The Coffee House

Aside from Dave having to be at work tomorrow no big plans. Had 5 hours and 5 minutes. Trish wanted me to be there when the buffer mechanic shows up. Messing around waiting on a call.

Buenas Dias Coffee Hosers. As to the weekend, Gary will be taking Miss Maggie to her class Saturday morning and in the late afternoon the USC-UCLA match-up. A cross-town rivalry ... lots of fun ... office buildings will sport either UCLA or USC by lighting up particular windows. Lots of Cardinal & Gold and Blue & Gold banners and signs everywhere ... shops, offices, homes ... everywhere from the beaches to the mountains. Some people have flags with Cardinal & Gold on one half and Blue & Gold on the other half, with the text dividing the halves reading "A House Divided". As a rivalry which raises its head everyday in one form or another (both schools in the same city) ... it can get pretty emotional.

Why I'll be watching:

Sam Darnold vs. Josh Rosen: What Giants fans must know
 
MLW and me loved "wanted" a two season series on Netflix about a Bonny&Clyde style friendship.

We also loved the soundtrack. Several songs. Recurrent is Jen Cloher: "Take something beautiful" ....
 
Happy Friday Hosers! (just one as I don't want to tucker myself out).

What's on the agenda this weekend folks?
Cooking! Well, shopping first for some ingredients, but it's going to be COLD around here on Sunday. So with football on the TV in the background, a big pot of turkey vegetable soup is on the agenda.

My little space heater, my trusted friend for the last 10 years in the wintertime, died today. I'd grieve except I need a replacement quickly. :lol: So that's on the agenda, too.

What about you, SharonCat?
 
Dave is home now. A call is being made to Arkansas. They gave me unemployment in 2011. Then decided they wanted it back.
We are trying to set up a cheap payment plan. It looks like it will be $20 a month for the rest of my natural life.
Tra la.

Not sure yet about Saturday. Thought that I was going to have to drive Princess and her pals to either Worcester State for the HS Volleyball state finals at 11 (1.5 hours each way plus the match time) or to Weymouth for the football division 4 state semi-final at 2 (45 mins each way + game time). But Princess texted me today that there is a "super fan" bus leaving from the school at 9am tomorrow that is going to the volleyball match then on to the football game and she and some friends were able to get tickets before it sold out. Yeay for me!!! Although I wouldn't have minded going to the football game, I'm totally ok with waiting to see if they make the finals and taking the kids to Gillette instead if they do. Since I suddenly have the day free - I'm hoping it's warm enough to get a hike in with the dog or if not will probably shop and lunch with a friend. Also going to try to finish up a few photo projects I've been working on.

Timing for the Pats game at 4:30 on Sunday is perfect for me to go out and watch with some friends at my favorite watering hole. I promised my mom I would take her to see Murder on the Orient Express this weekend so will fit that in before the game. She loves Agatha Christie.

Sorry about your trusty space heater!

LOL ... both are quality QB's ... Rosen is a classic dropback QB ... Darnold does better extending the play and finding an open receiver. I haven't watch Rosen much but Darnold has turned over the ball way too much. Lots of fumbles. But ... the big but ... while I find Darnold terribly inconsistent, especially in the earlier part of the season ... I always feel that with Darnold in the game, anything can happen (in a good way) ... and that no deficient is unsurmountable. Darnold's inconsistency runs hot and cold ... and not by games but by series. A couple of series in a row he's as cold as a cafeteria lunch ... then the next series he's on fire. More often than not, if behind in the second half/fourth quarter he just steps on the gas and wins. I really want him back for next year. The Trojans were far too undisciplined this year for a run at the title. (They had the talent but not the discipline ... hopefully Helton will be tougher on the teamwork stuff next year.)

Hey, I used to live on Weymouth Avenue. :cool-48:
 
Gary is having a Fresca and a Ham and turkey sandwich for lunch. Mary Lou is great, she buys Fresca and Cactus Cooler and Dr. Pepper in lieu of Coke, Pepsi, 7-Up or Dew.

Gary plans on making some ice cream this afternoon.

Gary has the Dyson fan, it heats, the power/output of the heat and the fan is variable, it can oscillate, the width of the fan/heat can be wide or narrow, it has a remote control, it is a HEPA filter and it looks cool (bladeless). (Sorta pricey though. :confusion:)

Fresca??? they still make that? geez that stuff was awful! lol

The white squirrel is back!! well, a white squirrel, maybe not the same one. I used to see one around and haven't in a long time and went in the kitchen and there it was, in the back yard.

There's a reason I'm not a wildlife photographer... I was at least able to grab the digital but couldn't get a good shot where it was by then (heading to the side yard). By the time I got to a better vantage point it was gone and the battery was about to die on me. The little critters know when I'm goin' for a camera.

Fresca is better with gin in it.
