trees, trees and more trees

drunk blogging or get nakud and cuddle with gil

It’s independence day and I am somewhat between tipsy and drunk.

Another drinking game

This time its worst case scenario (trivia game) with addition of drinks

I drank 2.5 glasses of jack (john) Daniels and a glass of peach schnapps (the vault opener) with OJ

 

My arms are still in control (since I am typing)- but my speech is weirder than usual.

Kevin wants to cuddle with me for some reason. I am afraid to drink more- since he is out of control.

We had a nice independence style meal of brawts and hamburgers.

James just farted.

Elizabeth drank too much but so far nothing embarrassing.

Kevin can’t hold his liquor

Kevin wants butt love for some reason- he has issues , I tell you!!!

Ibu can’t remember the cards we just read??? And he thinks he is sober

I wish I had a video camera

I am so going to sleep soon- and dir balak- don’t wake me up.

We are playing the couch potatoes vs. the world (Italy, new Zealand and west Asia). Kevin laughs like a drunk now, and ibu chockes.

Did you know that you have to hit an alligator in the snout and hit the shark in the eye and no the other way around? Kevin thinks it’s the other way around and this earned him with precious drinking seconds.

I just swung my arms and they are out of control- so I am getting drunk (2^nd time in 32years!!!)

Do I like sweetnems? James believes so-  btw  diet coke and jack Daniels tastes horrible

 

 

Who should I send this- my usual blog crowd, or the whole company
I better stop- my arms are getting drunk and the battery is running low

Cheers or salute or lechaieem or goodnight

 

 

 

make up session

An important part of a matza ball soup is the matza balls

That’s easy enough- use the powder –it’s quite good , read the instruction.

The issue is veggie oil. Say you have canola oil. Is Canola a vegetable? What is canola anyway? I have no idea , but that is what I used.

So after the matza balls were done. And the soup was done, extra fat was removed. I dropped them off on the patio of Inna’s (Alla’s sister) and drove east for Toronto the next day (I already wrote about that).  So after a short day with snake food and friends we drove back for the Seder, where to my surprise – my soup was well devoured , the problem with that is that I barely had 1 dish for myself. A proper kneidalach soup starts on the 2^nd big bowl, I guess I need to make another batch.

Seder here was different – people try to avoid reading in both places and get as quick as possible to the meal. The difference was in the singing. The Seder at inna’s is friends and family with lots of kids. And every year they act a little play related to Passover, with songs and music. They played the violin and piano and the quality was good, which makes one wonder what is the use for directors academy?   Btw, is there such a place as directors academy?

We toasted with the cup the my grandma gave me and I read a blessing from the other side of the passage that says go eat- I don’t remember ever reaching the 2^nd part (for the reading passages).

The evening ended with an insurance related fiasco, which I can’t disclose any details (taking the fifth and applying for the witness protection program)- actually I can , but maybe in another time.

The next evening we flew to st Louis , in a very documented 30 minutes.

It’s always fun seeing the nieces and chop chick who walks, but not yet speaks. I don’t remember if I wrote on that. I think I did.

 

Today is make up session….

 

Oh- I had a birthday with a great lunch in our favorite pancake house with my meat lovers omelet and French toast – with ice cream cake for desert , which more than half is still safely at my fridge  -  with the slide show Alla made me as an chore. I love the gift, since there is though for every detail.  You didn’t get the music attached for some reason, but there was though in that as well. Oh  –  I enjoyed the details themselvesJ.

After a needed snutch- I barely finished 5k – which is great since a month ago I finished it for the 1^st time. And on Sunday I passed the 10k mark again, in the 1^st real hot day this year (slightly burned). Thought I was struggling- I still can’t believe I made the 10.

 

So, how do you know that spring is in the air (or more correctly, how can you tell that winter ended?) the secret is in the cones. If you see orange cones on the road  –  than winter is over and road fixing (public budget wasting) season has begun. The winter’s snow falls as soon at the last cone is removed. Seeing the cones, the trees responding and beginning to bloom- amazing everywhere. I look everywhere ,but the road ahead of me.

 

Makeup session over for now

Still in debt for snake food photos, debit of the month club and the scavenger hunt….

Cheers and have a great independence day

FW: candles and trees

goodbye- the curse continues

We drove to the city of the elderly known as Youngstown.
I guess that was true once, but not anymore. The average crowed age was higher than the bands - and they have been singing from before I was born. We assumed many of them needed a supply of fresh air.
The show was great - they have lots of songs that you know, but don't know that these are the guys who sing it.
At some point they went into the crowds and walked the halls, and of course I couldn't resist the opportunity and got a shot with both of them (see attached).
My next chair neighbor asked of my origin, since I guess I have an accent while singing - she was Hungarian by the way, said we were a lovely couple - I agreed:).

But the curse struck once more as they missed my favorite song of theirs :((((((
I guess it's my fault for not managing to get a hold of the bands email - but I do have the actual thingy you use to play the guitar - from the concert - all an all a great night.

I can't access you tube from my current location (local policy - they think that listening to music while working is a waste of the employers time and money---- outrageous)
But I think this is the link to the song

Introducing a new FDA approved drug

As you may know, my lovely pharmacist is still a student (but not for long)- so she had to write a study on a new drug.

If you don’t know the scientific mumbo jumbo – this is exactly the items that each new drug has, all the properties of a proper research item- though the drug in question is of a different type.

 

Enjoy- I know I did
