Goooood Morniiiiing, DU!

[Clintmax]

:hi: :donut:
Here's to the start of another work day. I hope all you nighthawks had a good night!

[tjwmason]

1. You're working today?

:hug: in sympathy.

Though to be honest I've got so much I should be doing - I'll probably be more busy than when I'm working.

Good morning nonetheless. :hi:

[Clintmax]

3. Hello, TJ!

I procrastinate sometimes too. But, I work in retail, so weekends are our busy days. :hug:

[tjwmason]

5. I've just had some coffee and breakfast

So it's time to get moving - the shower is calling to me (and my hair looks hideous at the moment too).

[Clintmax]

6. Hmmm...

What time is it there anyway?

[tjwmason]

11. Half past eleven.

Plus I smell bad now too.

[Clintmax]

14. 6:30 here in Tallahassee

I thought England was + one day as well.

[tjwmason]

26. We're just ahead by 5 hours

Or more technically you're 5 hours behind us - G.M.T.-5 plus daylight savings (which applies to both of us).

(I know look slightly more like a human being.)

[Clintmax]

28. Hmmm...

That's strange. When Greekspeak and I went to Rome, Italy in March, they were plus one day from Florida and THAT screwed my body clock ALL to hells!

[tjwmason]

30. Italy is on C.E.T. - which is U.K. +1

With a six hour time difference there will be times that we're on different days, but that's just because we're ahead of you.

Hope that you enjoyed Rome - La Città Eterna.

Italy probably ranks as my favourite country once England is excluded.

[Clintmax]

32. OMG! Rome was AWESOME!

I want to go back SO bad! AND to come see England!

[tjwmason]

34. Definitely let me know if you're coming to England

Meeting up for a drink or few in London would be great fun. :D

I think that I could spend every summer for the rest of my life in Italy and not grow bored of it - I won't there's a heck of a load of other places I want to see as well.

[Clintmax]

38. Yeah, me too...

like Australia. Greekspeak has NO desire to go there, but I sure do! Scotland, Greece, Ireland (so I can learn to Riverdance)...

[tjwmason]

42. I tend to enjoy looking at other cultures

I'd love to do India in some detail, plus Cambodia (and probably the rest of Indochina). Also eastern Europe, I studied Russian for a wee while - I love the sound of the language, and much of the culture too.

2. good mornin' ~ Clintmax

I dreamed the night away ...

instead of IMing ...

[Clintmax]

4. Hello, hello Miss Joan!

Me too. But now here we are!

[In_The_Wind]

7. It's lovely to start the day with good friends!

I get lonely when the computer world hits a SNAFU

[Clintmax]

8. Yes it is, and so do I!

I guess something happened earlier, huh? Everyone got kicked off or something?

[In_The_Wind]

9. I didn't know that ...

everyone ... what happened ?

[Clintmax]

12. That's what I read in another thread here...

I don't know. I thought that's what you were talking about when you said a snafu in the computer world.

[In_The_Wind]

18. I put my computer foot in my mouth all the time ...

like yesterday morning, when I started a thread while I was 1/2 asleep ...

do you have the link to that thread ... so I can catch up before I accidentally step on somebody's toes (again) ...

Miss Honeychurch usually PMs me with the links to keep me outta trouble on DU.

[Clintmax]

19. Yeah...it's THIS one...

[In_The_Wind]

23. now I get it ...

my biggest boo-boos usually come after when I haven't lurked long enough to catch up!

[Clintmax]

27. LOL!

I know what ya mean...I usually try to read a couple threads to get the gist of what's been going on overnight and THEN start posting.

[In_The_Wind]

35. fools rush in ...

or so they say ...

I have made some foolish post ...

a few big mistakes ...

sometimes ~ I find 'em before it's too late to edit ...

but there have been some truly horrible mistakes due to my vision problems combined with a brain full of fuzzzzzzzzz


then it is time to back away from the computer saying 'oh well ... what the hell' ... because I have lost one or two DU acquaintances that way ... one in particular very recently - who I always thought of as a friend ...

[Clintmax]

39. Well good lords!

I'm sorry! Was someone taking stuff too seriously?

[In_The_Wind]

43. It was more like ...

sticking their nose in to something they didn't fully understand therefore jumping to a wrong conclusion so they lost a friend ...

I don't care for being dissed which has happened a few times here on DU ... Oh Well.

[Whoa_Nelly]

10. Haven't slept yet....is 3:30 AM here

Am going to son's house in a few to take care of my 3 y.o. granddaughter while son and DIL go to Vegas for the weekend. They're leaving at 5AM, and I am going to sleep as soon as I get over there :boring: That would be me :boring:

[Clintmax]

15. 3:30! Good gods!

I was in deep slumber at 3:30!

[NMMNG]

13. Hi Clint!

[Clintmax]

16. Hi, Buffy!

How's every little thing? :hi:

[NMMNG]

17. I've suffered some real unpleasantness recently

But I'm not in NOLA so I can be eternally grateful for that

[Clintmax]

20. I'm sorry!

I hope it all gets better for you! :hug:

[NMMNG]

22. Thanks Clint :-)

It may get better, but if not I'll deal. My coping skills have evolved greatly over the years.

[Clintmax]

25. That's good!

So have mine. We're the lucky ones, you know it?

[ahem]

31. Oh, Buffy!

:hug: :hug: :hug:
I've had some tough times recently, too. I'm sorry things have been bad for you. I hope you feel better soon.
:hug: :hug: :hug:

[NMMNG]

36. Thank you very much

And I hope your bad times come to a swift and pleasant resolution.

[ahem]

21. Morning, Clintmax!

:donut:

I actually slept last night, so I'm enjoying a rare fully alert morning, myself.

[Clintmax]

24. Morning, Ahem!

I'm usually an early riser, so this is MY time of day! Great isn't it?!

[ahem]

29. It's okay so far :)

It's nice to be up today because I get to spend the day with my best gal pal. In a couple of hours we'll be outside a cafe, having some iced coffee. I just can't wait.

Sorry it's a work day for you! Hope you squeeze some fun into it.

:)

[Clintmax]

33. Eeeewwww! Ice coffee!

Good gods! Coffee is supposed to be hot and black! None of this cream and sugar stuff...JUST black!

[ahem]

37. Them's fighting words!

I take my coffee on ice in the most froo-froo fashion possible.

Iced, decaf, soy, carmel macchiatos!
Iced, ff, cafe au lait w/malibu!
etc.

:9 :9 :9

[Clintmax]

40. *shudders*

I just don't get it.

[ahem]

41. Nectar of the gods, my friend. Nectar of the gods.

Just ask Buffy. She shares my passion.

But I drink my tea plain and hot, so I understand your coffee way, too.
