Oh, and I have another on Tuesday morning, how ’bout that!

FWDiva

Two different jobs.
Got an unexpected email on Thurs from a position I applied for at the UW. Not my first choice, but I’m in no position to be picky. It was nice to get contacted, that’s for sure.

FWDiva

woohoo – two is better than one funnyd

Best luck tomorrow, FWHD.

hey loohoo – how’s socal tonight?

Doing fine. Thanks.

Did you say you’ve got l’il Token on diet food?

AND THE KILLIN’ GOEZ ON AND ON AND…

Citizen Suzanne and the Firepup Freedom Fighters:

Ah sweet Sister Suzanne, more great music and surcease of sorrow…keep the music hot and the dancin’ hotter!

KEEP TJHE FAITH AND PASS THE AMMUNITION, THIS WAR BELONGS TO US NOW!!

hey norske – thought this video might make ya de-lurk

yup – he put on 2 lbs – which to a little guy is 20% weight gain. he’s learning to like the diet dog food.

Citizen Funnydiva2002:

Is that “UW” Wshington or Wisconsin?

Washington.

There is no “R” in washington, but there is an a…/snark

FWDiva

Citizen Suzanne:

They surely don’t make music like that anymore…keep it up darlin’ and maybe ”to sleep, perchance to dream.”

Great find my dear, I loved it.

Heya Norske!
Long time no see my man, didja finally retire and how is that little Grand baby?

saw a pbs motown special this past week – an hour all about motown music 1964 to 1971 iirc. some great forking tunes that started the search that lead me to this video.

hey busted – how’s your side of the river

Suz! That vid was FUN XD I loved all the vocal stylings of the groups and how they differed. Sadly, actual doo-wop groups are a rare breed nowadays. I dont’ think i saw this particular show as a kidlet but the clip is great to see now.

I’m all moved in, i haz the intarnets back! Now to just organize everything now that i have my DJ setup in place.

Citizen Funnydiva2002:

Well dear, maybe spellin’ and proofreadin’ will getchu hired.

hey alias – woohoo – good news

hahahahaha see you are in fine form tonight dear

Oh, you know, Same ol’, same ol‘.

hahahahaha busted – i expected nothing less

Citizen Bustednuckles:

Yo Brother ‘nuckles, I am “retired” (since June 1) and scheduled for cataract surgery and inguinal hernia repair…the moment I retired my misspent youth started catchin up with me. And all three grandbabies are cookin’!

oh noz norske – when do ya have the surgeries?

Ahh but it is good to see ya again.

Good luck and God Bless.

Yay SUZ! That was great. This has been pretty depressing lately, the news I mean, so this was what the doctor ordered.

Funny, break a leg honey!

hey margot – how’s ohio tonight?

It’s happened before.
Though the bio-pharma i’m interviewing with pulled my res because of skillz I started picking up, like, 20 years ago.
Aaaaand, suddenly I feel a little old.

No offense, Norske. Just yanking your chain.

FWDiva

I want to move where there is a greater amount of smart people. Not so many teabaggers on trucker crank.

still yearning for new mexico margot?

yes.

I learned from a friend there that cops know from heavy fingerprints that someone’s on meth…her friend was robbed, and the police said the prints indicated meth users did the robbery.
Is this well known? Interesting. Meth causes them to sweat a lot ->heavy fingerprints.

i’ve not heard that before margot – its been 5 years since i retired and i was on light duty at the end — not working the streets and lifting prints at scenes. i’ve heard some say that prints that ‘pop’ up quickly mean they are fresh – others have said that meant they were sweaty. i do know that lotsa sweat tends to blur and streak prints

shit – the guy from portland lost the hgtv design star — tonight was the final.

geez, my guilty confession about watching home decorating shows killed the thread

We are all still in shock! I must confess to watching home improvement shows and those nasty murder programs. I watch this program called “Snapped”. Crazy.

And my sister has a fascination with Ted Bundy. What can I say. We are from New Orleans.

hahahahaha hey mary mcc – how’s sac tonight?

tap tap tap….
Is this thing still on?

