Red-Ringed Tupperware Party with (ineffective) Tin Foil Hats (2)

I'm back in my flat after a couple of days with my parents. I've exchanged money for Euro (bloody high rate) and will be pretty broke by the end of this month.

I also had some photos printed from the boudoir shot, just so I can see what they'll look like in print. I liked it, so now I don't feel so scared about uploading the photos when in Ireland and having them sent straight to the client. Phew!

I'm not in the throws of packing and ordering a taxi for 4.45am. Plane leaves at 6.45am which means you'll find a narcoleptic penguin at the airport around 5.30. Let's hope some nice cute guy sees me sleeping and kicks me so I won't miss my plane.

I did pretty well on the milk test except for identifying the breeds...I only got one of those right. I also guessed wrong on the amount of water a cow drinks, and I didn't get the last question.

Pretty much the same as me. I did terrible at identifying them, with only one of those right. I got most of the questions about milk and butter correct.

I take lots of pictures of cows. That doesn't mean I know anything about 'em...

I should have done better, though. I was born in Wisconsin (America's Dairyland), and I had an uncle who raised dairy cattle.

I missed most of the breeds too. I think we both would have done better with better photos. Northern Indiana has LOTS of dairy farms, and I actually worked on one a few summers when I was a kid. I also missed the amount of water question. It seems to me like they drank a whole pool full every day!!

One duck right... Jeez I suck. Who the heck ever heard of a Wigeon anyway.

Wouldn't you really prefer the Sleeping Beauty/kiss by a handsome prince scenario?

Depends, do you mean the Disney's Sleeping Beauty or the Anne Rice one?

I'm an incurable romantic, Claire. Let's go with the Disney version.

BTW, on the duck test, I got 4 right. They all looked like Mallards to me.

OK, sleep time. later all!

Happy Birthday Tom!!!

Moooooooooorning everyone!

Dang... I’m a freaking Hippo. Now how the heck did that stupid thing know I needed to get back on my diet. Ok, now I’m depressed. A freaking fat a$$ed hippo. Now, if I could only get out of my chair and get a bag of chips to calm me down I’d be ok but the chair arms are a little tight today.

now now Gil, the hippo does have some very "interesting" qualities

Ok Tuppers...

How much do you really know about your chosen specialist subject?

Cows: http://www.havemilk.co​m/article.asp?id=2153

Ducks: http://www.deltawaterf​owl.org …media/quizzes/m​olt/01.php

17-20 on the cows
and
6 out of 10 for the ducks and that result surprised me because I guessed on everyone except the woodduck

Yes it does, a big mouth and a fat a$$. As soon as my wife finds out I am a hippo, I will never live it down. Why, oh why could it not have been something else. Heck, I even tried to cheat and I kept coming up hippo and warthog.

5/10 Ducks
17/20 Cows

I guess I really do belong here. Moooooooo!

let her read the hippo one and she'll be fine

and I think I'd rather be a hippo than a warthog

Thanks, Kevin. Besides my world coming to an end, it really isn't a special day at all.
