I shoulda known when you said, "Miss you," that you'd blow up the conversation. I trust people way too much online.
Have a B-B-Q with friends or go out for dinner ?
Eat a small jar of green olives or a small jar of dill pickles?
Eat 5 tablespoons of mustard or 5 tbs. horseradish?
Smoke joints for life or ciggies? ( can't do both ) ?
Have sex with your ex or spend 10 days in jail?

A few years ago I was a camp counselor in the mountains and went the entire summer with no wifi, cell phone, tv, radio, or anything electronic save for a HAM radio used to communicate with base camp. I could do it again.It's that time my TDS and BL peeps. Another Whacked out Wednesday Would you rather. So........Would you rather:
Go without wi-fi for a week ( no phone, no TV, no nothin' ) or go without running water. ( Can't do dishes, can't flush toilet, can't shower etc ) ?
Be in pain with no pain meds or have a severe itch with no creams or anti-histamines?
Eat a cold can of chef boyardee ravioli or eat a cold can of corn beef hash ?
If you HAD to be one for a week would you be a policeman or a fireman?
Last but not least.......eat a grasshopper or a cockroach?
Me: go without wifi, be in pain, chef boyardee, fireman, and grasshopper.
Happy Wednesday my lovelies. xoxo
Without Wi-Fi. It would probably be good for me, honestly.It's that time my TDS and BL peeps. Another Whacked out Wednesday Would you rather. So........Would you rather:

Severe itch.Be in pain with no pain meds or have a severe itch with no creams or anti-histamines?
Corn beef.Eat a cold can of chef boyardee ravioli or eat a cold can of corn beef hash ?
Fireman, ACAB.If you HAD to be one for a week would you be a policeman or a fireman?
Grasshopper I guess...Last but not least.......eat a grasshopper or a cockroach?
Gotta quickly insert a catastrophe i had last week. The kittens in the tree prompted it.Go without wifi ... I cannot survive without showering, doing dishes, or flushing the toilet.
be itchy ... I'm used to it. Annoying side effect of my anxiety that doesn't go away with creams or antihistamines anyway.
cold chef boyardee... but I'd love to have both. Room temp / cold canned goods are the bomb. I eat room temp spaghettios by choice.
fireman so I could climb trees and rescue kitties
grasshopper... a better would you rather would have been eat a cockroach or die![]()

And now I have a neighbor that is not only a great tree climber but has good weed. Damn shame he is really young.....and married.
Unreal!!!! I have experienced the fear, trauma and devastation of losing an animal. I truly hold animals above humans. My cat, Scrapper, was an indoor/outdoorGotta quickly insert a catastrophe i had last week. The kittens in the tree prompted it.
So last week I was sitting here on the laptop reading BL and all of the sudden i heard a crash, bang and jumped out of my seat. One of my cats ( Fluffy ) had seen another cat outside and busted headfirst right through the screen. And that screen was on tight. He tore right through it like it was flimsy cotton.
Anyway that wouldn't have been so bad but my youngest and smallest ( Brindle Bug ...shes a tortoise shell and was a runt so she's very small for her age ) looked out the window to see what the fuss was about and was knocked out the window by my other cat ( Bear ) jumping out after Fluffy. So now Fluffy and this strange cat in the yard are outside fighting and run off to the other yard. Bear turns around and walks back up on the porch so I let him in. Fluffy finishes his yowling and wants a treat for running off the invader and now he's back as well. Mind you all my felines are neutered or spayed so their hormones should be cool.
But my little ( and favorite ) Brindle Bug are nowhere to be found. She was rescued as a kitten who lost it's mother in the woods behind my house. Her feet have never felt grass ( it was Winter when I found her ) and she is a cuddly little homebody that has never tried to get out.
So I proceed to call and call her. Walk the neighborhood calling. Post on all the lost pets sight. Call her all day until I am hoarse. Go home crying. Now it's getting dark and Michigan nights get chilly. It can be 90 during the day and 50 at night. It was one of those nights. I'm getting up every hour and checking the porch but because she doesn't know the hood i know she can't find her way back. More crying.
Next morning I walk the hood again and call and call. The woods are thick but I got heavy clothes on and went in. Had already called in the woods the previous day to no avail. I get about 20 yards in and I hear this faint mewing. I'm looking everywhere on the ground thinking she is hurt. Spent 20 minutes looking under dead piles of wood and brambles and such. Finally look UP and there 75 yards up in a tree is Brindle Bug. Holding on for dear life. In her fear she had scaled a tree with absolutely no limbs on it until way up there. tree is probably 150 feet tall or more. Theres one branch ( that she is on ) and because the tree is smooth I can't climb it.
I call the Fire Dept. and they wont help. I call Animal control....they won't help. Finally called a tree service and they will get her but not until the next day. And it's gonna be another cold night. So in desperation i went to my neighbor and asked if he had any ideas. He went into the woods with me and looked up and said I think i can scale this tree ( like natives do for coconuts ) but I'm not sure how i can grab her and scale back down. He went and got a toolbag ( to put her in ) and proceeded up the tree. He had to stop and rest 3 times on the way up because I'm sure scaling a tree with no cleats and just shimmying is hard work.
He finally reaches her and grabs her. Stuffs her in his toolbag and she jumps out. He snatches her and throws her back in . She is yowling like a banshee the whole time. Mind you she has been up there for 30 plus hours. He reaches the ground and I hug him and scoop up Brindle and put her in my hoodie. She curls up to my chest and is absolutely traumatized but calm now that she is down. I walk in the house with her and she eats 2 cans of fancy feast and passes out from her ordeal.
I go in my stash ( bill money ) and pull out $100 and promptly walk over and give it to my neighbor. He wouldn't take it at first so i just put the money on the table, gave him another hug and went home. Brindle was still passed out !!
About 3 hours later the guy comes over with a quarter ounce of primo weed. And gives it to me. He says he couldn't accept $100 so the weed is to pay back a bit of it. I hugged him again. And now I have a neighbor that is not only a great tree climber but has good weed. Damn shame he is really young.....and married.
I have since fixed the screen and my Brindle Bug is home safe.
Skydive, it’s on my bucket list.Cliff jump or Skydive? ( landing in one piece and alive is the outcome)
Done both, despite being Canadian I prefer the heat and sun. At least that way I get a tanWork all day in the heat and sun digging ditches or all day in the snow and cold shoveling sidewalks?
I was gonna go with pine cone, but on second thought dirt sounds easier.Eat a large pine cone off the ground or 1 level cup of dirt?
Drive, that is on my bucket list too actually.Amtrack across the Country or Drive?
Bologna and cheese sandwiches on stale bread ain’t THAT bad.You have to eat this for 30 days. Nothing else. WYR eat Cheap bologna and govt. cheese sandwiches dry, no condiments no extras. On stale white bread. OR cold Spam sandwiches on stale wheat bread ....also dry.
