    Good morning, Loungettes!  Froggy morning here. 

    Goldie--YIKES, it's even  colder there than here!  Keep warm!  I like your Poppy DOTD better, that's why I snagged it when we bumped!  Then I went SPLASH in the hot tub and had to have Jock bring me replacement drinks, one of each! 

    Cammy--you and Chrissy make quite a pair, of what I'm not sure!

    Juliet--can't wait to see your pics!

    ORLA--if the lobstah eyes freak you out you should hear them scream when they get dropped in boiling water!  (PS, they don't really scream, it's the water in the body turning to steam and whistling out through openings in the shell).

    Wahine--funny time of year this is, with remembrances and celebrations, isn't it. 

    CynCyn--have a good day at work!

    Welcome, Columbusmom!  What's your favorite dwinky??

    DorKable--Oh, my, you need to sit your "friend" down and talk to her!  But then, it sounds like "she" is already thinking again.  A dwink and a kiss to build a fantasy on, but stay away from the real thing!  Oh, my, now mese is having fanatasys about some of the guys mese has met in the past! I remember working nights back in the day, and waking up totally funcused about what 6:00 it was--ayem or peeyem.  And occsaionally sleeping 12 hours.  And dwinking pots full of coffee all the time.

    Wahine--I was wondering why there were pillows and blankets and   eggcrate mattresses on the Lounge floor, especially around the bar stools. . . .

    Chrissy--I love streets full of restaurants, have such fun examining and choosing!

    Welcome, Blackcat, and thanks for the recipe!  Sounds wicked yummy! And I am LOL whilst Sadie looks at me like I've lost my mind!

    Princess Glitter Sizzle's DOTD is The Steamy Kiss

    1/4 oz triple sec

    1/4 oz benedictine

    1/4 oz licor 43

    1/4 oz maraschio liqueur

    1/4 oz yellow chartreuse

    Stir, strain into a cordial glass.

    Cyn, yes we have mountains. And I would do just fine to never see snow again. Unfortunately that won’t happen, unless I move! I think today is your Saturday?

    LOL B, have some more wine.

    You girls (Katrinka/DorK) staying up so late, I don’t know how you do it. I think the latest I stay up is like 10. Been going to bed even earlier since it gets dark so early. I hate that! Went to bed at 7 on Saturday, LOL.

    Chrissy, I knew I wasn’t the only “Innocent One”. Will have to remember the phrase “absobloodylutlely”. I can do without the snow tho.

    Love the cake recipe BlackCat. Glad that vodka didn’t go to waste.

    Chrissy and Cami look so cute down dere on de floor wif dere pillows.

    It does get cold here in the mountains NM, but at least warms up some during the day, and almost ALWAYS sunny. That means a lot. I had to go back and see who Columbusmom was, I missed her. As for the drinks, can never have too many, and to have 2 different versions of the same drink gives us a choice.

    Welcome Columbusmom!

    Another DOTD “Night Owl Punch” A big bowl of it, for Katrinka and Dorothy, cuz they stay up all night.

    Add all ingredients to a large container and chill for at least an hour. When ready to serve, fill your punch bowl with ice and add the punch. Garnish the cups with lemon and lime slices. Recipe makes 30-35 servings.

    Another very cold morning here. I can't wait for summer!

    Good Morning,

       It certainly is my Saturday Lori and the only plan I have is to grab a few groceries
    a little later once my DS brings back my vehicle. I pictured where you live in my head
    (yeah....enough room to fit the state of Arizona...scary but explains a lot) being
    like Flagstaff.

    So cool to hear from Julie and Stella..is she behavin??? Are you??  ehh..why bother..
    as long as Moler Foker doesnt catch up to you.

    Dorty....you party animal staying up all night with Jess...when do you go back to woirk
    again?? I hope its a long time from now because you are much happier when you arent
    reporting from hell and I just love you so much that I couldnt stand for you not to be
    the happiest you can be and that means staying fahhh fahhhh away from the office.
    I am sure you will provide your friend with the best advice also..you are just the
    bestest kind a friend anyone could ask for.

    NM...I do most of my clothes shopping at Goodwill and have found some really cool
    things..treasures and cheepo!!  When I worked at Beans I just loved the employee
    store in Freeport...I had so many parka's and flannels and boots (a lesbian wet
    dream) towels, sheets...you name it..monogramed also..but not necessarily with
    my name or initials.

    Cami....where art thou????  Hello ...Mz tapper???  You are one funnee lady..I'll try
    not to step on you or Chrissy on my way to the bar..Jest have to member your there
    soze I dont trip on you on my way out..mebee I shouldnt leave and avoid that horrid
    sceen of dwink spillage.

