I had the weather channel on this morning because…well…I like to see the weather not only here but all over the country. It makes me happy when it’s 14º here and I’m miserable to witness two feet of snow somewhere else. Knowing the sun will eventually be shining brings a tear of joy to my eye….which froze to my lashes when I kicked the dog out the back door at 6:00 a.m. so that he can go pee. For the record, the dog stuck his head out the doggie door, stood there for about seven seconds, pulled his head back into the house, looked at me like I was a total and complete moron then went back to bed.
I digress.
As ususal.
This morning, while looking at the snow covered hills of everywhere else (South Dakota, Montana, Minnesota, North Carolina, Indiana, etc.) I saw an advertisement for the Gasparilla Pirate Fest in Tampa. If my sister, SWSLLAJBSDAIDHTNTT, would answer her phone already, we’d know if we could invite ourselves to crash at her place.
Cause we’re slackers like that.
It looks like it’s going to be really crowded and I’m not one to allow strangers into my personal space BUT beer and Captain Morgan’s will be available at each and every corner so I’m thinking I may be okay. If I’m able to hijack my mother’s walker to keep the drunkards at bay I may actually enjoy myself. Can you imagine the photo ops there will be in the masses of persistently inebriated individuals clothed in tri-cornered hats and fake peg-legs? Can you? It will be like going back in time and landing upon the shores of Port Royal, Jamaica when John Rackham was plundering other vessels upon the high seas with the hopes of amassing booty. Or would that be am-assing booty? Either way, old Calico Jack boarded one too many sloops and was introduced to the gibbet.
I digress.
As ususal.
So…..after I speaking with SWSLLAJBSDAIDHTNTT to see if they will be in residence this weekend, I’ll let you know if I will be AWOL this weekend. AWOL and ARRRRRR’ing my ass off.
I digress.

Ahoy matey and say hello to the "Captain" for me.
Well I had to clickie on it and check out the photos of the event - it looks awesome!!!
I have been using the word awesome a lot lately. But I digress...
You are smokin' hot! Hope SWSLLAJ picks up soon!
Haufor all of us. I will be doing homework with the kiddies!
It's 14 degrees where you are??? What the hell???
It'll be 45 degrees here this weekend and I'm dusting off my bathing suit!
Oh and uh ARRRRRRR!
You scurvy dog.
Si. Hot!
J.
OMG... I almost sorta kinda remember parts of some of the Gasparilla weekend I went to in Tampa. Take me with you matey!!!
LOL, sounds like fun. It sucked, the 14 degree morning, didn't it? Grrr. Which rhymes with Brrrr.
I have no long johns either, nor mittens. What do we do with this cold weather? With no warm clothes? Snuggli's for us, I guess. Nice warm backless snuggli's. Stupid snugglies. Turning people into monks left and right.
But I digress. Again. ;)
Good luck matey, and make sure you have plenty of limes in your drinks because you don't want to get scurvy.
We have Pirate Fest on Tybee Island every year...and I can tell you, you will love yourself a good pirate festival!! SO much entertainment! Hope you get to go!
You do, in fact, look HAWT. And piratey. And you could fly my spinnaker anytime.
*I have NO idea what that means.*
Gar! Hope you have a great time!
I'm guessing you went. Am I right? Am I right?
I wanna go plundering!
I'll have you know that here in Minnesota after a few 40 degree days that almost all of our 2+ feet of snow is gone.
