Linus likes to destroy them. <BR/><BR/>2. I will not be going postal on the lawyer. I kind of feel sorry for her on this deal. <BR/><BR/>3. Excellent day so far. We get to catsit Shenehneh (we haven't found her yet, but when we do, we'll catsit the hell out of her) and both Augustus and Claude made it through the night! Our advanced skills in duck disease indicates that if they make it through 2 days, they'll survive, so it looks good for them both. <BR/><BR/>4. You wouldn't believe Camille. She is a piece of work. When she doesn't like how Claude is behaving she SITS on him until he quiets down. My kind of duck. <BR/><BR/>5. Please note that the summer solstice is our wedding anniversary. Four years in! We celebrated by praising Linus Paul for being so good looking.Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05325102574718123683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22365782.post-71722005927953223112007-06-22T13:02:00.000-07:002007-06-22T13:02:00.000-07:00Hey, did Tammy's mom's place sell, or did she just...Hey, did Tammy's mom's place sell, or did she just take it off the market?Kim Binstedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01421514393818523297noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22365782.post-65571138861184325822007-06-22T12:26:00.000-07:002007-06-22T12:26:00.000-07:00Jen is a goddess, not to mention a fantastic frien...Jen is a <I>goddess</I>, not to mention a fantastic friend, and I'll throw her as many parties as she can stand. And if she decides that going postal on lawyers is the right thing to do, I'll help her hide the bodies.<BR/><BR/>A pisheeoat, I've decided, is a pig stuffed with a sheep stuffed with a goat. No puffins involved whatsoever (except in the side dishes).<BR/><BR/>I'm deeply jealous of the "My Favorite Martian" party. We celebrated summer solstice last night by leaving the window-shades open (so the bright midnight sun could shine in) and doing a puzzle.

If it involves a penguin/puffin, I'm not in. AT ALL. <BR/><BR/>3. You are a terrible poker player! Your competition must have been sloppy drunk. <BR/><BR/>4. The duck carnage continues, horribly. We lost a teenager (the sassy Veruca) the day after her vaccination, and almost lost Augustus. Still might, but he seems to be rallying. Lenny the prolific mother died today, with all but two of the ducklings. You will note that we are now raising three sets of ducks - Camille and Claude in a plastic tub in the house, Augustus on his sick/deathbed, and Violet and the toddlers in the pen. <BR/><BR/>5. No word from the lawyers. If I have to reschedule these inspections again, I'm going to go postal.Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05325102574718123683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22365782.post-81123212046085768982007-06-21T18:42:00.000-07:002007-06-21T18:42:00.000-07:00Oh, and I totally won a poker game, and got out of...Oh, and I totally won a poker game, and got out of a week of chores.
