Okay More Comedy club Here he is starting to get them under,, they played subliminal music and had them take deep breaths over and over again,, heck I would have hyperventilated as many times as he had them do that, here they are sleeping to the right hugging their pillow Rolling up your clothes and stick out your tongue he had them apply for a job taking a typing test and type faster and faster,, then had them lick envelopes and the envelopes got bigger and bigger eventually to 7 foot long envelopes ,, that was hilarious

at the end He made the people believe the show was over,, but had given them suggested word cue individually that would make each one of them do something different,, In talking to us,*the audience* thanking us for coming,, different words or music would prompt them to get up and do something . Like this guy got up and did the pee wee herman dance, on a certain word,, FUNNNNNNNY,,,,,,, another word would make this same guy yell I WANT NOOKIE<< 3 times,, great laughs tonight,, after the show,, Jimmy surprised Shirley and I in Buying all of us T shirts,, and having the Hypnotist Comedian sign them Thank you Jimmy

I had the very distinct pleasure to join two of the loveliest ladies in the Country, Diane and Shirley @ the comedy Club. My first time to one had a blast. I had as much fun watching them laugh as I did anything they are the best ladies to be around. If you ever get a chance to meet them be ready to laugh your self silly. Diane I think the far off look in Shirley's was due to that guy taking off his shirt and flexing his muscle's as to her drinks. I can't remember when I enjoyed myself this much. They are both very witty and funny. I had my first mixed drink in years a Colorado Bulldog was so good I had two. Thank you ladies for letting me join you.

That was my question - and this one did sound pretty strange!!! Those are all great pictures, and Jimmy's description of the night said it all! I'm sure the 3 of you had a most enjoyable time - laughter is always good for the soul, and it sounds like you did plenty! So where are the ladies today I wonder? Sleeping in a bit? Chatting over coffee in the backyard? Or working their fingers to the bone planting in the yard? Youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu Whoooooooooooooo - Diane and Shirley!

I so enjoyed myself out there in the dirt....I love to get down and dirty!! But, when I was through, I was laying flat out on the ground. Diane came out the door and later said she had to look hard because she was afraid something was wrong!! I will always love my little garden here. I broke a lot of fingernails, now I'm going to have to cut them all down. I have a cut on my finger....maybe Cindy needs to sew it up!! and....a blister on one of my toes!!! .....I think I'm tired!!!

WOW - THAT GARDEN IS GORGEOUS!!! GREAT job Shirley! I love all the colors, and varieties of plants! And it's so neat looking too. And look at Shirley with no shoes on - can you tell she just loved being out there getting dirty?!? What is the blue flower? That's not lupine is it? Beautiful! And that Willy is so cute - I was going to ask about him - does he have a name? And I think you might have redeemed begonias in my mind - I have never really liked them, but that one is tooooooooo pretty - both the color and the shape of the flowers - NICE! Can't wait to see what's next when I come back from my errands - you two really know how to put your time together to good use - enjoy what's left!

Sheri quote: Shirley, do you pick up strange men everywhere you go???!!....well, I try my best!!

not to highjack Shirley's thread but want to say that you are so right dodge and JV. They are all heros. Now back to Shirley. I love that you're barefooted. You're my kind of woman and may I say your hair looks great. You have weeds in Kentucky Cindy?

We had lunch and then sat outside and I showed her some of my different camping pictures so she could see where I went and what I did when I lived in CA. Then we looked through a Fairy book I gave her which has wonderful pictures of the fairies and little houses they live in, wonderful 'things' they have, then those 'things' in place inside their houses. It's so beautiful!!! Then we took naps!!! (She's still sleeping...shhhhhhhhh.) But I have a feeling she started her nap after I did.

Shirley's Garden is so pretty! Let her get the "planting a garden" bug out of her system... .....because when she gets here she will be doing the opposite...pulling weeds! WEEDS??!!! I wasn't coming there to pull weeds!!!!
I think I'll stay home!!!!....no..wait...I've already got my ticket!! You know I love you Cindy and that I will pull your weeds if you want, but I know we will enjoy being together whatever we do!!

I'm not sure what's going to be going on tomorrow, Sheri. After Diane gets up, now, we may eat, or not, then go out to the Willy Village. I want Puddin' to meet everyone and I brought my Mr One-foot to meet One-Hand Willy, so they can discuss how they manage getting around and working.
I think we want to go to bed early enough tonight so we can get up early and sit outside in the dark as the birds are waking up. I just love that!!!....even at home in my apartment, they wake me up earrrrrrrly in the morning.

Hey! I thought you told me on the phone you would not be taking a nap! I guess you just couldn't help it with all the "exciting" things you did today. I'm glad you are both having a great time!

Yep, Sheri, all the Willies seem to be traveling a lot, so you should have sent him on a trip to TX too!! Glenda, I simply HAD to come in here and lay down...didn't take long to saw them logs either!!! After the nap we took 'my people' out to the Willy Village to meet Diane's 'people'....and took pictures. Diane the lake and cafe tomorrow sounds very nice to me! :wink: Well we just finished having Diane's pulled pork and pea salad, and some of the graham cracker/applesauce cake. Dwight brought home some Chinese food, and I had an egg roll and some fried rice. (I'm stuffed!

Here is my little Baby Crystal I brought home from the nursery. She's no bigger than a seed packet and loaded with blooms!! Oh...it is a Christmas cactus!! It is an Easter cactus [i](Rhipsalidopsis gaertneri)[/ i] I know I thanked you Bill, before, for correcting me about what this is, but I had not taken the time to go to that site until just now!! Those blooms are beautiful....now I will be even more anxious for all these blooms to open so I can see what mine look like. At least they look like they are going to be really red!!! Thanks again.
