Right now, that sounds like more fun than any of my guesses. Thanks for the explanation, Skootz. I didn't have my Canadian dictionary handy.

Right now I wonder if the linguist who mistakenly thought the "Eskimos" (Inuit) had 400 names for snow, was actually referring to the number of words Canadians have for beer.

Right now, my husband surprised me by coming home from work with a couple of New York steaks, some shrimp, salad and garlic bread for dinner. He's barbecuing as I speak. Isn't that sweet? (and also a nice bottle of Chardonnay!)

Right now the Worthless Hare (Rabbit) has got me wondering about Canadian snow and brown pops and the color of brown pops in Canadian snow, and well, it just went downhill from there.

Right now, I'm wondering if Eric Braeden had a few "brown pops" at the Daytime Emmys...

Right Now I saw a street person yesterday who had had so many brown pops, she could barely walk. This wouldn't be so shocking in San Francisco, but I am now living in a fairly small town. Usually the homeless people just get drunk in the woods.

Right now I'm so bored! Darren's off with his buddies playing cards, the kids are asleep and I have nothing to do, lol. My neighbors were out bbq'ing and sitting out front. They came and invited me over, but I don't like to leave the kids home alone. Even though I can see the front door from the driveway across the street, I'm worried if one of the kids got up they'd be scared not finding me here. I need to find something for me to do!

right now, mamie, that dinner sounds like it was great, but i would have to change the chardonnay to a good cabernet LOL right now, dd is at her prom...dd had to help get her ready as i had to work dd's shift at the golf course so she could go to the prom! had a great 20-hour vacation. the kershaw concert was great. we all got his latest CD, a phenomenal dinner which included filet mignon and chicken kiev for each guest, a private concert, and those of us lucky enough to catch on, got to take home the centerpieces which were crystal vases over 20 inches tall with beautiful sunflowers and greenery in them. it was also cool that i slipped out to the restroom and happened to hit 240 dollars on a dollar slot machine on my way back to the concert hall! not bad for putting in a tenner.

Right now sounds fun, Tabby! Yay on the $240! Juju, no housework needs done, lol. I've been working on a project for Caleb's birthday, but not much I can do for it, or rather, not much to do for it. I've still got at least an hour before Darren's home and I'm trying to figure out what else I could do for Caleb's birthday. Since I can't paint a dragon on his wall, I'm coming up with creative ideas for dragon pictures to hang on the walls. I've got a wood project (I took some scrap wood, sanded it down, stained it, then printed out dragon pics, cut them down to size, glued them on, and finally shalacked them) and I'm wondering if it's been too long since I did stained glass to give that a shot, lol. I'm thinking it'd probably be easier to go buy some posters, lol, but then what would I do with my spare time?

right now, i am wondering if wargod is a native californian? the 'needs done' reminds me of friends from ohio and pennsylvania. they say the lawn 'needs mowed', etc., rather than the lawn 'needs to be mowed'. i haven't heard this idiom from california natives, so was just wondering. i needs knowing!!

LOL, yes I'm a native Californian. My brain tends to run faster than my mouth and fingers though, lol. I leave out words all the time and speak in half sentences. Usually I won't notice unless I'm typing and go back to read what I said, then I'm amazed anyone can figure out what I'm talking about, since I blurt out half questions or statements all the time. Prime example, today Darren was telling me about a guy at work who got mad the other day and walked out. I said, "Fired?" Luckily he knew I was asking if the guy would get fired over it, but the look he gave me alerted me to the fact I could have phrased the question a little better, lol.

Right now I can totally related to War in messing up the words. I always type "you" when it's suppose to be "your". I think my brain is slicked over in that spot...LOL!! Oh!, go look at Tabbyking's folder - Prom pictures of her DD!!

Right now, yup Eggie, I miss letters too! The one that drives me battiest is that I know the difference between "there," "their," and "they're' but it never fails I'll type the wrong one. Right now it's 12:30 and Darren's still not home. I'm guessing he's winning or he'd have been home earlier, LOL.

Yesterday PussPuss brought to Daddy Colossus his first kill. A starling. Brought him right into the shop office, jumped up on Daddy's desk, dropped the bird and waited for his scratches. Daddy Colossus gave him scratches, called him a good hunter kitty and took the bird outside. We figured since this was the first time he'd done anything like that, it would be awhile before he tried it again. But yesterday PussPuss apparently realized he can be a food provider just like Daddy Colossus and apparently he liked the feeling. A few minutes ago PussPuss brought a chipmunk into the shop to give to Daddy Colossus for dinner. Only this time he didn't do such a good job killing it first. Right now Daddy Colossus is chasing PussPuss around the shop, and PussPuss is chasing the chipmunk that got away. Lordy lord lord jeebuz . . . I hope I get to see this on the videocam. PS right now I'm rooting for the chipmunk.

Right now I'm glad to report that the chipmunk got behind Daddy's computer desk where PussPuss couldn't get to him. Right now I'm sorry to report that Daddy could get to him with a golf club and he did. Right now Daddy Colossus is pissed because he's busting his butt trying to put his office back together while PussPuss is in the front hallway licking his paws and playing with his catnip. Welcome to "Cat Ownership, 101: Cattitude", honey. ROFL!! Poor little chipmunk.