It was fricking cold outside today. Well, not cold but in the high 70’s. It was great.

looks like it is just me and you mary

sac in the 70s is prime stuff – walking along the river… smell of bbq

and it rained a little. I was really surprised that not many people were at the river today. But there was an air show going on down the street.

Well, this was 3rd hand from a friend, not from the cop at the scene, so I’m not sure. Maybe it’s acidic or something…have to look it up.

that first rain of the season always freaks ca folk out iirc. they forget how to drive in it much less walk in it.

Had my big dog on homemade diet food – a recipe from my vet (said it originated with the military). Hamburger stewed in a big pot with canned veggies, a small quantity of dry food and lots of water. Was thickened with gelatin and served cold. Stuff looked and smelled good.

The weight fell off of her – she loved it and wasn’t thrilled to return to the dry stuff. May have been told it wasn’t an appropriate long-term diet, don’t recall. There was a sense of urgency about the diet because of her hips.

It’s still freakin’ hot here but I have to do that work thing again.
Gnite ladies.

THUD.

and my knowledge is old – they could have figured something like that out between my then and now.

g’thud busted – smooches

token hates all dog food. he wants people food. got spoiled by naomi’s cooking when he was being dog watched.

he’s finally eating the science diet canned dog food but still spits out the dry. i swear, there is kibble bits on the mat and in a circle around his dish where he spits them out.

I made kitty and doggie food for years. I was really dedicated to it after the melamine scandal. But I found this great dog food (kitties are gone). It is called Orijen and is from Canada. All biologically appropriate.

You know what’s funny?
It’s kinda the same HERE. I mean, Seattle? RYGTBFKM!
And nevermind if we get snow that sticks a few days.

FWDiva

Rain in California is a miracle. And suddenly, you are getting flooded. Sacramento is in greater danger of flooding than New Orleans was. I live in the beginning of the foot hills at 90 feet above sea level so I am ok.

he’s been on science diet since he was 8 weeks old. is what the vet recommended as a puppy and again as an adult.

how hard is it to make and keep dog food?

Just like people food and you don’t have to make much for Token. I have recipes from the vet school in Davis if you want them.

the sac and central valley levee system is totally forked up and needing major overhaul and repair. good to know where you are on the flood plain just in case…

i’d be interesting in taking a gander at em mary if you don’t mind emailing them.

Jeez, I’ll have to try that.
I taught my dog to sit up and beg today, using a Slim Jim kind of dog treat. Took about an hour.

Here is the book. Home-Prepared Dog and Cat Diets by Donald R. Strombeck
This guy was professor emeritus university of davis veterinary school. I got it from my vet when Wally got diabetes.

Haha!
I’ve taught my CAT to sit up for his tuna. It’s so cute!

And Token loves Pupperoni, right, Suz?

FWDiva

the only food that token is not suspicious of (and wants as rewards) are those pupperoni thingies. they are kinda like slim jims

sunny – do you still have that diet recipe?

i’ll look for it. he sees the vet again a week from monday for his second dental vaccine shot.

I am off to bed. See you tomorrow. Night.

We regularly hitched to class in college relying on our instincts. Bundy would have passed most people’s smell test. Fascinating – in a creepy way..

g’nite mary

ann rule’s book the stranger beside me was a fascinating look at bundy.

Well, pups
I gotta get ready for beddy-byes, too. Big day tomorrow!
Thanks for the company and all the good wishes.
FWDiva

My cat is messy with the dry. Last summer he drew ants.. now I pay more attention.

fingers and toes crossed for ya funny d – g’nite

bailey is pretty good about keeping her mess to her mat. makes for easy cleanup. token, token i have to get out the broom.

Been a long time. Looked for it online a while back and saw nothing like it. Can probably reconstruct it close enough.. I’ll work on it overnight.

IIRC, the secret was that veggies go right through dogs.. satisfaction but no nutrition. Same with the gelatin I think.

thanks sunny

guess it is about time for me to mosey on down the road. g’nite all and thank you for all the conversations tonight.
