Mad Manatee Mentors 2013: CLOSED (exc/ Pop Tart bribes) (Page 278)

What I find funny is that this "newly" found critter has been in zoos for years!

Little did Helgen and company know, this little critter has been hiding in plain sight. For years, museum curators, zoo keepers and researchers mistook the olinguitos for their relatives, the known and named olingos.

If it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck...don't ask if it is an olinguito...

Ughhh that's how ours will be too. Not to mention I nearly ALWAYS ditch out on awards.

What's worse is that this event it's required that you take a shuttle because parking is limited which means I'll be stuck on touchy-feely island until the very end.

I'm currently researching every last option to avoid this. 

As of 3 PM today, I got an answer about what's up with my mom. This is what she told dad soon after her surgery--I am hoping that she got it right and the drugs weren't making her muddled: They did exploratory abdominal surgery this morning and ended up having to do a full hysterectemy as they found a cancerous uterine tumor. As of now, it looks like they got all of the cancer and she will not need any chemo or radiation.

I am alternating between being completely numb and crying my eyes out. she doesn't want visitors right now, so I will have to wait to talk/see her. I did leave a message on her cell, so I hope that I will hear from her soon. My dad is doing ok--all things considered, he is pretty numb as well. 

This was not AT ALL what I was expecting. I don't even know of anyone in our extended family who hashad or does have cancer....with all of us its always been heart issues. I just don't get it.

Awful news. Very glad her procedure went well and praying they did get it all and for a smooth recovery.

Coming out of the blue, I'm sure that this was very shocking and scary; but the good news is they found it.  As others have said, hoping for a smooth recovery and that they got it all.

God, I love seeing a handsome guy all stretched out on white carpet like that.  Daaaayyyyummmm.

I will be thinking of names.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY Erin!  Sounds like you've had a banner day

ride update - I stopped at the LBS to see Piglet Jae and have a coffee - got there as my DH the mailman turns up so we have a coffee together - how unexpected.

I then left to cycle home the final 10km didn't want to push my luck it was so nice I couldve ridden all day.  Anyway 2km from the LBs my chain starts making a strange noise like it's rubbing somewhere, i decide to stop and check it out - flipped the bike upside down played with gears and pedals like a pro - suddenly they won't turn any more - the chain is well and truly jammed.

No perturbed in the slightest i walked the 2km back to Jae.  some debris from the road had bounced up and stuck in the rear derailleur - turns out to be a bike computer magnet not from my bike!  What are the odds.

Jae gets his mechanic to fix up Terenzo (my bike - nearest I'll get to riding him) - they weren't busy so he gave him a full service.  Worryingly he said I was right to be cautious, had I continued riding I would have torn the derailleur off the bike and would definitely have had a nasty crash and maybe written off Terenzo,  so aren't I lucky and aren't I brave!???

Cycled the 10km home and got changed and ran 5km with Scooby.

Feels good to be out there and doing the real graceful stopping - first time ever on the road doing that.  Now I want to ride every day!

It's been a while since I've posted an undie pic of myself ... sports bra, fun undies that I often wear as bikini bottoms anyway. They remind me of Betty Designs! Pink, white, and black with skulls. Made by what I think is a local company, they do all sorts of cool clothes and swimwear too, called 69SLAM. The whole fam be fans.
