16. OK
1. Whats the weather in your part of the world?

When I woke up it was sunny, but looks like we're about to get clobbered with a heluva storm line. They were actually talking about it on CNN. It's warm though, tank top and shorts weather.

2. What time do you usually wake up?

6 or 6:30...don't always GET up then, but that is when I wake.

3. How long do you spend away from the house on a daily basis or work/school?

!0 hours more or less. I hate it. I'm a homebody.

4. How frequently do you get haircuts?

Once every month and a half probably.

5. Are you punctual?

Usually. Always for work.

6. say something nice about a du'er or about du.

DU is fun; never a dull moment. I like many Duers. And YOU, Miss Lioness, are quite the person; you surprised me immensely some time ago (you know of what I speak). I think you are intelligent, a thinking person, and well, obviously, um, well, hot. :evilgrin:

It is what I think

Re the warm rain...I like it too, but this storm is coming in cold and hard. I guess it's the remnants of a front. Just turned black as night here. Thunder now.

19. My answers
1. Whats the weather in your part of the world? Today it's overcast and chilly; we had a rain/snow mix yesterday and are expecting that again tomorrow. I live in Michigan and, despite weeks like this, I love our weather and the fact that we have four seasons.

2. What time do you usually wake up? I wake up like clockwork at 4 a.m. every day but can usually fall back asleep to then get up at 6:30. I'm a chronic insomniac who wakes up several times during the night.

3. How long do you spend away from the house on a daily basis or work/school? I'm supposed to work an 8 hour day but it's usually more like 9 or 10. During our pledge drive I worked 94 hours in one week.

4. How frequently do you get haircuts? About every three months.

5. Are you punctual? Yes, irritatingly so to most who know me.

6. say something nice about a du'er or about du. My favorite DUer is my sister, LisaM, who introduced me to this place but I am slowly making some friends here in the Lounge, including you! DU has some of the funniest and also most compassionate people I've ever come across.

31. a few more answers...
1. Whats the weather in your part of the world?
Today is typically 'springish'; 50 degrees, alternately sunny and cloudy, and we had a nice rain overnight

2. What time do you usually wake up?
it depends... during the week, no later than 7am... on weekends, it's whenever Oktoberain tells me to

3. How long do you spend away from the house on a daily basis at work/school?
right now, it's just school (and job hunting), so no longer than 4 hours-ish... once i'm working again, it'll be 12 or so

4. How frequently do you get haircuts?
If it was just up to me, it would be monthly... but right now, Oktoberain has me on a 'growing cycle', so maybe twice a year

5. Are you punctual?
either punctual or early as a rule...

6. say something nice about a du'er or about du.
Yes, there are squabbles here and there, but it's nice to have found such an awesome online 'family'...
yay for the DUniverse!

49. it's similar with us...
i get up whenever it's requested that i make breakfast, or when Toby (our seriously melodramatic golden retriever) starts that whiny-whistle noise in the living room, telling us that it's time for him to go out.

Otherwise, it would be 2pm, and i'd still be hunkered down in the blankets.

66. I love your questions
You always think of some good ones and it's a nice way to get to know things about other DU'ers.

1. Whats the weather in your part of the world? Cool and windy this morning but sunny.

2. What time do you usually wake up? When I'm working, 3:20 am. When I'm not, like now, about 7.

3. How long do you spend away from the house on a daily basis or work/school? When I'm working, 14 to 16 hours. Right now, only about 5 or 6.

4. How frequently do you get haircuts? I haven't had a haircut in about 6 years, I just trim the ends every once in a while. My hair's down to my butt - it's kind of a pain but looks neat.

5. Are you punctual? Extremely - I hate lateness.

6. say something nice about a du'er or about du. DU is my sanctuary, I come here to relax. :hi:

68. Here you go!
:hi: :D

1. Whats the weather in your part of the world? Cold and cloudy this morning; now it's sunny, blustery, and cool.

2. What time do you usually wake up? If I wake up without an alarm clock, usually between 7 AM and 9 AM. With an alarm clock (which is every workday), 6 AM. :( I'm a night owl who has had to adjust over the years to accommodate my work schedule, and it's hell.

