Chaotic Coffee Klatch (tea also available)

Goodnight friends! Very busy today, so I haven't had time to do much more than lurk a bit.

Night, Aman!

As in, snoughplough?

I had thought about starting an audio challenge thread where non-Brits could try pronouncing some of our more ridiculously spelled place names. And then I remembered this was a porn site rather than a panel game with Stephen Fry.

Wait, this could be both! We could call it... QLIt.

Dying...

Epic poem though.

I'm picking the sounds for the buzzers...

And the episode names!

So, there's usually like 8 or so in a series, right?

Anal
Animals
Abdomens
Adam and Eve
Afternoon delight
Ampics
All-nighter
Aphrodisiacs

And so on. Don't get me started.

Today is my one day away from the office

I've had something like 4,000 days away from the office now.

 

[cascadiabound]

For swimming in, or for lying by the pool looking gorgeous in? Last friend I went swimsuit shopping with insisted on buying one of each...

I'm a swimmer. But it should look good enough to lounge in. And functional enough to go river rafting in.

 

[pumaman23]

Couldn’t catch a flight. Still want sausage though

Well let me know. I'll make some hot and fresh for you

 

[hotoldrguy]

Alright now I did my daily dose of get my bits out, how we all doing in here?

and you bits were greatly appreciated

 

[SinfuIDreams]

Awe thank you

On another topic I believe my granddaughter may have been a cat in a previous life. She has a astounding love of cardboard boxes

Morning freaky babies! Not gonna lie I fell right down an Iguana shaped tik tok rabbit hole last night, thanks to @MsNatalie99 and now I’m terrified of Iguanas.

I hope you’re all shaping up well in your evenings/afternoons as I slow roll into Thursday - which by the way is cold and overcast here in the future.

Oh no, iguanas are scary?

Also, would *love* if my future were going to be chilly & overcast. Even better if it were rainy! Then maybe the grass wouldn’t make that crunching noise when I walk on it

Not at all!

lol. I actually like iguanas, they are pretty cool. Though yes, intimidating, they are fast, that tail whip is surprisingly brutal, but they can be cool. My friend's was always so happy when it got to go swimming in the pool, it was really cute. Though yeah, fun to visit, not fun to own lol.

Heh. I was reminded of the rivet kits to build cardboard box toys

Although it's BYOB.
Bring your own box.

 

[jaF0]

Got $300 today, totally out of the blue ... unexpected.

Mom once did that - though not for playing. My sister was a teen already, and wondering a bit about the unusually small pile of Christmas presents. But there was this one huge one. And it was to her.

She opened it - and found wrinkled newspaper - and another box. She already guessed... it was boxes nested inside each other. Finally the smallest one was a tiny jewelry box, a ring or a par of earrings, don't remember exactly.

She actually enjoyed the joke.

so be responsible or buy something fun?

Stash ...... ya know ... rainey day fund.

 

[Dphillips]

Dishes - check
Kids showers - check
Kids in bed - check
Glass of crown - check
In the recliner - check

The relaxing part of the day begins!

I've been on a quest this year to acquire and stash funds. I've been chasing bank sign up bonuses for one. Open an account, complete a couple of requirements, get a bonus. Between those and a few other programs I've found and been able to participate in, I've been stashing all of those in a separate account and am up to around $2K this year alone. This one came out of the blue though, but it will also go in there.

I have one interest bearing loan that should be paid off in another two months. I made a few larger purchases of things I really needed (in part to get those bonuses) that are on 0% interest credit cards. Those are being paid down slowly while I concentrate on the one loan. Once that's gone, the money will go to the CCs and everything should be fully paid off by January or February. Some of this slush fund may go to that if necessary.

Sounds like a very good plan

I have the box from a industrial fridge lined up for Christmas

Those are perfect and hours of fun

I filled a dishwasher box with those styrofoam packaging things. I then put $100 in the box and told the kids you have to find the $100 without dumping the box.

That was pure entertainment to watch!

She's still little but her dad is making cardboard furniture to go in it and painting them all bright colours. Should be a lot of entertainment for her
