Hi folks: Don't forget to check the last pages of the previous chat for links, comments, and all the usual twaddle. :-)
Yeah, Annette, I'm being a night owl. Trying to settle down enough to sleep. Afke is the camera person at Pete's Pond. I think that she's a character, in a lovely way.
I'm just enjoying not having to do a darn thing - lots of really old Sherlock Holmes movies on Turner Classic, but it's nice just to poke around on the web for the evening. We had Christmas dinner at 2 p.m.; then I had pie a while ago; now I'm getting hungry for real food again - maybe a bowl of cereal before I hit the sack. How was your day?
I'm just sitting here and watching the animals. I'm listening to Angels and Demons Decoded on the History Channel. It's about the conspiracy put forth in the Dan Brown book. You know Dan Brown, the guy who wrote, The DaVinci Code. (I'm glad this holiday is over, frankly.)
I did see wildebeest & little monkey things but no chickens before I disappeared. Had to look for something small for tea. Himself is vacuuming for me. One less chore before the girls etc drop in tomorrow. The turkey is in the oven - smells great. maybe we'll eat tonight and they can have scraps LOL
Diane: I started to watch that, I was interested when they started talking about dark matter and the Cern studies, then the Dan Brown book and I was wondering if they weren't stretching the connection. Then again, I didn't stick around - ended up watching a special on Ahmet Ertegun and Atlantic Records, then Sherlock. I can't stand all the crazy preparation that goes into Christmas - just the food side alone gets crazy - then you sit down to eat and the place looks like a bomb hit it and that's it for another year! Of course, in the UK they're smart and everything seems to shut down between Xmas and New Year.
AQ: Great idea! Diane and I will be right over.
For the scraps? :-)
Yeah, tonight I feel kind of like that cranky Bustard. LOL Going to do some serious re-evaluation of my life for the New Year!
I have a very interesting article about the Cern Large Hadron Collider. I will look up the link and give it to you tomorrow. You will LOVE it.
AQ: Eat that turkey all up!!!
Hey, are we going to AQ's. Wonderful!!!
Did I spot things with horns? I'm dashing back & forth between kitchen & back room (computer). Sadly I am having to sign off or there may be a crisis in kitchen. Sleep well Annette & Diane.