3. How long do you spend away from the house on a daily basis or work/school? From the time I drive in to work until the time I return home, between 10 and 12 hours. :(

4. How frequently do you get haircuts? About every five to six weeks.

5. Are you punctual? Usually, unless something unforeseen prevents it. I'm never very early, but I'm usually right on time.

6. say something nice about a du'er or about du. You're a real sweetie, lioness! :hi: :hug: And I've met many great people on DU, especially in the Lounge. ;)

70. It's Thursday already?
1. Whats the weather in your part of the world?

Really windy, right now. Gusts to 50 mph, I'm guessing (I spent a lot of time near the sea, waiting to go and get under it, and on hurricane=prone islands, so my internal wind gauge is pretty accurate :D ).

Actually, the Web tells me that it's cloudy (it was sunny at 7 AM, when I first woke up, and the wind that's been blowing had faded to nothing), 51°F (crazy...coolest it's been in a LONG time), and that the wind's 28 mph gusting to 36 (bleh...they always underestimate the wind here, just as they do the temperature).

2. What time do you usually wake up?

Highly variable. Sometimes I won't sleep for days on end and sometimes I'll go to sleep after sunrise and wake up in the early afternoon. That was worse when I worked night but for the past few months I've worked mainly days, and tend to wake up somewhere around 9 AM no matter what time I go to sleep.

Today I woke up some time before 7 AM because some idiots decided to use a jackhammer on the parking lot at that time. I just woke up again at noon, after falling asleep again a couple of hours before.

3. How long do you spend away from the house on a daily basis or work/school?

These days I usually work four or rive hours and it wipes me out so effectively that it's fairly rare I spend much more time out (running errands, accompanying my work partner on bar/club/casino expeditions, etc) on a day when I work. Sometimes I'll work longer, but rarely more than six hours a day (the prep time takes a while, too).

4. How frequently do you get haircuts?

More than I used to, but still infrequently. My job requires fairly long hair, as did my wishes before I started doing this. Sometime early last year I started cutting my own hair and found it worked better for the Elvis thing than going to a professional.

5. Are you punctual?

Tend to be, but rarely early. Actually, my natural tendency is to be on time, but my wife was so chronically late to every single thing throughout our marriage (I seemed to spend most of our marriage waiting for her, and pacing, and waiting some more, and fretting about how late we were, and missing things, and then waiting for things again) that I got entrained in that and I am usually at least a few minutes late to things even now that I'm responsible for my own time again. At the very least, I do things at the last minute, but that's always been my way in many things...I seem to benefit from the pressure and adrenaline. :D

6. say something nice about a du'er or about du.

DU and certain DUers have more than a few times put me in an Uzi frame of mind, but I've met and come to know some wonderful people through this forum. I wouldn't trade that, or them, for anything or anyone. :hug:

72. Good thursday afternoon to you, lioness.
1. Cool, overcast with occasional brief sprinkles. It's the Pacific Northwest...
2. 6am. I usually beat my alarm clock by a good fifteen minutes. (See NewWaveChick1981's thread about early risers for more.)
3. Between 9 and 12 hours, usually.
4. Once a month, usually. Don't have much hair, but I want to keep what's left nice and neat.
5. Very. I've been told I'm almost "disgustingly punctual." It annoys my wife, who spent her life before marrying me perpetually showing up fifteen minutes "fashionably late."
6. DU-ers aren't smarter than non-DU-ers, but......okay, well...yes they are! B-)

73. Thursday evening answers.
1.) Rainy
2.) 9am
3.) All day on work days. Virtually none on days off.
4.) About as rarely as I can get away with. This month will be two times in a month only because the first stylist did such a awful job.
5.) Yes, always. I consider lateness to be an nearly-unforgivable fault.
6.) lionnesspriyanka always posts thoughtful answers to her questions.
