Scattelogical ramblings and desultory humor - Part 12

Too late on that subject, Al. Did all the good jokes already.

I know it's a hopper - still want a mantis

I wonder how the mountain got its name

tried to catch one last week - too fast for me

Well, Al, whatever it is......I won't be sleeping without issues tonight!!

you did a good joke? I'll have to go back and look. **not enough desultory humour(what's up Dawn)**

let's ramble

I checked all the places we planted bulbs. So far, none have been disturbed.

Here is one for you, debilu

I forgot my book bag! Now I have to go home after work and get the bag before I can go to work again.

1st dentist visit crying kid what do I do???

Big-time bribery. Hopefully the dentist has experienced this many times and will have a number of approaches.

A big merry mantis thanks

I'm bringing him to a dentist that specializes in rug rats, get to the appt only to realize they told me the wrong time(thought I wrote it down wrong), they never called to confirm because they had my # wrong in their computer, now I know it wasn't my fault.
Sheesh.

Did your son get in for his appointment after all that, flowerjen? If so, I hope it went well.....I agree with Victor....this calls for big time bribery!!

So.... drowsy.... today....

Typing with one hand. Burned my thumb cooking dinner. Ouch!!!

Owie! What are we having?

Bandaids.

Ouch, Victor! Did you grab a hot pot handle, or what??? That smarts!

No, I was taking a dish out of the oven and the hot liquid splashed on my thumb. Immediately caused a blister.

ooooh, Victor....... What were you cooking??

Smoked pork chops.

Splash, crackle and pop!! Sorry to hear your thumb is out of commission for a bit. I hope you didn't swear in front of the boys!! LOL

No - it was all under my breath.

Eeeew. Do you have an aloe plant? I could drive some cuttings over to you. That smarts. Which hand do you write with? Which thumb got it?

I'm not allowed to play with knives due to too many accidents - I once dropped a butcher knife and it landed point down sticking straight up out of the floor an inch away from my toe.
hope you're ok by dinner time tomorrow!

Left thumb. I'm right-handed. Silvadene is better than aloe, but thanks Harper!

Thanks Deb!

Never heard of Silvadene. Well, at least it's your left thumb.

sucks on the home injury Victor - they always look so funny on TV though :)

Victor - is there a nurse/medical person in your life?

Thanks Al. I'll live.

Yes, Deb, though I did know about it on my own.

sorry - I'm a nurse, and am terrible at taking care of my own family - off duty kinda thing.....

Cold cereal for dinner tonight.

Cold cereal won't burn you!

being the cook in the family, I'm always in favor of cold cereal for dinner. sorry about the on-duty injury V.

I'm at work again. Sigh.

The seasons are askew!

How could we survive without ascii?
