Is it a Tale?
by nowmercy
I grew up surrounded by “old wives tales”. For example, if you swim after eating you will drown, stretch marks can open and you will bleed to death, you die for the moment you sneeze, and so on. Now I know they come from some kind of wisdom, but they did stick with me. What about you all? What old tales still come to you? Are you passing any on? What are the most absurd? What make the most sense? And while we are at it, how about superstitions? (I can see Whabby shaking his head, no really, I SEE you Whabby lol) I still grab a button going past a cemetery and knock wood to ward off something reoccurring.
Come on, think about it..I’ll bet the nest is a veritable treasure chest of tales and superstitions.
I can hardly wait to hear them all!

Ok...I "think" I changed my picture to Bear and I at dinner last night. He looks great..I look three sheets to the wind!! Let's see if it works.

Zona - I didn't even have to use the cane!!
:-)
okay - I have five more minutes before I turn into a pumpkin!!
MEK: I got FOADED!! Crap and double crap!
MEK: I turn into a watermelon!
Yea, it worked. This will be my "owl" picture for awhile. I had a great time meeting Bear last night. We recognized each other right away and sat and talked like it had been years we had known each other. What a great guy and conversationalist he was to get acquainted with at dinner. I told him it reminded me of my old internet dating before I met my husband!
It was quite a surprise that his place of work was about 20 min from my house. I am so looking forward to his next trip. You all know I had to bring him something Bronco to try and get him swayed over to our team. I waited until the last minute and the store I went to didn't have a shirt but I was able to find him some delightful BRONCO ORANGE AND BLUE M&M's. I am not quite sure if these will make him switch from the 49er's but next time it will be a shirt and hat!!
Bear, I so enjoyed our dinner and conversation. I am very excited that I finally was able to meet my first blog buddy and to have it be Bear!!
OMFG!!!!!!!!!
WTF have you guys been doing tonight?????
I'm not even gonna bother to read the last 400+ comments~!
You freaks!
God I love you guys!
goodnight!
Dianne....
Sorry to tell you this but~~
you will never be able to "sway" our bear to our team if you get my drift~~
:-)
BARB/WA: ROFL!! G'night!
DIANNE: Love the picture..so glad you had a great time.
Barb in Wa - what do you mean you aren't going to read all of OUR comments!! how do you know we weren't talking about you!!! LOL
Nite..
Dianne - I am SO happy that you had a great time!! Isn't Bear the best??!! Bronco M&M's - GREAT idea - but I don't think anything could make him give up the niners!!
Okay - I'm off to bed!!! Just missed the last five minutes of LA Ink - I have NO idea how that happened - I was sitting RIGHT here.
Good night my friends.. I have loved these marches!! (helps if you win!! LOL)
I hope everyone has an excellent Friday!!!
MEK AND ZONA: I was trying to think up a good story on where I had been since dinner last night with Bear...but they were all too naughty to print!!! I am trying to be "adorable and sweet" so he will want to get together again soon. I also had to wait until my husband sent the picture to me and then helped me put it on this page.
Dianne Thanks for posting the picture. That's so cool that you got together with Whabbear.
That's it for me tonight. Good night all. See you tomorrow.
Good night MEK...put your feet up and REST!! Thanks for all the laughs today!
Night J/LIN! Sweet dreams of Custard!
DIANNE: You ARE adorable and sweet..!
ok..I am dead tired..so I better sign out. Hope everyone sleeps well and dreams only good dreams!
JODI: I will try to be here early for tea..no coffee please..swak!
Ok Good night to all of you that have probably already left the nest. Don't you think Bear and I look like Tina and George...sort of?

Hi K-Girl, I am still up. Why aren't you asleep yet for your long drive tomorrow?
Ok K-Girl, can't wait any longer. I hope you are safe at the "seedy" hotel. At least it has internet access. Sleep my dear, sleep...Night!
