Ice cream that's common here in Germany is vanilla, chocolate, strawberry and depending on the interest they added various nuts, yogurt varieties, more exotic fruits, funky stuff like peanut pretzel, chewinggum or well anything that can be called ice cream.

That’s how MrsT is. I learned a long time ago to never pick anything up by its lid, unless I want a spilled or dropped jar mess to clean up.

Yeah, but not long after hospital and a major op, and on extra very strong painkillers, I temporarily forgot. My reminder was the painful way.

Anaesthetic has an effect on you as well. Hell I was forgetting to pay for gas months after my big op.

Pineapple on pizza is like peanut butter in ice cream. The hate is just made up, either you're cool and dislike pizza Hawaii or you're not cool and like it. It's not the recipe what makes a pizza good. It's how much money and time can you spend, to find a good baker

Did you know that Hawaiian pizza was invented in... Canada?

There are plenty of ice creams you couldn't pay me enough to eat.

I drove through beautiful mountains today. I wish I'd have been able to take photos.

Nice little hotel I'm in tonight. Inexpensive, too.

One of our colleagues is getting married tomorrow so there was a mini party for him today, a big 'wedding of the year' balloon, but he wasn't too impressed with the pink bride sash, he and his partner are blokes there is no male/female thing going on so he won't have anything to do with it which is fair enough.

17 years ago today my two front teeth decided to leave and strike out on their own. Obviously they couldn't just quietly depart through the large, convenient hole in my face, they decided to punch their own exit between my top lip and nose.
To make things worse, my right shoulder joint fell out with itself and decided to seperate, causing my humerus to snap in sympathy. Other bones joined the party and a good dollop of my blood couldn't contain itself either.
All because I made a snap decision to get hit by a car... the curse of having an overly dramatic, attention seeking body.

I’m sincerely pleased that your stellar sense of humor remained intact!

As I have commented before, it was the best thing that ever happened to me (other than Lu obvs.) It got me off my backside and doing things, travelling the World, learning to dive, learning to fly, going to theatre, live music and comedy. Like most people I was sliding into middle age on autopilot, so the massive jolt it gave me (literally) really kickstarted the second half of my life, and I am grateful for it. I count April 27th as my second birthday, though nobody seems keen on buying me presents for some reason.

I can see the humerus side of that...

Earlier today TVC found someone else's cat in our house, a youngster in a collar, the most beautiful cat I have ever seen, the markings were very exotic and it looked expensive...if it were mine I wouldn't let it out.
