Can the Adults Please Smoke? Chapter 34: Good Times Galore! — Page 16

Um, after seeing the picks you guys made for Girly, you're lucky you got Billy! :-P

Who would you guys cast to play me? Coach Beast from Glee?

He must have been in his green troll phase. You're cuter.

I forgot to tell you guys about my latest adventures in birdland. Yet ANOTHER bird got stuck in the house - this time in the over-the-range exhaust hood. I was cooking dinner last night and all of a sudden there was this loud sqawking and furious flapping a wings and scurrying of little feet. Turns out he (it's always a "he" as far as I'm concerned - female birds are smarter) had been up in the exhaust fan vent and the metal was getting hot from the stovetop temps. Scared the living daylights out of me. I took the food off the stove and covered every counter top and appliance in the kitchen with plastic trash bags, then began dismanteling the exhaust hood - fan and all. TWO - not kidding, TWO - dead bird bodies fell from the fan. It was beyond gross. Every time I got near the vent where the bird was, he scooted back so I had to leave the room and wait for him to fly out. (Around this time hubby arrived home and said, "Hi hon - is dinner ready? I'm starved.Um...why are you standing in the living room with a broom in your hand and why is the sliding glass door wide open?") After 10 minutes the bird flew out and we chased it around the house until it finally flew out the door. We think we've located the air vent in the back of the house that they're using as an entrance and hubby got up on a ladder (in the pitch dark) and taped it shut. He thinks it will probably last for a least a month, but not much beyond that. Sure enough the birds were trying to pick off the tape this morning when I left the house. You'd think the smell of death would serve as a warning to them. Stupid birds.

LOL! Whatever!

Deet, Pocahontas did fall for a Brit.

Moony, that is positively revolting! Ack!
Hope the temporary fix works. You must want to have the place sterilized...

Kind of reminds me of when there was a mouse infestation in my old apartment (after a neighbor's construction). One mouse died tangled up in my dust ruffle in my bedroom, and I couldn't locate the source of the eye-watering stench. Until I was getting into bed and my toe smooshed into the decomposing body tangled up on the floor. I threw the dust ruffle in the trash, took a scalding shower and threw up for about a week.

And then I turned on my stove and the smell of dead cooked mouse permeated the kitchen. Apparently mice had gotten into the inner workings of the oven and were living in the insulation. Until I cooked them. I never used that over again. I had it ripped out and replaced.

It still makes me gag just thinking about it. I SO hope this bird adventure is behind you!!


Boobs, I remember that long-ago thread about who would play us. I can't remember who was cast as me.

Hmmm... who would we cast as Framily?

"I was cooking dinner last night"

I don't know why Moony, but that made me chuckle.

*grabs the popcorn and waits patiently for Deet to enter*

YWIW, the party may be fun...especially if they start breaking dishes on the floor...you can always just say "sorry, I meant to throw it on the floor...really."

*passes popcorn*

Remember to say "Oréa viziá."[English translation] Nice boobs!
