My skeleton doesn't weigh 110!

Good afternoon, my Viking friends,

So I decided to stay and work from home today, to avoid all the wind and rain predicted for this afternoon.

Tiny bit of drizzle this morning, then almost sunny, a bit of swaying of trees right now. but nothing scary at all. Well, that is just fine with me, and I saved myself 1 1/2 hours of commuting and $10 in tolls and expenses.

I am however, really working!!!!!!!!! Fricking (sorry Frick) forecast due tomorrow.

Maelstrom to all!

Grammy ~ you slay me. Muchly.

Horsey ~ you know how absolutely thrilled I am to talk with you! I wish I could be there to ride EE with you. Sadly, that shall be another day for us.

Brandt ~ I could never put you on ignore

UM ~ and which closet do you keep that skeleton in? Do tell!!!!!

Speaking of skeletons ~
So, I had to go home for a late lunch b/c the cable company was coming to put in voice over IP for us, so I can stop paying an arm and a leg each month (I have no limbs anymore) to Alltel for fairly pufferish service. Anywho. While home I discovered that my dear darling oh-so-deeply loved hubby and I might have a teensy weensy communication problem. A trust issue even. Perhaps.

You see, I found a stash underneath a dresser in his office.

WAIT!!!! All of you are thinking the worst of him. Not that kind of stash. He doesn't need kniT to give him a good talking to or anything.

No.

The stash was GREEN.

NO!!!!!!!!

Not that kind of stash either. It was the good kind of green. The kind people would LOVE to find just lying around. Yup. That kind. Hidden away instead of in a secure location like it belongs. (Like, say, my bank account. Except the hubby might consider that my access to it makes it less than secure. And he might be right.)

Let me just say. I now know how he was going to pay for that new camera he TRIED to order for me that I made him cancel b/c we didn't have the money.

It was a big stash.

Big.

Healthy.

Okay. Everyone say it with me: "Disney Spending Money"

Oh yeah baby!

So then I called him and asked if he was planning on leaving me anytime soon, because I needed to call the locksmith if he was.

Freaked him out.

The teensiest bit.

Sort of like the stash did to me.

Anyone else find anything interesting at lunch?

Wow!! I wish I'd find some money hidden in our house. What exactly was his reasoning for the "hidden stash"? Like you say, regardless of what it WAS for, it is NOW spending money! Woo Hoo!

I did not find anything exciting at lunch. Except some yummy meeting leftovers in the kitchen. I ate only the good stuff (salad and some grilled meat. No desserts. No bread). But it WAS a free lunch, so I'm not complaining!!

I have been sitting in front of my computer way too much today. (And not just DISing. I've been working too.) I need some exercise! (Gee, maybe I should go to the gym. There's a novel idea!!)

SweetKitty, I think you really meant IP, as in VOIP (Voice over Internet Protocol)

Also, how did hubby manage to accumulate said stash without you knowing about it? Are you giving him too much lunch money?

Yep, there's one in every crowd... blockhead, ****, ****y, cretin, dimwit, donkey, dork, dumb ox, dumbbell, dunce, dunderhead, fool, halfwit, ignoramus, imbecile, *******, jerk, kook*, meathead, moron, nincompoop, ninny*, nitwit, pinhead*, pointy head, simpleton, stupid, tomfool, twit*, yo-yo take your pick, they all fit the bill.

Minnie~ These kind of people make me cherish the friends I choose to surround myself with.

Minnie, it seems the offens-er didn't care to back up their original opinion. Both responses pulled from the thread because they didn't want to get PM'd. I believe there may have been a case of type first/think later.

Can I come back and play with you guys?

The kids will be back to school next Tues.

I won't have to be a lifeguard as much.

I'm not having that much fun on the TR Board, today.

So... can an old Maelstromer learn some new tricks?

Around here?


Mel.

P.S. Grammy... I am DED. Sew your head to your legs!!!!

 

[GeorgiaAristocat]

Joe - you are, of course, correct.

See, all he had me do was show up for the appointment and assure me that our home phone would still work.

Said money was accumulated by him by selling . . . stuff. That he certainly doesn't need. And apparently didn't want any more. Surplus. Gun related. All of it.

Remember. He's in the business. No flames please.

It's his money, so he gets to spend it how he wishes. He actually mentioned saving for a future computer purchase. He might get to do that. If I ever tell him where it is NOW stashed.

It certainly makes me feel more comfortable with saying that any money I make from selling stuff from the house, kids clothes, toys, etc becomes MINE though.

Since he's keeping his.

Welcome Back Mellllllly!

I see you have a new friend on your trippie...I think it's Z posting from Sher's batphone...cause she's missing today too.
Like I told Minnie above...

[1000thhappyhaunt]

Maybe they went to WDW... together!!!

Heh heh.

Now she probably knows his real name. And the size of his wallet.

She'll be sorely disappointed when she realizes she has to fund the trip for ALL of them.

And... he'll win another BATTLE for HIS WALLET.


Well... I mean... he'll FINALLY win the battle.


Got any more pics of Gary? Lyin' around? I could use a Gary-fix.

now.

GeorgiaAristocat- My skeleton is hiding in a closet that looks VERY much like an almost 39 yr old (on 9/13 ) stetched out, fake tanned, 30 pound overweight suburban housewife who used to be a hair colorist in a "she-she" hair salon who now has no life other than throw food at her kids if their lucky and pack for wdw. AND read the DIS. And eat protein. And wish it were doughnuts.

Mel ~
I have never told you . . .

Some time ago I came across a whole stash of magnets at the Goodwill (brand new in packaging, probably from Target).

Anyway, being the cheapskate that I am, I bought them to include as nifty's for the kids at some point. A lot. They were cheap. 25 cents or something like that. And all kids love magnets, so, why not? thought I.

BUT, one of them is for "Mel's Diner" in sort of an art deco type of design. I immediately thought of you. I was even considering bringing it to the meet to give to you. Since I would never ask for your address knowing how your hubby feels about that and all.

But now you're not coming.

So, I guess I will take it out of it's package and let my boy put it on our (covered with magnets) fridge. And I'll still think of you each time I see it.

You are correct when you say that this crazy bunch of vikings is going to be with me in my brain for my upcoming trip. They will.

But.

I confess.

I sort of like Maelstrom.

Go ahead. Try to throw me overboard. It won't work. Grammy needs me to sew her together.

 

[1000thhappyhaunt]

Now I'm REALLY wolley.

I REALLY want to go to the Meet. REALLY BADLY.

And meet all you wonderful crazies.

Instead... I am staying home. And adding mcreste to my Buddy List. Apparently.


Nice one! About the magnet. Please put it on your fridge.

Either that or... save it for later. I KNOW I have to figure out a way to hook up with all you guys. Sometime.

I'm working on DH.

Mel.

Welcome to the newbie - happyhaunt is it? My son Wesley loves that ride - we do too as a matter of fact. We bought the Magic Kingdom game from Toys r Us and he always wants to draw the Haunted Mansion for one of his cards.

Anyway, just thought I would say welcome!

Blessings!

Thanks BAYBEEE!

I've missed you and Rhonda too. And alot of people.

I know what you mean tho. Two places is a lot of work.

Which was why with the kidlets home for the summer I had to ease up on the Dising a bit.

But... I mentioned you on my latest blog entry. Rhonda too. You should read it.


Heh heh.


Oh... my name is Mel. Remember?
