Omitting to consort with one's fellow human beings? That's the one I usually rely on. I'd like to hear your program.
By the way, I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings or insult anyone, or suck up to the croquettes, because, look where that's gotten me, nowhere! But I must say that pretty much any one of the croquettes is better looking than any of the croqs. Of course, I may be prejudiced.

Hubby called a little while ago - I won't be getting a new digital camera anytime soon - he informed me he has a puppy in the back of his car!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That's all I know - I'll know more in 25 minutes or so - but then we have to immediately leave to pick up Jax - so you will all remain in suspense until at least 6:30!!!!

ONE day I am going to learn to stay AWAY from the abortion threads. It will save me many tissues. If any of you ever see me on one again, please proceed to hunt me down and kick my a$$.

He couldn't - about 5 miles south of where he called me from his cell phone goes into a dead zone.
If he's not here in the next 10 minutes I'm screwed, because that means I;ll have to drive to pick up the kidlet and the sky tells me there are more storms heading this way - I've had ENOUGH of driving in the rain today.
