False. We own embarrassing flip phones that cost $15/mo.(each!) Good enough to call and say I'm goofing off in the crafts store or to summon road service. I am too old to learn a smarty-pants phone. We also have old land line phones that date back to the '80s. The PUM is experiencing another tiresome blizzard or expecting one tomorrow. ho-hum

I hope like crazy that is false, but they've just forecast 30-degree temps and snow for this weekend. But even if it snows, the "blizzard" part will not be true. Thanks for the reminder that our temperate winters are quite nice. Yesterday we even had a visit from the Big, Bright Scary Thing in the Sky! The PUM can actually drink the water that comes out of their own tap.

Yes I can, and do, a couple of gallons each day.
The person under me would rather watch old sitcoms than anything on the current schedule (let's hear it for The Donna Reed Show!)

Every once in a while I like something on the current schedule. Other than that, old movies and series are our fare. The person under me is thinking about going to St. Paul, July 4-6, for the PHC 40th Anniversary Shin Dig.

False. But how I wish I could.
The person under me is listening to the dog snore.

Post by BoatBabe on Mar 1, 2014 9:54:15 GMT -5
False. No dogs aboard. However, a gaggle of Canada Geese are honking up a storm. The person under me just discovered that those silly sounding "Adult Gummies" are a great alternative to choking down giant calcium pills.

Post by gailkate on Mar 1, 2014 10:07:52 GMT -5
False - but she will check out calcium gummies instantly! I can't swallow pills at all, everything must be chewable, one way or another. I even have chewable fish oil gummies. The PUM has packed on 5 lbs. this winter.

Gummies are quite a gift! Who knew?!?The PUM has packed on 5 lbs. this winter. False. More like, ummmmm, seven. The PUM fought dragons during the night.

False, whether you were being metaphorical or not. Hope your dragons were slain.
The PUM watched the Oscars last night and might actually rent some of those movies.

Yes. Yes, I will.

Post by BoatBabe on Mar 4, 2014 22:37:54 GMT -5
True here, too! Watched The Oscars Sunday night and had a great time. We've decided to watch all of the nominees.
The person under me is seeing signs of Spring, like early bushes starting to flower and a few bulbs coming up.

Post by joew on Mar 5, 2014 0:50:35 GMT -5
False. But there are a few robins in the neighborhood.
The person under me will get ashes on Ash Wednesday.

Post by Gracie on Mar 5, 2014 10:24:14 GMT -5
False, but this person would like to know more about that particular part of observing faith. Share please?
The person under me is also baking chocolate chip cookies and brownies today (teenage girls will be here tonight, 'nuf said.)
|
|
|
Post by gailkate on Mar 7, 2014 0:37:08 GMT -5
False - but I ate a chocolate chip cookie yesterday. Also a piece of carrot cake and a soft-serve sundae. It was a very teenager-ish kind of day.
The PUM reads gossip tabloids in the supermarket checkout line.
|
|
|
Post by BoatBabe on Mar 7, 2014 9:54:43 GMT -5
False. They moved the gossip tabloids over to the greeting card aisle and replaced them with shelves of candy bars, dark chocolate with sea salt, truffles in dark, milk and white chocolate, chocolate with bacon and chocolate-covered peanut clusters. It's very dangerous.
The PUM let her license plate tabs expire and did not get caught.

My husband takes care of that sort of thing. Aren't I lucky? Of course, if he should drop dead, I would have to check my self into assisted living.
The PUM is wearing jeans and a sweatshirt.
|
|
|
Post by Gracie on Mar 7, 2014 21:42:41 GMT -5
False. This person is wearing her jammies. Okay, so it's a nightshirt. Pink. Printed with cupcakes.
The person under me is watching ARGO.
|
|
|
Post by BoatBabe on Mar 8, 2014 11:59:36 GMT -5
False. The person under you is listening to NPR, since it is Saturday morning now. Is ARGO good? I'm so Movie Challenged.
The person under me keeps their own Calendar of Birthdays so they don't miss one that is not in "Today's Birthdays."

False. I have been to Spain, though my first trip there was accidental. I am curious about how one would visit Spain unknowingly.
The person under me remembers who Arnold Ziffle was.
|
|
|
Post by BoatBabe on Mar 8, 2014 12:59:30 GMT -5
TRUE!!! I certainly remember Arnold Ziffel. He was a Rock Star, in his own farm, on his own TV show. The person under me has People to cook breakfast.
|
|
|
Post by Gracie on Mar 8, 2014 23:21:23 GMT -5
False. This person IS the people who cooks breakfast! and tomorrow, I do believe, will be cornmeal waffles with honey, and sausages. My sweetheart loves that and I love cooking it for him.
The person under me is the only person awake in the house.
|
|

Post by Jane on Mar 9, 2014 8:57:50 GMT -5
It's Sunday morning, and there's only one other person in the house and, yes, he is asleep. I feel like I got up very, very late what with DST and all.
The person under me has to have coffee in the morning....or DIE!
|
|
|
Post by Gracie on Mar 9, 2014 10:36:17 GMT -5
TRUE. I might even go so far as to say that if I don't have coffee in the morning, everyone ELSE dies, too ((okay, not really, they're all safe....so far...)
The person under me has absolutely nothing planned today but food, movies, books, snoozing (we took a 6 hour roadtrip yesterday....)
|
|
|
Post by BoatBabe on Mar 9, 2014 19:56:22 GMT -5
Ahhh, how I wish that were true but it wasn't. A friend's Dad died, so we took the ferry over to Bainbridge Island and attended his very sweet memorial service. I'm so glad we went. It meant a lot.
The person under me missed napping to golf today.
|
|
|
Post by joew on Mar 10, 2014 12:18:19 GMT -5
Good one, BB! It's given me an idea for a PUM
False.
The person under me has never played golf.
|
|
|
Post by Gracie on Mar 10, 2014 13:25:43 GMT -5
True. Nor has she ever wanted to.
The person under me is wondering who hid the bread flour....
|
|
|
Post by Jane on Mar 10, 2014 13:28:01 GMT -5
Oddly enough, I just got back from a golf course. A snow-covered golf course. I'm writing an article...it's called "The Mines" and is built over gypsum mines. But the manager assured me that no one has yet sunk below the surface into the under-mines.
I don't have bread flour. So I'm not wondering where it is.
The sun is shining on the PUM.

|
Post by gailkate on Mar 10, 2014 17:58:19 GMT -5
Yes! Sun and over 50degrees! But it'll get colder, then freeze, then snow/rain, then floods.
The PUM loses things - keys, receipts, appointment dates, you name it.
|
|
|
Post by BoatBabe on Mar 12, 2014 8:35:25 GMT -5
Yes and no. My things are actually sucked into the Parallel Universe, which is much better than simply being lost. The Parallel Universe is at maximum saturation, so something is always returned as something is taken. My items are usually not "lost" for long. Now I'm going to knock on unfinished wood and touch red, thus neutralizing that jinx I just made for myself. The person under me is still thinking about golf.

Post by gailkate on Mar 12, 2014 20:12:19 GMT -5
No, sorry. She and husband wanted to learn golf and both did nasty things to their backs. They have lived across from a golf course for 25 years.
The PUM would love to be a teenager again.
