Doldrums...

...I have them bad.
This pig grill might make me happy.
But I think it's a bit too expensive.
So I'll let you cheer me up.
Say something funny.
Please?

Love the grill....I think Ellen might need one of those.

Something funny....I have a question....does running ever get easier? Increased my loop to five miles yesterday and was swearing (and sweating) through most of it. Is that good?

If you need to smie...spend some time observing and taking phots of your pets today. They will make you smile.

Virginia is the ONLY state on the East Coast that is NOT suppose to get rain today.

Not funny? Sorry...that's all I got.

Daryl said...

The funniest thing I heard was on the news this morning, a woman from NYC who had flown out to L.A. to try and attend the memorial for the still dead Michael Jackson even tho she did not have a ticket. She told the interviewer she was 'hoping some nice person would give her their extra wristband/ticket' .. I laughed so hard I peed myself ... no, I didnt, I did LAUGH but I didnt pee ...

Funny enough?

My grandmother used to tell me that when I was down in the dumps, it meant I wasn't spending my time wisely,and I should scrub my floors.

I think you should go to a matinee and see something funny or raunchy.

9 days and counting! :)

Sorry, Nurse Nancy, but...every time I hear the word "exercise", I immediately have to wash my mouth out with chocolate! (Hubs got this in his e-mail, and chuckles every time he hears it.)


My actual Rx: Take a 15 minute walk in the sunshine, and eat a little dark chocolate.

Mango Girl said...

That is a FABULOUS grill! I would so go on the road with my famous brisket and potato salad with that baby! It would pay for itself in no time...

Want to go on a road trip?

Deb said...

the grill is insane! that really is life size? when I looked at it, I thought of this comment..."a pig in a poke"...i dunno why...
Something funny? Well...um...go see The Hangover...I heard it is ridiculously raunchy!
Find a puppy and squeeze him tight.
Want a good laugh? Watch the MJ production today...geez...
(((((((Lauren)))))))

...Oh girl, you need to spend the day doing things you love to do. Take a nap, read a book, enjoy some wine, take a swim, go shopping, spend time with TSAnnie & Daryl, take another nap, etc., etc., etc... ;o)

...Well, I don't have much but here we go:

1) What did the ghost say to the bee?
Boo bee!

2) What do you call two Mexicans playing basketball?
Juan on Juan

3) FYI: A herd of buffalo can move only as fast as the slowest buffalo. When the herd is hunted, it is the slowest and weakest ones at the back that are killed first.

This natural selection is good for the herd as a whole, because the general speed and health of the whole group keeps improving by the regular killing of the weakest members.

In much the same way the human brain can only operate as fast as the slowest brain cells. Excessive intake of alcohol, we all know, kills brain cells but naturally it attacks the slowest and weakest brain cells first.

In this way regular consumption of wine eliminates the weaker brain cells, making the brain a faster and more efficient machine.

That's why you always feel smarter after a few glasses of wine and that's why wine is GOOD for you!

3) How does Michael Jackson pick his nose?
From a catalogue

*insert drum roll* And last but not least:

4) Since Michael Jackson is 99% plastic, they are going to melt him down and turn him into lego blocks so that little kids can play with him for a change

*applause*giggle*snort* :oD

...Here's hoping your day gets better MPM!

...Blessings... :o)

Ummm, I'll just let you read the blog.

Love the grill!

Gin said...

You mean you didn't laugh enough when you read on my blog that my alcoholic husband and his enabling father believe that I have a mental illness because I chose to be happy despite it all?

MMMMM...you're a tough cookie. Okay how about this...

Last night my son did not want to eat the smoked chicken that I made - he hates it. He told me that he doesn't like to eat dead animals because he thinks it is wrong and that I shouldn't make him. I reminded him that he loves chicken nuggets and the new Sweet & Sour chicken that Wendy's has.

He just gave me a death look and started eating. He's only 10, but he already thinks I'm stupid.

Trisha said...

A pig grill for your next pig roast? That is a bit ironic, isn't it? The grill is really cute though!

Decadent Housewife said...

