Congratulations to Mose & fiance.

ooh awfully young Arky.

Still. Experience has taught me that judgement doesn't necessarily improve with age so...

Felicitations to the prospective spouses (spice?) (they are going to spouse up their lives?)

Indeed, I'm a bigger eejit now than I ever was.

Congratulations to Mose and the future Mr. Mose!

It was wonderful to see Judith and Keoni and yes, we were the envy of all the other restaurant patrons since we were clearly having the best time at our table. I was proud of my mom for holding her own with some blue concoction called the Conchonga Monga that was bigger than her whole freakin' head. She finished it all with very little help from me and Judith and didn't even giggle, much less stagger. When she ordered it we were all sure we'd have to carry her out....or at least coax her down off the bar. My mom is the bomb.

Thanksgiving was great. I feel very strange that my family gatherings are so tame. We were a smaller group this year than last, only 20 of us this time around. Most of my Texas family doesn't drink --- Southern Baptists --- and while they love their football they don't get very raucus. Honestly, all the aunts and uncles and cousins etc are so sweet to one another it's likely to put outsiders into a glycemic coma.

A marvelous time was had by all. The food was great and I watched one of my two football games for the year. We missed my grandmother, of course and all the families with little kids were absent this year, but it was still a good gathering.

Benign is the word of the day--next appointment for same procedure will be three years from now.

17626. robertjayb - 11/28/2005 8:34:16 PM

That's a good word!

What were you saying in post # 17627, wonks?

17629. Ms. No - 11/28/2005 9:28:36 PM

17630. thoughtful - 11/28/2005 10:32:52 PM

I'm trying to figure out what the gray matter is around the base of that candle. Moss/lichen? Sea sponge? Volcanic rock? I can't figure out if it looks like it would be soft to the touch or scratchy. Interesting.

17633. Magoseph - 11/28/2005 11:51:46 PM

Thanks, Robert, Ms. No, Thoughtful!

Pelle, is the candle purple or blue?

17634. Ms. No - 11/29/2005 12:08:27 AM

I thought it was white.

17635. judithathome - 11/29/2005 12:32:48 AM

And I see Pelle has paper-whites abloom, too!

17636. arkymalarky - 11/29/2005 1:17:35 AM

Thanks for all the good wishes for Mose! Alistair, she'll be 22 1/2, which is young, and her b/f will be 27 or 28. I was 24, and that seems so young now.

17637. arkymalarky - 11/29/2005 1:18:33 AM

Great to hear you had good results, Mags, and whatever the procedure, it sounds good not to have another one for three years.

17638. PelleNilsson - 11/29/2005 7:59:23 AM

The gray thing is moss which I picked last week.

The candle is white. Both pictures came out a bit darker than I intended.

17639. Macnas - 11/29/2005 10:28:54 AM

Mago,

Good on you girl.

17640. thoughtful - 11/29/2005 4:43:45 PM

22 is a great age to get married....I was 22 when i married.