    Welcome back Cat....I  think I've made that cake before but I done member.

    Lara....woman of few words...wassssss uppppp???? 

    Kathy on her way owtta town again Fried dey!!!  Have a great trip!  My mom
    was saying in this book she is reading about end of the world proficies (sp)
    that China is to play a significant roll in things to come and that right
    now is the beginning , she said China would build an army to fight against
    the Christian Army and that China would fail....whateveha....I think
    Mother nature is out to get us first...besides you cant believe everything
    or most things that you read...well, with the exception of this thread of
    course.

    Bernie...thanks for all that history...you are an awesome educator in my opinion..

    Love ya girls....have a great day!!

    Bernie I love u'r historu--it amazes me cuz I never knew all this--yes amazes me cuz I thought i knew everythin.

    Bernie give them hell--I bought a Tyson a couple of years ago--it lasted 1 yr. and was awful. I wrote to them and they ave me a phone # to call and they could walk me thru maybe fixin it--WALK ME THRU--I told them I couldn't crawl thru fixing it--WTF and that's all they did for me.-Oh now I'm getting worked up--those things aren't cheap and I saved for it and poof. My DD cleaned it and everything.

    I slept like crap ladt night -, as soon as I can drink I'm diving into a punch bowl of liquor all kinds.

    I just came home a little while ago--I was at the onc. Now I like her--she's very thorough. And this afternoon I see my cardiologist--I's so tired now but I'm glad they are the same day--I was there 2 effin hrs. So depressing I saw so many sick people so of course I talk to everyone, Oh these poor people My heart was breaking--good thing I see the Card. this afternoon he'll fix it.

    Oh BTW she found a lump thingy on my ribs so I get a scsn soon. They call and make the time. I like that. Oh and mu reaction was --I said to her I really liked her hair and I would like to get my hair cut like hers, It is so cute, but I can see she has thick hair which I don't so much on top--but I have to find a picture of her for my DD to try and get my hair like that. They have pics. of all the Drs. somewhere here--I hope I can find it.

    Cami, Glad you got both your docs in 1 day, and sure hope the scan is ok, let us know when you get that done and have results. Hate you had such a bad Dyson (Tyson? lol)....I LOVE mine!!! In fact I have 2, one for downstairs, and one up. I also bought one for my mom. Mine oldest is prolly just 3 yrs old I think. I love how good they clean (I compared with my other vac) and so easy to dump the chit out.

    LOL Bernie..."ball cleaner"... we sure talk about balls a lot! Wasn't it cami that was mentioning balls the other day? Or another loungette?

    Cyn I think you leave on Fri? I don't leave till Sat....too soon though. Today I will help my mom decide what she will take, but I need to do my chit too! Are you ready for your trip? Beijing will be brrrrrr cold...the day we arrive the high will be upper 40's and lows in upper 20's. (Just updated and now 53 the day we arrive....yay!).Guess it will be colder when we go to the Great Wall? Will see lots of neat stuff, so hoping the weather is good and not rainy (so far it looks good).

    ohhh nice DOTD's! I like your "Steamy Kiss", NM, and also Lori's "Night Owl Punch"...since you gave me and Dorkie a big bowl of it, am glad it has BOURBON in it...our fav! We can even make it with JD, for Dorkie, as I like that too.

    OK, nice break, but I gotta git back to work. Good luck at the Cardio today, Cami. And hope they got your car all bixed up, D!

    Huggers,
    kathy

    Hi bwest fwends!

    I am back from my post-op appointment and de doctor sez all is well, he tailed me that the tit did not fall, it was jest swollen. And I got permission to rake but doctor said be cautious with wet leaves which are heavy. He is pleased with my progress. But he called me FAT, he really used that word. That's it, I am going on a diet. I am not technically over weight according to the charts but I am close. And I has a lot of belly flub. I asked mese surgeon if he could give me free lypo and told him I deserve it after at least ten surgeries. It should be like buy ten get one free, damn it. He said no, it would cost 4k. I never in a million years would have thought about any type of cosmetic surgery prior to BC but in thinking back, if I did not have cancer and did not spend all of my money on medical bills, I could afford lypo, tummy tuck and face lift, damn it.

    That is mese rant of the dey. Oh, mese got lost in the freaking city. I decided to take a different bridge over but could not remember the name of the exit off of the interstate and took the wrong one. I did not have my gps since I do not have my car. I felt like an idiot calling them and telling them I was running late cuz mese was lost. Oh, I hate large cities.

