Cold.  So cold. Stupid weather.

-------------

Okay, when was it decided that women's eyebrows just weren't working? Why are we supposed to look like we've got woolly bear caterpillars crawling across our foreheads? Have they run out of other body parts to make women feel insecure about? That seems unlikely somehow....

David Cassidy died. There goes another chunk of my childhood.



My copy of this album is somewhere in my mother's house....

Awesome headline:

Flat-Earther to take off in homemade rocket to prove theory

Hoping to prove that dubious theory (that the earth is flat) is correct, Mr Hughes said his goal is to eventually ascend high enough that he can gather evidence that disproves the widely accepted fact of a round earth.

Okay then. Makes perfect sense.

So many of you are Thanksgivinging tomorrow? I hope you have a fantastic day. 

So obviously does this guy:


That poor dog.  You just know he's hoping the none of the other dogs see him.

Rainy cold grey yucky. Yuck.

Happy Thanksgiving to those of you celebrating.  Hope you had a great day!

My daughter's car battery went flat this morning and she needed a lift.  She moved over the weekend and when I asked for her address she ... didn't know.  Well, she knew approximately.  Kinda.  In a way.  Sorta. Fun?  Oh yeah.
~~~~~
I had some bananas going black and I didn't want to make banana bread so I made Heavenly Banana Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies.  They are very tasty and I'd make them again, but I think they'd benefit from some peanut butter. As would so many things.

Today's prompt:
Nov. 24: Have you ever rage-quit a job?

Nah, that's not my style.  I am a 'revenge best served cold' kinda girl.

One word prompt: Chaotic. which reminds me of Chaos.  Which natually reminds me of KAOS
Get Smart was must-watch tv when we were kids, as were the after-school reruns. My mom and especially my dad loved the show. We still quote from it more than probably makes sense considering it went off the air in 1970 - "Not the craw, the craw!" "the Cone of Silence" "Would you believe..." ) A couple of years ago we found the first season on DVD, and, yeah it hasn't held up, but there you go.

(P.S. I wanted to love the Steve Carrell/Anne Hathaway reboot, but no. No no no. No.)

How was your day?

Happy Thanksgiving! If you are celebrating, I hope you're having a great day!

So it's warm again. Weather, you are a tease!

My grandpuppy, Ziggy, looks like this:

All over. Tonight, after relieving herself, she then sat back down in said relief.

The takeaway?

It's hard to get dogshit out from under your nails.

We're watching Daredevil. It's really good. It's really good in spite of the following exchange:

* Matt: You just opened one of the cuts on your back.

* Claire: How do you know that?

* Matt: I can taste copper in the air.

Matt, honey, if you taste copper in the air when someone bleeds, you should ask your self why you are spending so much time with Vulcans. Just sayin'

Today's prompt:

If you're celebrating Thanksgiving today (or even if you're not!), tell us about the best cook in your family.

I have lots of great cooks in my family. My maternal grandmother was an amazing baker. My paternal grandmother made the best turkey dinner I have ever eaten. My mom is a great cook when she puts her mind to it (I am not even counting the time she somehow used vanilla in place of soy sauce. ) My paternal grandfather was a chef in a pretty swanky hotel or two. My maternal granfather had three or four specialties, but none of us have ever been able to reproduce them. My mother-in-law is a terrific cook (her chocolate chip cookies suck, for some odd reason.) My sister makes fabulous meals. Even my three now-adult kids are great cooks.   We don't have to endure any bad meals. We're pretty lucky.
