Room For All

I just installed a new light fixture in the kitchen. And I didn't electrocute myself. Or start a fire. It's a good day.

Good to hear that can be done. I need to install a light fixture in one of the bedrooms here.

 

[chansen]

Do I look like a dork?

Let's all take a look at your hat for a minute.

What part of "don't answer that" did you not understand?

Besides, I'd have called you for help with this project. But, no, you had to pick this week to go to Muskoka. When I could have used your assistance. Ya let me down, big time renovator and engineer man. Ya let me down big time.

Haha, and this most recent exchange in room for all warms my heart andakes me laugh out loud.

Thank you for that

 

[revsdd]

For your next bit of entertainment pleasure @revjohn and @chansen will dance the tango. Together. Over to you, boys. That will be followed by me tap dancing to John Lennon's "Imagine." Which is no easy task, let me assure you.

 

[Mendalla]

I was going to bring in a keg of draft and some steins but it looks like some drinking has already been going on.

 

[Carolla]

And to think the room used to get by on hot tea and good baking!!

 

[Northwind]

Pass me the draft. Did someone bring popcorn?

 

[Mendalla]

I'm not sure eating while watching @revsdd, @revjohn, and @chansen are dancing is a good idea. You might choke on something laughing (or get violently ill). Drinking, on the other hand, is probably mandatory.

 

[crazyheart]

Notice Mendalla didn't offer to dance.

Mmm thanks for the suggestion. A storm (mild here) woke me up from a deep sleep - the smoke has been getting to me. I'm hungry popcorn sounds perfect.
Might join in on the drinking once I'm more alert.

Too bad it is morning now. I could have offered some white wine.

Coffee is on. Some of you might need a cup when you wake up.

Last time that happened, someone called 911. Thought I was having a seizure.

Trust me, you do not want a seizure. Never had anyone mistake my seizures for dancing. Drug overdoses - yes.Once when I was down on the ground in Toronto, I overheard someone comment that they would never help a druggie.

Coffee on - thanks to Paradox. And here are some fresh strawberries - probably the last of the season.
A friend called around 5:00 Wednesday night. She'd just got home from picking; and she'd picked an extra box for me. Could she bring them over after dinner? I did a quick calculation. She'd just got home; she lives alone; no dinneer would be ready at her house. I had five chicken legs in the frying pan, a huge yam scrubbed for the microwave, some yellow beans and some coleslaw. (Luckly we weren't having leftover baked beans). So she came over, stoppping once along the way to pick up an angel food cake. Afterwards we played Scrabble (I seldom get a chance to play in real life).
And since she was helping to eat one box of strawberries, she brought a second. I'll get it out now. Through the magic of this Room it will expand so everybody can eat their full, and the angelfood cake will still be fresh. There's icecream in the freezer.

 

[Pinga]

Seeler. You are such a welcoming person.

I would love some strawberries for breakfast

[revsdd]

The wildness of last night is over. Coffee and berries sounds good, actually.

It did go a bit overboard when @revjohn got up on the table and started taking his - well, never mind. It's seared into my head and will be a source of nightmares for the rest of my life.

Have a good day all!
