Yes, of course, my inner 5-year-old can be fairly vocal on occasion :lol:

Hugs, Isabella, you're making progress, hopefully the water will get fixed soon too.

Do you have an "inner idiot"? Do you embrace it or shun it?

An excavation crew is coming tomorrow to dig 3 metres down and fix the pipe. :( :( :(

I love my Inner Idiot and my Inner Ziggy.

:lol: I only feel hunger and need to toilet when it has to happen right now.

Quiet, oh! How I long for quiet whenever it’s denied me.

Inner idiot? Don’t know: I have an outer idiot who’s pretty clueless in the moment.

Are you totally without clean water then?

Ah: I’ll take that as yes.
How long is getting your H2O back on tap expected to take?

Beautiful answer! Are your pets with you through all this mess?

Yes, I've eventually unchained my inner idiot and learned to have fun with it. I'm lucky that my wife has a very active one too and they like the same things :lol:

How would you describe it? Is it causing more mess or more fun?

Oh, dear, the outer idiot has been mentioned!

My water isn't actually shut off. I'm able to have water come in, but not go out. I could fill the bathtub but not drain it. I can drink water. I can cook with water, but have to dump the leftovers outside. Toilet use is allowed sparingly but I keep checking that I'm not on Noah's Ark afterward.

If all goes well the pipe will be repaired tomorrow, and all systems go. Then it's a matter of organising the house repairs.

Beyond the actual water mess, the worst was the fan noise and the lemon smell. I didn't want to go to a hotel, even though it would have been free.

My cat was terrified of the fans. My dog was bothered by the smell.

Do you know the Muffin Man?

I know the nursery rhyme and Ella's song, or is this something else? :?

Hope tomorrow’s work goes smoothly then. (Imagine a crossed fingers emoji here)

Never heard of the Muffin Man, think I’ll have to forgo a description for now as I have work in the morning and it’s already tomorrow.

Peace, Love and Happy Friday! :D

Good night!

Yes it's a nursery rhyme. I've always been terrified of it (and most nursery rhymes or kids' songs).

Do you own anything paisley?

Not exactly a nursery rhyme, but I've always loved "The little man who wasn't there" (Antigonish)

Not really, I don't think so.

Same q

Nope. I like more subtle prints.

Can you juggle?

Three bean bags, yes. I had to learn in a Uni acting class.

Would you advise a millennial to go to University or learn a trade?

It really depends on the Millennial.

For the most part, though, I would advise university. And try to not get student loan debt!


Same question.

It depends on the student, but I do see great value in skilled trades.

Would you be more upset if someone called you stupid, or cruel?

I would much rather be seen as stupid than cruel.

What is your favorite memory?
