When you breed one of your best mares who happens to be 16 and she lives :D Meanwhile here I am thinking "oh it's going to be her last foal" so I keep sending her to the same stud cause it works so I'm probably going to wind up with a dozen full siblings :lol: My record is 5 full siblings, but I didn't own all of them so really I have several mares tied with 4 as a record for full siblings I've bred and now add Son of a Paint x Kissin' Frogs to that list

That's just uncalled for, I'm begging them all to stop.

And after inconclusive lyme results I now have my 17th vet appointment of the year booked, yay me (FML) :lol:

My 8yr old niece spent the night and LOVES You Tube. So we have spent the night watching You Tube shows she likes. And I just have to say I've lost most of my brain cells.lol They are so stupid and I find it super creepy that there are 40 year olds running around making these videos.

So I have covid and completely lost my voice 2 days ago when my symptoms started and I tested positive. Well today here I am on a virtual urgent care visit to get some goodies to help with my symptoms, this poor doctor had to decipher my barely a whisper voice to actually like figure out what I needed. Bless her heart

In other news, my labs LOVE me being in covid jail 🤣

Ok, I have weird thoughts sometimes...this morning was one of them.

Back when I was like 17 or 19 years old, I was getting into being a little more health conscience. I stopped cooking my morning egg in Crisco and switched to olive oil, and when my egg came out of the pan I put it on a paper towel and dabbed off any excess oil...it's surprising how much can collect in the hollows of the white.

So, I doing this, this morning, looking at one divot in the egg white where some oil collected and got to wondering if me doing this for 35+ years was really worth it in the long run. So I did some math. :P

Again, I eat an egg almost every morning, with real butter, spread thin, on a piece of toast and a cup of coffee.

I think it was safe to say I was removing at least 2 teaspoon of oil a month off of 30 to 31 eggs. (I used 30 in the math).

What I came up with for oil that I didn't ingest over the years:


2 teaspoon per month for 1 year is 24 teaspoons
24 teaspoon x 35 years = 840 teaspoons which equals 17.5 cups.
17.5 cups = *drum roll*

****1 gallon + 1 1/2 cup****

Ok...that's my random weird observation about my life's accomplishments ...lol

EDIT TO ADD: In terms of potential weight gain over that time span:
1 gallon + 1 1/2 cup = 33,425 calories = approx. 9.55 pounds
(there are 3,500 calories in a pound)

Admittedly I haven’t looked at the SIM exchange for many game years, but what in tarnation?! Exchange rate of 24.0 to use $SIM to buy GP?! It used to be 10.0 was normal. My goodness! There isn’t even a GP auction happening.

It’s been like that for a year or two now, it’s really hard to find a decent deal, I check it daily since I rely on the exchange for GPs. My guess is the increase is due to the economy since covid.

I guess this does belong in the random crap thread.

???
How is it that 1 itty bitty kitty, can crap in the litter box and at the other end of the house, in the living room - you realize you might need a hazmat suit to survive the smell ?

My 3 legged kitty, Thump...does not cover up her poo! I think she has balancing issues on the 'giving' litter. And also too, she did have her leg removed when she was a 1/2 grown kitten, so it probably hurt her a lot to get into a litter box and she probably just wanted to get out and lay back down again...so she never learned or couldn't physically keep her balance while covering it.

Something to think about if you ever adopt a 3 legged cat. :P

Yeah... I'm a part of a species who's mastered the world, has high tech, has gone to the moon....and I'm finding myself daily, covering up absolutely atrocious smelling cat poop in the litter box.

She does eat dry cat food by the way, and Song has never really stunk like that. I did have a cat called Kayla that did, but at least she covered it up and the smell was swiftly gone.

And, I must say, that I am happy that my two dogs, don't look at the cat litter box as some kind of candy store.

There is something so satisfying, about working at an addictions rehab facility and seeing people go through your program and return to get hired on. It made my week and I had a happy cry about it. It's one thing to work through addiction yourself and then come to work everyday, but having your own success story patient -> employee under my wing now is amazing.

I love YouTube while traveling - there are a bunch of terrible movies people have self-written/produced, but also things like The Fifth Element (under a different name), several Transporter type movies with Jason Stratham - and lots and lots of stand-up comedy
