Excellent, CT! I've said it before, not just empty flattery when I say we really do have some stand-up gents in the Army!!
(...though they don't post enough in the music thread!)

Good evening, Army! and, a very Happy Mothers day to all the Mommy's in here.
It will surprise no one that is perhaps my favorite song by blink 182. Do you know how it was written?
I will assume you do not, and you are breathless with anticipation to find out the answer. The three band members went into separate rooms and each of them wrote a part of the song. Mark Hoppus wrote the first verse about...sex. Tom Delonge wrote the second verse about...sex. Travis Barker wrote third about...love. So the three parts were joined together and this was the result. They wrote the chorus together after seeing the parts they had made. The chorus is the part I quoted, and as much as I like it, it is not my favorite. My favorite are the last lines that Travis wrote.
Look to the past, and remember and smile.
And maybe tonight I can breathe for awhile.
I'm not in the scene, I think I'm fallin' asleep,
But then all that it means, is I'll always be dreaming of you.

Mom's flowers bought and planted, ham cooked and sandwiches eaten, beer bought and being drank. 
I'm thinking nap soon. LOL!

Cousin finally showed up, shots and beer passed around on the deck, good times. Lots of memories with her. 
How the hell we ever made it out of college is beyond me....natural wonders of the universe.

That is so true. She ended up heing a nurse and I'm an engineer. Not too shabby. But man!...we could party. She lives in Georgia so I don't get to see her very often. But when we do get together it's a good feeling for me. Just feels comfortable.
Anyhoo....now I'm buzzed.
And doing laundry. 
I'm thinking a trip to her house ALONE for an overnight would do me good. ROADTRIP! I think I'll get right on that. I need to get out more. I gave her all of my cat's food (she has 7 cats!). That felt good too. I'm still grieving. We'll leave it at that. sigh
OH OH OH...she LOVED HHV juice!!! She can't seem to stick with vaping so when she tried Heather's NETS she was really interested. She loved them. She could probably drive to their place. OH OH OH...that would be a GREAT thing....to spend the night with her and make a trip to HHV!
Take from me RJ, just call to see if she'e going to be there, pack and go! The more plans you attach to a road trip, the more you set yourself up for disappointment. Use a tomtom, or whatever (I'm old, i still use a CB and a Rand McNally) and let it roll baby ! 
Good Monday morning to you all!!
And for those still in Sunday, again...

Have a Happy Mom's Day
Man, it sure has been quiet around here this weekend...
Had a great mother's day. This handwritten part at the end of my card made my day.. Hope all the moms here in the army had a great day also.

That's sweet Bridget. I don't get anything from my son since he got out of elementary school when they made those special craft projects. And my Mom had to remind him to tell me Happy Mother's Day. sigh It's tough being a single parent sometimes. On a brighter note, I buy my own gifts on any day I deem special and I magically get exactly what I want! 
I know it has to be tough for the single moms out there. The boys remembered to tell me on their own this morning, but they are older than yours, and they bought gifts with my husband yesterday. On the gift thing, I've been buying my own Christmas for a few years now, birthday too now that I think about it. My husband made a suggestion for a gift, I wrote down the size and brand, and added an item! (jeans and an ipod shuffle)
So this morning I filled up with DF. DF takes the lunch money away from all of the other flavors of juice I have tried to this point (which is not too many, but still...). Tobacco with what, to me, can only be described as a chocolate chip teddy graham. Good but not overpowering throat hit with solid flavor, this is going to be one that I can add to my rotation (once I have enough juice to build a rotation ). Tonight after cooking some risotto for Mother's Day dinner for the wife and kids, I loaded up my sample of PB. To me this one is in a different class than DF. It has a more "in your face" tobacco flavor, with something spicy that I have not yet been able to put a name on. I have seen this described as a choco/tea tobacco, which almost led me to skip this one as I pretty much despise all things tea. I am very glad I didn't skip it over. I like this one more than DF in terms of tobacco-yness, and with the spice in it I can't help but think that this is what Capt Jack Sparrow would have loaded up in his pipe.
More reviews from a n00b to come as I get into the legend and shadow samplers tomorrow. Hopefully in the next day or two I can get an order placed for some larger bottles of a few flavors (and will probably throw in another sampler to get some more of the tobacco goodness to try out).
P.S. I can almost see why people have problems with selling all of their stuff to get their next "fix" as I find myself wandering around the house wondering what we could sell to order mass quantities of PB tonight the more I vape this.

How do you think I'm gonna get along,
Without you when you're gone?
Took me for everything that I had,
And kicked me out on my own!
Are you happy?
Are you satisfied?
How long can you stand the heat?
Out of the doorway the bullets rip,
To the sound of the beat. Look out!

You're going to love those. I ordered the big bottles so they dominate my rotation.
The Mocha Java is another I highly recommend.
So if it is any indication, I have already drained half a tank of Pirate's Booty in the last 5 hours...this is some good stuff. I can only imagine that it would be better the longer it steeped. Will definitely be included in my order (now to hurt the bank account...lol). I just switched over to Legend...will let you all know in the morning about a n00b's first impression of this one.
So, after promising myself one month, I'm not really sure why I decided to make it a month and 2 days for my DF steep time
, but this is one mighty fine dessert tobacco! And, on a Mother's Day note, my mom said today that it's her favorite smelling vape I've had yet. Now I know what you all mean about that chocolate thing its got going on. I've found this just in time because the HA has started to get too sweet for my go-to dessert tobacco vape. I'm pretty sure that Huntsman and Serendipity are still gonna stand for longer stretches at a time. I've fallen hard for the both of them. But what a lovely sweeter something this Dragon's Fire that now graces my REO mini will provide. I've changed my mind about reading loads of the Natural Tobaccos thread just yet; gonna hold off on that until I've tried more NETs without too many other folks' takes on them rattling around in my head. But this sweet treat that I've finally tried is certainly gonna remain in heavy rotation. Thanks for steering me right, Army
