Lol, that’s soooo cute!. Sometimes I swear, some critters seem to deliberately pose for the cameras. That must be his good side. :)
It is.
Well, I WAS thinking whitewater rafting, but it is looking like it is going to be August before I do Colorado. The kids are planning to come here in June, and knowing that I will be tapped out when they leave, it doesn’t make sense to try and plan a trip out there immediately afterward. Rafting is no good in August.
Must be something in the air. I’ve been eating like a little piggy the past few days.
Right now all I’m buying is food and fuel.

<- sweetlibertyKOCHANSKI Oh, that’s it. We’re fried. Unless someone’s got some really *terrific* sunblock cream.
KRYTEN Not necessarily, ma’am. I excluded the doors from the shutdown override.
[KRYTEN walks over to the door on the other side of the small room]
KRYTEN In case...
[KRYTEN presses on the control panel and the doors whir open]
KRYTEN [whining] Anything happened...
CAT You mean we spent the night crawling through one end of this ship to God knows where and back for absolutely no reason??
LISTER It was all pointless? You put me through that *nightmare* when we could just walk out that door at any moment??
KRYTEN [in tears] Mm.
LISTER Well, if you’ll excuse us, we’ve got some serious reversing to do - but we’ll talk about this, over a cup of coffee, and a hot branding iron...
[Exit LISTER, CAT]
KOCHANSKI [brightly] Well, ‘night.
KRYTEN Aren’t you mad too, ma’am?
[KOCHANSKI shakes her head and smiles sweetly]
KRYTEN You’re not, are you.
[She shakes her head]
KRYTEN I think I understand: For you, the trek through the ducts was far from pointless. It was an emotional journey where you gleaned invaluable insights into your crewmates. This was your ‘rites of passage’; you feel enriched, wiser, and somehow bonded by this in a way that... you never thought possible. Am I right?
[While KRYTEN was pretentiously expounding theories, KOCHANSKI has surreptitiously armed herself with her trusty pipe-bashing spanner]
KOCHANSKI Say - ‘nurieek’.
KRYTEN ‘Nurieek’.
[KOCHANSKI whips out the spanner and raps KRYTEN smartly over the head]
KRYTEN Oof.
KOCHANSKI Say ‘rotut’.
KRYTEN ‘Rotut’.
[Again the spanner flies, resulting in a satisfying ‘clang’ of metal against metal]
KRYTEN Ooh.
KOCHANSKI Say ‘hernunger’.
KRYTEN Er, ‘hernunger’.
[Clang]
KOCHANSKI ‘Nurieek’.
KRYTEN ‘Nurieek’.
[Clang]
KOCHANSKI ‘Rotut’.
KRYTEN ‘Rotut’.
[Clang]
KOCHANSKI ‘Hernunger’.
KRYTEN ‘Hernunger’.
[Clang]
KOCHANSKI ‘Sqweloookal’.
KRYTEN ‘Sqweloookal’.
[Clang]
KOCHANSKI ‘Rotut’.
KRYTEN Oohh! ‘Rotut’.
[Clang]
KOCHANSKI ‘Nurieek’.
KRYTEN Ooh! ‘Nurieek’.
[Clang]
KOCHANSKI ‘Hernunger’.
KRYTEN ‘Hernunger’.
[Clang]
KOCHANSKI ‘Sqweloookal’.
KRYTEN ‘Sqweloookal’.
[Clang]
KOCHANSKI ‘Nurieek’!
KRYTEN ‘Nurieek’.
[Clang]
[Sound and picture begin to fade]
KOCHANSKI ‘Rotut’!
KRYTEN ‘Rotut’.
[Clang]
KOCHANSKI ‘Hernunger’!
Nothing wrong with treating yourself once in awhile, Sweets.
But what is it with shoes that you can’t resist? All I need are a good pair of sneakers, comfy sandals and a pair of black heels, just in case. I’m beginning to think you’ve got a foot fetish. ;)
I’m crossing my fingers for your Colorado vacation. You’ve worked hard for it!
You may be eating like a piggy, but still as cute as a prairie dog! :)
Derly, I'm afraid it is YOU who is out of the ordinary here. There's something in the genes of most of us wimmin that requires us to buy shoes....lots of shoes. It's therapeutic somehow. I don't get it either. I almost never wear sneakers; well, except to work out. As soon as the weather starts getting warm in the spring, I wear nothing but open toed shoes until it becomes conspicuously inappropriate in the fall. I'm so short, I'm more inclined to wear things that add a little height. For any kind of regular wear, they have to be comfortable though. For everyday work wear with jeans, a comfortable, brown wedge sandal is the staple. I have some of similar style in different colors for when brown doesn't work with what I'm wearing. I have to have some dressier shoes for court and church, and obviously, there isn't one basic that goes with the different outfits I wear. Besides, shoes are fun, especially summer shoes. And you can't really be considered to have a foot fetish unless you own at least one pair each of red and navy blue shoes...which I don't ...although I do have fuschia and mauve.
This from a wood eating, drizzle loving rodent?????
No shame...
:-)
Perhaps we'd better ask Catpuppy, our resident expert on wimmin, for an analysis of Derly's lack of the shoe acquisition gene.
Cunning little blue veined feet twinkling in the sand...
I don’t even want to see your closet. Sounds like Mount Ve*shoe*vius could blow anytime now. ;)
