It won't be 300 days, just until I can actually do it without pain. Dust dust dust!

Yes. Won't you say hello to my little friend?

TPBM still can't find that one little thing even though s/he knows he put it in that one specific spot so s/he could find it again. Wth? Gremlins?

Yep. 4 hours at the emergency vet hospital to discover it was too late for our furry baby (well, she was 17, so furry old lady might be better...)

I don't :( and to have one would be very difficult and actually selfish. ...sigh...

TPBM will give me advice about moving to California :)

I hate seasons, not a big fan of "weather" in general. There's a reason I live in SF, we have Coolish, Warmish and Wetish as our seasons, and they can all happen on the same day...

After growing up in Northern Michigan I certainly can't, especially around Christmas. And I hear this winter is supposed to be colder then last :shock:

Maybe one winter I will indulge my self and spend it diving Cayman Brac and eating Conch,

TPBM has never seen snow.

I wish, I need four seasons, hence I've shoveled more than my shar eover the years.

TPBM is ecstatic that it is Mallomar season (I damn near had an orgasm during my first bite of the season).

No, but a young lady gave me a pretty persuasive tangerine as I was completing the huge jigsaw puzzle on playa.

I never think about the germ potential until someone else points it out. Now, I rarely eat from the communal bowl because I have dietary restrictions that often prevent me from being able to eat what's offered in said bowl.

TPBM has no dietary restrictions limiting their caloric intake.

If you mean mandatory then you are right...if you mean voluntary then you are clearly wrong. I haven't been working out like I should be so I have to cut back on feeding my incredibly large, never full stomach.

TPBM doesn't know (nor care) about his/her BMI and knows it's a bunch of googly flock.
