The Anchorage, Part 3

[Miss B]

Oh definitely Satira. Sorry to hear you're not well. Feel better soon.

 

[Lorraine]

What a difference a day makes.

After the storm.

Hope you feel better soon, Satira.

 

[Terre]

I also hope you get better soon Satira.

Lorraine, that is a nice peaceful photo.

I wish I could call out of work but by the time I was deciding it my ride to work was here. I am at the mall eating hot cakes as I did not have time to eat as my ride was already outside when I went to eat.

 

[Pendraia]

I want to spend the day in bed!!!

I have a cold Which explains why my throat hurt so horribly the last three days.

Needless to say, I will be rescheduling my periodontist appointment from Friday to next month.

Thanks!

Now that the cold has progressed to the runny nose stage, my throat barely hurt this morning. I can deal with a runny nose and feeling exhausted.

I work from home the next two days. Think anyone will notice if I sleep at the computer?

I hope you're better soon Satira...: )

Just got back from a trip down to Queenscliff which was very relaxing and lots of lovely views.

@Lorraine, glad you're weather has improved. : )

@Dreamer, I hope the rain stops soon for you!

Had an amusing thing this morning. Coke has brought Tab back to this part of the country and I had both the 20 year old Coke stocker and a nearly 30 year old co-worker as what it was. I decided to just say "It's one of the oldest diet sodas.".

Had a kitchen mishap yesterday which led to a conversation a little while ago which my husband describes this way:

"Me: (my usual random patter)

Her: Plbbbt! You're being silly.

Me: I'M being silly?! ME?! I'm not the one who got coffee on the ceiling and ceiling in the coffee!

Her: (bursts out laughing)

Me: Jesus CHRIST, woman, Lucille Ball couldn't have done a more zany shtick! Oh, ROOOCEEE, I'm HOOOO-oh, WHAT THE **** HAPPENED HERE?!

Her: (rolling with laughter)"

As for what happened..... Picture a restaurant grade 100 cup coffee urn with a "popcorn" style ceiling about 5' overhead and me getting distracted by something and turning it on without putting on the lid and not realizing that for about an hour.

 

[Miss B]

Sorry Terre, but you just put a smile on my face. I don't have one of those large coffee urns, but I'm sure I would've probably done the same at least once. ~shakes head giggling~

 

[Terre]

I'm still snickering over his description. Coffee on the ceiling and ceiling in the coffee.

Did you store it beside the Fresca or Mellow Yellow?

 

[Miss B]

Mellow Yellow? Now that's one I've never heard of.

 

[quietrob]

Mellow Yellow? Now that's one I've never heard of.

No? How about now?



I'm pretty certain I only drank it because it upset my parents.

 

[Terre]

Coke has the distribution contract for Dr Pepper in this area. Their 12pk section in the store has Coke at one end, Pepper at the other and a ton of odes and ends in between including both of the ones you mentioned.

 

[Miss B]

No? How about now?

No, it doesn't look familiar. Then again, I was always a 7-Up fan back in the day, and I haven't had soda of any kind in decades, as I only drink water on a daily basis.

Now, of course, you have me curious, so I'll have to check to see if my local grocery has it next time I'm there.

 

[Pendraia]

I remember mello yello...never drank it though.

 

[AlphinaNovaStar]

I do not know if I do not if I have ever had Mellow Yellow. Sounds like mountain dew which I generally did not like.

 

[Terre]

It's supposed to be kind of a Dew without the caffeine.

 

[AlphinaNovaStar]

It's supposed to be kind of a Dew without the caffeine.

Oh. Now what is the difference between Pauline and Pauline 2?

 

[Terre]

Dunno. My husband has PP2014 so he doesn't have either.

 

[quietrob]

The worst part is I thought Mello Yellow came out in the 70's. Sigh. Either way, it's another thing I'm older than.

Mello Yello was made to compete against Mountain Dew. Anyone with a funky monkey baby knows how that turned out. Kinda like New Coke or Crystal Pepsi.
