October is gonna be SWEEEEET 'round here!!!

[flvegan]

(knock wood, etc)

Got the house to myself for the most part.

The nights...it's gonna be me, the tele, all the beer I want...hells yes.

If I didn't have to work, it'd be perfect.

DU, you have my love but also my sincere pity for the next 30.

Hey, all you hawt chicks, c'mon over. I've got the sweet wine, chilling in a box.

Red, white, rose...blush. Come...enjoy.

1. My dear flvegan....

I wonder who'll show up?

Not me, sorry, sweetie...

I'm up to my eyeballs in alligators!

Have a great month!

:evilgrin:

[flvegan]

3. I was SO going for that "the Ladies Man" guy from SNL.

I missed.

Alligators?

[CaliforniaPeggy]

6. It's an old expression I heard a number of years ago...

A builder I know says it...

And he is always extremely busy!

13. Peg, it's an old Army Corps of Engineers saying:

"When you're up to your ass in alligators, it's hard to remember that you came here to drain the swamp."

2. Boxed wine? I can hear Midlodemocrat grabbing her car keys as I post

:D

[flvegan]

4. "Blush in a box" is her mating call.

If the minivan is rockin' don't come knockin'.

That's all I'm saying.

[sasquatch]

8. HAHAHAHA!!

:rofl:

[Midlodemocrat]

20. .

:eyes:

LM would kick my ass.

[sasquatch]

21. Just throw her a spacebag too!

:D
Problem is you'll need to lock TM up somewhere to keep matcom and his wine coolers away from her.

[LeftyMom]

22. nuh uh

I'd kick HIS ass. :D

[Fran Kubelik]

5. I would but there's a vegan in California who would kill me

:scared:

[flvegan]

7. Awww...

c'mon...

What some folks don't know, won't hurt either of us.

What happens in flvegas, STAYS in flvegas.

I'm so dead.

[Redstone]

9. Dude, what? I just KNOW I'm missing something, reading this post. I guess that's

what happens when I'm not around here very much lately.

You + tele + beer sounds like an enjoyable formula for ONE night maybe, just for a break in the action, but for a whole month? Not all that fulfilling, I'd think.

Let me know what I'm not getting here, would you? You don't sound like yourself.

11. 'Tis freedom.

I won't, but if I WANTED to, I could be a big ole tv/beer slob all month long. Just knowing that I COULD is liberating.

Sadly, reality doesn't allow nor request it.

Dammit.

[Redstone]

15. I had that freedom for about 15 years. Dang, it was fun, but I'd rather not be

flying solo nowadays.

Those one or two evenings a month when Mrs R is working and the Little Guy is off doing his stuff with his pals are OK (hey, I can watch that Beany & Cecil DVD without anyone asking me why I think those cartoons are so funny), but once in a while is plenty enough.

But then again, I spend all of my workdays solo, and that's plenty enough time living in my own head...THERE's a place where enough time spent is always too much.

10. And you owe it all to your 10% DU theory.

It hold true to this day.

Enjoy the royalties!

[flvegan]

12. You know it.

My 10% theory is quite steadfast.

[LeftyMom]

18. Remember: couch tater nights need mexican food.

You should make fajitas. And overnight some to me.

[Whoa_Nelly]

19. oh oh ooooh......!

[redqueen]

23. Mmmmm... boxed wine?
