Sick. AGAIN. Good vibes in whatever manner you "pray" would be appreciated. I'm so tired of this. See gastro doc on 25th. By then, I should be a walking skeleton. I wanna be skinnier but not this way.

I'll be back when I feel a bit better.
Hugs to all.

I am sorry to hear you're not feeling very well. Feel better my dear. I'll send you some healing thoughts your way.

Ditto on that and good to see you too mdk. Be sure and check out last evening's vigil list posting.

Evening folks! What a lazy day. I've been in bed most of the day napping intermittently. I am bushed for hosting family and attending a family reunion yesterday. We drank quite a bit and then went to the casino. I didn't gamble but I did dance a lot. lol. I love live music!

Hell guy! If I knew you wanted live music, I'd have invited you to Doc's last night.

A half dozen of my Facebook friends got a half dozen different answers for today's math problem:

I came up with 1, but there is probably a trick or something. That is usually the point of these things.

Order of operations says you do the multiplication first. Then, you add up all the remaining 1's...12

Hi Tresha. Good to see you. I think that was Save's method of working the problem too. I have no idea myself. Fifth grade math was a long time ago.

Great kitties think alike. I run an academic tutoring firm so see it a lot. Save's right.

Sherry did it!

A good defense attorney could totally get me off.

Didn't realize that was part of attorney/client privilege...

Lord, protect our friend Gracie and deliver her to a capable doctor for relief.

The storms held off for most of the day. I assume the race went off okay. That thing brings 1,000,000 people to our area. Pretty amazing.

Hey WQ, just teasing Sherry a little. I want nothing but happiness for my CS friends.

We've always had fun goofing.

Save....it gave me a good laugh. No problem.

Oh good. Now I can stop worrying about her. I didn't feel good about that long before she didn't feel good about that.

Hey gang, my other computer where I store the vigil list is doing interminable updates and I'm going to bed. No changes except that I added Gracie to feel better and get well so don't forget her.

Good night darlinks. I love you guys.

Slowly coming to life this morning. Lots of blank stares for a while though.

 

[Foxfyre]

Good morning everybody. We're doing the necessary cleaning in advance of our house cleaning crew arriving later this morning. There's something wrong with that scenario but we seem to be obsessive compulsive about it so oh well.

Beautiful day here with our hottest week of the year so far stretching ahead - mid to high 90's beginning Wednesday - it is not inconceivable that we could see the first 100 of the season but hopefully not. I wish it didn't happen that way for a house full of out-of-state guests arriving on Friday, but I don't get to order the weather I want.

Sending positive thoughts for everybody to have a good week.

Just won a game of Mahjong titans in 299 seconds. I defy anyone to beat that score as I usually take 400 to 500 seconds and usually lose. I only win an average of 1 out of 5 games.

Congratulations. I don't know what Mahjong game you play. The Mahjong games offered at Pogo Games sometimes offer challenges to complete a game in under 4 minutes but it is likely a different game than yours. I usually am unable to do that.

Just saw this on FB and guess who crossed my mind: Ernie.

But of course he's taking care of the big birthday bashes at Docs tonight.

My first thought: Unless he's got another rig like that on the other side, he's just begging for back problems.

I'm pretty fast, but not nearly that fast. I do manage to win about 90-95% of my games though. I usually play when I'm winding down for the day.

If you were planning on watching NASCAR from Michigan International Speedway today, it will be raining all afternoon here (about eighteen miles away).

Bummer. I'm really not a NASCAR fan but still get drawn into it by family who is--my granddaughter has been a rabid fan since she was 10. So I know it is disappointing for those who really are fans. Just by osmosis I guess, I know all the drivers and you can't help but get caught up in the culture at least just a little bit.

I've heard of Nazgul races but what's NASCAR?

It is massive crowds and noise and patriotic displays and the roar of the engines and round and round they go in the spirit of Thunder Road.

I find the Dick and Jane books more intellectually stimulating......... not that most NASCAR fans know how to read......

NASCAR is not intended to be intellectually stimulating. It is intended to be a culture, an experience. It is pure Americana as few things are any more. It is something it is safe to do with your kids. And it is something to just be a part of free of the politics and ugliness that permeates so much of our society. It isn't my cup of tea, but I can sure appreciate why some do enjoy it.

It was a joke considering it's the number one sport in the country so "most" would be an obvious massive hyperbole.......

You should go to a race some time.
The party is amazing. At Talladega, there is on site camping for 100,000. Barring tornadoes, it's a great party.

Soooo...people go for the camping?

That's the way I understand it. I mean there is just so much fascination to watching cars go around an oval track so there has to be other factors of the experience. Watching the action in the pits. The food. The sights and sounds. All of it.
