Hi, honey, I'm home!
I bailed outa town yesterday to beat the heat. It got up to 113 here, and then the freakin' power went out, so I went to my sister and BIL's, where it was a mere 85. Just got home about half an hour ago.

So, wha'd I miss?

My 12-year-old niece wants to be a DUer. She was snarkin' on * all the time I was there. :evilgrin:

1. Well, the least you could do
is present me with some flowers.

BEFORE the explanation. :eyes:

12. Mine should be pretty low
Edited on Mon Jul-24-06 12:57 AM by Oeditpus Rex
Nothing was running for about 20 hours or so.

When I got home, it was like 85 inside the house. But it's home. :loveya:

4. Only 113?
Our power was on and off all day friday and yesterday, and it was 116. I win. Or lose really. Whatever, it still sucks. The important thing is:

Welcome Back Rexy! :hug: :woohoo: :party:

16. LOL! I do that all the time
But I don't think Ricky ever said "Hi, honey, I'm home." His line was "Hey, Lucy, I'm home," or just "Hi, honey."

When I hear "Hi, honey, I'm home," I think of Bill Macy in "Pleasantville." Except he didn't say "Hi."

Damn, I'm a pedant... x(

28. Then you can tell everybody
to kiss Desi's ass
It may be quite simple, but
it has quite some mass
I hope you don't mind, I hope you don't mind
that I post in this thread...
How wonderful it is with an ass for a head

15. Well if you have to ANNOUNCE that you're home,




...that means you DIDN'T take me with you. So you can just haul your sorry, air-conditioned ass right out to the porch tonight, mister. Harrumph!

17. Air-conditioned?
If I had a/c, I woulda been home as soon as the power was back on.

And I'm reserving the porch as an alternative choice. Last night, my neighbor slept in her back yard.

22. You missed my quest for a good
picture of me. I have to politely disagree with one of your last replies to me. I think your equipment would be more than adequate. :evilgrin:

23. Nuh-uh
I'd need an umbrella strobe, preferably with a diffuser box, and a slave.

Plus a studio...
