Oh my. White lightnin’ indeed!
Nope. Maybe Wednesday?
That sounds hopeful! LOL!
I love looking at the snow on the mountains from where I am. ;o]
I had a conversation with Anoreth about “War and Peace” and “Anna Karenina.”
Claiming that one’s present actions are a reaction to previous conditions is common. When I first met DP, he claimed that the reason his apartment was filthy was because he’d had to keep things clean when he lived in barracks. I told him that was infantile.
Yes, I went through that with Igor. I asked him one day why he left his clothes on the floor, expecting me to pick them up, citing his long navy career (30 years) as evidence that he knew how to clean up after himself.
His response? “I know, but I’m not in the navy any more am I?” My reply, “No, and I’m not your mother, am I?”
His daughter’s response to my comment was just as lame as his was, all those years ago. But she’s the one that will suffer in the coming years because of all those piercings, I have no doubt. None of that will go with her in the Eternities.
The girls are back from their camping trip. Elen sprained her ankle.
I’n’t that Nevada Southern or do they call the museum something different than the railroad?
(I know the state owns it anyway so they can call it anything they want.. :-)
There’s Nevada Northern RR up North (quite) a ways (in Ely). They have a resident roundhouse cat. (Your RR trivia for the day.)
The cat's name - Dirt.
I don’t suppose they’re going to pop him into a bath ...
What a coincidence! That's the same thing we named our planet!
Soil, Bob. It’s soil.
Umm..
They don’t volunteer that information..
I doubt they have death wishes.
I was in Boulder City October 18th, 2004.
Overnighted at the Quality Inn there on Ville Dr. off Hwy93 on the way to the dam and points East.
There isn’t much to it, but it’s there. The local Timet (Titanium Metals) plant sends a train within 75’ of my apartment twice, every Wednesday, so I never get lonely for the trains. :o]
Poor Elen. I hope it isn’t a bad sprain.
I sprained my ankle the summer I was about 11, but since then all I’ve done is torn the ligament in my left ankle, and chipped a bone in my right ankle. Both left me bruised to my knees.
Boulder City is such a nice little town. I think I was in Tucson that year. Or maybe I was still in Del Rio...
Anyway, I’m here for now, but within three months will be moved north and east. :o])
Kitteh looks like, “Whtchoodoin’ in my space?”
It’s morning here, but won’t be light for a couple of hours. I feel like death warmed over this morning. But I have days like that, so it shouldn’t be surprising.
My attention span is really short this morning. I got side-tracked again and went off doing something else, then coming back to see that I didn’t post this. *sigh*
I think the kitten is going to pounce.
Elen’s ankle isn’t too bad, but it will give her an excuse to avoid the gym for several days.
