - if'n you ain't carrying around yer wife's odiferous underbritches in a baggie stuffed deep into yer laptop carry bag,

then you need to shut up about the Japanese teenager bits, as you only wanna make the scheckels on distribution.

I'm very surprised you not set up a shop nearby, what with CraigsList being so handy for the selling of erroneous bits of stuff..... [yes, that means recruitment at the various colleges nearby, as well, for those foreign-exchange students]

nothing says loving and caring like a pair of fragrant undies...

ew.

i sent him a sodastream...he is obsessed with it. think he likes it.

[Darnell 8,478]

Great news.

Tonight she brought over tofu with veg. I think she's no gonna cook any meat for me this season

Once she got through the mud room and into some clean shoes, she seemed happy tonight, and asked me about the multi-screen set up in my lab area. I showed her the stock trading portfolio screens, and with one click, changed all to simplified chinese. Now she wants me to teach her more about this, as the 'chinese-stock-trading game' rules not apply here.... So a small win....

I tried to show her Chicago Exchange futures about 2 years ago, set up a play account, even in chinese but she said the calculations were too hard (then). Now she's interested to learn some math, after seeing my net from last week.

I dunno, she's coming along. My biggest hurdle was for her to be open to adapt to small things. For anyone, really, it's a collection of small things that'll drive ya nuts. One or two, easy peasy. 1000 in a week is overwhelming, and her reaction almost killed us. She's almost out of 'congregation' mode, seemingly, and has opened up to learn the small things. She finally understands she cannot change overnight, ain't no osmosis process to instantly pick up the right stuff, and now fully understands why I hired a PA for her.

Mrs T-B, American Citizen, looks like she's cruising for local boys.

She'll admit to you and anyone: Had she stayed in Ecu, she'd have been an old maid, because she didn't want anyone there. In fact, she was viewed as an old maid down there.

Funny: On my first trip to Mrs. T-B.'s hometown after we got married, I went off to an Internet cafe. A guy hanging around in there (chatting up the rather cute clerkette) spoke English and was curious about me. When I told him who I was and whom I'd married, he nearly fell off his chair and said, "YOU married ___ ___??!!"

shlt stirrer.....

I'm fully aware of Mrs. T-B.'s rojo (redheaded affair-guy), just as she's fully aware of the rubias, si man. In fact, I told her to take the rojo with her to Ecu or to try to meet one there, whee man.

Well, she is an Americana now. You've got to trade them in for a new one once they go CABA.

+1, hee hee man.

You coulda sold that old grill to Tark for 38 cents man!

I don't pay shipping fees, no man.

[TBoneTX 45,329]

buffer in my own family and buffer now...I need to de-buffer somehow.....

Take Bufferin and barf it up, si man.

Just a cameo visit tonight, in&out man. Cat alternates between jumping on lap (causing one-handed typing) and jumping off to bring wadded-up Carl's Jr. wrapper for Daddy to play ball with. She even knocked it around herself, came back to look at Daddy, then repeated the process. Daddy got the message, and some WrapperBall was played downstairs.

Got a ceiling-level A/C return, probably original to casa; grill is busted; no solo grill is sold in that size; bought new grill + frame; frame seemingly will fit into cutout in ceiling, but old frame is apparently cemented in there, with several coats of paint obviously souping up the borders. Being an unbalanced individual, we cannot stand on a chair, looking skyward, chiseling old apparatus out, and not expect to fall over or get "bonkus of the conkus" if the thing finally dislodges. Same dysbalance applies when drilling holes for new apparatus. We must recruit a neighbor or Central American passerby for aid, see man.

Spent a frustrating hour-plus researching electric companies to choose from when current contract expires. Cheapest non-ripoff plan is .02 cents/kWh more than the (no pun intended) current plan, sigh man. How some of these companies stay in business escapes me, no see man.

Must eat remaining non-green banana (first typed banananana -- hard to know when to stop) before it goes too black and before the hormigas del cocina (kitchen ants) get it. We didn't know that hormigas liked bananas, headscratch man, or else there's something in the kitchen that they're now attracted to. They were all too busy to talk to me, hmmmph man.

Bananana, cat (more), prep, zzz, man. Mornin', Asia!

Morning!

afraid to tell her directly?

Her and him (his own son)

[Asia 2,498]

please stay there. if you're husband wants to see you, tell him to drive his car to see you there.

sure - that means -

1. he gets a drivers license and

2. he purchases a car and car insurance and

3. he learns how to drive.

ain't nuthing like a slog to prove up real love.

Aaaaaaaaaaannnnnnnnnnnd my +1 made this post popular

So it has to mean something. It HAS, Jada!

[JTB11 1,079]

I don't have any plus 1s left yet ah !

Good morning all,

no smoothie. Found out that there will be 21 adults at the bday party this Sunday. Must be making appetizers. Got 5 in mind, we shall see.

had a convo with the hubs and by that I mean....I talked 80% of the time..so he did say things. We have established that:

- he hates NYC but when I mention that me and him are on opposite sides of the spectrum when it comes to where to live he changes his mind to - "I can get used to it and no longer hate it with passion and don't think that you will become horrible person when you live there because everyone in NYC is mean" - confused me there

- he wants to also go out to restaurants with me because it might be fun but not with people - but I need to research places in Columbus, tell him i want to go and ask his parents if they can drive us and then he will go - I guess that works.

- he plans to get a car and a license - timing ? "sooner rather than later"

gave him an exercise seeing that he says he does not think: " Think about our marriage, figure out if we can make this work and if we can - what will you do to contribute to that." Not interested in yes or no answers...told him I want concrete things that make sense no bs.

So far...no response....giving it a week.

I like it too.

Get it, a rifle and machete are not going to intimidate Northern Minnesotans. But they get all queasy when seeing a weapon that causes much pain before death. Like my spear gun scares the heII out of people. I think there's something about the thought of a two foot metal shaft on a tether impaling a person that brings out their "don't truck with this guy" attitude. I can see that four flail morning star having the same effect.

it is circuit's birthday today! and...27 days till i can celebrate with him in person.

Happy birthday Circuit! Aren't you waiting a little long to celebrate, hop on the plane now and surprise him.
