This will be my yammerin' thread....

I wasn't trying to be funny....just different and yes...a lil' Canadian. Although I did eat caribou sandwhiches for lunches when I lived in Yellowknife. (tastes just like roast beef if you ask me!).

And, no....so there are no misunderstandings, (yeeesh Cloe!) I wouldn't realllllly eat a whole hind leg!! ewwww!!!

hehe.

I would love to have Ben & Jerry over for dinner too!!! (that's kinda like saying "do you wanna meet "Smith and Wesson"?....not that I have said that!).

Good resistance to temptation you have been showing Mandi. Yay!

Cloe.....well, don't beat yourself up, you were (are) going thru a difficult time with the evil teen!! Glad u are over the McFs though!!! The fill will likely help as well!

Okay, so I didn't have any more fudge today. We also went out for dinner and I had 2 eggs, 1 piece of bacon and 1/2 piece of toast with jam. (and about 5 of Mr. Yoda's fries). So, not too bad.

Oh, and bought a nice new lingerie set.....vewwwwwy vewwwwwy nice. I needed a new (smaller) one ....as that is what we take my monthly photos in.....*grinz*.....and ya'll wonder why I won't post my pics!!!!!!

:paranoid

Yoda, you are doing fantastic!

Never had caribou but I once had moose balls.

Now Wheezy....do you mean "meatballs" made out of moose meat or actual Moose testicles???!!!

(cause I just saw a show on prairie oysters (cow testicles) and ewwwwww!!!).

I had bear balls (not testicles....bear meatbals) once and I did NOT like those at all!! Very very very gamey tasting.

Blech.

Yeah that's what I meant, but I had you guessing. I heard about prairie oysters. Who would ever think, I wonder what cow testicles taste like? I think I will try some......

I had the moose meatballs in a spaghetti sauce. Couldn't tell the difference.

Bleh!!!

pictures, Yoda, pictures!!!!

Your from the Prairies Mandi....ever had them prairie oysters? I heard they are supposed to be realllllllly yummy...but I'd never try 'em unless I tried 'em thinking they were something else first!! Just the thought of it makes me wanna hurl!

..........................

aaaaaaah....leave it to you Cloe to come up with that icon!

LOL......It took me a while.

Hey we want to see a pic of you in the new lingerie!!!! Just put a bag on your head...LOL

Mr. Cloe's walking threw. He says he wants to see it too!!!

...Down Boy!!!!!

Lol

Sorry... I meant to reply to this earlier!

I have never, no! UGGGG!!!! I have never even seen them anywhere, except on tv, talking about them selling them at the Calgary Stampede. I just asked Dan, he's from Calgary... said he's never tried them or knows anyone who has! (he's lucky, cause he would not get any kisses, me knowing what he's had in HIS mouth! BLEH!!!!)

Okay, so I had today off work (federal gov't holiday for the 11th).

I got up bright and early (my day off!!!) to go to costco and get there 30 mins before it opened so that I could get my winter tires put on my car...thinking....how smart am I. Okay, well, much to my DISMAY, about 30,000 other people had the same idea this morning....despite my early arrival, there were already 25 people ahead of me in line. *SIGH*.

So, once they open, I snake my way through the line and get to the counter at 10:15 and I'm told it will be ready by 4:00. OMIGAWD>....I live too far away to just take a cab home (ie. nearby town) and so now I was STUCK. (I did have the foresight to bring a book, thinking I "might" have to wait 30 mins....but NOT over 6 hours!!!).

So, I called Mr Yoda (who did have to work today) thinking he would take pity on me, leave work and come get me to take me home. Nooooooooooooo. WTF????? He merely said, "go home and we'll try another time". But, c'mon, it will be like this ALL the time!!!! So, I called a friend who lives in the city to see if she could either take me home or I could hang with her but her phone was continuously busy for over 2 hrs (she has teens, so go figure!) and so I never got through.

So, not knowing what to do I just started reading my book. After 2 hrs, the guy took pity on me and asked me which car was mine. He then said it it would be ready by 1:30 instead of 4:00. Oh joy. (sarcasm). True to his word, I got it at 1:30, so I "only" had to wait for 4 hours!!!! GRrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. I got home by 2:00.

Okay....so the actual point of this is: I was now STARVING.....since I had my Breakfast (a few bites of toast) six hours earlier. So, on the way home, I thought how GREAT it would be to stop at Wendys and have a burger and fries; something I would likely have done pre-band days to soothe my frustration and anger of wasting all that time ON MY DAY OFF.....you know...make it all okay and worthwhile. (Keep in mind I haven't even had a bite of a burger since early April!). Anyways, I obviously did NOT stop at Wendys because I figured I would only be able to eat a few fries and that would be it.....so I came straight home. So, that is an NSV in itself.

BUT< when I got home I was so damn hungry I went straight for a bag of Salt & Vinegar chips that were in the house.....I ate maybe 4 chips (too fast) and felt icky (caught it in time though!) and then realized....okay...yeah, I have a band....I suppose thank god for the band. But on the other hand, I was thinking, "DAMN YOU DAMN BAND".

I'm a freak. I know it.

And now I have to try not to be pissed off at Mr Yoda when he gets home for not volunteering to come and get me earlier.

What a rough day.

SHADDDUP!!! I know it's all relative!!!! LOL....I mean, I KNOW I don't have a teenager driving me batty....(*hugs Cloe*) but it was still tough for me in it's own way.

By the way...did I mention that I froze my ass off literally on a cold slab of cement while I was waiting in the lobby area? Really...my ass is still sooooo cold......I'm gonna take a warm bath but I gotta wait for it (my ass) to warm up a bit or it will sting when it hits the water!!!

As much as I love Canada and being a Canadian I hate that we live in a climate that puts us through the damn tire changing season. Grrrrrr.

Okay, I vented (see Maria!!!) so I feel better now. I'm gonna go see if I can squeeze in one more chip now!

hehe

:guess

:wacko:Yes, yoda, you are a freak :laugh . Go unthaw your butt:bathbaby: you should take a glass of wine with you too.

Oh, and By the Way, if you still have that cold/flu thing goin on, this:Banane55: is suppose to do the trick. That is, according to my husband!!! But after today, maybe you'd feel better greating him like this !!

Gotta laugh, right?

LOL Cloe, you actually made me GUFFAW....not once, but twice!!!

Me thinks Mr Yoda and Mr Cloe are of the same mindset....remind me to never get those two together!

Yes, I am still fighting this cold/flu thingy....(another reason why I probably have no patience lately and this Costco tire thing rattled me)....if I STILL haven't shaken it by the end of this week (which will make it 2 weeks) I'll go see a quack about it.

Speaking of quack....how did you know I have a rubber ducky in my tub?? (I have two, actually....and a third one that lights up and changes colours in the water....that one is Mr Yoda's though!!).

Yes people, we have NO kids......what's your point??!! Adults can have rubber duckys toooooooo!

Alright, I am heading to the tub now to thaw my butt and to calm my fiery red-headed Irish temper down before Mr Yoda walks in the door; not fair to him to take it out on him.
