Now I'm hungry. Holding off eating till supper, though, because of a group event at a highly touted place down the road (very near the just-mentioned chicken place, as it happens) that I've been to only once. The owner/cook is esteemed for being able to cook just about anything imaginable you might ask for, from vegan to meat-intensive, & in accordance with any number of national cuisines. She's Venezuelan, & that'll be tonight's cuisine.
WHich means I'll be meeting a couple of dozen FB friends for the first time. Too bad I can't drink, considering that despite my online persona I'm hellaciously shy & ill at ease in social settings. Might should take a Hydrocodone ahead of time to cut the anxiety, for chrissakes.
(I'm not exactly a druggie, mind. I got a new bottle of Hydrocodone last month after telling the nurse practitioner I occasionally needed it, like maybe 3 or 4 times a year, for abdominal pain during Crohn's flare-ups, which is the god's truth. Thing is, I still should've had about 10 or 12 tablets from my last two scrips, dating back to something like 2005 [after, I think, a root canal] & 2009 [maybe for something else dental]; it's not like I take them except in dire circumstances. I swear to god, though, at some point over the last few months my little stash disappared, & when I really needed a couple not too long ago I just had to suffer for a couple of days, since OTC acetaminophen &/or ibuporofen have no noticeable effect when things get bad.
(I swear the cats must've taken, & probably sold, them.)

The only fast-food catfish I've seen is fillets. Nugget isn't really a good description, I guess, but I've seen it used. They look like really thin and curly chicken strips and there is virtually no fish. The best fried catfish (which I much prefer to grilled/blackened) I've had is from Chicken Express. Huge fillets, perfect breading and (amazingly considering the rest of their menu) not greasy. Well it seems if I'm ever trapped again into eating Chicken Express I can try the fish. Cause if that's what they call good fried chicken, I'd be better off with McNuggets.

Yeah, it's a chain. I have no idea how the catfish is so good. I like their other stuff fine, but it's pretty typical fast-food fare.

Sorry about the alcohol handicap Dan. I know it helps me in social situations Id rather not be in. Particularly the last time when my boss dragged me and a coworker (our DD) out with his boss to Coyote Ugly. Not enough alcohol fast enough made that place not tedious. Besides the fact that both of them two are the obnoxious drinkers that have a reason to go to places like that when not chained to their spouses. Mine? Hell she likes the place better than I do. And I don't mind going with her to those kinds of places cause she's like an attention buffer and I get left alone to do what I do at places that serve alcohol; drink.

Sorry about the alcohol handicap Dan. I know it helps me in social situations Id rather not be in. Alcohol would definitely be helpful for me in situations like this (though compared to a friend of mine with genuine [seems to me; he's not been diagnosed or anything] Social Anxiety Disorder I'm the stereotypical life of the party). As I noted just now in updating my previous post on the matter, if need be I'll have Hydrocodone. Shouldn't come to that, but it's been a loooong time since I interacted IRL in any sort of social setting with anyone I don't already know. Online is infinitely easier, needless to say.

(I swear the cats must've taken, & probably sold, them.) I just saw a scene in my head of several cats smuggling some pill bottles out of the house and meeting a Doberman in an alley where they exchanged your drugs for catnip. Then they all hide in your closet each with a spoon passing a lighter around. There's passed out cats with needles and tourniquets laying on the closet floor.

Take away the needles & tourniquets & closet, & that's a typical scene here -- passed-out cats all over the place.

I do not care for your attempts to besmirch Gang of 5, Dan.

I do not care for your attempts to besmirch Gang of 5, Dan. Gang of 5 would take up for themselves if ... uh ... they could remember their password. Last time ... t hey ... tried to recover it stupid ProBoards wouldn't acknowledge what is most definitely ... their ... email. ProBoards is obviously anti-feline. Something must be done.

I was looking at the wiki of STNG and submit to you that season 1 is stronger than season 2 . Although season 2 introduces the Borg. cosigned

Huge fillets, perfect breading and (amazingly considering the rest of their menu) not greasy. Yeah, I've seen "catfish nuggets" promoted in ads & on signs. Not sure what they are, & not willing to explore. Chicken Express presumably is a chain; we don't have it/them around here. Come to think of it, I've seen several glowing FB mentions of the catfish at a fried-chicken fast-food(ish) (I gather; never been there) place about 4 miles down the road from me. I'll have to check it out sometime. They sell them at the discount grocery store out here. It's just filet trimmings. The fatty thin end pieces. Pretty good actually.

The battle against ISIS is shaping up to be another huge war with several countries now pledging to tackle the threat in a serious campaign. I remember somebody saying the road ahead would be 'long and bloody' after the 9/11 terror attacks and it has been. In fact, when I think of this century, one of the overall themes which resonate is that of terrorism.

Some person or thing called shaxper saw what our stupid daddy posted earlier about passwords & such & reminded daddy & us that he is stupid. Which everybody already knew, particularly us.
Anyway, we're back.
Daddy is still stupid.
He gets more stupid every day.
We're going to go lie down now.

I'm so happy the cats have returned.
