Moores and Peters
Category: good times
my cats are being absolutely insane right now, running all over the apartment meowing like insane little balls of crazy.

Yesterday was my Gram's 80th birthday. It was a great time that we all had and I got to see more of my fam than i have in a long time.

my meatloaf was the talk of the party. well maybe not, but it was the best meatloaf there and i talked about that a lot.

My nephew, danny, is the cutest ever. Here he is dancing to whatever music he has in his head.


We got some family shots too.

this is me and my brothers.

we are all so excited and so happy to be there. please note the beer can that is so cleverly hidden in brian's hand. (mine was in my back pocket)
we are so classy.

all in all a great time. I missed the photos of my mom and all her brothers and sisters with gram and grandpap, and didn't have my camera present for the photos of the Moores, but i'm sure somebody will send them to me.

Today is 'busy day'. day off that includes doing lots of chores.

there is three and a half pounds of loaf marinating in my fridge.

fellyconnelly - 09/23/07 11:53
truely it was a marinated meatloaf - and the best meatloaf there apparently (five different kinds there i think!)

so yes... i will consider myself a meatloaf master...

and jbeatty - we looked up a wolfgang puck meatloaf that seemed pretty insane, so i beleive it!
jbeatty - 09/22/07 16:56
I spoke with a chef once who was trying to get a job at Spago. I always thought it was pretty awesome that Wolfgang Puck told her to make him some meatloaf as part of the interview.
james - 09/22/07 11:43
you marinate a meatloaf?

truly, you are a meatloaf master!

because i have time for this...
Category: randomo
a couple of things before i run off to work.


1> Paul, Matthew or Terry! Or anyone who is in contact with any of these fellows: I left Matthew a sprint phone on the pmt porch behind the plant! i did not want to drop it into the mail slot as i assuemed that led directly to the floor, where said phone would probably be found in twenty five pieces. Somebody let me know if you actually found it!

2> Any suggestions as to where i can find about a 12" by 16" by 72" piece of foam? i need it to fill in the gap that was left after my dumb ass ordered a california king bed rather than a standard king.

3> i seemed to have missed some birthdays. theecarey happy birthday! lisabeth- happy birthday! anybody else i missed - happy birthday!

4> i'm having some pains right now. I don't feel well. eh whatcha gonna do...
fellyconnelly - 09/22/07 00:42
oh and i'm definetley going to check out FWS too!
fellyconnelly - 09/22/07 00:38
awesome. not to be neurotic, i was just afraid of somebody coming to steal it from behind the plant where it was oh so cleverly hidden.
matthew - 09/20/07 10:10
Thanks!! I found it, i really appreciate it!
james - 09/20/07 10:05
Jim works with Paul, I will give him a call.

FWS on Elmwood next to the porn shop sells foam. Though I am not sure how cheap they are.

I hope your pains go away.

healthy bullets

I just found out that several of the people that I work with are Jehovah's Witnesses. Which is fine really, as long as work remains secular. I don't want to discuss my past experiences with JW's. I might get edgy. I wouldn't be concerned, except my new manager, who I am attempting to not dislike passionately, was trying to get into a whole convo with one of the JW coworkers. The manager is a 'christian' but she seems like the type to use that word as a title rather than to actually subscribe to belief. or maybe I say that because i am already convinced that she is completely fake in everything that she does. eh... i'm a jerk, huh?

Saturday is my gramma's 80th birthday party. It looks as though all 10 of her kids will be there, but I could be wrong about that. I know that all of my siblings will be there, which will be great for a group shot. It is going to be a huge and ridiculous party.

And I am supposed to make a meatloaf. I've never made a meatloaf before. Hmm this should be interesting.

Also we watched the justin timberlake's HBO special last night. That guy is amazing. Who else could go from Mickey Mouse club to Boyband to pop star to hip hop/anything he wants star?
and who can dance so casually? he is my hero.

sunday we go to darien lake. until we find out that its going to rain or something.

nope! no birthdays or holidays! but the one girl i work with now goes overboard as she grew up JW and when she turned 18 she went trick or treating and already has halloween decorations up....

also they don't do blood transfusions.
jason - 09/19/07 14:13
I could be wrong but I don't think JW types celebrate birthdays or holidays as well. Sounds like a barrel of laughs!
james - 09/19/07 13:56
My mother is very Roman Catholic. She also works from home. This means that she is always the one to answer the door when the JW's knock. She told me this story where these two JW's show up and try to work their magic on her. But she says "You know, in your religion there is only enough room in heaven for x-number of people. Well, in the Catholic church there is room for EVERYONE in heaven." At which point my mom describes the look in one of the girls faces as "her eyes widened, and you can see a glimmer of hope in her!"

I like to think that she just had no logical counter-argument in a conversation devoid of logic.

And Justin Timberlake... I have to admit, the guy has something goin' on (namely good producers)

If mothers ruled the world...

we flicked past the Emmy's a few minutes ago and Sally Fields was receiving an award that was going on forever.

She started going on about the war and suddenly the cameras left her and went to a silent longshot for about 5 seconds and went back to her finishing and the people clapping.

Why exactly, Fox, would you chose to not hear Ms Fields speak about her views on the war?
fellyconnelly - 09/18/07 23:01
you really dig that jessica lansbury, don'tcha?
was it bedknobs and broomsticks?
james - 09/17/07 14:45
Ugh, I wish celebrities would use their craft to voice their political views rather than corny venues like awards shows.

Harold was so brave to voice his disapproval of the war in Iraq at the Susquwasana county fair cherry pie eating contest. Just as the crust was chewed up and crumbled down his shirt, so too are our young men and women being eaten up by this war.

Darn it! I want anti-war episodes of Murder She Wrote!
jason - 09/17/07 08:32
I think networks, in recent years, are trying to trend away from the lame, overly political elements of the award shows. They're desperate for viewers. They don't want to give people more reasons to not watch the show.

Personally, I thought the Emmys were quite good this year. I especially liked the Jersey Boys.
