9214 - Friday!

[scottobear]

Weekend looms ahead! Going to Alice's party, celebrating her passing the bar... about a year ago. It'll be nice to see her again - last time was at paper moon well over a year ago.

The Egg salad made from last Sunday's hard-boiled Easter dye-jobs was especially good this week. BHK's Mac & cheese is rocking my socks exceptionally well, too.

I can't believe that tickets fro the Smothers brothers is $90 at the rams head. I want to go, but not so much at $200, 8pm on a weeknight. I still have half a mind to write in Pat Paulson for president, even though he passed away over a decade ago.

50 things you've done meme continues at 44 - I...

44.'have done more than my share of critter killing and eating, despite my current feelings about doing so. If I was starving to death on an island covered with baby bunnies... well, baby bunny for dinner. I know how to kill and dress duck, boar, deer (all hands-on) and squirrel, alligator, rabbit (in theory, I saw my dad do it). I have lopped the heads off of chickens, and wrung their necks, too. I'd still rather do the slaughtering of a bird than do the cleaning.

I'm very happy to say that I haven't wanted or had to do that for a *very* long time... but if I was lost in the wilderness, I feel that I could survive better than some, at least food-wise. The boar is something that I'd have to use high-powered rounds on... those guys are nasty. I wonder if I could do a pit trap for a pig? I suppose it'd work, not that I ever will need one.

Recent photos in phone or in archive -

My office desk (see notes here, for the OCD aspects of the journal),
with BHK memorabilia and a toy-train zoom-in



I love my coasters - made from the label portion of old 33 1/3 records.



Newt Yawing the other day - That's how I was feeling, too.

Recently, Pye waited politely for Newton to finish eating - very chummy these days. I'm glad that they're so much more buddy-buddy. All I ask is that nobody bugs anyone else while eating or pooping... not too hard! Newt actually gave ol' pye a one-lick after pye's bath yesterday... I imagine they'll be grooming one another sometime around 2012. (or sooner!)

Added a doodle to the voice post... not sure if it's worth 1000 words, though.

Did you take those coasters to work from home? I don't remember them. What records are they? I see a Johnny Mathis one!

[scottobear.livejournal.com]

nope - they were grandfathered to me by RW when he left, same with the train.

I've got - Judy Lynn with Benny Barnes, Scott Carter, Slave, Bobby King, Christmas with Kate Smith, and Johnny Mathis sings Bacharach and Kaempfert.

Not seen, is molecule squishyball in the skull mug.

For me cleaning birds or fish is much preferable to mammals which it looks like our family has stopped eating at home except for products like egg/dairy/broth. Anyways if I were on an island I don't see me starving as long as I was able to fashion some sort of nets of plant fiber and dig for tubers.

The fifty things you've done meme looks interesting. I can think of twenty things right off that I've done. Writing about them is yet another thing altogether! LOL Always enjoy reading your journaling.

I didn't have too much trouble at first, but now that I'm in the mid-40s on my list, only one or two get done at a time... those are more meaty, though, too.

Fish are much easier / preferable to clean than a deer, for sure!

Thank you... I like your journal, too!

Teehee. Well, now I'm so not going to post the photo I took of the Smother's Brother's marquee in Vegas. I was gonna make fun of 'em. But in a nice way. :D