    Camille, I am praying for you dear heart, mese hopes yer next appointment goes well. I will pray that the thingy on your rib is nothing. I also hate being at the onc office. I always say I am going to De Aquariam. Dat is because they have a nice fish tank there. I jest sit by the fishies and play finger puppet with them and portend I am not amongst sick people. I will have conversations but am more likely to be found talking to de fish. And sorry about your Tyson hehe, you are supposed to cook dem, not put it in de oven, dat prolly why it broke. jk about your typo. I really hate that you saved for one and that it took a chit. I hope you told them where to stick it.

    Thanks for the yummy dwinks, I gotta fly den come home and have hopefully a short nap. Have a good afternoonie ladies. Wish me and my friend luck!!

    Peace girls!

    Well mese got to go and uhh, pick up my friend's car. I told my friend to get in and out as quicly as possible.

    Ahhhh, tanx AdorKable! Dats sweet. Glad your appt went well, but yeah I had my DH's dr tell me I needed to lose weight about 3 yrs ago. When I blamed it on all the cruises, buffets, casinos, and trips, he said that my DH wasn't overweight...darn, thought I had a good excuse!! Was thin when I met DH, and he exposed me to all dat stuff, so I still blame him! BUT I don't think you are fat at all...and your arms are slim and firm....like mine used to be...now da bat wings. Sheesh, I wanted just a "neck lift" but my PS said it all would need to be done to have somewhere to put what he lifts from the neck (or sumtin like that),  at a tune of $20k, but that was last year....

    OLara, Love that parachuting pic! thanks!

    Oh, and NM I foigot to tank youse, for 'splainin bout those lobstah cries...I really thought they were crying and hated it. Still wish they could kill them humanely first, b4 puttin in de spa (steam bath).

    Gotta go to my mom's now, so latah lobstah gatahs......

    hey, why no one dwinking? I jest getting started, working on #2. I had a berry long nap and am now ready to partay! Who wants to party with me? where is ebery body? I am going to try to read the last few pages again as I am guilty of skimming. I did not see a new goil either

    So many of ye loungettes are biddy planning for exciting events, woo hoo.  CynCyn seeing her baby goil perform, Katwinka & co are going to China for Thanksgiving and Christmas in China. Our own Allison came up with de offical Chinese Christmas song "fa wa wa wa wa wa wa wa wa"...dat crack me up. And Mema Sue is gonna meet our Beans and I tink Beanie will be back to the lounge for de holidays. Beanie been berry biddy working on settling into her new home but says she be back in de lounge soonliest. i can't wait! I needs a good dose of beanlish, de offical HTL langwich. Oh mese, such excitement around. Mese excited about going back to work next week. Just as excited as I am to cut off my left arm ha! But dis goils gotza make a de moolah cuz JD does not really grow on trees, chit!

    I miss ya Allison, mese herd yese been biddy with tings lately. How old will Aubry be, is it 11? She is growing up too fast, she is a little doll, jest like her Mommy.

    Oh now I see Orla's skydive pic. Are those people supposed to be upside down like that? OMG, I could not do that if I tried. Dere is not enuff booze in de world for dat. It has to be breath taking while free falling but I tink I'd have chit in my pants and that would bring me down crashing.

    NM, i am also glad you explained about the lobster and that they are not screaming. I have never tried lobster and jest can't. To me, it is inhumane to boil the creature alive. But everyone I know that eats it, say it de best ting in the world. I hated seeing the parts, ick. But that is my problem, I def have mental issues when it comes to seafood. No idea why, I jest can't do it. We went to Bar Harbor when I was around 15 or so and it was a really cool city. I remember driving the streets and watching the lobster boats come in. Eberybody around me was eating lobster cept me. I think I had bread and butter which was a regular for picky me. I drove my mom nuts with my eating.  oops, should not say that, she is nuts. oops, bad joke. A widdle funny though?

    Lori, I don't know how YOU do it lol. I can't imagine going to bed that early. For dis dwunk, 10pm is early. I do have to start buckling down but not tonight, mese gots stuff to do. I am a creature of de night. I tank ye for the night owl punch.

    Black Cat, yer recipe was hysterical. When I first started reading I was like "uh, why is this woman getting her panties in a bunch over that fact that we are making her retype this recipe, I never saw it before". I apologize for tinking that, I had to read through it to understand where you was coming from. Dat was a great recipe, I might share it with mese friends. Stop by again, de more, de maryier.

    BBBBernie, I love yer history lessons too. Sometimes I wait for de punch line and realize dere is not one. Mese can be quite stupit at times, many times. I always get a kick out of yer jokes, you getting some competion but it will be hard for ennyone to compete with ye, ye are de best!

