Bad Words Go Bye-Bye

Lately, I swear too much - and I blame the interwebs and bleeped reality TV. Before those things I hardly ever swore. Now I drop f-bombs at home routinely and I'm afraid one is going to slip out in a socially inappropriate setting.

Okay - really I'm afraid that one day I will be a senile old woman, cussing & ranting my wheelchair and no one will want me around because of my nasty foul mouth. So I have decided to extinguish my swearing impulse before it is too late. Which is fu freaking hard! Who knew bad words would want out so much?

Yours Truly,
The Renewed, Refined Swami.

*pungent burp*

It was so much fun! We went to one of those fixed-price, all-you-can-eat sampler restaurants, called Akita. Everything is freshly made when you order (you can see the chefs at work) but most dishes are just a few bites in size. So you order 2-3 things, then reorder 2-3 more as soon as the first order is delivered and so on until you are stuffed.

It was way fun and a good way to try things I had never tried before. Like who knew that I would love BBQ eel!?!

Next time - I'm going to have a Squid Ball. Lol

This link may be wierd and you may have to scroll down a bit before anything shows except the sidebar - but it has lots of photos of the food if it does work.

(Okay - I can't get rid of the first restaurant. Ignore the Fuji-Ya pics and look at the second restaurant, Akita!

If Anne Bancroft Were Roadkill

Then I would sound just like her. Somehow, out of the clear blue summer sky I caught the nastiest chest cold a few days ago. *cough* *hack* *wheeze* It's really very annoying. I feel much better today and my voice is coming back - but all scratchy, like half my vocal cords are dead. Very annoying.
