Caturday compliments from autumn-like (but only for a couple of days) and Happy Larryville, GN!

You guys are NAUGHTY!

Mac --

You’re not gonna rat us out to Santa, are you?

Much obliged for the Duracell info. Around here, it’s rare that batteries get anywhere near their expiration dates, but that unopened package was rather damning.

Bummer about the damaged devices, too.

Happy Caturday, Gerbil Nation! Mrs. Paddy and I are going to take a class in stand-up paddle-boarding later this morning. We’re both looking forward to it!

Can standup comedy be much further away?

We’ll see how much stand-up there is in proportion to comedy.

I really want a tee shirt with our current thread post. Really really bad.

We’re back and had a great time! It’s amazing what a little instruction (and paying attention to that instruction!) can do. Neither one of us fell off our boards. We spent a good hour paddling around the lake -- it will be interesting to see how sore I am tomorrow and what muscles hurt.

GOOD EVENING EVERYONE!

Greetings from autumnal and delightful Bountiful.

I sure do hope y’all are having a great day, ’cause you just know I am.

Buenas tardes, Señor Atrick, o gracious host!

We went out to teh ClanK ancestral compound today to celebrate Favorite Tall Relative’s 30th natalday. MamaK made pulled pork and baked beans (with many half-rashers of bacon!!1!!). Also provided potato salad and cake; we brought cole slaw, snark and some amusing cards.

Camraderie ensued; I quite like the whole family I acquired by getting hitched.

Favorite Small Relative Teh Younger decided that his cantankerous, misanthropic granddad would make a swell object to run into repeatedly at full speed as well as a trampoline of sorts.

Startlingly, he was correct.

*Shakes fist*

“Get off my stomach, ya hoodlum!”

(Criminy…what if I’m mellowing a teensy bit in my old age? That’s a scary, scary thought.)
