But I bet you knew that. When I got home, the first thing I did was look at the upsy downsy.
Sure enough, it was neglected.
Mr. IHaveAGreatIdea took that plant watering bulb The Mother gave me and figured he could use that to get away from watering daily.
IT DIDN'T WORK.
I told him it wouldn't work when he FIRST suggested it. But did he listen?
No, he did not. He figured he was so much smarter than me that HE was going to show ME!
Of course, he's lying about the whole thing. He says he put the bulb in there and watered, too, but I know that's a lie. And I'm angry about it because he always said it was so easy to just use the sink sprayer to water stuff.
I don't know if it can be saved, it's THAT bad. He said he'll pick up some Miracle Grow on Friday, but who knows if that will bring the plant back.
I made him bring the bulb in last night [Tuesday night] and he was bitching and moaning about how it was fine sitting in the plant, but I said that I was going to give the bulb to a friend as a gift. He said, "My mother got that for YOU. You can't just give it away."
I said, "Ah. And you gave T-bone and Spouse the 'new' Foreman grill your mother gave us for Christmas, and that is different... how?"
He didn't say another word.
I'll let you know how it goes.
Now... where were we?
Let's see... since I spent a portion of every day at The Herbowski Spa and Resort [whose motto is "We Don't Need No Stinkin' Ocean!"] in the pool, maybe I should talk about that a bit.
The Herbowskis talked about why they bought The Herbowski Spa and Resort [whose motto is "We Don't Need No Stinkin' Ocean!"]. Seems they went to Jamaica and just laid around getting ridiculously tan on the beaches there and when they spotted this piece of real estate for sale with the pool and the fence around it, they 'saw' Jamaica again. Also, it pretty much had everything they were looking for in a new abode. So, they bought it.
The pool area ==> the pool
They moved into it in November, so this summer is really the first time they are enjoying the pool. It's heated, by the way, so they are hoping to use it long after their neighbors have had to cover theirs for the winter.
Generally, each day I would sit outside until I got so freaken hot I couldn't stand it anymore. Then I would go mess around in the pool for a while. This is why I got myself burned up. When I wasn't in the pool, I was under an umbrella.
We ALL got burned to some extent. Bratsis  was wearing a suit that left her side open to the sun and thusly her bra line under her arm got burned. [Last I heard some blisters showed up. I didn't get blisters.] Buttmunch got her buns burned, and I caught a picture for you ==> red buns
Buttmunch says "Hey" to you guys ==> HEY!
We are pretty sure our hosts were messing around in the pool [if you know what I mean and I think you do] but I wasn't going to duck underwater to see. I just told them to keep the moaning and groaning down because sound really carries around there. Here's some pics of them ==> 1, 2, 3, and 4
I was going to post a picture of Bratsis but EVERY PICTURE I have of her is one where she is talking, I kid you not. Buttmunch and I got her to change her ring tone to one that says "Blah blah blah blah" when it rings and we laughed and laughed every time someone called her, it was so funny.
The Bratfambly Drunken Orgy Reunion was sparsely attended once again. Someone is not sending out the emails they PROMISED they would, but a good time was had by all nevertheless. The food was awesome, of course, because it always is.
As usual, Bratsis  made the fruit salad so I cut the grapes and also the strawberries ==> grapes etc
It is VERY important to cut from top to bottom on the grapes and not just right across the middle. This makes the biggest surface area for the dressing to cling to, of course. And it's just aesthetically pleasing.
The Herbowski Spa and Resort [whose motto is "We Don't Need No Stinkin' Ocean!"] has a most awesome grill that we put to use numerous times during our stay. Here it is ==> the grill
When we weren't cooking we were eating up the leftovers. Buttmunch is particularly good at this, by the way. Sunday morning I decided to have some of Bee's potato salad for my breakfast. After I ate [everyone was still dead asleep because they all went whoring at a bar the night before] I slipped outside for a quick cig before coming back in and cleaning up after myself. When I returned, I found a cat on the table and I said, "Get off the table!"
The cat replied, "YOU'RE NOT MY REAL MOM!"
I said it again, "GET OFF THE TABLE!" And the cat finally got down.
Cats are the same no matter where you go, I swear to God it's true.
Here are the resident cats, and you should recognize one as the one who had a baby in the closet a couple years back ==> Miss Priss and ==> Weezie
Bubba is not a pet person. He will tell you that. You don't even have to ask him. He will ask you if you want to take one of them home with you, and he will provide new bowls, litter, pans and food to go. The Cave doesn't need another mouth to feed, so I had to tell him no, but I felt really bad about it.
One night the orange one ran out the back door while someone went in [he's a fast little bugger] and there was a mad dash by Bubba to catch it. He found it in the bushes amongst the mulch, and he put it under his arm and gave each little paw a swipe to clean it off. No damned cat was gonna track shit into HIS house!
I held my laughter until he went inside because OMG, it was just too funny.
Bart, Milhouse and Bubba Jr. reside there, although we saw very little of them. Nelson moved out and is presently living with Kay's mom. He did stop by frequently to eat us out of house and home, which we appreciated. We couldn't eat all the food there was left over. Here's a pic of the main fridge, by the way [I want one like this!] ==> the fridge
I had a plan to make some toast with their toaster and report about it here, but I didn't get to it. What I DID notice though was that although FIVE people live in that house, they have only a 2-slice toaster, whereas Fiona and Shrek, who live in a 2-person household, have a four-slice toaster. Just sayin'.
Sunday, Bratsis had to go to a Reunion of the girls she went to reform school with [that's my story and I'm sticking to it!] After she left, Buttmunch remembered that she had brought a pineapple for the party and we had forgotten all about it. She brought it into the kitchen and Bubba started cutting it up. Kay was standing by, trying to figure out the best way to enjoy the pineapple and Bubba suggested that perhaps he could make some blended tropical-type drinks using it, Malibu Rum and some orange juice.
Well folks, I'm here to tell ya that Bubba said he would kick our asses with the drink and he sure did. I had two and I was pretty much stranded outside in the cabana because I didn't think I could walk. Buttmunch went inside and slept it off, the lucky bitch.
Luckily, by the time my two Aunts showed up, I was able to talk coherently again, but it was a near thing. They fell in LOVE with The Herbowski Spa and Resort [whose motto is "We Don't Need No Stinkin' Ocean!"] and said they are going to kick some Bratfambly ASSES and we WILL have a decent drunken orgy reunion there next year. You don't want to mess with old ladies because they know stuff, ya know what I mean?
And OMG I haven't yet mentioned the vampires mosquitoes. They were the worst part of the experience, and they were HUGE. [I only remembered because I have a HUGE bite on my ass that I was scratching just now. But I have them other places, too.]
Despite this ==> candle and these ==> more candles we all got gnawed on. Kay and Bubba were spraying the hell out of the yard and it helped a lot, but there's always a few wearing gas masks who make it through. And I am particularly delicious [and Bubba's mom, who dropped by, says SHE is scrumptious.]
...to be continued....
