Yeah, that’s a bummer, but I definitely spotted whatsisname who plays the brother in the trailer and he was good comic relief. And of course Brendan Fraser is very... entertaining.

Which one of you lives near Overland Park? Somebody needs to hunt down this lady and whack her with a fish.

All animals have personalities. All of them...even our doofy chickens that are not the sharpest tacks have personalities, if you bother to pay attention (which with the sheer numbers is easy not to, but not totally impossible.) Not to mention Benny Hen, who I believe related to me on the same level as a puppy.

You either have to come to terms with this and go on or become a vegetarian.

It’s why Steve and I want so badly to raise our own meat! At least we’ll know that the animals were aware of decent treatment.

Did you push the primer bulb? Jen always forgets that.

Never mind. Saw the other post.

Is it time to go home yet?

Yes, I think you should go home. And mow the lawn. Over lunch. *Glare*

I just forgot once...

Can’t we just whack her with a rabbit instead?

Well I agree that rabbits aren’t poultry...

he new Mummy movie will probably be fun, too, though I’m bummed that Rachel Weisz isn’t in it.

I am, too. I liked the chemistry between her and Brendan Fraser. Maybe she wasn't availble when it was going to be filmed.

I loved her role in the movie Constantine.

Yeah, the Briggs and Stratton Ready Start system doesn’t have a choke or a primer or anything. And it always starts by the second pull (riiiiiight!) LSA

I guess we have the Briggs and Stratton ‘maybe’ start system. Usually starts on the first pull if you pushed the primer the requisite 3 times.

No, they're not poultry...but you couldn't tell the difference once they're cooked in a casserole.

Here's the remaining babies...Our Rose's babies. Hyacinth's all died, you know.

I'm off to work.

I guess I will leave them their thread. I was about to recommend adding PetFinder for those interested in the 'wild dogs' method of child raising. Is it time to go home yet?

Yep. Matthew will be thirteen in about three weeks. I can hardly believe he’s going to be a teenager! He’s got a mustache! Sometimes when he speaks it startles me badly because I think “ACK! Who’s that MAN talking in the house!” His voice is very deep!

He’s so much fun, Dan...so much fun! He drives to the church now and then drives around in the parking lot and then drives back. Today he said he wanted a pizza...so I told him he could order one. He called Dominos (it’s programmed into his cell phone) and ordered one of their six dollar pizzas. Later on he was walking down the hall with the pizza on a plate and said “It’s a good thing you went back to work, now that I know how to order pizza.” He was completely serious but I couldn’t help but laugh!

BTW, I got cancelled. Census went down at the hospital. That’s ok because I’d worked extra on Monday for my base pay plus $10 extra per hour due to it being a critical staffing need.

So Monday I got paid about $42 an hour. Schweet.
