    <content type="html">A couple was invited to a swanky costume party.  The  Mrs. got a terrible headache and told her husband to go to the party alone. He, being a devoted husband protested, but she argued and said she was going  to take some aspirin and go to bed and there was no need for his good time being  spoiled by not going. So he took his costume and away he went. The wife, after sleeping soundly for about an hour, awakened without pain and, as it was  still early, decided to go the party. Since her husband did not know what  her costume was, she thought she would have some fun by watching her husband to  see how he acted when she was not with him. She joined the party and soon  spotted her husband cavorting around on the dance floor, dancing with every nice  woman he could, and copping a little feel here and a little kiss there. His  wife sidled up to him and being a rather seductive babe herself, he left his current partner high and dry and devoted his time to the  new babe that had just arrived. She let him go as far as he wished naturally, since he  was her husband. Finally, he whispered a little proposition in her ear and  she agreed. So off they went to one of the cars and had a quickie. Just before unmasking at midnight, she slipped away,  went home, put the costume away and got into bed, wondering what kind of  explanation he would make for his behavior. She was sitting up reading when  he came in, and she asked what kind of a time he had.  He said: &amp;quot;Oh, the same  old thing. You know I never have a good time when you're not there.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;quot;Did  you dance much?&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;quot;I'll tell you, I never even danced one dance. When I  got there, I met Pete, Bill Brown and some other guys, so we went into the den  and played poker all evening. But you're not going to believe what happened to  the guy I loaned my costume to....&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt;</content>

    <content type="html">&amp;nbsp;I just got back from Tulsa, OK where my grandparents and youngest uncle live. &amp;nbsp;We took the kids. &amp;nbsp;There were some fabulous lightening storms while we were there.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm seeing my grandparents for the first time it seems like. They're in their late 80's. &amp;nbsp;They are staunch Republicans but it was pretty easy to deflect any political talk.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The thing that bothered me was this:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My Grandma always forwards me these ridiculous e-mails. Since she's got that right bent, most of them have to do with &amp;quot;Anti-Obama&amp;quot; hysteria. Recently I received one recounting the 20+ attendents &amp;quot;required&amp;quot; by Michelle Obama and what their salaries are for example. More have to do with health care reform and how Obama wants to euthenize old people - that sort of thing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We were in the car getting ready to go somewhere and my grandma started telling this story about how dumb government employees are giving an example of a lady that couldn't understand time zone differences. &amp;nbsp;It was the exact same thing as an e-mail she had sent me earlier in the month - she was recounting it like it was personal experience! She actually BELIEVES all these ridiculous spam e-mails that people circulate and tells others about them as topic of conversation. Ugh. &amp;nbsp;Wish she never figured out how to e-mail.&lt;br type="_moz" /&gt;</content>

I could see perfect reflections of the clouds above in the water.  As I was looking over the bridge I saw a loon swimming along.  I glanced away and when I looked back it was gone.  I was thinking to myself that I probably would have seen it fly off so where could it have gone?  Just then it popped back up out of the water a good 25 feet beyond where I had last seen it...ah ha! Now I was on to what it was doing.  I stood there for 15 - 20 minutes watching the loon pop up and down (I wanted to see it bring a fish up) and the clouds on the water and the sun rising. So gorgeous. I'm so lucky to live here.&lt;br clear="all" /&gt;</content>

    <content type="html">&lt;p&gt;So, I'm transferring this huge back up file from one directory to another and my 'puter is bogging down on apps so I decide to surf *gasp! I know!! Its been SO LONG!!*&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I was on &lt;a href="http://www.notmartha.org"&gt;Not Martha&lt;/a&gt; re-checking it out because of the &lt;a href="http://www.notmartha.org/archives/2008/02/27/bacon-cups/"&gt;whole bacon cup thing &lt;/a&gt;and I found a link to this shower art somehow (I've lost the exact trail really) but jeezuz is this fucking funny or what?!?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img alt="" src="http://ny-image1.etsy.com/il_430xN.41653049.jpg" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I know my precious Layniedoodle will hate this cuz its got a &amp;quot;monkey&amp;quot; in it.&amp;nbsp; Too bad baby - this shit cracks me up...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And to catch y'all up on what else I've been doing:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* Work is kicking my ass but I kind of deserve it after taking the 00's off for the first eight years&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* I have&amp;nbsp;a new job and I work downtown now - way cool to be downtown&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* I basically lost my raise by spending it all working downtown; however life satisfaction quotient has increased dramatically so it all evens out&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* I don't post much because I'm making Xmas gifts this year instead of buying so my nights are generally taken up by that instead of surfing/posting&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* LPL&amp;nbsp;and I&amp;nbsp;sold fish on Aquabid!&amp;nbsp; Hopefully it all goes well and we can start MOVIN&amp;nbsp;SOME&amp;nbsp;PRODUCT...lol, I'm talking about fish like they're crack&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* My bowling game has improved dramatically; if I don't hit the Vodka Tonics too hard I can consistently break 100! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* My kids are going through a tough time - their dad/stepmom have half-sibling #2 on the way and the step-mom is a little bit wacky because of it.&amp;nbsp; I can only imagine the stress living between our house and theirs causes and the split loyalties and the insane schedules and the parental demands all ON&amp;nbsp;TOP&amp;nbsp;OF&amp;nbsp;the business of just growing up.&amp;nbsp; I tend to be very soft on them in respect to chores&amp;nbsp;because of it -- I hope that doesn't backfire in my face&lt;/p&gt;* I&amp;nbsp;feel for others in this financial crisis - but we're really unscathed by it at the moment; plus also - I'm responsible with my money and have a hard time weeping for idiots who bought more than they could ever afford&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;*&amp;nbsp;I got the hankering for a trip somewhere&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* I've now wasted enough time that there's a meeting I&amp;nbsp;have to attend. It will be boring; my presence will be superflerous; my mind will wander and this meeting is&amp;nbsp;for my &amp;quot;old position&amp;quot; that I will officially be out of on 11/28/08.&amp;nbsp; There are still lots of issues I could have taken care of there if I hadn't been so jaded and now I just have to let go of them, they're not my problem any longer.&amp;nbsp; Wait a minute...is that the feeling of a huge weight being lifted from my shoulders??&amp;nbsp; Wheeeeeeee!!&amp;nbsp;Makes me kind of giddy. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I could go on but that's enough for now.&amp;nbsp; Y'all just have to wait another 6 months for a substantive post.&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;p.s. I could really use some &lt;a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=14954&amp;amp;section_id=5178320"&gt;Ugly Baby Shower Art &lt;/a&gt;if you're wondering what in the world to get me for Christmas...</content>
