Odd when your partner posts here, too

mljm and I communicate as much by email as we do in person, and sometimes more.  It's the one place where our four year old can't interrupt a train of thought (an issue I struggle with) or try to drown out what she doesn't want to listen to.  What's wierd about posting here is that it adds yet another layer to that communication, and I'm painfully aware that someday I'm going to throw some thought online, and when I get home I'm gonna hear, "Saw your post.  Didn't occur to you to tell me first, eh Mr. Big Time Author?"  (Actually, we're a lot more passive-aggressive at my house.  I'd just wake up with a cat on my head.)

So, might as well get it out of the way, honey.  Here's something I didn't write in my morning missive: got a positively savage headache.  I know why.  A full day hunched over a serger and coverstitch machine after a dinner date with some new friends that lasted until 2:00 am Sunday morning, and a too late night last night getting a massive order ready to ship, cleaning up some in the kitchen and doing the dishes. 

Still, a good weekend for all that.  The largest order in the shop is out, the house got a good cleaning on Saturday getting ready for dinner... It's amazing what gets done when two people are united to a common goal and common love, eh rowangolightly ?

Gods, yes! It's absolutely wonderful even though we shake our heads at the size of the to-do list!

And ditto with sometimes things get said here that may not get mentioned at home first, sometimes we just forget stuff! ....but absolutely no passive-aggressive stuff here at home, Bruce and I are completely allergic to that, having both lived with it and gotten over it.

Besides, I wake up with a cat on my head most mornings anyway, as does Bruce ...Bobby prefers my pillow and her daughter loves Bruce's. There's nothing quite like purring ear-muffs.

Oh yes, indeedy I do! I used to own the whole series but the ex got custody of them. I've been eBaying for a new set since Bruce has never seen any but so far keep getting out-bid!

But I'll admit that I don't remember the particular reference...I've slept since then. (That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it.)

ok...

Elizabethan series where Blackadder inadvertently agrees to a drinking contest on the same night his rich & prudish Uncle & Aunt, the Whiteadders, are coming to dinner to discuss his inheritance. Blackadder forgets to remove his "comedy breasts" before coming back into the room w/ the relatives & his aunt mentions that he seems to be wearing a pair of "devil's dumplings."

"Oh good gracious, my earmuffs have fallen down."

Add the image of purring ones, &.....

OH gods, yes! And isn't Elizabeth shoved into the front closet, because she thought it was a masked ball and crashed the party, and they thought she was a whore in costume and mask that somebody'd hired for the evening?

I laughed so hard...and the Aunt is the same actress who plays Elizabeth's nanny. I have SO got to get that series again!
