I know - the current fizzy shit blizzard (CC DeVilletm) has captured the attention of many - so much so that we've missed some important world happenings:

Yesterday was not only national pi day but also:

  • National Learn About Butterflies Day
    • Some butterflies have ears on their wings
    • They taste with their feet
    • They cannot fly if it's under 55 degrees
    • Their first job at birth is assembling the two parts of it's own proboscis.  What did you do minutes after being born?

  • National Potato Chip Day
    • I love pringles - I don't have pringles at the moment and this makes me sad
    • Mine never came with this...
    • Spoiler

Neither of which I remembered to celebrate.

Today is:

  • National Everything You Think is Wrong Day
    • Insert the snotty comment you know I'm thinking but will not type.  Make one up.
  • National Pears Helene Day
    • Apparently this is a thing people eat.  Pears, chocolate, and ice cream.  I've never had it but I approve of all of those things.

  • National Shoe the World Day
    • In celebration these are the shoes I'm wearing now..
    • Spoiler

What do you say we celebrate chip day today?  We don't have to follow their rules!  I say we reclaim today and have our own chip day like the rogues we are!

Pringles . . . yeah, no.

I'm busy celebrating the Ides of March, sorry.  Much fonder of that quote than I am of potato flakes in a can.

Can I just have the pear without the chocolate or the ice cream? I'll take some REDDI WHIP instead. And, No, I do not want homemade whipped cream. I want the stuff out of a can. It looks nicer, probably tastes the same, doesn't give me gas, and is 15 calories. No one has ever been able to tell me how many calories are in "homemade" whipped cream. 

Also, I'll take the pringles. It's the only kind of chips (other than tortilla chips) that I actually like. Plain or salt & vinegar please!

Pear Belle *Helene! hadn't thought of that in about 45 years - but it was a huge treat when I was a kid.....

(* Can't do accents on my keyboard - but if I remember correctly, it had an acute on the first e, and a grave on the second - and I don't know why I remember that :my_huh:)

Mmmm.... Dill pickle Pringles. Or Honey mustard. *wipes drool from face*

Spoiler alert--Spoiler contains a gross fact about butterflies. Choose wisely!

Spoiler

Re: butterflies. Did you know that there's a species of butterfly that drinks blood? (From open wounds in animals that are already dead.) I can't remember which species--it was on a PBS show. I really hope they never develop the ability to drink blood like a mosquito! I want butterflies to stay a symbol of lightness and beauty, not terrifying vampire butterflies!

Lastly, I'm a little jealous of your shoes, @HerNameIsBuffy. :my_biggrin:

I'm reminded of an old saying: "How can we miss you if you won't go away?" Just sayin'...

You don't provide me with entertaining memes. Just things to think about. I'm shallow. I need memes. :-P

Your blogs are interesting and thought provoking, but I'm a hard hitting news blog.  We fill different niches.

      It's also possible Joy was there and requested not to be photographed.

      Dillards 95: Next?

      That was a dreadfully extreme reaction and yes therapy needing or she's among the 1 percent of most selfish people on earth.  Joy has PPD and is getting therapy.  I can see where she mighht not go to the funeral, but support Jill in other ways.

      "Very thoughtful and intentional updates".  That's a load of bullshit.  She wanted her kitchen redone and they were willing to spend six months in a rental to have it just like Braggie wanted it.  If she'd really put thought into it, she would have arranged the kitchen so that it was more child-friendly.  She could have actually had the kitchen designed so it would be easier to prep for meals and clean up afterwards.  I see nothing like that.  It's just new knobs, distressed painting, and old furniture.   (That distressed green door is making me nuts.)  Where are the pull-outs for pan storage?  What about, you know, rounding the damn corners so your little boys aren't always cracking their skulls on the corners as they skid around the kitchen?  What about comfortable seating?  What about a pantry that's closer to the kitchen counter?  What about making the daily dinnerware easier to put away and not using shelves in the kitchen to display your mismatched bowls and cups?  And why is there a bandanna hanging right near a stove burner?

      Didn't she call them "twinbies" as a portmanteau for twin babies? Those are not babies anymore and haven't been for a while. I'm probably just being BEC about this but I do wonder if they'll be babied for as long as Janessa Rodrigues is.

      Yes, they will.  The girls are twinsies and the boys are twinbies.  Abbie thinks that's cute.  She mentioned in a story yesterday that she had to clean some poopy diapers so the boys are nearly four and she still isn't toilet training them.  They will stay babies for a couple more years.

      More proof she has a shopping problem. She sells stuff all the time. Therefore you don’t notice how much she constantly buys. 

      71F60A17-1C43-45B5-A110-45C1615EBB6A.jpeg

      More lies d from Braggie. She constantly complained about her concrete counter top because it was always chipping. She also complained about the paint on the cabinets chipping as well. She has been wanting to redo The Whole kitchen for awhile and a total gut job was not necessary at all. She lies as much as she breathes. 

      8941C41B-4AE6-45B6-A41B-E49E9E798456.jpeg

      I have to add she got two new dishwashers, a new giant fridge and a new $12,000 stove/oven. I’m sure they weren’t broken by the “flood.”