    I tink I see Camille and Chrissy on de floor again. Glad de tenders brought dem pillows and egg crate mattress, such a good idea to have de matresses under all de barstools for dose of us dat often fall (BBBERNIE)hehe, jk, I love ya!

    Ok, I read and I caught up but still missing another new goil. i has to page back and look for her and get her a dwink. cheers mi' lovelies, tomorrow is twosdey, get yer dwinking shoes on! And a hailo to de rest of de goils mese did not mention. It is again painting time. Mese doctor sez dat ok as long as I do not stretch too far or reach. I jest tankful I can reach mese JD bottle hehehe! Love ya all!

    Cam, you can always google the time in Adelaide or in Dublin for the current time for Chrissy B and for BBBBernie. I have them set in my world clock on mese new phone. It is currently 2:30am here in NJ USA and it is 6pm in Australia for CB and it is 7:30am for Bernie. I also have China plugged in for when Wahine is away, it is 3:30pm in Bejing.

    I am wondering if I have Chrissy's right, I would swear she is in Adelaide but I thought that she is 12.5 hour ahead of me which would make it 3:00pm there.Hmm. Go to recheck that.

    I think I forgot to tell u the 1st time I saw the card he looked like akid, but this time he had a little unshaved look blue eys and so adorable and of course I told him, then the nurse told me who had a crush on him, I don't blame them. He's a hunk and he turned all red. Oh like he hasn't heard that before. I can't believe he was the same guy so at least he's reslly esdy on dese old eyes.

    Good morning, Loungettes!  Windy and warm, about to turn colder today.  Sigh. 

    Goldie--The night owl punch sounds very yummy--good idea to have a DOTD for the daytime types and one for the Night Owls!

    CynCyn-Wow, wish I could get into the Beans employee store!  Sounds like a blast to shop there.  I do enjoy the treasure hunting aspect of Goodwill shopping.

    BBBBernie--LOL!  

    Cammy--Glad you like your onc, that makes a huge difference in how things go, at least emotionally.  Not so glad about the lump thingy on the ribs, though.  Hopefully it's just scar tissue or something like that. 

    Wahine--great idea to tweak the dwinky recipes!  I think I'm jealous of your upcoming trip, you better take lots of pics!  And have fun!

    ORLA--the lobstah scream works just like a dinner bell around here, everyone shows up out of nowhere!

    DorKable--Hooray for getting the appointment over with and getting a good report.  Not so sure I like him calling you fat, though.  And I hear you about being able to afford cosmetic surgery before bc when I didn't want it, can't afford it now that I do!  And rand away, you ladies have listened to me rant often enough.  Time to return the favor!

    Wahine--actually, you can kill lobstah humanely--bring the water to boiling first, then put them in head first.  Their brains are small and cook really fast.  You can also hypnotize them first.  I remember doing that as a kid, it was fun. 

    DorKable--not everyone likes lobstah, which is ok 'cause it leaves more for those of us who do!  I'll eat your share anytime! 

    Cammy--I got to admit I like that surreal feeling some meds give you.  Sometimes I wish I had more excuses to indulge in them!

    Princess Glitter Sizzle's DOTD is the What Time is It?

    1 1/2 oz canadian whiskey

    1/2 ruby port

    1 egg yolk

    1 tsp grenadine

    Combine ingredients in a cocktail shaker half-filled with ice.  Shake well, strain into a cocktail glass.

    Cyn, sort of like Flagstaff, except we don’t have the tall Ponderosa Pines here. Had to chuckle at your monogrammed sheets n towels, lol. And yes, the best reading is right HERE.

    Oh shoot Cami, sorry you didn’t sleep well, and now have to worry about that lump. I hope you can get the scan soonliest. Will be praying for you my dear that it is nothing. And you just go right ahead and dive into that bowl of likker, you can do that here. (((((CAMI))))) What is the name of your doctor, maybe one of us can help find a picture. (I see you found the pictures) Just read about the heart doctor, you are having high BP and might have to do Herceptin? Sue does that, maybe she can answer any questions you might have.

    Dorky, your doc really told you you were fat? I will get a louisbille slugger after his a$$. A$$hole! I go to bed early, I get up early, usually by 5 am. Works well for the summer, as the sun is shining by then too, and we can get some work done outside before it gets too hot.

    Kathy, $20K for a lift. Holy Chit, had no idea they were that much. I always see those “Life Lifts” on tv and wonder about those. I would like to have my neck bixed too, as it meets the edge of my chin, so I hate my profile….lol.

    Bernie, wouldn’t we all like to slap our DH’s like their mothers did??? LOL, but I’m sure they could say the same in regards to us too.

    NM, do tell. How does one hypnotize a lobster???

    I’m  running behind today, so mese gots to run, hehe!
