I had been tapering off these two during the run up to the election. Preferred listening to the Bullwark and Meidas Touch. Of course, I have always turned them off when Mika starts blathering about her vanity project. Tuned in this morning to see how they were handling the backlash. It appeared to me that there was more than usual tension between them. It seemed as if Mika had not been fully on board with making nice with DJT last weekend. It also seemed as if hypocrite Joe was back pedaling a bit and justifying his recent actions.

My family lived there longer ago than that. We had to make do with Guy Fawkes Day for an autumn holiday. Also, hamburgers and milkshakes were not available. The Wimpys and Whipsys at Blimpy were rough approximations.

Small Talk: Along the Hills of East Tennessee
Me from ME replied to Meredith Quill's topic in Bringing Up Bates
Speaking of annoying habits: my bf interrupts me to answer a question he THINKS (incorrectly) that I was in the process of asking. I've tried several things: "Yes, that's an interesting answer but not what I was in the process of asking", "If I may finish my question", as well as expressing that it bugged me at a different time both gently and angrily. The dilemma is that it is disruptive of good communication. -

Maybe someone "accidentally" forgot to send in a payment or three for the Tesla. -

May I just say... attractive couple...hideous light fixture? Jana and Steven seem to be such a real couple as opposed to the poseurs known as the Stew crew. -
My parents were married for many decades. Although they did have quarrels they remained devoted to each other. They had many hobbies and travelled the world together. When they were both placed in memory care they spent their days holding hands. After a few years Dad died and I cared for Mom during the last months of her life. We were able to return to the house that he had built for her when he first retired that they lovingly finished together. It was a blessing that she had a Cerebral hemorrhage one morning and passed on several days later in a hospital bed provided by hospice in her favorite room which was a sun filled sitting room adjacent to the kitchen with a view of the village in the valley below. It was a room in which she would do needlework every evening after she and Dad did the dishes and he would watch tv in the family room. Before Mom and I returned to that house I had motion sensors set all around the house to prevent burglary. There were many times the alarms went off and the monitoring company called the police to check for a break-in. Despite all the problem solving with the company every sensor was working properly and placed in such a way that a mouse could not have tripped it. Once we lived there we left for days at a time without any repeats of the alarms being tripped. It was almost as if Dad was looking for her. My brother was aware that she was failing but couldn't make the 3 hour drive. On the morning she passed I was awaiting the hospice nurse and called my brother's wife to tell her the news. I was at the kitchen sink looking out the window while on the telephone and I saw a large animal walk up the road, turn left at our driveway and walk down then, proceed around the cul-de-sac and pause. From the size and the ear tufts I determined that it was a Mountain Lion although I had never seen one in the wild, or, for that matter in that neighborhood. It paused long enough for me to take a photo before it walked on. I felt that it was Dad's spirit, coming to reunite with Mom. The afternoon that I had picked up her cremains was an overcast day. Back at the house I suddenly I noticed a bright glow and saw that the sun was shining from under the clouds reflecting on the opposite wall. I looked out the window over the valley and there was a double rainbow.

Season 12 Episode 10 - In Your Room

Yes, as usual she confuses posturing with actual dancing. -
Erin and Chad: Fifty Shades of Pink

If you are a paid member on the Board of Directors you can fulfill the meeting requirements during a family visit. Source: former sister-in-law and bother-in-law created a series of halfway houses in a State that was far away. They named a family member to the Board and wrote off all travel expenses when they came to visit. Not only that, the things they purchased while here were also business expenses. -
Her self-importance was so noticeable during this episode. It wasn't her job to make sure that Glen was in the wedding picture. And it sure as HE77 wasn't up to her to announce that he had been in the bathroom.

S12 Episode 8 - Who Let the Dogs Out
Me from ME replied to Yeah No's topic in My Big Fat Fabulous Life
Actually I know of two. During one of her sponsored cruises they both disrobed and had the photographer who was following her around capture a shot of them standing on her balcony facing the sea with their arms around each other's waists. That photograph was framed and hanging in her entryway. Or, as they say, "sun's out buns out". The other time may not have been on the show but possibly on one of her social media accounts. It was before Tal got sober and they filmed some kind of shenanigans while naked, under the influence, and loosely draped in sheets. Oh, yeah, they were in her closet. Since she has unhealthy thoughts about her Dad (the photo of him wearing a swimsuit that was on the ceiling over her bed) perhaps when he is gone someone similar will fill the "daddy void".) -
I just cannot with Symone. never watch the Weekend Show and when she is a guest I go to CNN. Same with Joy Reid. Both overuse their ties to their college sorority. I want information not a return to college social life. Right after Ari Melber's show I go right to CNN and usually stay until Anderson Cooper signs off.

Josie and Kelton: They Have Employable Skills

I actually like Nantucket Red, was just pointing out that he was dressing in a very upscale manner. Which, I guess you do when monetizing your social media feed. -

And now, on to the shorts. On my screen they appear to be none other than "Nantucket Red". Visit Nantucket and that color is ubiquitous amongst the upscale vacationers. -
S12 Episode 7 - Heaven is a Place on Earth
Me from ME replied to Yeah No's topic in My Big Fat Fabulous Life
Yeeesh. Same old narcissistic behaviors. Ask for advice and then immediately reject it. First example, she whined to her father that she didn't know where to go to meet men. He mentioned that he had seen a lot of men who seemed to be unattached at the last basketball game he had attended. Her response? "Waaaah, I don't like basketball". Jessica suggested to her that she should not be so picky and not to approach a first date with expectations that it would be a potential life mate. She dismissed it out of hand, as well as other comments her paid friends made to her. When leaving the flooring supply store her parting words to the manager: "if you have any friends who are single and good looking send them my way." I don't think she knows how relationships work. It's all about what SHE wants, that SHE wants someone waiting for her at home. Nary a word about shared activities or interests. Oh, one more thing that really bugged me. She described herself as having been Prom Queen. Anyone who has followed her story over the years knows that she was in the Court and NOT the Queen. The picture that was shown was not from the Prom, maybe a day after. As I recall the theatre kids may have nominated her as a joke on the cheerleaders and she left early before the crowning.- 39 replies
