It's Friday night! I hope you haven't forgotten that it's time for The Amazing Race! While I personally haven't forgotten it, tonight will be a bit hit or miss for me. Y'see ... I have the Cold From Hell that's been going around here on the East Coast. I can't breathe, sleep, think, etc. Tonight's updates will be the major major happenings without much detail because my mind is so fuzzy. I think I should invest in the facial tissue industries!
Plus, several of our regulars here won't be able to make it tonight.
Double whammy.

ReplyDeleteI really am not crazy about my team but they are still in it!
ReplyDeleteHey, Terry. How is the weather there?
ReplyDeleteMy team was Philiminated early. I do not like blondie.
ReplyDeleteIf I was in the race I think I would leave whatever I didn't need at the pit stop.... like clothes I had worn.
ReplyDeleteI like the couple who got on the first flight.
Hi everyone =)
ReplyDeleteMy team is also still in it, but they have flirted with last place a couple of times so I don't know for how much longer.
Hi all!! better late then never i guess....it looks like pool pick team has a few smarts..they got on that 1st plane
ReplyDeletethis a cool leg..hope they get to keep the fancy clothes
ReplyDeleteHey, David and Cheryl. Glad you are here.
ReplyDeletehi Becky and David!
ReplyDeleteI'm heeeereeee. LOL.
ReplyDeleteGot off of work early.
So, what's going on?
Monaco is so beautiful. When My husband and I were there, you'd see all these gorgeous cars and yachts. Very beautiful.
How's the weather in Texas?
Thank you for hosting Jackie. I just read you do not feel good. Hope you get better soon.
ReplyDeleteDon't just stand there. Get moving.
ReplyDeleteHey, Penny. I dodged showers going to the nursing home and then to the grocery. We had a neat young man come play his guitar and sing to the residents at lunch.
ReplyDeleteHello, all. I'll be lurking and reading.
ReplyDeleteHi Penny ,
ReplyDeletethey all got Monaco....the trucker couple who were next to last in the last leg...got smart and the airport and got them selves on standby for the first flight and got on
How is weather where the rest of you are located?
ReplyDeleteHey, Silk. Glad you could make it.
ReplyDeletebeen hot here in nc...mis 80s the last couple days
ReplyDeleteI love that commercial. The one with the couple and the "I Had the Time of My Life" song.
ReplyDeletelol...me too becky
ReplyDeleteWhat state are you in Cheryl? It sounds like here on the TX coast.
ReplyDeletenc
ReplyDeleteGet better soon Jackie. sounds like that cold is nasty You can keep it on the east coast if you will please.
ReplyDeleteI've been to that perfume factory. OMGosh, I am allergic to chemicals. I thought I was going to die with that smell. Some are okay, floral just about kill me. LOL
ReplyDeleteI am allergic to so many scents. I would be in misery.
ReplyDeleteFor the perfume, they need to neutralze the smell, then go on to the next one. Perfume chemists usually use menthol or others to make it easier to smell the next. LOL.
ReplyDeleteteh zipliners got the easy one
ReplyDeleteI hate walking into Kirklands because the store reeks of potpori.
ReplyDeleteMan, after smelling all of that, I'd be useless. LOL
ReplyDeleteof course i can say that because i dont have to do it...lol
ReplyDeleteWhen I worked at this super store, I worked in Health and Beauty. People would come in and spray perfume after perfume. Not just a little bit, but they'd give themselves baths in it. Was not good at all.
ReplyDeleteIf I had to walk across a line, then I would wet my pants the entire way. I know, TMI.
ReplyDeleteIs this a non-elim round?
ReplyDeleteEwwww. I would also be choking and gagging at the perfume factory. I don't know which perfumes I am allergic too, seems to be something in the cheap ones, but just being around someone wearing it will cause me to sneeze uncontrollably, eyes watering and start swelling up.
ReplyDeleteMe too, David. I always know what I am getting from hubby on special occasions because my perfume is not cheap.... or even reasonable.
ReplyDeletecrap...i left for a minute...howd they get to first.....did everyone else get lost
ReplyDeleteBecky,
ReplyDeleteHow are you feeling? Your mom and your husband?
Noooooooooooo.
ReplyDeleteI like these two. Darn.
ReplyDeleteOh, it's a shame that they are eliminated.
ReplyDeleteawwwwww ..how sweet...sorry to see them go
ReplyDeleteThank you for hosting, Jackie. I really appreciate it.
ReplyDeleteDarn, I didn't like who was eliminated. :-(
I do work next Wednesday and Friday. No early outs, though, with baseball. LOL
Jackie, thank you so much for hosting. Stay in this weekend and get well. Tell Vincent it is his turn to take care of you.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry I was so quiet tonight. I can barely keep my eyes open. This cold is knocking me for a loop and I haven't slept well all week ... yet worked.
