The Life and Times of Larry Fortensky

Hi. It's been a while since I have been by the old homestead. I have been very busy. Making pancakes. Starting to mulch my lawn. Shaving my babies hobbit feet.

But I have a new hobby. I have been renting dogs. No not like ndspinelli does when he on the road and wants a little hanky panky.

No these are real dogs. I like how they run around and slobber and stuff. But best of all I get to pick up their poo. I love to pick up poo. You see I like to be humilated. Handling dog shit is just the tip of the iceberg.

I could tell you stories.

Maybe later.

Mock or shame?

This seems appropriate.

I am so sick with the flu I had to give up drinkin' for a few days. That's why I'm cranky.

The Dude said...

Dude, get better. And stay over on your coast, okay?

chickelit said...

We are are the festering left coast, threatening to spread eastwards.

Of course DC is already infected; it's the flyover states that have been spared so far. NYC may be hit hard. Start preventative dosage of zinc.

Airborne. Can't hurt and it tastes pretty good. Dumbplumber has caught something, so...I'm sleeping in the office and using Clorox wipes on all the door handles, refrigerator and remote controls. Probably a futile gesture.

@ Sixty. Make yourself a nice hot buttered rum and your cold will feel better. Make two and you won't give a shit if you are sick.

1 small dab of butter in a mug about a 1/2 to 3/4 tsp
1 heaping tsp brown sugar
dash (less than 1/8 tsp) of each spices, allspice, cinnamon, nutmeg..whatever kind you like.

Muddle together

Pour in two ounces of dark rum (if you don't have rum, brandy is good)

Fill mug with boiling water. Stir.

Drink and relax.

Sorry Sixty....I mean at Chicklit, who is sick. But...anyone can enjoy a nice smooth hot buttered rum anyway :-)

The Dude said...

Thanks, DBQ, but I can consume no butter and eschew rum. Other than that, sign me up!

Dust Bunny Queen said...

Do the hot brandy then and leave out the butter. Use some honey instead of the brown sugar. I also like a twist of lemon peel in the bottom. The boiling water brings out the lemon oil and aroma. You don't have to be sick to enjoy.

:-)

A shot of single malt is all the medicine I need. Which reminds me - I haven't had any in a long time. Need to set about drinking with a bit more intensity of purpose! One could fall behind!

chickelit, Do you mean the real flu..ache, fever cough? Did you get a flu shot? Ca. is one of the few states so far w/o widespread. I'm heading out there next week. Sorry for you dude, it really sucks to have the flu.

Kids. When they're sick--

--they lie on you
--cough and sneeze on you
--blow their noses into your sleeve
--wipe their hands on your face

I don't get sick because I've been exposed to EVERYTHING, up-close-and-personal.

Not sure if it's worth it.

You are a bad, bad man Troop, I spit coffee on my new keyboard.

The stench of wet dog, slavering sidekick and topic flop sweat is heavy in the air at TOP.
