Maybe?
Other possibilities include Bashful, Sneezy, Grumpy, Stabby, Gassy or Thorin...
I forget the names of the rest of those dwarves that got Snow White to accompany them to Erebor so they could defeat Pete's Dragon and reclaim their kingdom.
When you name a cat Bubba, you have to expect Bubba-like behavior. Has he started drinking beer and driving a pickup truck in circles in the front yard?
...hmm if its travelling by air, those two suitcases wil add 70$ to the fare.
Speaking of air travel. looks as if my plans for a late summer visit to the old hometown (Milwaukee WI) are pretty much dashed. First class fares jumped by almost 500$ since I last checked a few days ago and there is no longer the non stop flight I planned to take from Seattle. Being tall with arthritis, and circulatory issues there is no way I will let them wedge me into a "steerage class" seat where the person in front of me effectively ends up sitting in my lap when they recline. If the train with a compartment hadn't become so expensive, I'd go that way again.
...yeah I have a coffee grinder like that. As it is round, one would think they could have put a mechanism inside the bottom that reeled up the cord after it was used or made it detachable at the grinder end (like computer power cords) so it was easy to put back on the shelf.
I've actually been shopping around at second-hand stores for an old fadhioned hand cranked grinder.
Lmao. His real name is Benicio Del Gato. At the humane society, he was "Ben" and we had already decided to name our next cat Benicio. So it seemed meant to be. But after he got over his shy phase, he became a little hellion. His sister, our first cat, is very docile and awkward. He likes to mess with her and he makes the humans chase him for pets (he lets you pet him once, then takes a step forward. Rinse and repeat. He makes you work for it and it definitely feels like a power move). So his personality inspired his nickname, not the other way around.
He can also be extremely hard to catch, say if you need to take him to the vet. So I have been trying to train him to come when I call his name. I have been calling his name (Benicio) and then giving him (and his sister) treats every day for years now. Otherwise, we just call him Bubba. So basically, I'm pretty sure they both think his name means treats now.
Quick, put it back before it's missed!
...apparently "napnapping" has become a serious matter these days.
I am beginning to wonder if 90 Day Fiance goes out of its way to pick couples that seem like they have a scam going because it's more scandalous, and therefore might be better for ratings. Or are the majority of these long-distance relationships really based on one person's transparent desire to get into the country? I feel so bad for the victims. Everyone else can see it, but they can't.
Bubba the hut?
Much better than Benito Meowsolini...
Every time I see a fish in a render, I think they look so neat. So I've purchased a few. But I have never loaded one up, much less rendered one.
i'se still looking for a g8m or g3m character to play the Loki in my story.
i turned into a total cold wimp. i'm preheating my heated blanket to warm up my pillows.
got an awful sounding cough. ugh
thinkin bout 1 more browse thru the store. when i wake up the sales will be over.
how do you decide between using the g3 version or g8 version of a character?
gettin ready to play with Ktarya. wishing she had a brother. supposedly theres a way to make g8f into a male?
i got an apt with another eye dr. a vitrous specialist group. they gonna test my retina still attached. and avastin injection. is a lot cheaper than eyelia. 90 bux compared to 2k.
i cant live like this the rest of my life. cant even go food shopping by myself. i remember jaderail posting he had trouble with food shopping.
are gazebos and pavillions the same thing?
tempted to lump them in the same folder
No. Gazebos are deer-like animals with long spindly horns and live in the savannahs of Africa. Pavillions were the dogs used in salivating experiments by Pavlov. If you put them together the dogs might eat the Gazebos.
Complaint: Almost 68 yo fun is less fun than I imagined it would be.
What? Can't you take a cruise to exotic places? Oh,... um... pandemic... never mind.
Well, then how about all those exciting trips to ever more specialist doctors? Isn't that fun?
And it must be exciting to start adding prescriptions and urinary control products into your budget. I know I have great fun with that.
And what a relief it is to lose the high frequency hearing ability. Now there are so many women that I can not pay attention to when they are asking me to do something. I have a ready excuse.
