Hi there! Greetings! Salutations! Hello! How are you? I am fine! Why do you ask?
I had a cup of coffee this afternoon (I generally only have two in the morning), and then went to Curves after work? And now? I have all of this energy? And so many topics to write about? That my brain exploded? What is it with all of the question marks anyway? See, I did it again? And again!
Someone brought in a "Gator" cake yesterday to celebrate the fabulous college football team that originates from sunny Florida. College football is really big around here. I'm not much of a dessert person but for some reason, I wanted a piece, so I had one. The problem is that the cake was dyed blue and orange, which are the colors of the Gators apparently. I'm not allowed to know things like this because my daughter is a Bulldogs fan. Red and black baby! All the way. Not only was the cake dyed, so was the icing. Did you know that orange and blue dye makes green when it's mixed up? There is a saying that what goes in must come out. Well, maybe I just made that up, but I found out today that it's true.
My husband went to Dr. Slice and Dice today for a regular check-up. He came home looking like the walking wounded. They performed electrodessication and curettage on two spots on his arm and sent them to the lab, and burned off a few others. Now, we wait. You know what? Waiting really sucks donkey toes. If it's that bad for me, I can't even imagine what it must be like for the World's Most Terrific Guy.
I was trying to upload some pictures to my blog and am getting an error again. I'm trying not to be frustrated. I'm not sure if I should change to another host, or change the platform I'm using (currently MT). This is getting out of hand and I'm a bit worried that I'm going to go belly up again.
This week's Blog Fodder question is a good one. I'm hoping that you folks will decide to participate, if only for this week. I'm not sure there is a correct answer to it. I've been thinking about how I am going to respond to it ever since I've posted it. I'll wait while you run over to check it out.
Hey! You're back! Glad to see you. I don't want to embarrass you but you have something stuck between your teeth. It looks blue. Did you have some of the Gator cake? Don't worry. Everything will come out ok in the end.
Carry on.
PS: Why does my spell checker tell me that “color” should be spelled “colour?”

Moogie - they wanted you to spell colour like that because they wanted you to spell it correctly! ;)

Yeah that's how us BRIT spell it, you know those that are meant to know proper ENGLISH as it were :P - sorry moogie dear couldn't resist
*hand moogie bat to smack MT with* Im betting it's a space issue can you check how much space you have "free" within your MT account, maybe try and do a little pruning here and there of images or your trying to upload it to the wrong place / with wrong User/Pass combo.

I wish benign results for WMTG.
I knew yellow & blue = green. orange = yellow & red. red & blue = purple, so I would've thought that orange & blue would give more of an aquamarine than a green. But - I thought everything "came out" brown. just sayin'
(sorry for the scatological humor. couldn't resist.)

oh, my. Positive vibes for WMTG...here's hoping all turns out well.
Really? Orange and blue? ...Now I kind of want to go home and dye something green... :)

Thanks for stopping by my blog earlier, I'm not much of a college football fan but I like a good piece of cake! Those food dyes seem to be getting stronger the last few years too. I've seen some unsettling things after eating a piece of a cake my work gave us to celebrate 13 million customers.

Mmmmm Cake! :-)
I hope to do the blog fodder this week sometime btw.
I hope the news from the docs is good for you poor hubby.

I think your spell checker is having a Canadian moment. We're addicted to our 'U's here in Canada. We like ewes, too. But they're not very practical in the burbs.
I had a mug of coffee - one of those gonormous Friends bowls - around 9 p.m. yesterday, and couldn't close my eyes till 2 a.m. Won't make that mistake again!
Good to e-see you again, Laura. I'm back on the road next week. I hate being away.

ok first things....step away from the coffee Moogie. Nice and easy and you won't get hurt! second, I have to admit that I'm slow or something because I could never figure out how to find the blog fodder subject on your blog. I kept going to the links on the right, but only found the list of participating bloggers and not the subject. Maybe I should have some of that coffee??
