    ….. swabbing the decks here….. not too bad outside this morning…. yesterday’s parade was the G-rated family parade, where everyone (about 200,000) people bring their small children and pirates give loads of beads especially for the youngsters……

    ….. next Saturday is the BIG main parade …… about 400-500,000 people will pass through my neighborhood, and the party goes all day from 10am to midnight! ending just across the bridge to downtown (which means they must all come back through my neighborhood to get to their rides home) …. the City provides ‘park & ride’, but still all must pass bye us….. most is foot traffic, where people have parked their cars all through out the South Tampa/Hyde Park neighborhoods….

    ….. I will be roping off my yard, and monitoring ‘wayward’ activity from my porch with a hose….. and since we can’t go anywhere, we just ‘join the fun’, usually hosting friends, cooking hot dogs & brats, and sipping grogg and ale all day…… the local radio stations publish their ‘Gasparilla’ soundtracks, so the whole neighborhood parties outside on their porches and in the street….. it’s a fun time!

    ….. I may be a bit bleary-eyed the next morning though! LOL

    Well the sun’s over the yardarm litter-mateys! And I feel like I’ve had too much rum and not enough Coke LOL. (I mean the soda, don’t anyone go reading anything into anything).

    Joan are you saying we’re back at AV’s next weekend for more mischief, mayhem and carousing? Sophisticated Cat suggests we travel by boat in keeping with the theme. We do have a ship-shape crew of able-furry-bodied seakits with Tux at the helm. Plus Dorry and I want to ditch the pirate gear in favour of our matching French boatneck sailor T’s. 😉

    Hi KJ – sounds like a fun time’s to be had next Saturday. I love a parade!

    So do I Joan! What with the weather scheduled to get as cold as “H” yet again some time in Fla. sounds ideal.

    Hi Buttons! Yet again I ask “Is that Nutini” we’re now seeing instead of Xmassy Buttons? If so she has such a fetching look as in “Fetch me through the wormhole for piratical prowling with Dorry”.

    Well today I could have used Hazel. I went to pick up someone’s litter and attempted to wheel the bag home in my not-so-sturdy wheely bag. Long story short – bag ripped, litter bag ripped and I left a trail of litter from the front door, in the elevator and all the way to my place. Just like “Hansel and Gretel” and the breadcrumbs only different. Spent an hour or so with dustpan/vac, still couldn’t get it all swept up especially in the elevator. Left a msg for super indicating my abject apologies, he has one of these industrial type vacs so it will get taken care of. Just didn’t want any grief as I’m the only person with a cat in bldg. Did manage to save most of the litter and reorganize it into garbage bags. Plus I’d bought a red feather interactive toy for someone just because. But still – after workout I had to workout yet again like a wench, like a skivvy, not all that much fun, with neighbours looking on amused. LOL.

    @ KJ – i NEVER have enough coke (the soda, of course)….root beer either.

    I too, love my coca cola. I even have an old CocaCola clock in my kitchen.
    I think that is Buttons’ Nutini. Adorable pic!
    So I’ve been watching football here, second championship game just started. I stand when they do the national anthem, and get a bit perturbed when they sing the wrong notes. There was just one wrong note, and I know artists like to express their creativity, but this was a big one. Just sayin’…

    Oh, sorry about the garbage, KJ. No sign of Hazel here.
    Tomorrow is a holiday for many here; banks and post offices and schools are closed, but my office is open. The business side of schools is a busy one, though it should be fairly quiet.

    Joan, I seem to spend most of my time on the *soapbox*, LOL. Just got major s**t from super for my infraction. Should have realized earlier that I was leaving a trail of litter and transfered litter into bags at entry. I apologized ad infinitum and for sure it’s not the worst thing anyone in this condo has done. I cannot lift the stupid bag. All the while I’m certain Dorry was laughing at my distress. He does love his new toy, a long red feathery thingy on a pole (purrhaps he’ll take up pole dancing?). He’s jumping at it and his grey fur looks so pretty with the red. He wants to keep his sleek bod buff for the girl kits. 😉

    lmao joan…these days wrong notes, off key and crappy singing are an epidemic. catface loves his football…me, not so much. i’m happy to let him enjoy, as long as i can enjoy other things. ah, but joan…yes….im one of those girls who will take a can coke, pepsi, shasta, thums up (indian cola) rc cola, ever brand of generic cola, and go to town. same goes with root beer. im definitely not biased about any brand.

    and when im at wendy’s, ive gotten on a new kick – my new fav meal of all time there is a triple burger, large chili fries, and huge coke or root beer depending on what pleasure they will aford me. the large soda and triple burger were long time favs, but they recently started selling chili fries too. that was one thing i missed in pa, so now i dont have to miss that. if i can find a place that sells steak sandwhich fries (fries with steak sandwich makings plopped on top) then im set.
