Poll question: Bored and antsy, what should I do?
Edited on Thu Oct-02-03 10:16 PM by populistmom
I need a new book because hubby's watching the Yanks (as usual) and eating cookies or something. I'm here on the computer in my room because I have no new books and nothing to do.
In the meantime tonight, what should I do?

1. Turn on Public TV NOW
There's a great miniseries on this week about the Blues. Tonight, they go to Chicago and look at the fantastic music that came out of that city (Muddy Waters, Bo Diddley, Chess Records, etc.) I'm not even a big blues fan and I find the program fascinating.....

2. Offer some him a 'luvin' spoonful of kisses'
If that doesn't work,

go to www.blackboxvoting.com and download bev harris' new book for free. She is releasing a couple of chapters every day or so.

3. I picked other.
I think you should research a new hobby. There are lots of classes to take, book talks, arts and crafts, collecting, drawing, literature, poetry, social clubs, part-time jobs, etc. Use the Internet, look up college classes, community stuff (theater?), or organize a book club with friends or neighbors. There's cooking, gardening, philosophy, car repair, or bowling. Lots and lots of hobbies and educational stuff that's fun. Start researching. (PS I like painting and writing and taking classes on film studies).

6. I do stuff (taking classes, involvement in various groups, artsy projects)
I just meant at this present moment.
Thanks, though.

4. Multi-task.
Keep one eye on DU, Play some online games. Surf the net for fun, education, entertaining sites (or run old friends names through Google), open a text editor and start the great American novel... you know...whatever.

19. Hey there
So you decided to stay with original Salma?

BTW, there's a little extra. Short Bus tried to hog it all, but I managed to save a couple of pieces for you. :)

20. Thanks, populistmom!
:loveya:

Yep, Classic Salma seems to have won by a nose...well, maybe that's not a nose. But I might rotate them just to keep things off-kilter (I mean, more than usual).

I probably should have included this one, too, though - I'm not sure that NSMA was too fond of that thong, but I thinks she looks just fine in it:

25. Oh no! I've offended populistmom!
Will she send me to my room without any more cheese, or will she simply spank me?
