Forgive me if I'm using the term incorrectly, but what's coming to mind as a description for your statement is "silly bollocks".

Does a person need to violently shove their pelvis into the business end of a rusty bear trap to know it will ruin their weekend to do so? Probably not.

Hopefully. That could be just the thing to get it all balanced once again.

Yes, the dogs are fully aware of my issues. (At least, as much as dogs can be.) But on the other hand, they're all codependent attention junkies, so as long as I'm not shooting firearms in the house, they'll still come around for petting/baby talk that makes their tails wag because the tone of voice is pleasant/treats.

Peas, loose, piled individually and steaming.

A straight helmet is definitely the way forward, rather than sideways like before. :-)

How's your day been? The sale seems to be ticking over pleasantly enough. No major surprises, but one or two collectibles here and there.
So that's what you've been doing....

*jumps and tries to steal Stilton's helmet only for me to facehug him*

*return hug*

I hope so. I go for some more scans next week, so hopefully that will shed some light on things.

So you are all just fighting for the most attention? :-)

That sounds good. (Unless they're sweet peas. Then they're slop to give someone you dislike.)

Yep. Walk with a sideways horned helmet on long enough, especially while tired, and it's just a matter of time before you're having to repair holes in drywall.

It's been at times both dull as hell and extremely active. Fortunately, everything is done now so I can go back to sitting on my ass relatively stress-free.

Picked up three games earlier, up to 25 in total if I include grabbing Moment of Silence the day before the sale started.
What's been catching your eye?

NOLF was released, and we all partied on Endre's lawn to celebrate (with fireworks.)
Kidding. Pretty much just this. Sitting around... talking... the usual :-p

*Big hug*

That would be a very good thing. Fingers crossed.

Actually, it's them fighting for attention while I fight the urge to scream and curse after they've dug their claws into my feet while stepping on them dozens of times.

You remember what happened to Pinocchio when he told lies? He told lots of lies and he ended up getting mixed up in the wrong crowd and turned into an ass on that creepy island. Ass strangely enough means donkey, but those silly Americans use that word for arse as well. :-)

*big tired silly hug*

More like turned into a bad-ass! He smoked cigars and played pool B-| ... Sign me up for this island!! [/awesome at peer pressure] :-)

*ridiculous hug*

Thank you. I am really hoping this new stuff is just a slight side effect of everything, as the immune system acting up can be quite nasty. I will be getting some tests for that stuff as well, but my doctor is hopefully it is just an effect of everything and the lack of sleep.

They have to do something to get their own back for listening to you screaming over all those horrible games. Maybe they want a go as well but you keep hogging the computer. :-)

*makes cooing noises that resembles a puppy*

''Silly bollocks' is a term generally used for a male who is doing or has done something foolish or stupid. Colloquialisms get a pretty broad use a lot of the time, partly though laziness and partly because of the evolution of a language, so the original meaning often gets buried under all sorts of variants. But this is what I'd use it for.

As for the bear trap, I'd do my level best to keep my nuts well away, whatever the cost. :-0

So you want to be a bad-donkey? I see. You know of course that I will have to tell Owl you have been smoking and drinking? She will be so disappointed in you for smoking those horrible things. :-)

*silly hug*

Are you going all runny because you're happy or because its hot? :-)

A mix of both.
