That's cute! :lol:

Ah! Welcome Godwit. Pull up a chair... oh no, I see you've found the sofa already. I'm sure there was some reason we don't use that... it might just be the tendency to drop off the planet for a while and it might not.


Thank you, lau.

Sofa as I know, I've only dropped off the planet every waking moment of my life.

Sofa as I can sense, I have found this place to be a strange mixture of a comfy welcoming and a terrifying trial by fire.

Sofa as I can tell, I'd be happily asleep right now on this couch with my empty flagon beside me and my rented decaf heading toward its inevitable meeting with destiny if someone hadn't started pulling my leg.

Am I dreaming or is that you trying to wake me up?

Or, what are you trying to do to me?

Dear Nan:

I agree.

Thank you and cosmiccat for contributing understandable and postive comments to keep this place alive.

Toward that end, I must leave to forage up some grub as I haven't eaten anything in over 18 hours and I'm sort of hungry.

So the place is all yours, Nan!

THAT looks a bit like Blackjack Pershing! Who was definitely associated with Grandpa. But has nothing to do with me, thankfully! :wink:

Nope, my tower is round. And falling down/apart. Not even close.

Now if I can just figure out where they hide the rum.... and the winning lotto numbers. Gotta have those, too.

I suppose, on thinking about it, this café IS a pretty dangerous place. People lose their minds here... or find them... or brush them up... or down... but nobody seems to mind.

Here, myndy, myndy, myndy. Who's a pretty mind then? Sit! Would the little mind like a chocolate button? Here, I'll just cut one off my gingerbread jacket.

Oh, they are fun, aren't they. Too bad they can't stay like that forever. I particularly enjoyed when the Kid was 3 and 4 comes in a close second. :D

We had such a great time - and then society intruded. Things kinda started sliding a bit when I had to turn her over to the "education" Nazis. Who made her sit on her hands (she was bored and "fiddling" with things nearby) in kindergarten while they taught the other kids their ABCs, colors, and shapes. The kid wanted to read a book. "Not fair to the other kids" they said. Hell, how many of the other kids were reading at the third grade level if they were making them sit their and learn their shapes,colors, and ABCs!! !!

Ah, well. The damage was done and can't be undone now. :( There was only one shot at that all. And it's spent.

I have a 5 year old boy coming back to my dayhome in the fall. He was the funniest little dude, reminded me of my boys. The lady at his new dayhome gives him grief over things like talking about eyeball soup at the lunch table. It's not his fault I made him Eyeball soup and "finger" sandwiches for Halloween. So he will be back here! :D

Never heard of it 8O I've made dirt cake baked in a flower pot, with gummy worms. Is that kind of the same.
