    Pretending to know what's going on is how I spend most of my life

  • Reckoner67
    Reckoner67 Posts: 3,344 Member
    It’s a horror movie that was made in 2013 but made to look like a local news station Halloween program from the 80s, complete with fake old commercials and stuff

    Would you believe my mom had all our VHS tapes of skating transferred to DVD and watches them. Isn't it a bit embarrassing

    Isn't that actually really sweet? Isn't she probably proud of you?

    Isn't it hard to get out of the habit of asking only questions?

    I won't be driving anywhere. The only place I thought I might go was to skate this morning which is 2km away. I will just walk the boy to school and that's it

    My wife threatened to make the kids go stand in the school parking lot all day if school got cancelled.

    Cabin fever is real, and it's dangerous heheh.

    omg it is. hubs is away until tonight. a day of single mom with the thought of a boy home all day isn't appealing and i have a feeling hubs' return could be delayed if the weather persists.

    it is really pretty though. i shovelled the walkway a bit and it looks like sparkling sugar sprinkles you'd put on cookies or cupcakes

    I love snow, I love ice, I love cold weather. I don't even mind driving in it if the roads are empty, I just don't like driving in that weather when there's a lot of traffic on the roads.

    In other news, I'm sitting here wondering why this ibuprofin isn't helping with my headache when I look down and see them still sitting on my desk. I seem to have skipped a step

    You kinda missed the most important step, the follow through. Take the meds mister!!!

    I'm gonna take a little walk. the sidewalk cleaner just went by so i'm going to take advantage and go get cookie making supples and pay a bill

    I absolutely love ice....in a glass with my favorite beverage poured over it....

    What is your favorite beverage, Bill?
  • Bill9160
    Bill9160 Posts: 8,600 Member
    If I was forced to pick...I'd go with iced tea.
  • Reckoner67
    Reckoner67 Posts: 3,344 Member
    Sweetened or unsweetened?
  • Bill9160

    Unsweetened...or diet Arizona Green

    Even hot tea has to be unsweetened...maybe with some lemon.

    I'm a fan of both of those, for sure. My go-to is Dr. Pepper or A&W root beer, I love pop (I'm from Michigan, I'll promise not to make this a thing if nobody else does) but staying caffeine-free limits my options. THANKFULLY two of my three favorites are available sans caffeine, so yeah!

    If I'm drinking soda (or pop) it's a diet. Dr Pepper, A&W root beer or cream, Coke Zero, or Pepsi One.

    I will also do an occasional energy drink