The neighbours might have something to say about your pig grill. Next thing you know there will be random cars parked here and there. But if it makes you feel better and can feed a crowd, go for it.

Meg McCormick said...

Further to Nurse Nancy's comment, I believe it was Joan Rivers who said, as soon as I see a jogger smiling, I'll try it! And I second that. Hasn't happened yet.

Smile at the thought of Blogfest, which is just around the corner!

Keetha said...

I may have already told you this one before - THAT'S how good it is - but

A mushroom walks into a bar.

The bartender says, "We don't serve your kind here."

Mushroom says, "Why not? I'm a fun guy!"

(Fungi - get it? I know! You're rolling on the floor laughing right now, right?)

:-)

mom x 2 said...

oooooo bring the pig grill to blog fest. Can you imagine what people would say if they saw you driving down the road with a huge pig behind you? bwahaahah

imbeingheldhostage said...

It took me an hour, but here's something: Yesterday in the car, Aiden (6) was admiring the windmills and he reminded me that I told him we could go up in one someday. I said, "Oh, we should've gone up while the poppies were in bloom!"

"How do you get to the top?"

"You have to climb up the steps, it's very high and you need to be very fit"

"Then how will you go up?"

Like that wasn't bad enough, he added "You might get stuck".

I'm going to go run a few miles...

A pig grill... Now THAT looks like an entertaining piece of garden furniture...

MitMoi said...

I am notoriously bad about returning phone calls.

A friend sent me an eMail the other day saying she was afraid I didn't love her anymore because I hadn't returned her messages.

I wrote back, "You are right. I don't love you ....."






"... as much as Scotch."




"But I do love you more than exercise!" :)

it made HER giggle! Hopefully you too!

Driftwood and Pumpkin said...

Don't have much funny to say, but the grill would give me nightmares. I hate pigs!

Expat No. 3699 said...

Hmm, it may be in bad taste but here goes...

You heard that Michael Jackson died from food poisoning, didn't you? He ate nine year old nuts.

Ba da bing!

Me in a swimsuit at the blogfest!

big hair envy said...

Blog Fest will feature a bunch of grown women drinking from sippy cups!! Bwahahahaha!

Did that work?

Chesapeake Bay Woman said...

That pig grill is simply outstanding.

Doldrums are usually improved by a change in scenery and the addition of wine and friends. Toss in a pair of red cowboy boots and some food and you have the makings of a good time.

In the meantime, go buy some shoes, that always makes me feel good.

A friend sent me this obituary link. You must read it:

Country Girl said...

I sent you some e-mails to cheer you up. Hope they work.
Lots of good advice here.
Please don't scrub your floors!

Something funny

Men are like:
... Chocolate Bars.
Sweet, smooth, and they usually head right for your hips.

I don't know if that's funny or just true!

abb said...

Ha BumHug!

Debbie said...

I came here to cheer up. I haven't read blog posts in weeks. I ALWAYS start here first. Does you making me smile make you smile?

Figured not. LOL. We need more. Much more. This too shall pass? Hell, that doesn't work either.

To quote you: "I got nothing"

((Hugs))

Hilary said...

That's much more than a cookout.. it's a pig out.

I'll bet Daryl peed eventually.

noble pig said...

I've seen this at the BBQ stores...you know I need this.

Sassy said...

♥ the grill.....looks like somebody is going to have to bring more home than just the bacon{$$$$} to acquire it...huh? Have you seen the movie The Proposal???? It was good for a belly laugh....my daughter took me the other day when I was feelin' lowly....
Somebody once told me....if you raise up your eyebrows...you just feel better...when they are down....you feel down...maybe just try it....I think it works sometimes for me...and trust me this last year...I have raised my eyebrows ALOT trying to feel better...hahahaha

Sassy said...

...oh forgot to say...skip the grill and just move to Arizona....you can just throw your meat out on the porch and it'll cook....suppose to hit 116* this weekend....sucketh much!!!!!

Magpie said...

I'm out of the funny right now, but I love the grill!

Suz Broughton said...

I got nothin'. Sorry. I freeze under "Say something funny" pressure. Hope you are feeling like your vivacious self again!
