If you ever murder someone, who you have called on a regular basis, keep calling them.
They do check the phone records.
If you stop calling them, it's a sign that you know they're dead.

biggrin

Fort Worth Mom · Mod/Penguin lover/Princess!

LOL! What a thought, NJN! biggrin

It's 2:45 am.

And what is FWM doing?

Staying up all night, watching the tennis!

I wish I were in Melbourne right now. It's in the 90's! smile

I will be a zombie for the next two weeks.

I blame it on the Australian Open.

Don't be surprised to see me up at all hours! biggrin

Nobody Just Nobody · Rib-it! Rrrib-it!

Eh, I'm up all hours too. I have to think who to text next. I must choose carefully since they will be the suspect!

This is an awesome thought. But I must delete this post. There can't be any record of my knowledge of this.

Pffffffffftttttttt. We told the urologist we were watching Breaking Bad and trying to figure out how to manufacture meth. He told us if we could figure it out and get away with it let him know. He'd come join us.

I love crime shows. So interesting.

Nobody Just Nobody · Rib-it! Rrrib-it!

Besides, watching them helps me understand my friends better!

If I don't check the weather, I won't know how cold it is outside...Last night they said the wind chill could be -15.

Vacation request resubmitted, already approved by the president!

I talked to boss today and asked him about still taking my vacation. He said to submit what I wanted, he had changed the rule.....because of me 😀 Not sure if I'll be working during the shutdown, he said we would see closer to the time. But I get my vacation! I already booked my plane ticket!

I'm meeting my cousins in Vegas in March to watch basketball. We've been planning this trip for over a year.

Afternoon.

It's 27 with a "real feel" of 13.

But the sun is shinning like crazy. So that is nice.

I just ate a Lean Pocket for lunch...

I liked it.

Beautiful here, but frigid. Took the boys to Hobby Lobby and picked out sports themed stuff for the bedroom walls. I ordered a fathead. Thanks Trudy for the tip! They picked out Slapshot since they met him.

Slept late,

Took care of some things for work.

jump started Spouse's car and ran it until it warmed up. She hasn't driven it in at least a year.

Would little jars of honey be a fun "treat" for guests to take home from a 50th anniversary party?

Will it be from a local beehive? That would be a nice take home gift. My DIL's family has a apple orchard and had apple butter in little jars for the wedding guests. So good.

Nobody Just Nobody · Rib-it! Rrrib-it!

Taking DH to the urologist today!

chef · Guru

Well, this day got off to an annoying start. My new supposedly non-stick waffle maker is not non-stick. I spent the better part of an hour removing waffle from it. I had to talk myself down from chucking it and buying a new one. So breakfast turned into lunch. Oh well.

Yes.

We know several bee keepers.

So fresh, in the comb honey.

We have 2 non stick but stick Waffle irons.

We use a little Pam on them.

This is how the rest of my day is going:

Boss: are we all set for me to go to *meeting name*
Me: you told me you weren't going to that
Boss: oh, I changed my mind
Me: in that case, no, we aren't all set since you didn't tell me you were going
Boss: oh

As I spend my afternoon scurrying around getting everything lined up.

I don't like honey. I never liked the taste. It's kind of peculiar, because my great grandfather was the Royal Beekeeper to the Russian court.

We use a little Pam on them.

I have a non-stick waffle iron, and I use a pastry brush to paint on a little oil, so the waffles don't stick.

(Using Pam on non-stick cook wear will ruin the surface, over time. Save it for your Corning Wear or Pyrex. It's fine to use on that.)

If you like the ease of using a spray, get a Misto, and fill it with your oil of choice. Your non-stick cook wear will thank you. smile

Oh, but being able to look at Shemar Moore for 40 minutes makes up for it.

FNW · Guru

I liked Shemar back when he was on Young & The Restless.

FNW · Guru

I use cooking spray on my non-sticks, too. I know it's supposed to breakdown the teflon or whatever they use now, but I figure I'll just toss it and replace it when it gets bad.

I didn't bother with guest gifts.

Late 1800s to early 1900s. He was shot during the Russian Revolution.

My grandfather was sent to Siberia.

Watched a show yesterday about a woman who was murdered. She and her DH didn't always get along so they thought it was him at first glance. Then they found out from him she was having an affair. So they shifted to the other guy. When it wasn't him they started looking around. They said in this day and age one of the first places they look is someone's cell phone. They pull up the last called number and the texts. So what's the point here? Well, FWM if I go missing expect a phone call!

Was it on ID? I watch that channel all the time. My wife hates those type of shows.

My waffle iron isn't teflon.

It's iron.

I don't know if I will do the gift thing. Depends on cost.

I just think it's cute. It's golden for the 50th anniversary and it's "honey".
