I finished the front yard and looked across at my neighbors yard across the street... <SNIP> So I went over and mowed their horrendously overgrown yard!
... either that or you come up with a new exercising regiment upon which you could do your own new info-mercial.
I feel like Chandler here! ... TOO MANY JOKES ... MUST MOCK ...
... and ya know we see right thru that Phoebe street-side toughness, don't ya?
Quote: I have some unsightly yard work that is beyond my skill set--will you come over and take out a few dead trees and help me with some overgrown bushes? I promise not to complain if Edward comes with you...
I'd have a hard time believin' anything as menial as yard chores is beyond your skill set. ... but let me oil up my blades and mosey on over ... now where did I put that oil or further yet how do I grab it?
Betsey! I, too, was watching Willy Wonka last night. Had I known you were also, I would have been right over with the popcorn! And the chocolate that Briget recommended.
Look on the bright side, Bets...you weren't shoveling snow yesterday!!! That is always a possibility out there.
Briget, you make me laugh. I think I want to be YOU when I grow up.
Wow. No tough topics lately. Shall I throw one out there and run?
Add me to the Willy Wonka list! I introduced D4 to it for the first time, and she decided that maybe she’ll run a chocolate factory when she grows up instead of her current ambition (to be a rabbit).
And Betsey…you know I LOVED your Friday night! My wheels are turning…on how I can come up with a Meredith version of the same song. GO YOU!!!

Briget, you silly girl, that's any easy one. Any type of chocolate gives me a migraine! (O.K., but I do sneak a few Dove Milk chocolates in every now and then...)
How funny that we were all watching the same movie. What's your favorite part, Mer? Mine is when Violet is talking really loud and W.W. says, "Speak a little louder,; I'm a trifle deaf in this ear." You can use that in everyday conversation, you know. I do it all the time!
"W.W."....hmmm, I'm wondering, is that anything like MR. W????
My favorite thing about the Wonka movie is beyond a doubt - the umpa loompas!! I love when they are coming around the corner in the boat and see all the umpa loompas working, and when they sing...definitely a fan of the oompas.
But, my goal for the day is to use that line in a conversation at least once. I'll report my progress.
And I'll vote for milk chocolate!

Hope this goes over better than the use of "ozone."
Great stuff for C4H. I HATE when I read your stuff and realize it was the stuff I should have said.... Looks like someone is feeling a little tougher today!!!
As much as I loved the 'ozone' concept...it fell flat, hit its head and died early. Sorry... I'll try harder with this one, though! What have I left to loose?
And as for C4H, I was only following you up without reiterating what you've already said! You were right on, sista…
Just sign me, TOUGH!
Now, go check your email!
