Chosen size precised, remember your P-math SM ma'am.

She'd end up with a frozen gas line one day or turned into a popsicle after getting stranded.

Then we could call the rubias, opportune man.

Talk about entitled.

After taking care of her and her family for Many years, my wife still doesn't appreciate anything I do...

<sigh>

So what happened this time, huh man?

Call some* rubias, obvious solution man.

 

*not our rubias, no man

So exactly when will this delicacy be served, huh D ma'am?

You get yourself into the kitchen and rustle up this tasty snack for us right now, si D ma'am!

Delinquent Ontarklar!  Delinquent, DELINQUENT Ontarklar!

We said, we don't go around carrying possum-on-a-stick, no man.

That's how you Arkansas types bring them home for supper after you spear them, that's what man.

I don't cook the kids pets  

Oh I'm pretty sure the Arkansans tie the tails together and just string them over their shoulders.

Mrs. T-B. turns Many years old on Friday, gonna have to spend some money we man.

For 2 weeks*, she's been admiring herself in front of the mirror, vain she man.

 

*actually, for as long as we've known her, honestly man.

 

After thorough self-admiration, she says, "Don't I look young and pretty for being Many years old, huh man?"

To this, we have replied, "You're not Many years old yet, so you don't look young and pretty, no man."

Happy Birthday to Mrs. TB

We've been looking for a hotel in NYC again. I cencelled our booking in Pointe Plaza, we booked a hotel near Queensbridge Park and then we read thre reviews about rooms being really small (despite theirs description on booking.com), about dirt and bed bugs ewwww... So we cancelled that booking too and still looking for a place. Gosh, it's nerve-racking 🤯

Ewwww bed bugs are the worst, but unfortunately a fairly common problem in US hotels, lower income housing, and even in some dressing rooms in NYC. They are pain to get rid of.

Very cultural within the UK that thing! 

 

Yeah, I know a little about that. My father was raised in council housing and my grandmother never worked, despite being divorced at a young age.  The entitlement was strong with that one. She should have just gone back to the Netherlands, but that is a story for a different day.

Make her sleep in a tent on the lawn. That is what I threaten the Dane with when he is being bratty.  Not that we'll have a lawn for a few months yet, but we could have shoveled out an igloo or something.

Now we know your secret plan - you keep draining her gas tank on purpose!

I feel like I've seen patches of grass in other boroughs. I'm not familiar with Brooklyn.  🤔  Whatever, pitch a tent on the concrete outside your house.  The end.

Many.  Happy Birthday to Mrs. TB

1.  You resume slaving over that hot stove right now, delinquent D ma'am!

2.  Do you personally prefer this method, or possum-on-a-stick, which ma'am?

Many.  Not her birthday till Friday, ignore we man.

No lawns or yards or anything of aesthetic value in Nueva York, sorry ma'am.

Furthermore, Steveklar would never resort to this, everyone knows why man.

Between July Many'st and Many'th, 2-day period ma'am.

We got our hairs cut, shorn we man.

Again at the 2-chair Mexicana place, best price in town beyond the incompetent Vietnamese place man.

Fortunately got Lucy and not Margarita again, 2nd or Many'rd time in a row man.

Now to convince Mini-B. of his urgent need for cut-hairing, obstinate-in-defiance wee man.

[TBoneTX 44,793]

Citywide GS gig in nearby small town coming up on Sat., loads of fun last time man.

Mrs. T-B. not committed to going, would enjoy it despite her protestations she man.

Has not suggested alternatives but might resent our going, Wives Are Strange man.

Another heap of snow fell on Santa Fe this morning. Waiting to see if they cancel the work day. Fifth winter here in NM and I've never seen it snow so much nor so late in the season, in town.

 

The silver lining is that skiing up at Taos should be good this weekend and I may go a few more times as spring skiing is probably going to extend deep into April.
