well.... I don't see it here

Thanks for checking.

Winning by seeing thread titles, that I am quite certain will annoy the living daylights out of me..... and NOT opening any of them

I need some winning thread titles to appear. I could use some positive conversation.

Well... I'm not seeing it here this morning... but then I'm grumpy so I could be wrong

I'm grumpy, too. I'm sure you're not wrong.

Looks like I left my phone outside last night.

Did ET come by to "phone home"?

If your mood has improved to just grumpy, that's a positive step.

Did ET come by to "phone home"?

I would be curious to see if ET could use my phone.

My nephew couldn't figure it out.

There's buttons, no touch screen.

If your mood has improved to just grumpy, that's a positive step.

I thought grumpy sounded more dignified than 'somewhere between despair and insanity'.

"Madam" and "racecar" are palindromes. Cats are not, though they would love to be.

You need a week at a spa. If you ever start a GoFundMe, let me know and I'll chip in.

I'll bet those elephants call humans "Dumbo."

I'd settle for an in person friend that had too much time on their hands and could come over and tell me fascinating and entertaining things.

Ignoring the mess, and helping entertain Ares, so I could cook us both something fantastic to eat.

And willing to push the 'better half' around, if need be.

If I was not so grumpy I could find headlines to refute all that to justify my grumpiness..... but I'm too grumpy to care

I'm not sure anything short of a miracle will refute my grumpiness today.

I have decided to call Ares out of OT today. I do not feel like bribing him with Arby's to take him somewhere so he can do a puzzle, cut a few pieces of paper, and type a sentence on a computer. Normally, its combined with speech, so its fine, but the speech therapist is on vacation.

I am way to grumpy for the OT nonsense today.

"Madam" and "racecar" are palindromes. Cats are not, though they would love to be.

One time, I wrote racecar in uppercase letters on the whiteboard in class, and I asked my students to read it backwards. One girl stood in front of the board, looked at it backwards, and she was so shocked by it that she staggered back a step.

actually listening to this, did actually reduce my grumpiness....still grumpy..... but then it also drowned out the surrounding silliness that was making me grumpier.

The first time I was in Beijing, in my mother-in-laws house, she was a Buddhist and this was playing in her house 24/7 and at first I thought I'd have a problem with it constantly going on and on... but it actually relaxed me and after the second week, I didn't even notice it.

RF is not so different than Reddit- some good bit and some to be eschewed.

It is pretty. I'll let it play for awhile.
