I like the almonds you can keep the rest :P

 

 

 

So a guy on my FB sends me a message. I never talk to this guy in private messages.  Yesterday I sent him a message because I got a friend invite from his name but no pics and nothing on his main account about starting a new FB. I figured it was a scammer. He messages me back short and sweet he did not send it. 

 

So this morning I get a message telling me about this International Monetary fund. Goes on to say he got 70k sent right to his door. At first I thought he was talking about energy grants or stuff like it when he was talking about it. Told him I don't live there anymore and wouldn't be eligible for it. Then he goes on about how it's all over. First thing I did was google it when he told me he got 70k. Ya scam alert started screaming in my head. 

 

I'm pretty sure he would be working  14 hour shifts 14 days straight away from his wife in another town if he just got 70K. Plus he works in the mines don't think cellphones would work down there or be allowed to use when he's on the job. So the time of day seems off too. 

 

Hopefully my message to his wife gets seen. I would hate for the hacker to message someone and get money out of them.

Got Mini-B.'s new passport applied for, cosmopolitan wee man.

Doing this at the courtcasa less chaotic than at the Post Office, only done at the latter previously man.

Many (2x2x2+2) dedicated passport stations, plenty for appointees & walk-ins man.

Only drawback the security to enter, strip nekkid for metal-detection like at an airport man.

We needed a crane and a can of WD-Many (WD-2x2x2x2x2+[2x2x2]) to do our shoes, ouch man.

We were some of the very select few to have everything there & correct for processing, read instructions man.

Uttered by Mini-B. in the Mrs.-T-B.-mobile after passporting, utter wee man:

 

"Daddy, did you know that if you go to the park and you fart on someone else, he has to warsh his booty in the bathtub?  That's why you should always bring your bathtub to the park.  And then a duck will come and bite you on the booty when you're warshing it, so watch out!"

They didn't tell you that he couldn't have one because your wife was foreign?  LOL.

 

I'm still US passport-less.  I'm waiting to lose more weight first.  Lost the 38 from the pregnancy and down a couple more.  Maybe by this summer I can get it done.  I got my driver's license in the mail after doing it looking 40 weeks pregnant.  I look pregnant in the face and they made my purple hair black/brown for the photo!  Hahahaha.  I still have an old NY license with blue hair.

3/2/18  E-filed N-400 under 5 year rule

They gave us the first one Many (2+2+1) years ago when Mrs. T-B. was just barely not furrin, see ma'am.

Didn't even want her proof of citizenship, gringa she man.

Apparently, Texas drivers' licenses are valid proof against illegality, one of few remaining such states man.

However, had we espied rubias, we'd have turned Mrs. T-B. over to the authorities then & there, bye she man.

But not many rubias in the courtcasa today, no man.

Ok so far I miss the auto close on the french doors of the fridge.  The fridge drawer and freezer drawer has the auto close just not the top french doors.

I also changed things around in it again :P 

I need to find the right spot for things.
