YEAH, IT'S F R I D A Y

Today's Question(s):

What was the last "food craving" you had? Hmm,... probably revolving around chocolate


Did you resist or give in ? Wasn't easy. I resisted. Everytime I go to catch the train at Union Station, there's all kinds of food places. Cupcakes, Auntie Anne's pretzels, Ice cream, Starbuck's, and further down, McDonald's. The prices are what keeps me from going on any kind of regular basis. I sometimes save my package of carrots and peanut butter [from lunch] for the ride home and I've got my water. Every once in a while ... I claim to be a victim of those cravings.

Oh, last night almost stopped for a chocolate ice cream cone - but resisted that urge.

Temptations are everywhere.


Bonus Question:

What was the last thing you tried to do and then realized "this is why there are folks that get paid to do this" ? It would probably have to be for landscaping also. I could trim the shrub that is growing in leaps and bounds once again - but, it never comes out as good as how they do it.




Extra Credit Question:


In honor of Waffle Day

Do you have a Waffle maker in your home ? But of course
Is it a
Regular one ? <-----------
Belgian style ? They'd be the round ones, right? I don't have one of those yet.


Last time you used it ? I had just bought one of those for pancakes and have been using that lately. The waffle maker - maybe months ago, but how many , I'm not quite sure.

Today in History:

2006 - Pluto is demoted to a 'dwarf planet' Still looks pretty big to me.

Today is:
National Peach Pie Day Not a big fan of pies though but I do like peaches.
National Waffle Day
Potato Chip Day Unless they're Sun Chips, I usually give them away or don't indulge much
Single Parent Family Day One of my uncles passed away prematurely and that left his wife to raise their two sons. Hats off to her, she did a great job. Could not have been easy.
Strange Music Day How strange?
Shooting Star Day Don't forget to make that wish

I'm wishing that TS Isaac loses it's strength before coming to land.

Famous Dave's BBQ.

I can resist anything, but temptation. I plan on stopping there for supper today, on my way to the track.


Bonus Question:

Cleaning the house. I do it, occasionally, but very much dislike it. Is there a young, good looking, maid out there who will come and clean my house for free?

That's why I occasionally spend a night at a hotel. Most hotel breakfast include Belgian Waffles. I tried just walking in to the AmmericInn down the street for their free breakfast. They have some silly rule about having to stay there to get a free breakfast. Hey if you have to stay there it's not free.

Why do you suppose he didn't call them Potato Crums?

1932 - 1st transcontinental non-stop flight by a woman, Amelia Earhart
2006 - Pluto is demoted to a 'dwarf planet' And yet we still have a planet called Uranus. Tell me you didn't giggle the first time your science teacher told you there was no life on Uranus.
