No one deserves that kind of ill treatment. And on
the first meeting, no less! I hope Skye_ds gives the

against The Rubber Pig will probably help mend fences between
you and Skye_ds!! Win win! (sort of?)
I am glad Elaine is going to have a frank talk with
Aunt L. That should help. Elaine seems like a very
compassionate person, but someone who also has a lot
of sense. Plus, if she is Aunt L's best friend, I am
sure Aunt L will carefully consider what Elaine has to
say.
I have SO MANY happy thoughts crashing around in my
head. Like little lovey bumper cars. :) He's
finished White Noise. He liked it and says that
there are some things he "wants to discuss with me."
How cute is that?! All of these booky discussions
over cocktails & dinner, and then we get to go home
and shag like viagra-popping monkeys.

The Rubber Pig is pretty much living proof of my least-favorite
saying "Oh, well, it could be worse"...I was thinking
in terms of sineater could be involved with an illegal
substance abuser or a prolific breeder, but instead
Fate hands us The Rubber Pig & Brother A.
"viagra popping monkeys"--heehee :) That's so cute &
funny!

J-Law:
Yeah, you're right. You're better than that.
I nicked that little gem from Cosmopolitan, actually.
A new phrase for your lexicon, all the way from Bolton,
England: "acting the rubber pig," i.e., not working, malfunctioning,
acting in a way that is stupid or doesn't make sense.
The copier is acting the rubber pig. Repair it forthwith!

I'm not sure I can fit the rubber pig in bit and have
it sound natural. But I'll give it a try. I do like
it. And maybe it's a good codeword for my fake-SIL. :P
Happy thoughts happy thoughts. I am starting my
sangria tomorrow. Give it a couple of days to blend
all the flavors & get the fruit slices good &
marinated :)
