Jim, no MUDchicken & dumplings left.

DO have CHICKEN & DUMPLINGS left. And they were made with Cream of Mushroom
Soup this time, with only ONE can of Cream of Chicken Soup. Felt sorry for Walt, so
used what I had on hand instead of going to store for more Cream of Chicken soup.

We will be taking Jim to the vet today and having him put to sleep. Oh, guess he is already asleep - well something to keep in mind.

Walt - sore teef is no fun! Makes your mouf hurt! But you knew that!

Rainy day in Lincoln - maybe a little precip for Denver area? BUT - you all are east, except the dreaded Dan - so brace yourself for more rain. Plus a little noise!

Taako salad for lunch? Sans beans. Mookie , well, never mind.

Well, today was my first day at Quizno's. It was better than I thought it would be. Real nice people there, too many dishes. I was washing for a couple hours. When I thought it might be done, more dishes came!
My Summer is going to be mostly work. Oh well, I have something to keep me active. If I didn't have two jobs, I probably would sit in front of my computer, and get fat. But, that'll never happen, since I can now establish a regular workout schedual.

COFFEE PLEASE!

Mudchicken's wife (brave soul) has convinced the bossman that a mudchicken is not happy until he goes out the door in the morning and rolls in the dirt prior to setting off for work. Mudchickens cannot handle being chained to a desk for too very long. [swg][swg][swg]

Walt is laughing his a@# off, and it's causing his face to hurt even more than it has
been. He's aparently has a bottom tooth that's abcessed and the left side of his
face is so swollen, he looks like a chipmunk (or someone with the Mumps).

Maybe we need to feed him some more CHICKEN and dumplings (NOT mudchicken
and dumplings like Jim thought).

Mookie: DUSTY or iron-flavored? Let's hope no dirt or nails are in it.

No Jim,

I wouldn't dare use mudchicken: might make the dumplings taste NASTY.

Jim isn't awake yet. Got in bed about 2 am and Duchess got me up around 7. It takes a while for me to get dressed---kinda hard when you are a "zombie". But now drinking some coffee and preparing to wake up for the day.

Now on the funny side: lol lmao, when I first read the "Made chicken and dumplings yesterday" what I thought I saw was lol "Mudchicken and dumplings yesterday", thought we had just "lost" another one. See what happens when you are up before your time. lol

Chicken & Dumplings sounds like a great special.

Sure are a lot of great hits in the table-side juke box!

Well Mookie, the old saying does go "death comes in threes". But let's hope it's a
looong way off for that third death. The two last week are ENOUGH for now.

OK - Mookie is back to work - order will be restored and hopefully I can stick around ALL week. But then again - a lot of our presidents are getting older!

Off to make coffee! Fast!

Congrats on the new job. You are doing well Grasshopper. Keep up the good work. BTW, I like the one sandwich with the french dressing on it. I can't remember, I think maybe the Club something or something Club. Anyway that is my fav sandwich there.

Some people know that I have a part time job at Purkey's Toy Trains. But now, I hold a second job at Quizno's Subs. Not bad for a 15 year old. I needed a second job so I can get a vehicle sooner or later, and I am buying a PC soon. I can't wait!

Jim, your right, it is kind of suprising really. I do have some german backround in me so maybe it went from germany to Czechoslovakia to here or something like that. I don't really know for sure.

Another borring day. think I'll go take a nap.

My ancestry is German / Dutch on my father's side, and Cherokee Indian and something else (I forgot [:(] [V] ) on my mother's side. I thought your last name was of German ancestry too. It sure looks like it is. [:)]


I came home from work, walked Dutchess and went Krogering. While shopping I saw this good looking "New York Style Gourmet Turtle Cheesecake". Man is it gooooooooood. [:p] [:p] [:p] I also stopped at Hardee's on the way home for a 1/3 pound thickburger with cheese. [:D]
After eating the cheeseburger I have had 2 helping of the cheesecake and am eyeing another one as I type. Usually these store bought desserts don't taste as good as they look, but this one certainly is an exception to that. Gotta go, I have a date with a turtle. [}:)] [;)] [:p]

Another one of those good old boring days. Not a Whole lot to do except pick up the water in my basement with a shop vac. It's comming in faster and in more places then the last time we had water down there. I don't have much to do today really. We might go either to day or tomarrow to a little town called Hillsbro WI, for the Cesky den celebration. My dad grew up just outside of Hillsbro on a farm. Cesky den is to celebrate the Czech heritiage. Most of the Czech imigrants many years ago settled in that area and so teh commemerate it every year. The food is the best part. The have kolace, which is like a fruit pie without a crust on top, and roliky. which is like a dinner roll, but they melt in your mouth. I've got to keep working on different modeling projects too. And I'm still wide awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwake, really I aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaam. Okay so maybe not, but I won't be for much longer, good night All!

Jim went to one of the "competitors" tonight on the way home. I can't tell you which <Taco Bell> one but I had Tacos. [:D]

Don't forget to check out the pole dancer in the humor thread. Sorry, but I just had to stop by one of "Those Clubs" the other night on the way home. This little "Brown Eyed" cutie really got my eye. I even had a "lap" dance. [:D] [:D] [:D]
