Morning all!



Dear Tinkle Girl-

See this? This is my coffee. See how it is still full? Come back later.

I will listen to your "My super-rich-mom's super-rich-new-boyfriend bought her a surprise Mercedes convertable for her to drive while she's visiting him" story later. No really, I will listen to it later. No doubt it will cheeze me off and provide fodder for many a CrankyPants letter.

Thank you!

So here's how my last 18 hours went........worked til 7. Finally caught up my check book and payments. Realized I have no money to pay rent or utilities.

I was too tired to do laundry so stopped to check on my new chicks. found them all dead. Something got in the brooder took off with two, partially ate one and then killed the day olds well just for killing sake.

Stopped to get another "99 cent heart attack" for dinner. went home to feed the chicks and found both turkeys and my phoenix roo are gone as well as a duckling.

Fed chicks, tried not to cry. Got in a fight with the stupid plastic feed bags and vented a little frustration by throwing the can clear across the barn. Scared the crap out of the dog.

Choked down a chicken salad and watery root beer. Had a bit of fun watching the geese. Went to bed. Dreamt I was tangled in razor wire and every time I got part of me loose another part got tangled. Woke up at 5 am - went potty. Found the geese still in the tub floating around. Helped them out - poor dears were exhausted! Went back to sleep and dreamt I worked for the "President". It was weird and I got fired. Surprise.

Woke up, fed birds. Found another duckling gone. Heard a turkey peeping int he distance - don't know if it's one of my missing ones. Don't know how I'll find it. Went to the bank. Opened the store. Got a call from the boarding farm. They want money I don't have. Don't know how I'm paying the bill or shipping my horses.

I think I want to cry now.

Me either. We will have to start our won "no tea drinkers allowed" thread

Why? We don't mind hanging out with ya'll. Just means we can keep our tea to ourselves. It's not like we're elitist tea sippers with our pinkies in the air or anything...





Just fpr the record, I'd drink a margarita and ignore the fudge if I were at home. But they frown on intoxication at work, even if the bossman is on vacation. The buttheads.



Laree, maybe you'd be less of a cranky pants if you added a shot of something more warming than coffee into your coffee. Maybe tinkle-girl would suddenly become amusing. Reckon she'd go away if you laughed at her stories??

If I were there I'd give you my margarita. AND my fudge.

But I'd keep my nice cold tea. Unless you wanted me to dump it on you. Then we could both laugh.

I've just found this thread. As a former cube dweller, I hope you don't mind if I butt in.

Tea- cold, unsweetened, with lemon or mint. I really don't like sweet tea at all! I brew mine in the sun, it's so easy. Hot tea, if it's black, sweetened with a little honey and a splash of milk, otherwise it's neat.

I always had different teas in my cube, along with an electric tea kettle (they didn't like that much, but I kept it hidden on safety check days). Anyone who wanted a good cuppa knew where to go to get it!

I never had a Gin Fizz. Are they good?
I knew people who drank a gin drink called Christmas Trees.

I've been a tequila / moonshine girl for a long time. Never liked the smell of gin, thought it smelled like aftershave. Or maybe that was just my dad?

Eat some fudge. Worked for me.

I've been up since 5:30 when the cat started 'meeping' and looking for someone to come make the toys work. Or fill the food bowl. She'd settle for either...
