Coffee and doughnuts are now being served in the Grotto parking lot. |

:donut:
I'm baby-sitting my three-year-old grandson this morning, so in addition to the finest medium roast Mocha Java, maple bars and cream horns, we have chocolate milk, Go-Gurt, and juice-boxes! Help yourself!

I've been thinking that it's been too long since I've had a really good fresh fruit Danish. :9
This would have been the perfect day to stay in bed, but alas, I am at the office, intermittently posting here and getting work done. I wish I could just chuck it all some days - this is one of them.
At least it's Friday. :-)

it was so hard to get out from under the blankets today and face the world. (Was up kinda late decompressing after the Austin City Council meeting.)
This would be a perfect day for sleeping in and then curling up in flannel pjs and reading a good book. Something trashy. :-)

Yeah, Dave, he speaks 7 languages, is close personal friends with the Dalai Lama and Dweezil Zappa, spent a year living in the African veldt helping UNICEF innoculate children, won an olympic bronze medal in luge. Anything else you'd like her to know? ;-)

Long enough ago that no one remembers it but still puts you in the appropriate age range.
Would you prefer it to have been singles or doubles luge?

Who was on last night? We never opened. I thought it was my night off.
I paid the power bill (ouch!! must every light in the place be on all night?) and the phone bill (who was dialing all those 1-900 numbers???) and the gas bill (I swear I'm converting the hot tub heaters to coal) and the cable bill (is it absolutely necessary to have subscriptions to EVERY porn channel?) and the insurance (why are we insured for the Apocalypse?) and Purolator (who ordered hand-made condoms from Botswana??) and UPS (yak feed??? there's a yak here??) and the bottled water people (why? nobody drinks water here - or is somebody dumping it in the pool?) and I think the health inspector's got the hots for me.

No coal, not environmentally friendly. If you want to explore solar power feel free and bring it to the next staff meeting.
Yes, we like porn. PORN ROCKS!
Because our Grotto activities are, according to Pat Robertson, actively bringing about the END TIMES.
Talk to short bus about the comdoms.
Yaks! I did NOT approve any livestock in the Grotto. Somebody better fess up or the beating will begin.
Maybe if you hit on the Culligan man he'll give us a discount.
And of course the health inspector has the hots for you after you {moderated} his {moderated}. ;-)

It was eating the shrubbery back of the south-east hot tub.
I gave it some of the yak food (I'd still like to know who ordered it) and it seems happy enough.
I checked the health code and yak's aren't considered livestock.
Can we keep it?
