yeah  Did anyone catch a news segment on a community in some country where by gorrillas have learned to break into cars and houses in search of food?

The footage showed one of them actually going up to a car, opening the back door via the door handle, jumping in the back seat and chowing down on leftovers.

My twisted perspective on this was reminisant of spending the weekends at baseball tournaments and racing to the car cooler every 3 hours because the Pred was making me starve!  So I've come to the conclusion that the gorillas are all on steriods...that must be why they look so buff all the time and have the munchies!

What say you?

I think that I saw the same segment, but it was baboons.  I was amazed that they were so smart that they even figured out how to pop open the trunks.

I stand corrected...it was baboons. Okay...let's take this a little farther...maybe the little crooks even have CD and that's why their butts are so prominent and red too!!!! Actually, I think the butt redness has something to do with attracting a mate. Hmmmmm, never thought my red butt would be that attractive!
Note to self: Ask husband.

Gail-

Hanging around in my tree tonight. All the antibiotics/percocet for the teeth are creating havoc today. Yeast infection, general weakness...feeling faint, you know the routine. I have been able to reduce the percocet today (antibiotics beginning to work) and the GP says to continue my immunosuppressives as usual. I have an appt. with the GI the day before the oral surgery that was regularly scheduled so I'm glad about that. Just trying to stay hydraded and rest as much as possible. Also, they are going to give me some IV fluids prior to the surgery. TGIF...I don't think I could have made it through another work day. I'm going to try and go to yard sales in the morning if I can wake up enough to drive. So glad you guys are here! Thanks for keeping tabs on me.

The surgery is the 3rd.

Picked up on some unexpected bonuses at the yard sales today. In addition to a vanity fair christmas red robe I bought for .50, (which I did not need),I was sporting my husband's cotton underwear briefs under my skirt. Why...you ask?... Air supply! Because the rocephen injection I took in the ER gave me an nasty yeast infection on top of increasing my probiotics and the monistat treatment I did last night gave me an allergic reaction! Men's underwear are really roomy! So glad I didn't get into a car wreck and have to explain that one!

Also, thank God I am bow-legged or I couldn't have walked the yard sales today! Things swelled so bad I had to take a benedryl to keep from growing testicles! Also, sat on a bag of frozen green peas before I left the house. (That was a first)! Figure things couldn't grow without heat! Believe I will pitch the peas...too afraid of infecting the cauldron you know.

By the time I got home the swelling had decreased some and the benedryl knocked me out on top of the percocet. Slept for 5 hours and got nothing else accomplished today!

Other booty aquired at the yard sale....2 quilting books for my mother-in-law and myself to start yet another project together and 2 throw pillow for the guest room/sewing room I've been trying to design and pull together for the last 3 months.

Why are you taking antibiotics? I probably should know this from previous threads but as you can see I currently have bats in my belfry and am not as attentive as I usually am! How was YOUR day?

Hi Glad you got out for awhile .The antibotics are for my lungs I have a chest cold and am taking all those immune suppresants, lungs not good with the emphysema. My day yesterday I went out in yard and enjoyed the sun ,Also got some stuff gathered together for the fall clean up.Tried to take tire off car to check the pads my teen and me but didn't get far as the wheel wench didn't fit the nuts. I also got my 4 by 4 under my mattress again to help with the gerd at night so had a good night with the mattress allevated. Hope you get feeling better soon. lol gail