And that cane my father left me has finally found a purpose.
And the best gift of all is to turn on "fragile old man" mode when in public and get doors opened for me and offers to skip ahead in the grocery line when I'm spotted fumbling with a cane and a loaf of bread in one arm and a carton of milk in the other.
And head hair is no longer much of a problem. Zip, and it's gone. Easy-peasy.
We have very different definitions of the word "fun".
...cruises? You mean getting on board a floating Petri Dish for a week or so? Even before Covid, I was somewhat leery due to other outbreaks that occurred. Besides pretty much everything offered on a cruise ship you can do for less money on land (including becoming ill).
As to getting older, agreed, there are a few actual perks.
One of the best, it costs me half as much to ride the bus or tram in town. I do get a modest discount on Amtrak (which unfortunately doesn't extend to accommodations for long trips which are sort of a necessity as you get older). The local market I shop at offers a senior discount on Tuesdays. . I get also a senior discount at the cinema (whenever they open again) as well as for the symphony (whenever live performances begin again),
I also get a really nice discount for our local bikeshare service (which now has electric assisted bikes): 5$ per month membership, 20$ in ride credit ate the start of each month and only 5¢ per minute of use.
i used to think retirement would be book reading parties. book signing tours.
young handsome actors fawning on me to be in my movies.
playing video games in 3d. hover cars.
had a very different expectation for year 2036, if we survive the rise of the Ai machines.
didnt include plagues. dunno if its true, heard Mexico is having an outbreak of boobonic plague.
is that the one killed off a third of earth? and cats became overlords?
learned from a nurse, when they put you on a ventilator, lung muscles get weak from not being used.
if i get sick, i'm not gonna let them put me on a ventilator. i dont want the fear of them taking me off it.
I mainly use G8 because the G3 clothes will autofit to G8 but the G8 stuff won't autofit to G3.
Yeah, I sort of have the same opinion of cruises. The big ones. Although I did a SCUBA diving cruise for three days on a three-masted sailing ship over the Great Barrier Reef back in '95. The ship was named the "Atlantic Clipper" (yeah, the name's kinda weird for Austraila...long story). Slept in a nook near the fron... (er bow) with the exterior planks on one side of me, and a cloth curtain on the other and somebody else in the berth below me. I think they said the ship slept 32. Enough cruising for me, kinda hard to top that. https://sailing-whitsundays.com/whitsundays/atlantic-clipper
My father and step-mother did a lot of modern cruise ship cruising in the caribbean and once or twice to Alaska. I could never get over why he did it so many times. His big thrill was going through the Panama Canal.
But after a few disease ships in the news I kinda lost my tempation for it.
Regarding symphony prices. I've never encountered a senior discount for the symphony. The place I go to the most, "Chautauqua Institute", is built on old people. I think they donate their bones as foundation material. The place relies on the dust in the air getting trapped in wrinkled skin and removed when the oldies go home. However, every Sunday is free admitance to everybody but the only things going on Sunday are church services, religion lectures, and on the 4th of July a free concert of the same hackneyed stars & stripes types of songs traditional there since the late 1800s. I.e. just perfect for ancient people who don't think out of the box. If you want the really good stuff (proper symphonies, real opera, art & culture classes, celebrity lectures, etc.) you have come during the week and pay money. Which is as it should be.
Edited to add: OMG I checked out the website for the "Atlantic Clipper". Yeah, it's the same ship but the experience seems totally different. When I took that trip there was no giant slide or partying hoards of teenyboppers. We were all SCUBA divers in our 30s or 40s (I was 47) No Jetboat, no Banana boat, no spa, no airconditioning. No dance floor covered by a tent. No ugly addition to the stern that ruins the lines of what was once a beautiful example of a proper sailing ship. It wasn't a party boat for children, it was a serious dive boat for adults. What a letdown. Sorry for recommending it.
cookin one of my favorites. mashed taters with melty cheddar on top. lil dollop of sour cream. yumma
and a tall cold one of ginger ale.
