Pic Dump 14

It has been quite a while since I posted a Pic Dump.  I have been conflicted about stealing pics from sites I like and reposting them here without giving credit to the site I saw it originally.  I do not have a large readership at all, and no one has complained, but that thought along with the fact that the Pic Dump posts are kind of a pain in the butt to do is why there hasn't been one in a while.  I tried giving credit in the names of some of the pics, but I don't always remember to do that when I save the pic.  I also don't want to get in the habit of posting one pic at a time, that is what I do when I feel I should post something but don't have anything to say.

Aside from all that, I still have the need to save certain pics at certain times for some reason so here is another dump so I can delete the stuff off my computer.  I'm not sure if this will be the last, but I am sure it will be the last that is this big.  50 or so, you can count and tell me, lol!

As usual, some you may have seen, some are nsfw, blah, blah....Enjoy!

Well?  Do it! Then click Read More below.

A Marijuana Mother's Day

Happy Mother's Day, to my Mom and all the other mothers out there!  I won't be seeing my Mom today, but I did remember to get her extra special card sent out in time!

Not reflecting my Mom (that I'm aware of, anyway), but I read about Moms4marijuana in the paper this morning.  Moms have gotten tougher drunk driving laws passed and also enacted and repealed prohibition.  Groups like NORML are hoping that if the moms get on board laws will change sooner.  Good luck, I say.

On Mother’s Day- Sunday May 9th, 2010; the NORML Women’s Alliance will introduce you to a couple of Moms for Marijuana by highlighting several stories of mothers and grandmothers who hold their heads up high and proudly say “I am a mom for Marijuana.”
See that here.

TMOS Promo

A quick, funny plug for my favorite podcast! (kinda nsfw language)



A fan made the cartoon.  The audio is from the promo for the 'TMOS Raw' pay-shows they did recently.

Flora Flora Flora!

The plants are coming in nicely in the flowerbeds along the back of the house.  It has filled out moreso than earlier this spring or even last year(look close for this one).

The purple puffburst things, my own term, on the right are starting to bloom.  The peonies, by the drainpipe, already have buds, behind those are 3 day lilies that will bloom orangish flowers all summer.  In the center there will be three different colored Irises that we will enjoy for a relatively short time soon.  Speaking of short time, the lilacs in back (not pictured) are just about peaking, we brought some inside yesterday.  Another purple flowering plant hangs, we bought that and a nice red and white combo hanging plant for by the front door yesterday.  I planted a bunch of petunias in a big pot to go out front.  The petunias along with the hanging flowering plant out front help the look alot, in my opinion.  It looks nice out front otherwise, just kinda boring.  Also not pictured here, the lily of the valley along the garage have come back and are getting ready to bloom as well.  Blooms will be happening everywhere very soon it seems.

It may not be much overall, but it's all ours and we're loving every minute of it!

A beautiful Spring day today!  We have been cleaning house, tending to the yard, and planting and hanging plants.

Fear The Deer!

Here's Bango, the Milwaukee Bucks mascot performing a backward dunk off a 16 foot ladder recently:




Go Bucks!  If I post tomorrow it will be late.  The Bucks can win the series with a victory starting at 6:00 my time Friday evening.  I will be watching. The last time the Bucks made a splash in the postseason I was in Jamaica getting married and on my honeymoon.  I repeat, Go Bucks!

I Am A Non-Smoker...

I finished the 3-months of taking Chantix a couple weeks ago.  Since then, I have had the urge to smoke and have gained weight.  I know I have been eating more and more because I want a cigarette.  I finally shaved my chin, yet  it made no difference, I just found another one! 

It gets harder and harder to lose weight the older I get.  Most often it happens when I'm sick.  That's usually in winter and I'm usually really miserable.  Not a good diet, in all.  Gaining, on the other hand, seems to happen easily anytime, but especially now.  The most I have ever weighed happened the last time I quit smoking (for 5 months, about 2 years ago).  That was just a half stone more than I weigh now.  I do miss smoking, but not enough to start again just to lose weight.  I can breathe deeper, cough deeper and laugh deeper than I could in a long time.  Mornings I still have some clearing out to do, but it is getting easier.  My sense of smell hasn't really improved much, maybe that comes later.

Sigh.  Everything I enjoy is bad for me.  Moderation, I guess.  FML
