Bahamian for no manners.

[trystan]

oh yeah, i figured it out.  it's a good one.

[Lagie]

It is, isn't it? I like it.

 

I wonder what the occasion is for fireworks?

[trystan]

 

 

just because they can? i hear fireworks here from time to time too.... for no apparent occasion. *sigh*

[Lagie]

Possibly. They were short, though. And the music has now stopped.

[trystan]

this is a good thing, yes?

Where I live it's to make small yappy car-chasing dogs scram.

Aww. I always feel sorry for the dogs when fireworks are happening. We have so many on this island that go missing at New Year's and Halloween.

 

Good morning, CPA!

*sets out coffee, teas, juices, apples, brownies, and bacon and eggs*

 

The rain stopped, thank goodness. We have an outdoor jewellery sale today.

[trystan]

we had a fun night last night, and by "fun" i mean "let's not do that again"-

 

Blackie is our indoor/outdoor cat.  he likes to protest pee on things, mainly the tablecloth.... so before he actually does this, we let him outside to use the "outdoor litterbox" (aka our yard).... and last night, Harvey thought he wanted to go outside too.  he mostly cowered under the table on our back deck, meowing, because he was scared and didn't know where he was.  we shook the treats container at him, hubby was outside with him, making sure he didn't get spooked and really run off... Harvey is one of the cats that won't let us pick him up, so this was awkward.  younger daughter suggested getting him to follow after the laser pointer that he loves, but i think he was too scared.  eventually, hubby was somehow able to get Harvey off our back deck, and i suddenly heard his loud meow at the back door, which i opened wide enough and he came running back in! yaay!!  

 

i had to close the brothers in our office, because they would be all over the back door and the one window we opened that looks out onto the deck, thinking he might want to jump up into the house that way.

 

oh, and it was starting to rain too

 

wow, that was not the night (? it was just after midnight when all this started lol) i planned to have  

[purplehaze]

Good morning, CPA!

 

That does sound like tons of fun, @trystan!

 

How am I ever going to remember all the new breed names that came with the replacements? Yikes! I have already been having trouble for at least the last year getting the new release names straight. Just too many dragon names for this old brain to hold! Sooooooooooo many dragons! And now I just found out that some of the egg descriptions changed, as well!

This is a pack of little opportunistic nuisances. It's not good to have a pack running around whatever their size.

yeah, that works.  

[Long_Before_Sunrise]

That's very different, but it certainly suits this dragon's name: https://dragcave.net/view/CHqgD

That's an awkward looking pose: https://dragcave.net/view/40AVQ I like the shininess, though

😕 https://dragcave.net/view/0yseJ  This was a stong looking dragon before. The frozen hatchling is cuter, though. https://dragcave.net/view/pPxry

Mistlets look good.

Seawyrms look good.

Serrati - I like them better.

Female Sophrosyne looks sweet, the male - I'm undecided because of the stripes

Female Tideweaver looks good, the male looks a bit undead. https://dragcave.net/view/3VF8f

Sunbeam looks good. https://dragcave.net/view/WOMoN

Moonglow - looks unfinished https://dragcave.net/view/1KmLo

 

At least it'll bring new demands for these breeds, especially Serrati.

so.... all my dragons are updated on my spreadsheet and relocated on my scroll.  didn't take as long as i thought it might.

How can you be sure it's a zyu then?

[Lagie]

The rain it came, it went, we survived.

My volunteer whose husband has Covid has to leave and an hour later we received a message she's taken him to the hospital.

I hope he's going to be okay.

 

I like the new Serrati, sunbeam, Moonglow. The rest will grow on me, I'm sure.

New game.

On a scale of 1-10, what are the odds of that chili seeking revenge on me?

Um... good?

Do you often have chili issues?

 

We almost had a better day with the jewellery than with the shop today.

Unfortunately, I think the odds are good, too. And the answer to second questions is 'No, but don't count on it.'

 

*looks suspiciously at the succulent 'candy'*

I'm not real familiar with succulents, but they look like 'hens and biddies' to me.

To me, too.

 

My aloes are doing well outside, and some thing that I received in a coffee mug that now sprawls out of four plant pots. You can see the ends of it here (ignore the drunken cat...):

Glad you said drunk, because I associate that pose with 'dead.'

I haven't had a lot of luck with growing aloe vera here. My luck with rosemary is worse...yet six miles away is a decades old thriving rosemary shrub.... .... ....

I'm doing something wrong, but what?
