Well, you've read the notes, the notes spilled the beans, and now it is time for you to post until the spilling the beans cows come home.

And the word of the day is: CAOUTCHOUC!

Smoke on your pipe and put that in!

Topic of the Day: "What a coinkydink!" The only time that I actually heard it was on a modern rebroadcast of Rowan & Martin's Laugh In, but I can't remember if it was Rowan or Martin who said it, but HERE is a bit of a history lesson about the word...and it mentions Rowan and Martin.

Good morning, all!

I have a busy morning. Access-a-Ride will pick me up and take me to my pharmacy. Then it will pick me up and take me for my Covid booster #2.

I slept well last night although Stella was a constant irritation until she finally settled down around 4:30 and snuggled up next to me for the last 90 minutes,

TOD

There is also "spill the tea" which I only learned within the past year.

There are easily several such expressions I enjoy pulling out now and then, for their humorous or even oddball shock value, and of course now that I'm sitting here trying to answer the question, not a one comes to mind. I'll have to post them as I think of them, and I look forward to hearing other people's favorites.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #25 on:** April 23, 2022, 06:19:07 AM »

Things like "Well, raise my rent!", with many variations that verge on the unprintable.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #26 on:** April 23, 2022, 06:22:38 AM »

So today is my last whole day of "nothing". The next one will be Sunday, a week from tomorrow.

I do, of course, have things to do. I must sit down with the Cinderella book and review whatever needs to be done. I have a pile of debris from my cleanup on the hillside yesterday which must be deposited on the Big Pile of Debris in the place I designated for such years ago. I have at least one load of laundry to do.

Oh, here's some news, and even more plans for my day of "nothing".

Are you ready for it?

We're grilling hot dogs on the deck this afternoon.

I may be late — maybe a few days — but save me some.
