hmmmm...

Perhaps we are on to something!

Anyone else have a dentist that never seems to get any older?

I am gonna pinch him I think, the next time I go in. See if he has real skin.

Good Morning!

I think you would stand out like a sore thumb in that outfit hunting the Talis....

Good point...but I'd be at home in the Philippines...Lordknows I spent enough time in the jungles down there trackin'NPA... The desert is much more dfficult...you use the terrain to mask your movement whenever possible, or move at night...

Got any WD-40?

I got it, with a little more determination.

Really, Suz, who in their right mind paints over "some" of their cabinet hardware...like the hinges and stuff... Even if you don't want to bother taking it off, it's so easy to slap a piece of masking tape over it! But no, the people that painted the bathroom this ungodly shade of green just slapped that green paint right onto the hinges!

I took them all apart and soaked the hinges in paint remover. They look so nice and actually function correctly now.

It's coming along slow but surely in there. I've painted everything I can reach with primer, Steve needs to come in and do along the ceiling. We should start painting the final color on tonight. Then we're going to my folks house while Steve does the floor. It has to be leveled out before the linoleum can be laid...takes about 12 hours.

I'm happy to have him, alien or not. Anyone that has had dealings with some of the...umm...well, less talented of the military dentists learns to appreciate "real" dentists!

The only problem I have with mine is that he likes to talk...and not just the usual asking you questions while your mouth is full. He kind of goes off reminiscing while gesturing with his tools...meanwhile you're a captive audience because you're flat on your back with a mouthful of gauze and can't even reply!

Though at this point I'm used to it...I've been going to him for more than twenty years.

I need to buy paint for my bedroom and office...everything seems to be on sale now, so even if I don't get to it right away, I'll at least have it on hand. Picking colors is soooo hard, though! I hate to just go with off-white. So far I'm pretty much decided on pale yellow for the bedroom and pale blue for the office, but actually picking SHADES is tough...I have multiple sample strips that I've had in my purse for MONTHS planning to pick one shade and go buy the stuff, but I get stuck.

When I was learning to fly in Eastern Washington, which is practically desert in places, the National Guard would often be camping on the outskirts of the airport property practicing something or another, and from the ground you could see the tents, and their trucks. Then they put those big desert camouflage *tarps* draping everything, and they disappeared. At least, thy disappeared if you didn't know that there weren't really mounds and rocks there. Especially from the air. They just disappeared.

Is it possible he is some kinda alien droid, doing some kind of study, or planting some wicked device in everyone's mouth?

Girl, I think you need to go back to bed! You're having hallucinations! LOL!

Sounds like they had about as much sense as they had taste in colors!

at least you'll be outside today...

Yeah, yeah, I'm on the way out. I'm glad I waited until today, though. It is much cooler than yesterday, and it rained last night so the ground is damp so I can get the old grass up more easily. Going now... no really, I am!

Good morning everyone!

I've just arrived and wanted to share second breakfast (or first for those west of me)!!

Today's menu contains eggs (prepared any way you like), a rasher of bacon or more, a large wedge of cheese, fresh bread, berries of all sorts and, of course, sauteed mushrooms!

For the dwarves I've brought beef ribs, seeing as they all like to eat "red meat off the bone". :)
